she looked up at him, her face so trusting and hopeful and open that he knew she had no idea that he had done unspeakable things that sullied his hands far beyond their scars. such terrible things that it was a sacrilege for his fingers to skin, tainting her with his presence.

Briar, she said, her voice raw from screaming. Her name was Briar.

“Elain had always been gentle and sweet- and I had considered it a different sort of strength. A better strength. To look at the hardness of the world and choose, over and over, to love, to be kind. She had been always so full of light.” A Court of Wings and Ruin

Day Three of Feyre Week - 03/20 First of Her Kind:

“I am High Lady of the Night Court,” I said quietly to them all. Even Eris stopped sneering. His amber eyes widened, something like fear now creeping into them. “There’s no such thing as a High Lady,” one of Lucien’s brothers spat. A faint smile played on my mouth. “There is now.” And it was time for the world to know it.

ACOTAR: Spring Court.

What came out was not what went in.

No one was my master—but I might be master of everything, if I wished. If I dared.

READ ON AO3 Eris and Rhaedyn - Ruthless Tethers, Ravenous Embers Summary: Once, Rhaedyn of Rask was a crown princess, gifted with a power that could bring the world to heel. Now, she was a magic-less assassin, eradicating the wicked to atone for her sins. Despite being chased down by countless ghosts of the past, she narrowly eluded them at every turn. But when she was hunted through the ancient forests of the Autumn Court with nowhere else to hide, its cruel heir came to her rescue, for a price. Forced into an iron-clad bargain with the silver-tongued viper, she had no choice but to serve. One year as Eris Vanserra's personal guard, unable to spill his secrets, ever at his beck and call. His enemies were only deathless gods, conniving high lords, and vicious fae kings. What an easy task indeed.

Quote I: "Eris Vanserra was renowned, for all the wrong reasons. He was cold and cruel, they said. He was heartless and evil, they said. He left an injured female to die and tortured lesser fae for sport, they said. But Rhaedyn knew better than to give rumors too much credit. After all, the entire fae realm believed her a monster. A freak of nature. An abomination."

Quote II: "Rhaedyn wondered if lives in this wretched world were mere candles, perched atop the desk of some all-powerful being, waiting to be extinguished, one by one. Fae or human, god or monster, it was so easy—too easy, to die. This male before her was certainly one such candle, and sadly, she would be the one to extinguish him."

There are those who seek me a lifetime. but never we meet, and those I kiss but who trample me beneath ungrateful feet. At times I seem to favor the clever and the fair, but I bless all those who are brave enough to dare. By large, my ministrations are soft-handed and sweet, but scorned I become a difficult beast to defeat. For though my strikes land a powerful blow, when I kill, I do it slow.

Elain cut in sharply, "I am not a child to be fought over."
