“You don't hate it, then?" he asked after a while. "Knowing you're half... Savage?"
"How could I hate what's kept me alive?"

“Peregrine,� Molly said sometime later, when the group had fallen quiet. Talon snored softly with his head in her lap. “Sable made an announcement to us earlier. He told us this place was going to be called Cape Rim. I think we can do better.�
“I know we can,� he said. “What would you call it, Molly?�
“I’ve been thinking about it, and it seems to me we wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for Cinder.�
“Oh . . .,� Marron said. “That’s lovely.�

“She'd been right. It had been easier with her. Perry placed his right hand on hers.
"Are you all right?" he whispered. It wasn't what he wanted to know. Of course she wasn't all right. What he wanted to know was if the together part still mattered to her. Because even though he was confused and sorry and angry, it still mattered to him.
She looked up and nodded, and he knew she agreed. Whatever else came, they'd face it together.”

“Why did you really offer to take me to Bliss?"
"I want to," he said. Even as he spoke, he wasn't sure if he'd told her the truth. It hadn't felt like a want. It felt more like a need.”
