Destiny Quote by Jennifer L. Armentrout
““I couldn't help but think history was on repeat. Here was yet another girl who had fate laid out before her that she never chose, and I knew, when gods were concerned, she could fight that fate all she wanted, but it wouldn't change a damn thing. Her life was on autopilot. And with me involved, that autopilot was set to crash and burn. She didn't need me in her life, and if she knew everything about me, she wouldn't want me there.””
