Their fingers brushed, sparking heat that lingered even after she pulled away. “To honesty,” he said. She tilted her head. “Honesty doesn’t seem like your strong suit.” His gaze lingered on the deep neckline of her dress before snapping back to her eyes. “Only because most people can’t handle it.”

“You’re not dying. You just took a stupid, heroic bullet. You’ll recover.” “Romantic of me, right?” “Stupidly romantic.” Revik showed up beside us. “We need to move again. They’ll be back. Mira—can he walk?” “I’ll carry him if I have to.” “No need,” Luca rasped. “Just… give me a hand.” And he stood. Wobbling, yes, but standing. Well, that’s the thing about rogues. We run. We fight. We bleed. Yet, somehow… we still keep going.

"He means to save the town. It may cost him everything." Schnell crossed his arms. "Ah. So heroism is still valuable after all." "It always was," Pastor Brooks said. "But the greatest heroism is knowing when to lay down hate. Even righteous hate." The Green Man began to fade, tendrils of green blowing away like leaves on wind. "I will meet him there," he said. "If he stands true." And he was gone. Pastor Brooks stood silent, eyes closed. None of us moved for a long moment.

He said it so casually I wanted to scream. I turned away, mortified beyond belief, pressing both hands to my cheeks to hide the nuclear explosion happening there, “You’re such a jerk.” “I’m honest.” He replied, shrugging, “You walked right into it.” “You lured me into it!” I whipped around, still red-faced, “You manipulated the entire moment like a… Like a dramatic soap villain!” “Not true.” He held up a hand, smirking, “I’m more of a charming antihero.”

she sips her coffee, "and the rest of the night, did it go as you wanted?" I shake my head, "no, it started out okay," I sigh, remembering how he kissed every scar on my body, how he looked at me with such desire, after taking in every single flaw on display. I shrug, "I freaked out and my mind threw me back into hell." I look at her and she shows no emotions so I continue, "Braddock was wonderful, he proved beyond any shadow of doubt to me how he truly feels and just how safe I am with him."

This was a lose-lose situation. If I said I liked it, Sean would think I was greedy and that I was working with Steve. If I said I didn't like it, I would seem fake. Caleb analyzed the situation quickly. 'Say that you're not worthy of it. Make it sound like you're beneath everyone else.' I bit my lower lip and gently shook my head. "It's too valuable." My voice was soft. It carried a hint of humility and fear. "I-I'm just someone who's here to give you children. I'm not worthy of something this precious."

Carefully then, he reached for my hand and pressed the back of it against his cheek. “You fool,” His voice broke. Holding back his tears stubbornly, he spoke to me in a coarse voice, “You reckless woman, you don't get to play hero here.” Overcome by strong, powerful emotions, my lips parted to grin at him. My heartbeat hadn’t relieved the pressure in my chest, but I appreciated the hints of relief and joy it provided me. “Your job is to heal people.” Alan croaked out, “Who’s going to heal me if you’d died?”

“Why are you helping me?” “I just don’t want someone I know dying on the streets.” “Thank you. What’s your name?”? She asked him this time not offended “My name is Leo Fernandez. You? What’s your name?” “My name is Mercy Jackson,” she said, facing the other men while Leo faced another on the right. “Can we be friends when this is over?” She asked eventually “Mmmmh,” He agreed without much hesitation. He attacked the man he was facing fiercely. He did not wait for him to take the offensive side. They say if you want to defeat your enemy, take the first lead

"Liam, this is going to be so draining, I am so tired already, I wish I could just not care for the people here and just leave," "You know you can't do that, you know you can't, that's why we have to fight this, whatever comes in the next couple of days, we will fight it together okay? We are going to get through this and y'all will go back the way you came, and with a hero badge too, because you guys are heroes," Liam said hugging her. "I don't feel anything like a hero right now, I feel more like a loser," "You are not, don't ever think you are a loser okay?"
