Mishell Baker Quotes

You Are Not Going To Lose Me," Said Claybriar. "I Don't Want To Put You Through That."

"Is That A Promise?" I Said, And Then Immediately Realized What I'd Asked. I Held My Hand Up In Front Of His Mouth Even As He Drew Breath To Answer. "No," I Said. "Don't Bind Yourself. Just Do Your Best To Stay Alive; That's Enough For Me."

It Was A Little Dizzying To Realize That He'd Been Willing To Promise Me That He'd Never Leave Me, And That Unlike The Others In My Past He'd Be Bound To That Promise. It Was Tempting, In A Dark Sort Of Way. But I Wouldn't Let Him Do It Any More Than I'd Let Him Chain Himself In The Hold Of A Sinking Ship.
