| 31e5087 | Well, the good guys really weren't typical. They really weren't the good guys at all, but if I discovered anything, there was no such thing as white and black. There was a lot of gray in the middle. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 1c744ba | I felt like I needed to crawl under my blankets. And I did for about an hour. My self-pity always had a time limit because I usually got annoyed with myself. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 8f9c150 | Madison rolled her eyes. "I blew a tire." "Wait. I can't hear you. Guys, can you keep it down?" His voice got a little farther away from the mouthpiece. "Maddie's on the phone and she blew something." The room erupted in male laughter. Oh. My. Freaking. God. "Sorry about that, honey. Now, what happened?" her father asked. "You blew a fire?"

"I've never had anything that was my own," he said against my mouth. "Nothing that was ever for just me and no one else. I've never been anyone's first." He kissed me and then lifted his head.

| cdf699c | Then he turned to Seth. "And don't think you and me are okay. It's great you're no longer Ares' little bitch-boy, but you're still a punk-ass. Aiden snickered. "And I hope your jaw really hurts," Apollo added." | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 4fe2f14 | Because you're beautiful, Layla, and while I may say that one word to you a lot, I don't simply toss it around. And I've seen many, many beautiful things. People as beautiful as demons are atrocious. You, by far, shine brighter than any of them. It's more than what's on the outside. It comes from within you. I've seen a lot of things and nothing, nothing, comes close to you. | romance ya | Jennifer L. Armentrout | |
| b7f4253 | All right ... anyone who gets into one of these cars outside is in it for the long haul ...

| 9934821 | Apollo's lips spread into a smile. "Sorry. I'll try to come after dinner next time." The bowl disappeared from his hands, and I wondered where it went. "Well, it's good to see the Scooby gang all in one piece. Warms my heart and all that jazz, but let's get to the point." | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 94f04bc | Instead he was staring at me like he was seconds away from getting up and storming across the bar and telling me I was up past my bedtime. He wouldn't dare. Kyler's eyes narrowed. He would. | j-lynn jennifer-l-armentrout | Jennifer L. Armentrout | |

| 11818df | Nico enjoyed how nervous the Romans acted around him, even though they were older and bigger and more experienced fighters. | Rick Riordan | ||
| 61b4cd5 | We heard the army before we saw it. The noise was like a cannon barrage combined with a football stadium crowd- like every Patriots fan in New England was charging us with bazookas. | percy-jackson | Rick Riordan | |
| 5e7bf0c | So I saved your life, and you repaid me by raising Kronos. That's fair. | Rick Riordan | ||

| 1ee3498 | Leo gestured to the empty core. "The syncopator goes here. It's a multi-access gyro-valve to regulate flow. The dozen glass tubes on the outside? Those are filled with powerful, dangerous stuff. That glowing red one is Lemnos fire from my dad's forges. This murky stuff here? That's water from the River Styx. The stuff in the tubes is going to power the ship, right? Like radioactive rods in a nuclear reactor. But the mix ratio has to be cont.. | Rick Riordan | ||
| efa2e77 | Hey." Leo grinned, which was unnerving in the flames, his teeth like molten silver ingots. "I told you I had a plan. When are you going to trust me? And by the way- I love you guys."

| 6726d07 | Peabody, you never cease to amaze me." "One day I'll tell you about my granny and her five lovers." "Five lovers isn't abnormal for a woman's lifetime." "Not in her lifetime; last month.

| 11ad54b | Who is to say that prayers have any effect? On the other hand, who is to say they don't? I picture the gods, diddling around on Olympus, wallowing in the nectar and ambrosia and the aroma of burning bones and fat, mischievous as a pack of ten-year-olds with a sick cat to play with and a lot of time on their hands. 'Which prayer shall we answer today?' they ask one another. 'Let's cast the dice! Hope for this one, despair for that one, and w.. | Margaret Atwood |
