"I'm out of health potions. Retreat! Retreat! Give me some of your health potions! I screamed. 'I don't have any potions. Run, bitch, run, Brody squealed. The red ran out on my health and my assassin was transported, stripped of everything we'd earned, back to the starting camp. 'I'm dead! Fuck, they killed me!"

I am a better person for it, but I still abhor those awful trials."

And if you were stagnant-unchallenged by unpredictable flares-you would never grow capable of shielding yourself from harsher flames. So yes, life was meant to drag you straight through the fire."

"Wars fought over a face like this, he murmured like he was talking to himself, my heart stopped beating and his thumbs moved lightly across my cheeks.

That fantasy is far better than any reality and, you know what? She's right. Men are a pain in the ass and a lot of them are dicks who cause heartbreak. And her, a girl life Faye? Well, she knows she's the kind of girl men like that will chew up and spit out. So she's smart and she's not going to go there."
