“You don't regret it?"
She shakes her head, her smile sad, "No."
"Good," I murmur. "Because I've always had a thing for short hair."
"Oh, really?" She laughs as I sway us in a circle.
"It's true. Among other things, of course." I shrug a shoulder. "Short hair. Ocean-blue eyes. Twenty-eight freckles. And"- I pause, examining her with a tilt of my head-"how tall are you?"
She blinks in confusion. "Umm, about five and a half feet?"
"Five and a half feet," I continue evenly. "The terrifying ability to kick a man's ass. Stunning smile. Ridiculously stubborn. Hair like molten silver. Quick to threaten me with a dagger." I smile down at her. "Should I go on?”

Eagerly, she is my undoing.
Her gaze lifts, meeting eyes that are not my own.

Because the beast doesn't get the beauty.”

He inches toward me, head shaking and eyes roaming as though overwhelmed by what he is seeing. "Oh, but you are my undoing. My deliverance. my downfall disguised as a deity." Another slow step. "You are my ruin.”

“You're not just a mission to me. You're not just another enemy for me to find. You're something even more terrifying."
Her voice is little more than a whisper. "And what is that?"
"A need."
We stare at each other, both surprised by the words that pushed their way past my lips. Sunlight is streaming through her hair, making her glow like something far too heavenly for me.
"I thought you had found your courage," she says softly.
I smile slightly. "Maybe I'm fine with being a fool. So long as it's for you.”

“We choke on the ashes of our denial,
clutching at the edges of recklessness
as if it could make us immortal.
We choose the ruinous path,
not out of defiance,
but desperation.
To feel the sting of fire
as it burns down our throats,
to mistake the rush of adrenaline
for vitality,
to pretend that we are alive.
Fear is a sweet poison.
It courses through us
like borrowed electricity,
igniting what little remains
of our spirit.
It makes us feel invincible,
young, whole, until it doesn’t.”
