| 86d3b5c | Newt spun, making her robe unfurl. "He's my familiar, bought and paid for. I can claim anything of his. Even his life." Al cleared his throat nervously. "That's good to know," he said lightly. "Important safety tip. Rachel, write that down somewhere as lesson number one." | Kim Harrison | ||
| 8d7039d | she thought I could find a way to save her soul when she died and became an undead. Right now, I was just looking to find the rent money. I'd get to my roommate's soul later. | Kim Harrison | ||
| f449889 | Looking at everything, I started to feel nauseous, as if the seventies had taken refuge here against extinction and were preparing to take over the world. | Kim Harrison | ||
| 709309f | I felt my shoulders ease at her admission. She was going to do what she had to do, and I was going to do what I had to do. And Ivy? Ivy was going to go insane. | Kim Harrison | ||
| 8ff14ca | Even a superhero needs a place to be normal. | Kim Harrison | ||
| 05a371a | Face it, you little cookie maker," Janks said, almost sounding fond, "In the last couple of days, you've seen what it's like to be in a family, with all the touchy tempers and irritation that goes on. Now you get to see the other side, where we do stupid stuff for each other just because we like you. Rache is the little sister. Ivy's the big sister. I'm the uncle from out of state, and your the rich nephew no one likes but we put up with yo.. | Kim Harrison | ||
| 75ebce6 | I can think of a lot of things to do," he said, "and none of them involve standing up. - Al" | Kim Harrison | ||
| 243c59d | Jenks made a move to follow, probably forgetting he didn't have wings anymore. He leaned forward and fell to the floor, face first. "Jenks!" I shouted when he hit with a dull smack and started swearing." | Kim Harrison | ||
| c9d18b9 | Past him was Trent, a tired look on his face. Holding my borrowed shawl close, I watched Jonathan as I slid out. "Why, thank you, Jon," I said brightly, "you freaking bastard." Trent ducked his head, hiding a smile." | Kim Harrison | ||
| 26c9c03 | Ah, Jenks? It's not a lake, it's a friggin' freshwater ocean. Did you see the size of the tanker going under the bridge when we came into town? The wake from it could tip us. I'm not canoeing it unless your name is Pocahontas. | Kim Harrison | ||
| bd9ec3d | And as far as Piscary is concerned, he can burn in hell--if his soul hadn't already evaporated. | Kim Harrison | ||
| d235eb9 | Can we get back to how we're going to kill Nick? And what's this about a dead body? You'd better start talking quick, Ivy, 'cause I'm not going to play hide-and-seek with a dead guy in my trunk. I did that in college, and I'm not going to do it again." A smile quirked Ivy's mouth. "Really?" she asked, and I flushed." | Kim Harrison | ||
| 223ff20 | I turned back to the mirror, seeing that there were no lines on it. It was empty. "What happened to my mirror?" I said, bewildered. Then realizing that I was looking at the back of the dumb thing, I swore and turned it over." | Kim Harrison | ||
| 98a2544 | Ivy had once said that sharing blood was a way to show deep affection, loyalty, and friendship. I felt that way about her, but what she wanted from me was so far from what I understood that I was afraid. She wanted to share with me something so complex and intangible that the shallow emotional vocabulary of human and witch didn't have the words or cultural background to define it. She was waiting for me to figure it out. And I lumped it all.. | Kim Harrison | ||
| a990d5d | I like walking into a room and seeing your face light up when you see me," he said earnestly, the sun from the open window making his hair glow. "I like arguing with Quen over the wisdom of employing a demon to be my security." My throat caught. This wasn't going to happen, but something in me was withering. I wanted more--and I knew I couldn't have it. He touched my hair, and I twitched as he tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. "I want .. | romance trent-kalamack | Kim Harrison | |
| d7970d9 | This is about Ku'Sox, isn't it," I said, more of a statement than a question. He made a sighing groan, and I knew it was. "Then you've met," he said, his thoughts clearly on the day-walking demon. "Funny, you don't look dead." His hand touched my chin, shifting it so he could see where I'd been pixed, the blisters itchy and red. "I'm surprised you survived the little designer dump. I nearly didn't." | Kim Harrison | ||
| 33bf905 | Hello-o-o-o-o, Nick," I said, hitting thek hard. "You're the world's biggest jerk for what you did to Jax. You ever show your scrawny face in Cincinnati again, and I'm going to shove a broomstick up your ass and set it on fire. You got that?" | Kim Harrison | ||
| 71fd04c | God, it stinks," I said, hand over my nose as he pulled me into a long step. Al strode forward, head high. "It's the stench of bureaucracy, my itchy-witch, and why I chose to go into human resources when but a wee lad." -- | Kim Harrison | ||
| 82c5c15 | I got it this time, Daddy Warbucks," I said," | Kim Harrison | ||
| cbcb66a | Jenks laughed, taking to the air and saying, "Give it up, FIB man. It'll take more than you to get her out. Remember what Ivy and I did to your finest last spring? Add Rachel to that, and you can say your prayers." From behind me came Edden's dry "You think Ivy wants another stint as a candy striper?" | Kim Harrison | ||
| 414ab36 | And Trent," I said, watching Rex since Jenks was preoccupied with a flightless child. "Beloved city son and idiot billionaire goes and gets caught in the ever-after. Who has to bust her butt and make a deal with demons to get him back?" "The one who got him there?" Jenks said, and my eyes narrowed." | Kim Harrison | ||
| ba32e4d | He inclined his head slightly, looking as fabulous as ever, more appealing than before because I had no idea what he was going to do, what he was capable of. "Don't do that," I said, my gaze going everywhere but to him. "Do what?" He sipped from his mug, one long leg draping to the floor, the other pulled up slightly. "Sit on your desk and look sexy." | Kim Harrison | ||
| dd8b446 | Familiars were known for their loose tongues until you cut them out. It was a practice Algaliarept frowned upon. Most of his brethren were bloody plebians. Removing a familiar's tongue completely ruined the nuances of their pleas for mercy. | Kim Harrison | ||
| a941d4f | if I'd been hit with the same thing as Glenn, I probably had his doctor. The thought seemed about right when Glenn shrank back in his chair with a guilty expression. The tomato, too, was in hiding somewhere. I didn't want to know where. I truly didn't. | Kim Harrison | ||
| cfc16c9 | It was starting to smell really good in here. And if I liked what it smelled like, then they were liking what they were smelling, and ah...that would be me. | Kim Harrison | ||
| 9ae0f09 | And I'm not spying! I'm evaluating!" "It's the same difference!" | difference evaluating grace madison spying | Kim Harrison | |
| ef2b413 | Oh. Shit." I breathed, arms shaking as I tried to push myself up, failing. That's okay. It's nice just to lie here." | Kim Harrison | ||
| d9fac4f | Somehow I found him. Somehow I found Al's sarcastic thoughts, bitter and old. Tired, angry, bored. Alone. | Kim Harrison | ||
| 53a9dff | Actually, I am kind of busy right now," I drawled as I settled back into the chair and closed my eyes. "You have to make melanin while the sun shines." | Kim Harrison | ||
| 0060576 | From my ear Jenks snickered. "Awwww, you two are so sweet, I could fart fairy balls." | Kim Harrison | ||
| f2c28f9 | Two thousand miles, Rachel," he said tightly, and I guessed that no, it didn't violate the rules of whatever he was doing out here, because he sure wasn't out here keeping the coven from attacking me. "I have eaten nothing but slop for two days and used facilities I wouldn't let my dogs urinate in. And what about that couple in the RV outside Texas? I'll never get that memory out of my head." - Trent to Rachel" | Kim Harrison | ||
| e427012 | Do you have a sleeping bag?" I stared at him. "No. I lost it in the great salt-dip of '06." | Kim Harrison | ||
| 9494837 | Men," she said as she took my arm and led me to the brightly lit room. "They forget we need to see the outcome of pain before we willingly put ourselves through it. How else would we suffer nine months to have a beautiful child? We already know we have guts." | Kim Harrison | ||
| 58227b1 | A clipboard and a hard hat could get you just about anywhere. | Kim Harrison | ||
| e884c76 | The world was going to change again. I should have worn nicer shoes. | Kim Harrison | ||
| 9ecb962 | He just wanted to hold her to him and tell her it would be okay, that she had survived and was beautiful. | kim harrison | ||
| 772ca3d | Happy endings were never handed out. You had to fight for them, earn them with bruised hearts and sacrifices. | Kim Harrison | ||
| 9985289 | I'm not going anywhere with you, you little shoemaker," I said (Rachel to Trent)" | Kim Harrison | ||
| 8fbb75e | People are motivated by three things, Rachel. Love ..." A red marker clattered in with the rest. "Revenge ..." A black one landed next to it. "And power," she finished, tossing in a green one. "Trent has enough money to buy all three." "You forgot one," I said, wondering if I should just keep my mouth shut. "Family." | Kim Harrison | ||
| 66aae05 | Tink's little pink dildo, Rache! Haven't you gotten rid of those condoms yet? They got a shelf life, you know. | Kim Harrison | ||
| 068e978 | This is a witchocracy, not a democracy. Clear? | Kim Harrison | ||
| 30ac32a | But a pawn could become a queen if she reached the end and came back again. | Kim Harrison | ||
| 63486b8 | and there was only one revolutionary virtue which he had not learned, the virtue of self-deception | Arthur Koestler | ||
| da45658 | What we eventually uncovered was that I was afraid--afraid to ask for what I wanted, afraid to speak up for myself, afraid that I didn't have what it took to do what I really wanted to do. In response to my fears, I blamed other people for what I considered their failure to acknowledge me. The conversation didn't stop there. | Iyanla Vanzant |
