power?

power is kissing a man so good you leave him completely unhinged. you leave him dreaming of repeating that kiss in his dreams were he confesses his feelings and she confesses back. he's left hungry, wanting, craving sleep just to hear her voice. power is the kiss being so good you look for her in every room and you become lonely and lose your sense of direction and know your purpose, your real purpose, is her.

Happy International Women’s Day!

He wanted to sit and listen to her talk about books until his ears fell off” -Clockwork Prince

•“I want to be the friend you fall hopelessly in love with. The one you take into your arms and into your bed and into the private world you keep trapped in your head.

•“I want to feel your skin on fire. I want to feel your heart racing next to mine and I want to know it’s racing because of me, because you want me. Because you never,” he says, he breathes, “never want me to stop. I want every second. Every inch of you. I want all of it” -Unravel Me

•“I love you, I whisper. “I love you exactly as you are”-Ignite Me

•“he kisses me, kisses me until time topples over and my head spins into oblivion. It’s a heavy, unbelievable kiss. It’s the kind of kiss that inspires stars to climb into the sky and light up the world. The kind that takes forever and no time at all. His hands are holding my cheeks, and he pulls back just to look me in the eye and his chest is heaving and he says, “I think,” he says, “my heart is going to explode,” and I wish, more than ever, that I knew how to capture moments like these and revisit them forever. Because this. This is everything.” -Ignite Me

You deserve that.” “I have you,” he says, resting his forehead against mine. His eyes shut. “You should have more than me.” “No,” he whispers. He shakes his head. His nose grazes mine. “Yes.”-Ignite Me

•“You are my salvation, Feyre.” -A Court of Mist and Fury

•“He had stayed. And fought for me. Week after week, he’d fought for me, even when I had no reaction, even when I had barely been able to speak or bring myself to care if I lived or died or ate or starved. I couldn’t leave him to his own dark thoughts, his own guilt. He’d shouldered them alone long enough” -A Court of Mist and Fury

•“Am I supposed to deny,” he drawled, but something sparked in those eyes, “that I find you attractive?” “You’ve never said it.” “I’ve told you many times, and quite frequently, how attractive I find you.” -A Court of Mist and Fury

•“Smile again,” he whispered. So I smiled at him, broad and without restraint. “You’re exquisite,” he breathed”. -A Court of Mist and Fury

•“I’m thinking,” he said, following the flick of my tongue over my bottom lip, “that I look at you and feel like I’m dying. Like I can’t breathe. I’m thinking that I want you so badly I can’t concentrate half the time I’m around you, and this room is too small for me to properly bed you. Especially with the wings.” -A Court of Mist and Fury

•”I couldn’t … I couldn’t stop being around you, and loving you, and wanting you. I still can’t stay away.” -A Court of Mist and Fury

•“I wondered if love was too weak a word for what he felt, what he’d done for me. For what I felt for him.” -A Court of Mist and Fury

•“And now I want you to know, Rhysand, that I love you. I want you to know … ” His lips trembled, and I brushed away the tear that escaped down his cheek. “I want you to know,” I whispered, “that I am broken and healing, but every piece of my heart belongs to you”. -A Court of Mist and Fury

•“I missed you. Every second, every breath. Not just this,” he said, shifting his hips for emphasis and dragging a groan from deep in my throat, “but … talking to you. Laughing with you. I missed having you in my bed, but missed having you as my friend even more”. -A Court of Wings and Ruin

•“I’m grateful,” he said after a while, as the camp beneath us stirred in the building light. “To have you at my side. I don’t know if I ever told you that—how grateful I am to have you stand with me”. -A Court of Wings and Ruin

•“I would have waited five hundred more years for you. A thousand years. And if this was all the time we were allowed to have … The wait was worth it”. -A Court of Wings and Ruin

•“I believe that everything happened, exactly the way it had to … so I could find you.” -A Court of Wings and Ruin

•“I told him how I had fallen in love with him—every glance and passed note and croak of laughter he coaxed from me. I told him of everything we’d done, and what it had meant to me, and all that I still wanted to do. All the life still left before us”. -A Court of Wings and Ruin

•“You make me so very happy. My life is happy, and I will never stop being grateful that you are in it.” I looked up to find him not at all ashamed to have tears slipping down his cheeks in public. I brushed a few away before the chill wind could freeze them, and Rhys whispered in my ear, “I will never stop being grateful to have you in my life, either, Feyre darling. And no matter what lies ahead”—a small, joyous smile at that—“we will face it together. Enjoy every moment of it together.” -A Court of Frost and Starlight (A Court of Thorns and Roses)

•“It’s you I love,” he says. “I spent much of my life guarding my heart. I guarded it so well that I could behave as though I didn’t have one at all. Even now, it is a shabby, worm-eaten, and scabrous thing. But it is yours”. -The Queen of Nothing (The Folk of the Air #3)

I wanted to have you all to myself. I was only happy when I was with you. When you were away from me you were still present in my art”. -The Picture of Dorian Gray

•“He was helping. And he was willing to meet a horrible fate in order to keep her alive. He hadn’t left her alone. She hadn’t been alone.” -Heir of Fire (Throne of Glass Book 3)

•”I kept thinking about how you might never know that I missed you with only an ocean between us. But if it was death separating us … I would find you. I don’t care how many rules it would break. Even if I had to get all three keys myself and open a gate, I would find you again. Always.” -Queen of Shadows

But I think … I think that whole time, all those centuries, I was just looking for you.” -Queen of Shadows

She flicked open the top button of his pants. “I’m yours,” he ground out. Another button popped free. “And you love me,” she said. Not a question. “To whatever end,” he breathed.” -Empire of Storms (Throne of Glass Book 5)

•“He was the most beautiful thing she’d ever seen. Hers—he was hers, and— “You are mine,” Rowan breathed, and she felt the claiming in her bones, her soul. “I am yours,” she answered. “And you love me.” Such hope and quiet joy in his eyes, beneath all that fierceness. “To whatever end.” For too long—for too long had he been alone and wandering.

•“You were supposed to be a side effect of the drugs." “I'm not a hallucination," Neil said, nonplussed. “You are a pipe dream," Andrew said”. -All for the Game 03 - The King's Men

•“He straightened and turned to find Andrew had shifted closer. There was nowhere for Neil to stand except up against Andrew, but somehow Neil didn't mind. They'd been apart for seven weeks but Neil keenly remembered why he'd stayed. He remembered this unyielding, unquestioning weight that could hold him and all of his problems up without breaking a sweat. For the first time in months he could finally breathe again. It was such a relief it was frightening; Neil hadn't meant to lean on Andrew so much”. -All for the Game 03 - The King's Men

•“Neil knew his face as well as he knew every iteration of his own. Despite that, something seemed different. Maybe it was the sunlight streaming through the window, making Andrew's pale hair shine brighter and his hazel eyes seem almost gold”. -All for the Game 03 - The King's Men

•”Thank you," he finally said. He couldn't say he meant thanks for all of it: the keys, the trust, the honesty, and the kisses. Hopefully Andrew would figure it out eventually. "You were amazing”. -All for the Game 03 - The King's Men

•“He is half my soul, as the poets say” -The Song of Achilles

•“This, I say. This and this. The way his hair looked in summer sun. His face when he ran. His eyes, solemn as an owl at lessons. This and this and this. So many moments of happiness, crowding forward.” -The Song of Achilles

•“In the crooks of your body I find my religion” -Sappho

•“she imagined loving him would feel like falling in love with darkness, frightening and consuming yet utterly beautiful when the stars came out”. -Caraval

BRIDGERTON — 3.05 "Tick Tock"

I really hope it gets better

I just finished Manacled. For two days I devoured this fic whenever I had a free moment.

I was never a Dramione shipper… Manacled changed that.

I don’t even know what to do now, so I’m just kind of sitting in my room like this. Tell me it gets better?
