81 " You broke me out of the grasp of a living horror when I thought all hope was gone. You gave me the opportunity to crawl back to life when no one else could."She glances over at me, her eyes shining in the dark. "You're a hero, Penryn, whether you like it or not. "

82 " Obi sits on the cot and ties my ankles together. I'm tempted to make a quip about requiring dinner and a movie before getting so kinky, but I don't. "

83 " I challenge you to come find us.’ ‘This is Penryn Young, Daughter of Man, Killer of Angels." Penryn "

84 " If Michelangelo had seen this in daylight with the sun streaming down from the glass dome, he'd have fallen on his knees and painted 'till he was blind. "
85 " These have to be the worst minions ever. "
86 " At any other time, we would have been sheep in the company of wolves. But now, we have what people might call "presence". "
87 " Those pigeons couldn't take us out if they send their entire chirping flock. "
88 " There’s a softness to Raffe’s look that I’ve never seen before. It’s not that I see naked longing or tender love or anything like that. And if I did, it would just be in my messed-up fantasies.Not that I fantasize about him. "
89 " We must be quite the sight. Raffe in his red mask with his demon wings spread out in all their scythe-edged glory. A scrawny teenage Daughter of Man brandishing an archangel sword. And a little girl stitched-up to look and behave like a nightmare who is clutching a pair of angel wings. "
90 " Your sense of judgement could use a dash of common sense. "
91 " Anybody that ties you to a chair at gunpoint is a bad guy. Do I really need to explain this? "
92 " You're like a little girl demanding answers to questions during a covert operation. Why is the sky blue, daddy? Can I ask that man with the machine gun where the bathroom is? If you don't stay quiet, I'm going to have to dump you. "
93 " Let go," I say into his ear.Raffe holds me tighter like there’s no room for discussion. "
94 " NO!" Raffe grips me as if he can bind my soul to my body. An upside-down view of the doorway shows up in my field of vision. Smoke waft through it. Although the pain obscures Raffe's warmth, I feel the presure of his hug, the rocking of our bodies back and forth as he repeats the word, "No. "
95 " Don't. Talk. About. Her. "
96 " He rakes his fingers through his hair, looking agitated. “Look, I’m sure I could find you a nice little bomb shelter somewhere with two years worth of supplies.” “I’m guessing those are all taken.” “And I’m guessing someone would happily give one up for you, especially if I asked nicely.” He gives me a dry smile. “You could take a little vacation from all this and come out after things settle down. Hole up, wait it out, be safe.” “You’d better be careful. You might be mistaken for someone who’s worried about me.” He shakes his head. “I’m just worried someone might recognize my sword in your hands. If I squirrel you away for a couple of years, then maybe I can save myself the embarrassment "
97 " Don't you know a heartfelt declaration of love when you hear one? "
98 " Someone knocks on the door.Laylah's eyes widen in alarm. Josiah looks like he's just been condemned to hell."It's just my dinner," says Raffe. "

99 " Of course you’re fine.” She keeps walking. “You’re the devil’s bride and these are his creatures.”I slip the blade into the scabbard and put the bear back on top. “I’m not the devil’s bride.”“He carried you out of the fire and is letting you visit us from the dead. Who else would have those privileges except his bride?”She sees me once in a guy’s arms and she has us married already. I wonder what Raffe would think of my mom being his mother-in-law. "
100 " I just got tired of the wetness sticking to me, that’s all. I think I was pretty safe from the threat of your joke being funny. "
