Quote by Maggie Stiefvater
Grace stopped in the door, dimly silhouetted by the dull gray morning light, and looked back at me, at my eyes, my mouth, my hands, in a way that made something inside me knot and unknot unbearably.I didn't think I belonged here in her world, a boy stuck between two lives, dragging the dangers of the wolves with me, but when she said my name, waiting for me to follow, I knew I'd do anything to stay with her.
Summary
This quote portrays a moment of intense emotional connection between the speaker and Grace. Despite feeling like he doesn't belong in her world and carrying the burdens of danger, the look Grace gives him holds a power that deeply affects him. The knotting and unknotting feeling inside him implies both uneasiness and a longing for her. Her summoning him by saying his name creates a sense of devotion and willingness to do whatever it takes to remain by her side.
