“You know,' she confessed, 'I've always loved your dimples.'

'I know.' He smirked. 'You were so obvious with your love at first sight.'

'It was not love at first sight.' She huffed. 'I only said I like your dimples at the start.' She dropped her hand from his cheek. 'I didn't even like you. I thought you were terrible.'

'And yet.' He grabbed her hand again and wrapped it around his neck. 'You kept staring.'

Well...' She wrapped her other hand around his neck before sliding her fingers back into his hair. She really loved his hair. 'I might not have liked you, but you were always ridiculously handsome.”

“I'm broken. I like to break things. Sometimes I want to break you.'

'Then break me, Jacks.'

His fingers tensed against her neck. 'For once I want to do the right thing. I can't do this. I can't watch you die again.'

The word again scraped against her like a thorn. 'What do you mean, again?'

'You died, Evangeline.' Jacks pulled her closer until she could feel the ragged rise and fall of his chest as he rasped. 'I held you in my arms as it happened.'

'Jacks... I don't know what you're talking about. I never died.'

'Yes, you did. The night you opened the Valory. The first time you did it, I didn't go with you.' He went silent for a moment and then she heard him think, I couldn't say goodbye.

'It was only you and Chaos,' he whispered. 'As soon as his helm was off, he killed you. I tried to stop him- I tried to save you- but-'

Jacks opened and shut his mouth as if he could barely get the words out. 'I couldn't. When I got there, he had already bitten you- and he'd already taken too much blood. You died as soon as you were in my arms. The only thing I could do was use the stones to turn back time. I was warned that it would cost me something. But I thought it would cost me. I didn't imagine it would take from you.'

I'm sorry, he thought.

'You don't need to be sorry, Jacks.'

'It's my fault,' he gritted out.

'No, it's not. I didn't lose my memories because you turned back time. I lost them because Apollo took them from me.'

Jacks looked murderous for a second. Then just as quickly he shook off her words. 'It doesn't matter. What matters is that you died. And if you die again, I cannot bring you back.'

'So you'd rather live without me?'

'I'd rather you live.'

'I am living, Jacks, and I am not going to die anytime soon.' Evangeline closed her eyes and then she kissed him.”

“Jacks idly stroked her jaw with his fingers. 'I love you,' he said simply. Then his face went abruptly serious. 'I'm never going to let you out of my sight.'

'You say that as if it should be a threat.'

He continued to look at her solemnly.'This isn't just for now, it's for always, Little Fox.'

'I like the sound of always.' She smiled against his fingers and then she reached up to touch his cheek, because now he was smiling, too.

And he loved her.

He loved her.

He loved her.

He loved her.

He loved her so much he'd rewritten history. He'd given up what he had believed was his only chance at love. And now he had finally broken the spell that he never thought he'd escape.”
― Stephanie Garber, A Curse for True Love

“I love you, Jacks.'

He closed his eyes as she said the word love.
She hoped a little harder. She wanted to ask him to look at her, but all that mattered was that he didn't let her go.

'I used to wonder if fate was real,' she said gently. 'I used to fear it meant that I had no real choices. Then I secretly hoped fate was real and that you and I were fated, that by some miraculous chance I was your true love. But now I don't care if fate is real- because I don't need it to decide for me. I don't it to make this choice. I've made my decision, Jacks. It's you. It will always be you, until the end of time. And I'll fight fate or anyone else who tries to tear us apart- including you. You are my choice. You are my love. You are mine. And you are not going to be the end of me, Jacks.'

'I think I already am.' He opened his eyes as they dripped red tears. 'Let me go, Evangeline.'

'Tell me you won't set fire to your heart, and I will let you go.'

'Don't ask me to do that.'

'Then don't ask me to let you go!”
― Stephanie Garber, A Curse for True Love

“Don't cry, my love.' She carefully wiped his tears with her fingers. 'I'm all right.

She gave him a wobbly smile.

His eyes went wide and as blue as a clear sky after a storm.

'How is this...' he trailed off.

It was a little endearing to watch. His sulky mouth gently parted as he seemed to forget how to speak.

'I already told you. You are the love of my life.
You are mine, Jacks of the Hollow. And you're not going to be the end of me.'

'But you were dying.'

'No,' she said, a little embarrassed. 'I just forgot to breathe.”
― Stephanie Garber, A Curse for True Love

“How can I make you understand,' he growled, 'you and I together don't end well. We just end.'

'How can you know that if you haven't even tried?'

'Try?' Jacks laughed and the sound was awful.

'This isn't something you try at, Evangeline.'

...

'This is something that gets one chance to be right or wrong, and if you're wrong, there's no trying again. There is nothing.”
― Stephanie Garber, A Curse for True Love

“Where are we going?' she asked.

A dimple appeared just below a cut on his cheek. 'We can go wherever you want, Little Fox.”
― Stephanie Garber, A Curse for True Love

“I still have one question,' she said.

If the story curse had been capable of breathing, it might have held its breath just then.

It watched as the not-quite-human-boy raised an offended brow. 'You only have one?'

'No- I actually have far more.' She worried her lips between her white teeth.

Something shifted in the not-quite-human's eyes; he looked as if he wanted to take her lip between his teeth as well. 'You can ask me whatever you want, Little Fox.'

'Splendid!' Her mouth turned up into a sweet smile. 'Tell me about the apples.'

'Next question.'

'You said I could ask whatever I wanted.'

The not-quite-human-boy's eyes turned teasing, sparking with little flecks of silver. 'I didn't say that I would answer.

The girl's mouth fell into a pout.

The not-quite-human reached out with one finger and traced her lower lip. 'It doesn't matter,' he said softly. 'I don't need them anymore.”

“He tried to sacrifice you,' Jacks growled. 'He's a monster.'

'I'm not saying that Apollo was a good person,' Evangeline said. 'I just keep thinking that you've changed, and it makes me feel as if he should get a chance to change as well.'

'I think he's already gotten everything he deserves,' Jacks grumbled. 'And if it wasn't for you, I would never have changed. I wouldn't have been foolish enough to end up stuck in a tree, but I guarantee I deserved something similar.'

“Little Fox!' Jacks lashed his arms against his captors as he screamed and cursed everyone in the cavern. 'Little Fox, I'm sorry.' His tortured voice echoed towards the sky.

The broken sound of it would have made Evangeline cry if she wasn't already. She wanted to tell him not to worry, she wanted to tell him again that it would be all right- but just in cast it wasn't, she called, 'I love you!”

“You told me it would take the life of the person I love the most.'

'It is,' Wolfric replied. 'It's taking you.”
― Stephanie Garber, A Curse for True Love

“So you've decided to sacrifice me?' he asked.

'I would never do that!'

'I know.' His eyes turned teasing, sparking with tiny flecks of silver. 'I've seen what a mess you become when I'm not around.'

“That's not going to work at all,' he muttered.

'Why not?' Evangeline spun around.

...

'Jacks frowned, his lips turning down at the corners. 'I think it will attract too many people.'

She laughed. 'That's the entire point of an inn, silly.'

His frown deepened. Possibly at being called silly.

That made Evangeline smile wider.

Then Jacks was taking hold of the ribbon around her waist and tugging her closer to him. She'd noticed before that he couldn't go very long without touching her. Tucking hair behind her ear, toying with the straps of her gown, coming up behind her and pressing kisses to the back of her neck as he wrapped his cool arms around her and whispered things that often made her blush.

'I don't want anyone here but you,' he murmured. Then in one of his lighting-fast moves, he deftly stole the paintbrush from her fingers.

'What are you doing?' she squeaked as Jacks released her waist and swished the brush across the sign, adding two letters right before the word happily.

'There,' he said smugly, 'it's fixed now.'

Evangeline scowled, as did the little blue dragon who'd been perched happily on the sign. The greeting on the sign, still swinging from Jacks' handiwork, now read:

THE HOLLOW

Inn for Travellers, Adventurers

and Those searching for

UNHappily Ever After.

'No one will come if it says that,' Evangeline said.

'Don't be so pessimistic,' Jacks carelessly dropped the brush back in the bucket. 'People will still come. They'll just be a little cursed if they dare to stay here.'

“Upon Evangeline and Jacks's initial return to the inn, the Hollow had actually been quite frosty. Doors often slammed shut. Windows stuck. Wardrobes refused to open. Faucets yielded only icy water.

'I think it's cross with us,' Jacks had said. 'Give it a few days. It will warm up.'

The walls had rattled then.

'If it doesn't, we'll leave,' Jacks added, tossing a dart up in the air as he spoke. 'We can build a new inn- a better one.'

Jacks caught his dart, then threw it, purposefully missing the board and sinking the dart's sharp tip into the wall instead.

Doors stopped slamming after that. Windows no longer stuck, and wardrobes were more eager to open.

As the days went on, the Hollow became friendlier and friendlier. Fresh flowers started to appear on tables. Evangeline found new logs in the fireplaces every morning at dawn, and whenever she drew a bath, the water was always perfectly warm.

The Hollow wanted them to stay.

“She no longer wanted to sit quietly at the end of a story. She wanted to keep stepping into new ones. She wanted to love, to discover, and to feel. She wanted a life that felt like running through a field of wildflowers and then finding a gate at the end that led into an enchanted unknown. And she wanted to do it all with Jacks by her side.

“I am thankful that we do not all get what we deserve,' she said softly.

“I've cursed a lot of people.' Jacks reeled her in as he spoke, slowly tugging Evangeline towards him and trapping her bloody hand so that it was behind him as he leaned in closer and whispered, 'They don't all become villains, Little Fox.' His lips brushed hers, taunting, teasing.

'Stop trying to distract me,' she murmured.

'I'll never stop trying to distract you,' Jacks playfully nipped her lower lip and then he kissed her, far less playfully.

“Get your hands off her, you son of a bitch!'

Jacks ran across the cavern and punched Apollo in the face. Then he punched him again and again. He punched until he stopped feeling his fist, breaking Apollo's bones. When blood spewed from the prince's nose, Jacks felt it spray his cheek.

It would have been easier just to stab the bastard in the throat. But Jacks needed to hurt him first.

'I will kill you for this!' Jacks rained down more punches on Apollo's face.”
