Aline!” Isabelle looked appalled. “You can’t just go around asking people what it’s like to be a vampire.

Your magic is unbalanced without the soul-meld

Alexia’s books called this end of the vampire life cycle dissanimation. Alexia, who thought the action astoundingly similar to a soufflé going flat, decided at that moment to call it the Grand Collapse.

I took a deep breath and sighed in awe. My proverbial penis had just gotten a serious chubby.

Pretending to care what men think is an art. It takes moments to learn, but lifetimes to master. I’d like to believe I’m an expert.

His ears caught a sweet chiming noise, and a moment later a warm rush fell over his body. How we doing Rhage? Too hot? Butch’s voice. Up close. The cop was in the shower with...

Shiloh had become far too used to it; for all that she paid him no mind, the moment his sharp fangs pierced the skin on the inside of her thigh, her head lolled back against...

You’re cute,” he told her, eyeing her up and down. She was more pale than he was, but it suited her well. Her entire frame was thin, and her face was oval. Her eyes were...

Consider this a one-thousand horsepower divorce, sweetheart

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

His debtors always assumed he’d demand their firstborn. Like I’m fucking Rumpelstiltskin? What would Lothaire do with countless squalling babes? Raise them in a kennel?

I’m going to fight like a queen bitch to stay alive. I give you my word.

Sticks and stones will break your bones, but failure will get you killed.

If I’d had enough breath, I would have screamed, both at the sensation and at the sheer pettiness of the bastard who wouldn’t allow me even a tiny chance of escape.

You had this all planned, didn’t you?’ I accused. ‘Thought you could come in here and seduce me like you do everyone else?’ It wasn’t as if I could be angry, lying atop him as...

With painstaking rumination, the tips of his fingers grazed over my neck, a deafening silence. I didn’t move as his hand paused at the base of my throat. He listened to the arrhythmic beating of...

Right. I can see it now. Merry Christmas, everybody! And by the way, did I tell you I’m a vampire? No need to pass the gravy, just bare your neck-

If you don’t have anything useful to offer, then get out of here and let us wait until hunger weakens Sonya.” And by get out of here, I meant: foolishly think you’re going to leave...

Despite what novels implied, vampirism did not make stalking sexy.

At least, my boobs weren’t showing this time.

Words actually failed me. I felt as dumb as my lounge-less friend in the corner. “You injected me with vampire blood?” My words were said slowly, ensuring that I didn’t get one wrong or accidentally...

Myrnin said softly. “And how is it that you do not understand that HERE, in THIS place, this girl belongs to me, not to you?

I haven’t entirely adjusted to the whole yum, blood, yum aspect of being a vampire. My body wants it, but my head is still like, Ew, that is BLOOD, time to faint.

Veil, you see, if I vas to say something portentous like “zer dark eyes of zer mind” back home in Uberwald, zer would be a sudden crash of thunder,’ said Otto. ‘And if I vas...

Make no mistake, Lucas. You chose Pedro over your fellow Hunters. I’m coming for you and you will pay for your betrayal. I’m coming for everyone in that house and no one will survive.

Still, she stood looking fabulous like a princess should, licking her blood red lips the moment she laid her eyes on the beautiful prince. It was appetite on first sight.

No one stays the same, David. Everything you are is a direct result of something that’s affected you in your past, whether it was horrible or wonderful — no one has the right to destroy...

I never knew what life was until it ran out in a red gush over any lips, my hands!

It you taste nice I may bite!

I figured that, if you do a vampire movie in Hollywood, you’ve made it.

Then his lips were on mine and I lost myself, overwhelmed by the surge of Trey’s emotions as they flooded through me. I kissed him back wanting to forget my fear of being discovered of...

I took a deep breath and slowly blew it out. He won’t hurt me, I silently reminded myself. ‘Never,’ Archer said, shaking his head. ‘I’ll never hurt you again, Skye.

We’re going to need a shitload of steel,” the human muttered.

She swallowed his blood, a dark vintage from some forgotten cellar. She felt like Persephone in Hades, pomegranate seeds bursting against her teeth, juice rolling on her tongue, and the more she had, the more...

After a moment, he found my neck, kissing the nape, his teeth grazing my skin and causingme to make a small noise very much like a whimper. Before I could take another breath, hislips met...

There are two levels of vampirism: one is the regular vampire, which is just like it has always been; and then there’s the super vampires, which are a new breed we’ve created.

This means that I don’t have to run faster than the psychotic-maniac-vampire-cannibal, I just have to run faster than whoever is with me when the psychotic-maniac-vampire-cannibal starts chasing us.

The rarity of what you hold is more powerful than you can imagine. It is a gift for humanity and the most lethal curse to the vampires.

Lothaire:Hate scars. I’m physically flawless–why can’t everyone be? Everywhere Lothaire went, people stopped and stared. Of course, then they usually ran.

Seriously, I ‘ve got to know if I need to protect you from people running with pencils.” ~ Laney

It was real sweet, except that he’d drugged me and ridden me to within an inch of my life, and I was still so high I was paralyzed and mute. But other than that, I...

Are you trying to flirt?

Bonnie, believe in me. I’ll save you.I remember how to fly.

I’m not even going to be able to attend the burial. Humans get upset when vampires burst into flames right next to them.

Aubrey, crouching on a nearby counter, watched me with squinty eyes, apparently pondering why anyone would willingly immerse themselves in water ever, let alone for extended periods of time.

Jewish vampires: Garlic? As a weapon? No its a spice silly human

A line of perspiration slipped down my spine like a waterslide at an unamusement park.

He’ll have to do without me, Jamie thought, not looking back. And then clearly, as if he’d been told, he knew Grenville /could/ do without him. There was somewhere else he had to go now,...

Oliver laughed – actually laughed.”I like this new Claire,” he said. “You should work her this hard all the time, Myrnin. She’s interesting when she’s forthright.”Claire, possessed by the spirit of Eve, shot him the...

I’m your worst damn nightmare, Skeletor. I’m a vampire killer with fangs and a grudge.
