“Because I am greedy for the sight of you. Because the prospect of facing this war, this loss, without you fills me with fear. Because I find I don鈥檛 want to fight for a future if I can鈥檛 find a way to make a future with you.”

“Don鈥檛 go,鈥� he said, still half asleep.
鈥淚 have to bathe. I smell like a forest fire.鈥�
鈥淵ou smell like wildflowers. You always do. What can I say to make you stay?鈥� His words trailed off into a drowsy mumble as he fell back asleep.
Tell me it鈥檚 more than war and worry that makes you speak those words. Tell me what they would mean if you weren鈥檛 a king and I weren鈥檛 a soldier.”

“What if I say I can't bear to lose you?"
A smile tugged at her lips. "I'd say you're a liar. That claims like that belong to romantic ninnies." She raised her hand and let her fingertips trace the line of his beautiful jaw. He closed his eyes. "We would go on, you and I. If I couldn't be queen, you would find a way to win this battle and save this country. You would make a sheltering place for my people.

“Nikolai's glib demeanor vanished. "I cannot take a wife while I am in this state. I cannot forge a marriage founded on lies."
"Aren't most?"
