“No,” Jeremy said–said it like a command to a misbehaving dog. Kevin’s words came back to him, words that had filled him with dread, which he’d tried to put out of his mind: If you tell him to submit, he will. Jeremy had been more scared of those words than anything else Jean had thrown his way since the beginning of the summer. “No. You will not do this again. Do you understand?”
“It is a guarantee that I will follow the rules. I need it. I can’t afford to–”
“I said no,” Jeremy growled. And before he could think better of it, he used it: “Jean, submit.”
Jean went silent. Jeremy felt a buzz of electricity with the power of that word. The tone of the room had changed.

Summary
But the pull of his eyes. The desire in his breath. Every longing she’d locked away was pounding at the vault door, demanding release.
They were dying tomorrow anyway.
It's been over ten years since the raid on the Ice Court, and Inej rarely thought of it anymore. And she tried to not think of the boy who'd pulled it off. But Fjerda did not forget. And now Kaz and Inej are reunited once more: awaiting their fate on the gallows in Djerholm. What final words of truth do they have to share with each other?

Summary
“Do you know what you do to me?” Kaz rasped close to her ear, and it sent shivers dancing down her spine. She turned her face towards him.
“Should I stop?” she asked in a whisper.
Or - the one where Inej has sex dreams.

Summary
The ride to the hotel might've been five minutes, might've been five years, it's impossible to tell with the waves of heat rolling over him, each one draggin’ him further under than the last. He can see it hitting Elizabeth too. Can see her shudder with each break, her eyes gleamin’ and locked tight on his.
There's a halo flarin’ bright and gold around her curls where she's backlit against the city night rushing by, making her look like some kind of stained glass work of art installed in a church to worship. He knows it's whatever they're on, can tell from the rainbow edges forming on everything around him, but he can't help laugh a little, helpless and bitter.
She's 'bout as close to sainthood as he is.
