"See what?"

"He did."

You can do anything you want, Margaret β anything. But you cannot do it with that man. Do you hear me? Do anything you want but leave Cole Devitt out of it. Or he is dead.
While you may think women find it appealing and romantic to be brusquely dragged into dark rooms by a handsome man, Mr. Stark, you are wrong to think that all of us do.
I love you, Blair.
Why do you not call me any other name but Blair?
No one calls you Blair. I alone own the right to do so. It is rather special in many ways. And it is better than witch.
I'm leaving not because you wish me to. It's because I'd rather have nothing than a piece of that treasure, which is what you're only willing to share. I do not know how I would love you and hate you at the same time, but I promise you I will for the rest of my life.
Come home with me, love, for I am at my wit's end. I did as you said and lived without you. I learned a few things, Mary, but it was an empty struggle. Please, take me back, love.
