I am forever yours, Kitten, in this life or the next.

Cat, you asked me before to find out if those dream -suppression pills had any side effects. I’ve checked with Pathology, and they said you might experience depression, mood swings, irritability, paranoia, and chronic fatigue....

She’s my kitten, and no one else’s.

You can run from the grave, but you can’t hide.

Aside from that, all I heard was enough repetitions of ‘how many chucks could a woodchuck chuck’ to make me want to stake myself.

Shit. I hated her already, and we hadn’t even met.

I looked at her quizzically. “No, why would you think so?” She gave me a knowing smile. “‘Cause he’s never brought a girl here before, child. Not one who didn’t need my help, leastways.” Oh!...

You’re not a woman,” he said finally. “You’re the Grim Reaper with red hair!

You didn’t really think we were done, did you?

Would you mind repeating that? I’m afraid I might have lost my wits altogether and just hallucinated what I’ve longed to hear.

I don’t mind foreigners. God save the queen!” he squeaked and ran.

I think we need to have a little talk, woman to skank.

My father was English. He date-raped my mother so she’s hated English men ever since. You know my boyfriend’s English, and I’m, uh, I’m half-English, which she’s never been real happy about. If she finds...

I have been stabbed, shot, burned, bitten, beaten unconscious too many times to count, and even staked. None of those held a candle to the pain I felt at seeing his mouth on hers.

In this case, it’s a stake. You could always feel around for something more, though. See what comes up.

Just because you don’t know how to do something doesn’t mean it can’t be done.

I am thirsty, and very susceptible to flattery… you could talk me into anything…””So much for fighting the good fight,” I observed dryly. “He’ll have a harem within a week.”Bones watched Juan disappear down the...

Flowers and jewelry worked for most girls as a romantic gesture, but here I was, misty-eyed at watching him show my mother how to stab the shit out of him.

Not gonna happen!” I spat, squeezing him possessively. Three sets of widened eyes fixed on me. That’s when I realized that what I had a firm grip on was no longer his hand.

Winston Gallagher!” I said, recognizing the first ghost I’de met. Then my eyes narrowed & I covered my hand in front of my crotch as I saw Winstons gaze fasten there next. “Don’t even think...
