"I've looked over my shoulder for a decade,' I whisper, 'wondering what it was that was missing in my life. Turns out, all this time, it was you."

"Stay safe. I want to see you again when all this is done."

"I'd gotten someone killed.The price people seem to pay for crossing my path."

"You should have taken me with you," I whisper to him. Then I lean my head against his and begin to cry. In my mind, I make a silent promise to my brother's killer.I will hunt you down. I will scour the streets of Los Angeles for you. Search every street in the Republic if I have to. I will trick you and deceive you, lie, cheat and steal to find you, tempt you out of your hiding place, and chase you until you have nowhere else to run. I make you this promise: your life is mine."

"We've been through too much to turn into strangers"

"Day, the boy from the streets with nothing except the clothes on his back and the earnestness in his eyes, owns my heart."

"Then Day reaches out and touches my hand with his. He encloses it in a handshake. And just like that, I am linked with him again, I feel the pulse of our bond and his- tory and love through our hands, like a wave of magic, the return of a long-lost friend. Of something meant to be. The feeling brings tears to my eyes. Perhaps we can take a step forward together.“Hi,” he says. “I’m Daniel.” “Hi,” I reply. “I’m June."

"Sometimes, the sun sets earlier. Days don’t last forever, you know. But I’ll fight as hard as I can. I can promise you that."

"What a joke! Poor little rich girl's fallen in love with the Republic's most famous criminal."

"I’ve been searching a long time for something I think I lost. I felt like I found something when I saw you back there."
