I kinda feel sorry for Elaine her closest friends in the night court are spies that report back to not only Rhysand but Azriel (the guy she likes). Every woman needs at least one bestie who she knows will keep her secrets no matter what. No offence to the twins I like them but they have a job and that’s not something I can see them refusing to do. I hope Elaine gets more friends outside the inner circle or working for the inner circle. Like lucien for Fayre and Gwen and Emerie for Nesta.
But the one thing that pissed me off in ACOSF is that he basically never stood up for Nesta, his own mate.
“Don’t you fucking talk about Rhys with that tone,” Cassian snarled.
“Though I bet it’s hard to look good,” Amren went on, “when you’re out until the darkest hours of the night, drinking yourself stupid and fucking anything that comes your way.” Feyre whipped her head to the High Lord’s Second. Rhys seemed inclined to agree with Amren. Cassian kept his mouth shut.
Morrigan’s lip curled. Beyond her, Cassian had halted his smooth movements. Dark fire simmered in Morrigan’s eyes. “I knew plenty of people like you once.” Her hand drifted to her abdomen. “You never deserve the benefit of the doubt that good people like him give you.”
“I hate him,” she seethed. “Good. He hates you, too,” Cassian shot back. “Everyone fucking hates you. Is that what you want? Because congratulations, it’s happened.”
“It bothers everyone. Even oh-so-special Rhysand.” His teeth flashed, any semblance of softness gone. “I told you once, and I’ll say it again: don’t take that snide fucking tone when you speak about him.”
“We must head off this potential disaster before we lose the advantage. If we need to manipulate Nesta into scrying, even by using Elain against her, then we’ll do what is necessary.”
His stomach tightened. “I don’t like it.”
“You don’t have to like it,” Amren said. “You just have to shut up and do as you’re told.”
But she forgot about him as she faced Amren, who was watching her with cool distaste.
The words from months ago that Nesta had tried so hard to forget swarmed from the darkest pit of her memory, each one stinging. You have become a pathetic waste of life.
“I’d be careful when you’re fucking her,” Amren added, lips curling in a sneer. “Who knows what she might transform you into when her emotions are high?”
“Cassian.” Rhys said in that voice that was like hell embodied. “Get Nesta out of this city. Right now. Before I fucking kill her.”
We all know that if anyone even dared to say something similar about Feyre around Rhys that he would go feral.
Imagine someone comparing Feyre to Keir beside Rhys.
Imagine someone calling Feyre a waste of life around Rhys.
Imagine someone slut-shaming Feyre around Rhys.
I just really wanted Cassian to stand up for Nesta, as a mate should, but he just stood by and stayed quiet most of the time.
He was not a good mate. I hope he cops on and we don’t get crap like this behaviour in future books.
Cordelia is worried about her mothers age having another child, the silent brothers have put her on bed rest and Sona stated that Alistair has been hovering around her. Everyone is worried for her.
I think Alistair will be the one (hopefully with Thomas) to raise the child. He stated how he regrets not being a better older brother to Cordelia and with his hurt and angry feeling towards his own father I think he will be a kind, loving guardian to the child.
Another reason is that if her mother passes away it could be the catalyst to fully bring James and Cordelia together. To open up to each other and find comfort and love together.
It’s also been a big theme about how home isn’t with her mother for Cordelia anymore it’s with James. As if Cassandra Clare has been planing for Sona to eventually die in the books.
I really hope I am wrong I love Sona as a character.
