Best interests Quote by Sarah J. Maas
““Tam would gut me if he caught you drinking that.” “Always looking after your best interests,” I said, and pointedly chugged the contents of the glass. It was like a million fireworks exploding inside me, filling my veins with starlight. I laughed aloud, and Lucien groaned. “Human fool,” he hissed. But his glamour had been ripped away. His auburn hair burned like hot metal, and his russet eye smoldered like a bottomless forge. That was what I would capture next. “I’m going to paint you,” I said, and giggled—actually giggled—as the words popped out. “Cauldron boil and fry me,” he muttered, and I laughed again.””

![“What part of 'directly' didn't you understand?" "Same part of 'play well with others' you never understand, O cantankerous one," I muttered. He laughed, surprising me [...] "I'd be a lot less cantankerous if you admitted you wanted to fuck me and we got down to it.” quote by Karen Marie Moning](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/18b/karen-marie-moning-189_quote_what-part-of-directly-didn-t-you-underst_1933551.jpg)
