Stay back,”I warned. “Stay away from him.” They kept coming. “Stay back!” I yelled. They stopped. Except for one. “Rose,” came a soft voice. “Drop the sword.” My hands shook. I swallowed. “Get away from...

I’m like a fine wine. I get better with age. The best is yet to come.

Hey, Ivashkov! Open up. ” Avery argued. She kept pounding on the door and yelling, and finally, Adrian answered. His hair stuck up at odd angles, and he had dark circles under his eyes. He’d...

Sydney, I’m so happy to see you again. If there’s anything I can do for you, please let me know. And you must be Neil.””Your majesty.” Neil swept her a bow so low that his...

But I think I love you more than ever.

I’m backing down now. I really do love you. That’s why I’m doing this.

‎She didn’t understand what it was like to be filled with a love so strong that it made your chest ache—a love you could only feel and not express. Keeping love buried was a lot...

It was impossible to get the Dimitri and Tasha thing out of my head, but at least packing and getting ready made sure I didn’t devote 100 percent of my brain power to him. More...

God might work on mysterious ways, but hell worked on efficient ones.

There was a lot of apologizing going on, but I realized that was how it was with people you cared about. You forgave each other and moved on.

Good God. Men everywhere.

Simultaneously simple yet infinitely complex.” It sounded like my relationship with Adrian.

Well, that’s the most accurate thing you’ve said so far.”I grabbed the basket and jerked open the car door. Without another word, I stormed off, refusing to look back in case he saw the tears...

I had a standing arrangement with God: I’d agree to believe in Him -barely- as long as He let me sleep in on Sundays.

Did you know,” he said slowly, “That Victor Dashkov is sitting on your bed?””Yeah,” I said. “It was kind of a shock to us too.

I’ve been wanting to do that for a very long time,” I growledVictor smiled through the pain and the blood. “Of course you have. I used to think Belikov was the savage one, but it’s...

Do you want me to call you Celery Stick instead of Cupcake or Honey-Pie? It just doesn’t inspire the same warm and fuzzy feelings.

Moroi shied from the sunlight but as I watched Sydney, I knew without a doubt that humans had been made for the sun.

Damn, you have no idea what I have been through today.””Actually I have a pretty good idea.

He broods a little. Okay … a lot.

All that mattered was that he was Adrian, my Adrian. My match. My partner in crime, in the long battle I’d just signed on for to right the wrongs in the Alchemist and Moroi worlds....

Adrian, you’re a genius.

You’ve asked me out tons of times.””Not really. I’ve made inappropriate suggestions and frequently pushed for nudity. But I’ve never asked you out on a real date.

That makes two of us.

Ho capito che portavi guai non appena ti ho visto. Sei la figlia di Janine Hathaway.””Sono Rose Hathaway” lo corressi, visto che non gradivo di essere associata a mia madre.”Piacere di conoscerti, Rose Hathaway.” Mi...

Um, thanks,” she said. It was nice to see one woman finally immune to that accent. That wasn’t to say Rose wasn’t a sucker for accents. She just preferred hers from the other side of...

L’assenza alimenta la fiamma della passione, Rose. Non voglio che tu mi dia per scontato.

Vladimir did great things—so could she. Besides, they come first, right?””Not always.”I stared. I’d had they come first drilled into me since I was a child. It was what all guardians believed. Only the dhampirs...

A gun. I had been brought down by a gun. It was practically comical. Cheaters, I thought.

Life, unfortunately, doesn’t seem to care what we want.

What’s that?” he asked, when I stood beside him again.”Halos,” I said with a grin. “For heavenly creatures like us.””That might be a stretch.

She might be unarmed, but Rose Hathaway was in possession of many weapons.

Why the hell would I bring you?” she exclaimed. All her anger turned at his presumption. It was a sign of her agitation that she’d sworn.”Because,” he said, face calm, “I can teach you how...

Some things are worth the trouble.

what’s your name?”what?” i asked, squinting at the light.your name.” I reconized Dr. Olendzki peering over me.you know my name.”I want you to tell me.”Rose. Rose Hathaway.”Do you know your birthday?”Of course I do. Why...

Hey, he’s awesome. A little unstable, but awesome. We got along great.” Adrian opened the door to the building we were seeking. “And he’s a badass in his way too. I mean, any other guy...

Está mejor – respondió con remilgo – Afortunadamente, me lo rompió una perra psicótica, y no alguien de la familia.Le di mi mejor sonrisa psicótica. Qué mal. La familia te puede golpear por accidente. Las...

I sighed and gestured toward him. “I’ll take him.” In an undertone, I added, “Don’t let me down, Zmey.

It’s only their fight club, Liss,” I said, having no need for her side of the conversation, “Nothing’s going on. They’re going to talk punches and kicking and other boring stuff.” Well, actually that stuff...

He froze, and for one moment, we stood locked in time. I could feel the silk of his shirt against my skin and the warmth of his body. The lingering scent of the overpriced cologne...

He’d moved toward me again. His hands released mine and moved to my waist, and I noticed I wasn’t the only one breathing heavily. He pulled me to him, bringing our bodies together. The world...

Sorry” I’d probably freaked him out

He loves that you love the car more than he does and thinks it’s awesome you’re getting so good in your defense class. Not that that’s a surprise. You’re always so good at everything, and...

He smiled, and it lit up his whole face.
