“This ship is built on secrets; it runs on secrets", he says, tiny droplets of spittle flying from his mouth to my face. "And if you keep asking about them, you'll see how far I'm willing to go to keep mine." ~ Eldest”
“...there are no secrets unless you keep them to yourself, and this was the greatest secret I had ever had to keep in my life so far.”
“The fact that he was willing to sacrifice his own face in order to keep mine from getting bashed in”
“I can still feel them there. His lips on mine. His words in my ear that day."Itsy, say you'll be my girl. My secret. Oh, please say it.”
“How could it be that you could love someone so much and keep it secret from yourself as you woke daily so far from home?”
“I'm an expert at finding out secrets, but keeping them- especially a secret of this magnitude - is something else.”
