Gaze Quote by Sarah J. Maas
““Do me a favor, Celaena,” Nox said. The sound of her name startled her. He brought his mouth close to her ear. “Rip Cain’s head off,” he whispered with a wicked grin. Celaena only smiled back at him and nodded. Nox left early that night, slipping out of the castle without a word to anyone.””
