Shadows go in front of you, leading into your future, and trail behind you, leaving a part of you in the past. They are clearest when we are in the light, and disappear when we...

Pretending is another way of lying, and I am so good at both.

Then the other door opened. I wen’t rigid. If I had thought Reth’s was beautiful, it was nothing to this soul. It filled the night with light, dancing and rippling like the reflection on a...

Too true.

Yes. You’re the secret when it’s dark. Dark is safe.

Goodness, I didn’t expect you to be quite this enthusiastic about my advances. If I don’t play hard to get, how will I ever know whether or not you respect me?

I should curl up in a ball and cry. Instead i think about everything in the whole entire world that makes me angry – There is a lot, oh, there is a lot – and...

Faeries and vampires were glittery now? Honestly.

Freedom was a foot away when they turned back to me. The one who kept speaking, a tall vamp with a handsome curly-haired glamour, shook his head. “Sorry.” He bared his fangs in an apologetic...

I closed my eyes. I used to think I was protecting the world, too. But it wasn’t that simple. Nothing was. Who were we to decide that anyone or anything didn’t deserve the spark of...

They’re crystal blue, a shade that shouldn’t exist on the human body, I shade I immediately crave, a shade that makes my heart beat a little bit faster–almost as if I recognize it. I want...

I’m kidding, you idiot. Let’s go.

Sometimes I wanted to take a memory – one perfect memory – curl up in it, and go to sleep.

Mmm. Cupcakes.

I’d use the term ‘suck’ sparingly around me. Don’t want to go planting ideas in my pretty, dead head.”I threw a pillow at her.

Where did you find that one?””I have no idea. I’m a magnet for crazies, I guess.””They must be able to sense a kindred spirit.””Your one to talk. Don’t you have more hordes of the undead...

I wonder what it would be like to be with a boy who blushes when he looks at my skin.

You cannot control faeries. Can. Not. They aren’t logical or rational. They don’t obey the same laws (physical, social, emotional, traffic – you name it) that we do.

Jack might look my age, but he was like a little kid on a sugar high — in need of a good spanking. — Good heavens, that sounded creepy.

Christmas Eve is my favorite… I think the anticipation is more fun than anything else. I kind of lost that. The idea that something – food, traditions, an arbitrary date on the calendar – can...

Plus as she put it, Prince Eric was far too hairy and peach colored for her taste. I always thought he was pretty hott, but then again, I am a mammal.

I’ll be fine. I’m always fine.

You’ll be fine, just some minor burns and hypothermia, which was kind of hard to explain.

Thank you for giving me another chance.””Thank you for deserving one.

The door opens with a rusted jingle, and an animatronic Santa insults my moral virtue three times. Ho, ho, ho.

I chose him. If I chose him, he had to be the right choice. I wouldn’t love him if it weren’t right.

I am so filled with wrong I don’t remember what right is.

You are a headache.

This is the tragedy of knowing my fate: I have seen how it ends, and I will walk right into it, and nothing will change.

Fabulous” Jack said, reaching down and plucking a crimson flower. A small scream sounded from it as he severed the stem. He smiled maliciously, then started stomping with abandon through the beds of blossoms, a...

We change the future with every choice we make,

Tasers are a one-size-fits-all paranormal butt-kicking option. Mine’s pink withrhinestones.

I wash myself clean of guilt, of pain, of fear, of emotion. I am the ocean. I am empty. I am nothing.

I like her. The pixie is going to be my friend. I know it like I know I’m not going to see Mr. Keane today. I will be her friend, while plotting to either betray...

Clinical, brilliantly medical-minded Adam believes in fate. A fate with Fia.

He’d have to be, right?

James is all I have. I chose James. He has to be right. Please let him be right.

If you fail to report within the next 12 hours. you will be terminated. If you attack any humans, you will be terminated. If you attempt to remove the tracking device, you will be terminated....

I don’t want to think about things like normal and safe, things I can’t have.

I changed because of you. I could feel you, worming your way into my heart and soul, shifting things. You’ve no idea how aggravating it is to have to adapt to new feelings and thoughts.

They aren’t evil. They aren’t even really immoral, per se. They’re amoral. They don’t operate on the same level that we do. For a faerie, the only thing that matters is what they want. That’s...

Probably you should stay out of my head. It’s not a friendly place.

I’m still afraid to sleep—too many ghosts peering creeping condemning.

I hate the vamp jobs. They think they’re so suave. It’s not enough for them to slaughter and eat you like a zombie would. No, they want to be all sexy, too. And trust me:...

I am a girl in want of complete destruction.

I don’t dislike them, nor do I like them. I’ve never understood why one must love children simply because they are children. I don’t love people because they are people; in fact, I rarely like...

What’s the point in hating something if you aren’t proactive?

Everyone here is insane. I am the insanest of the insane.

Tell you what. Let me go and I promise not to tell anyone that you aren’t suave.

What do you think? Does this face make me look fat?
