655338c | I was sure there were demons more dangerous than Minias, but his owing me a favor sounded like the back door into trouble, not the front door out of the same. | Kim Harrison | ||
c479dda | God, how did I get to this place where my friends sell themselves to keep me alive? | Kim Harrison | ||
926ccaa | You didn't even keep a call-back clause?" Al asked, then waved his hand and answered his own question. "Of course not. You've had the worst upbringing of any demon I've seen." - Al to Rachel" | Kim Harrison | ||
8c274f8 | Depressed, I gazed at the wall behind Ivy. Swell. I was going to have to look at a stuffed mink nailed to the wall all night. | Kim Harrison | ||
39b50cd | Ivy, however, just wanted to get in David's pants. | Kim Harrison | ||
1549cff | I shook my head and settled myself in the bumpy wicker chair. Now, what would be a good segue? So, I hear Jih isn't the only one who's been knocked up.... | Kim Harrison | ||
baf3d29 | Again Al touched me, but this time, his hand was gentle on my shoulder. "And if you're not, it's Ku'Sox. He knows you're too protected here, and you're a threat to him. He's summoning you. He's summoning you to where I can't follow. He's going to try to kill you!" | Kim Harrison | ||
f4b147a | I gotta go," I wheezed. "This is shitty, you know? How do you live like this?" "Rachel!" he cried, but it was too late, (Rachel and Al)" | Kim Harrison | ||
3942552 | Ready, Rachel? I'd like your opinion on the lab that was broken into." His eyes flicked past us to the closed nursery door before coming back to us, his smile fading as he noticed Ceri's tension. I was such a coward. "You want me to look at a crime scene? That's a switch," I said" -- | Kim Harrison | ||
a7b5685 | No," he admitted, and my instincts sang out at his reluctance. "That's across the hall." Crutch swinging, I started for the door, almost pushing Quen out of my way. "Just over there, you say?" I said," | Kim Harrison | ||
c26770f | I was standing in a line, balanced between reality and the ever-after. I could go either way. I wasn't his yet. "One day a week," I said, knees wobbling. "I give you Newt's mark, you give me my name," Al said, then wiggled his fingers as if he needed me to take them to finish the deal. I reached for it, and at the last moment, Al's glove melted away, and I found myself gripping his hand." | Kim Harrison | ||

98f00d2 | Say what?" Jenks blurted out. "You think those moss wipes are coming back?" "I wish," I muttered. "I've got some serious hurt with their name on it." | Kim Harrison | ||
c511c3f | You want to play the winner?" I called out to Ivy, lounging on a chair with her back to the wall as she pretended to read a magazine and watch us without being obvious about it. She'd put herself right in the sun, which told me she'd had a rough morning. She sat in the sun only when she was frustrated." | Kim Harrison | ||
59e391f | Ivy had loved him, too--deeper, on a gut level, with the strength of the past, not like my new love, based on the idea of a future. | Kim Harrison | ||
32dfc8a | We've been out of the closet for about 40 years.' His lips parted. 'Out of the closet?' A grin came over my face. 'Sorry, we came clean, uh, we told them we existed after a virus hiding in tomatoes, a sort of a plague, started killing humans. It dropped their numbers by about a quarter. They were going to find out about us anyway because we weren't dying.' Pierce watched my moving foot and smiled with half his face. 'I've always been of the.. | Kim Harrison | ||
8724a0f | What do you want me to do? Marry you? People grow up! Move away! I'm going to college, not the moon! | Kim Harrison | ||
ff0755f | It wasn't the bent, nasty, yellow laminated four-by-six card everyone else got but a real heavyweight plastic tag embossed with my name. Jenks had one, too, and he was obnoxiously proud of it even though I was the one wearing it, right under mine. It would get me into the morgue when nothing else would. Well, besides being dead. | Kim Harrison | ||
d44abc3 | Tell you what," I said, my eyebrows rising. "You can drive me home if we keep to one topic on the way." "Your father?" he guessed, and I nodded. I was getting used to this deal-with-a-demon business." | Kim Harrison | ||
d6e6291 | The coat was a remnant from his stint at being people-size. I'd gotten his jacket, Ivy had gotten his silk robe, and we'd thrown out his two dozen toothbrushes. | Kim Harrison | ||
8eef757 | Sighing, he rubbed his forehead, leaving a smear of black ash. "I've temporally blocked the collective because I can't answer that many calls at once, but pretty soon, I'm going to be entertaining. Lots and lots of irate, angry demons in my tiny little living room. It will be embarrassing. My reputation will be utterly ruined. I don't have enough chairs," he finished nlightly, turning his lip in and chewing on it. (Al)" | Kim Harrison | ||
99901fc | Ivy?" I called as I went belowdecks, fear winding between my soul and reason when she didn't answer. The silence ate away at my hope like bitter acid, drop by drop, breath by breath." | Kim Harrison | ||
e05900e | I'm giving you fair warning, Mr. Cormel. If you bespell Rachel, I'll open up your head for the sunshine to come in." - Jenks" | Kim Harrison | ||
9576afd | Life ended, a soul to save," Grace said mournfully. "Decisions age-old are made. Is it choice? Is it fate? Forgiveness or hate? When love is what all of us crave." | Kim Harrison | ||
f73da73 | Only three flowers?" he said, clearly thinking that I should have more, and I smiled nervously. I didn't want a bouquet." | Kim Harrison | ||
0548edd | My name is Bis," he said, "and I was kicked off the basilica because I was spitting on the people coming in. Suck-up little Glissando thinks she knows angel dust from dirt and tattled on me." | Kim Harrison | ||
426b051 | I reached to push my hair out of my eyes, finding someone had tied a knot it in. My face screwed up in anger as I realized it was a HAPA knot. Real funny. | Kim Harrison | ||
85594db | Winona!" I said, quashing my first initial panic at finding a horned, tailed, demonic creature smiling at me." | Kim Harrison | ||
4d1c9ab | For all his sourness, he was ruled by his heart. | heart barnabas madison sour rule | Kim Harrison | |
2569933 | Trent gave me a weary look. "Always seeing the best in a person, Ms. Morgan?" "Yeah. Except with you." " | Kim Harrison | ||
86eb069 | They will hurt her just like they hurt you to get it, and I'm not going to let that happen, you dumb little shit. | Kim Harrison | ||
54727c1 | Such a pretty pair you make, like matched horses in my stables. | Kim Harrison | ||
d0ead2a | Easy is tasteless and bland | Kim Harrison | ||
5898077 | Silly little vamp, afraid of her feelings. | Kim Harrison | ||
11110c3 | The shushing of the waves was the heartbeat of the world, ever present, seldom noticed, and linking every moment together from before there was life to now. | Kim Harrison | ||

4c320d9 | By the light coming from the patio, it looked a shade after sunrise. I had to stop waking up at this hour. It was just insane. | Kim Harrison | ||
eee1f52 | Mrs. Allan's face was not the face of the girlbride whom the minister had brought to Avonlea five years before. It had lost some of its bloom and youthful curves, and there were fine, patient lines about eyes and mouth. A tiny grave in that very cemetery accounted for some of them; and some new ones had come during the recent illness, now happily over, of her little son. But Mrs. Allan's dimples were as sweet and sudden as ever, her eyes as.. | sadness maturity | Lucy Maud Montgomery | |
3ec894e | The inflamed sensitivity induced by radicalized democratic theory finally experiences any limit as arbitrary and tyrannical. There are no absolutes; freedom is absolute. Of course the result is that, on the one hand, the argument justifying freedom disappears and, on the other, all beliefs begin to have the attenuated character that was initially supposed to be limited to religious belief. | Allan Bloom | ||
09ef0ee | Jamas te hubiese hecho dano, no podria te quiero" "No puedes obligarle a amarte si ha elegido a otra. Debes dejarle ir. No debes confundir el deseo de dominar y proteger con el amor" "Quise ser lo q no soy y ahora no consigo ser lo que deberia. Soy un monstruo" "Se quien soy, como se atreve a decir que no lo se. Me encanta ser licantropa. Adoro la dulce transformacion y la belleza que me da en medio de la noche. Cuando salgo a cazar, cazo a.. | Annette Curtis Klause | ||
c933762 | A pentagram is burning in your eyes and soft, pale twists of wolfbane squeeze your heart. A grinding pain is writhing in your thighs the crunch of bones proclaims the changes start. | Annette Curtis Klause | ||
9cfe4a3 | They say the first of my kind was Alasdair, a human raised by hawks. She learned the languages of birds and was gifted with their form. | Amelia Atwater-Rhodes | ||
7533c1b | The inherent dangers of youth will never change. Volatile hearts and ill-advised flirtations can hardly be compared to the hatred and slaughter of war. | Amelia Atwater-Rhodes | ||
6032186 | It is a cruel thing to do, to cage such a beautiful, passionate animal as if it was only a dumb beast, but humans do so all too often. They even cage themselves, though their bars are made of society, not of steel. | Amelia Atwater-Rhodes |
