A world that moved more slowly and told stories.
The water lies. ~ Renee Ahdieh

Shahrzad smiled knowingly. ~ Renee Ahdieh

Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
You are a disaster. You flinch at the slightest noise, and you nearly ripped that poor boy's head off for dropping his sword."

Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Two stubborn lovers, protecting each other from the very same threat. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
In the past, I used to think real love was anti-capitalistic.
I believed love, as the modern world understood it, was an endless siege fueled by the impossibility of healthy co-dependence.
One person always gave. One person always took.
Selflessness and selfishness.
I was wrong.
Real love is unto itself. For every person, it's different, and no one can presume to explain its complexity using mere words.
For me, love comes down to the moments of pure, unadulterated happiness in your life. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Caring about him meant he had real power over her. That he held sway over her heart. ~ Renee Ahdieh

Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh

Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
She rose onto her knees. Let her arms spread wide in the wind. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
But Mariko knew it was time to do more. Time to be more.
She would not die a coward. Mariko was the daughter of
a samurai. The sister of the Dragon of Kai. But more than that, she still held power over her decisions. For at least this one last day. She would face her enemy. And die with honor. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Every day, I think I am going to be surprised by how remarkable you are, but I am not. Because this is what it means to be you. It means knowing ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
But you do laugh too loud. And I hope you never stop." Despina ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
It was because they were two parts of a whole. He did not belong to her. And she did not belong to him. It was never about belonging to someone. It was about belonging together. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Because at that moment, with the press of Rahim's lips to hers, with the touch of his tongue sending wildfire through her veins, she knew she would always be home here.

And that her heart would never be lonely again. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
What are you doing to me, you plague of a girl?" he whispered.

Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Are you finally starting to breathe in a normal fashion?" Shahrzad teased. "I must confess I find your behavior rather odd, considering you said only a child would be afraid to fly."
"I wasn't afraid." Khalid wrapped a forearm of corded muscle around her. She slanted a disbelieving look his way. "You just lied to me."
"I wasn't afraid," he repeated. "I was terrified. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Be as swift as the wind. As silent as the forest. As fierce as the fire. As unshakable as the mountain. And you can do anything... ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Then how does one go about making the impossible, possible ? ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
The worst kind of lie - the kind shrouded in good intentions. The kind cowards use to justify their weakness. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Stop being so stubborn!" Her bare feet fell to the onyx floor. "Do not make me beg you. Because I won't. I'll merely lose my temper or cry. And I have always secretly despised those who cry to wheedle their objectives. But if you force me to do it, Khalid Ibn al-Rashid, I will. And I cry beautifully." She crossed her arms and pursed her lips.

A corner of his mouth twitched. "You do not cry beautifully."

"Liar!"

"I'm not lying." He held her gaze. "I rarely lie ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Until nothing at all existed between them.
But shared breaths.
And unspoken promises.
Lies.
And unshakable truth. ~ Renee Ahdieh

For his children, he would move mountains. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
When she wound her fingers in his hair to draw her body against his, he stilled for breath, and she knew, as he knew, that they were lost. Lost forever. In this kiss. This kiss that would change everything. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Shahrzad closed her eyes in defeat and slid her palms to his chest. Then she reached behind him in an embrace of sandalwood and sun. Khalid wrapped both his arms around Shahrzad, and they stood together under the dome of the Grand Portico, with the indecipherable art of love poems giving silent testament. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Everything in life began with an idea. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
A boy who'd thrived in the shadows.
Now he had to live in the light.
To live . . . fiercely.
To fight for every breath. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh

Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh

Loving someone is to lose control ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
It was a quiet taunt...a poisoned glass of wine, meant to intoxicate and exsanguinate. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
It was easy to be good and kind in times of plenty. The trying times were the moments that defined a man.
And love? Love was something that did much to change a person. It brought joy as it brought suffering, and in turn brought about those moments that defined one's character. Love gave life to the lifeless. It was the greatest of all living powers.
But, as with all things, love had a dark side to it. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
The entire time she'd watched him - waited for him to join her, even in death - her features had remained serene. A flame in the mist. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Flustered by the budding understanding of why her sister might have chosen to love this supposed monster, Irsa fumbled for her satchel. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
He was tall and trim, with the build of a young man proficient in warfare. His dark hair was straight and styled in a manner suggesting a desire for order in all things. As she strode onto the dais, she looked up at him, refusing to balk, even in the face of her king. His thick eyebrows raised a fraction. They framed eyes so pale a shade of brown they appeared amber in certain flashes of light, like those of a tiger. His profile was an artist's study in angles, and he remained motionless as he returned her watchful scrutiny. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
My mother used to say that a man who can't appreciate poetry lacks a soul. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
A warmth settled upon her.
All Shahrzad wanted was before her. All Shahrzad needed was within her.
She woke to each dawn with a grateful heart. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Tariq's eyes softened, their colors flickering in the shade. Their bright silver centers blended into rings of darkest ash, with black lashes that fanned against the soft skin of his eyelids. His brow had an air of severity that faded with the ready appearance of his smile. A day-old beard shadowed the square line of his jaw, further accentuating its finely wrought symmetry. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Jalal shook his head and moved toward Khalid. "She is. Please give her a chance to explain."
"Leave," Khalid commanded quietly.
"Don't let your fear and your distrust ruin this."
His uncle took Jalal by the shoulder.
"She loves you!" Jalal continued, his tone heedless. "This is not what it seems. Maybe it began as something else, but I would bet my life on what it is now. She loves you. Please don't fall to hate. You're not your father. You are so much more. She is so much more. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
Understood what it meant to feel at home wherever you were. To feel as though you belonged in any moment, at any place, in any time. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Renee Ahdieh quotes by Renee Ahdieh
What's done is done. But in the future, do better. She ~ Renee Ahdieh
