1 " There was always a trail, skin cells, a scent, thermal imaging, parts left behind that the riders called prints. Sometimes those proved helpful when tracking an individual, especially if they were fresh. "
― Christine Feehan , Shadow Warrior (Shadow Riders, #4)
2 " She probably should have been afraid of him, but he brought her such a sense of well-being that fearing him was impossible. "
3 " His smile was warm, impossible to ignore, and did something to her insides, making her feel happy. Happiness wasn't something she was used to feeling and it shocked her a little. "
4 " Already he knew she was the one he wanted, and it had nothing to do with their shadows coming together. "
5 " He didn't want to take over her life, he wanted her to surrender it to him. Invading her privacy was far different than her volunteering to tell him what was going on in her life. "
6 " You know me, gattina, you're just conditioned to think you can't trust anyone. He did that to you. Don't let him interfere with us. You have the right to live your life, Grace. "
7 " He radiated calm, his energy peaceful, surrounding her in a cocoon of tranquility. He made her feel safe, wrapped up in their world together, even though she knew neither of them was. "
8 " He could do that. Make her forget, even if it was just for a few seconds. She couldn't stop the slow nod of assent. Relief swept through her and she put her head back against the seat and closed her eyes. She didn't have to think anymore. "
9 " It had been hard to tell him. Very hard. She'd learned not to trust anyone, but more importantly, she knew not to get close to anyone. "
10 " She found him very hard to resist, and if she was truthful with herself, she wasn't trying that much. "
11 " He'd loved that she'd fought back, that she was no pushover. That wasn't what he wanted in a woman, but maybe it was just what he needed.” "
12 " Justice is served, " he said softly, and stepped into a long shadow. "
13 " Once he was set on a task, once he made up his mind, he was relentless. "
14 " She could be soft and sensitive. He'd provide the armor for her. "
15 " Are you certain she's the one?" Emme whispered. "Do you just know it, Vittorio?" In your soul, where you live, do you just know? "
16 " He'd loved that she'd fought back, that she was no pushover. That wasn't wanted in a woman, but maybe it was just what he needed. "
17 " Her wild imagination immediately interpreted his statement as him claiming her, making her his, letting her know no matter what, he would stand for her. "
18 " She loved to see that smile, the way it transformed his face from rugged, dangerous, very masculine beauty to something much softer and approachable. "
19 " I'd like you to make an effort to share what you're feeling, good or bad, with me. I'll do the same. If we're honest with each other in our communication this will work for us. "
20 " There it was, again, that hurt in his eyes. Maybe hurt. Something. Sadness. That was it. She detested that look. He shouldn't ever feel unhappy. It was more than unhappy. Desolate, as if he was completely alone and she'd taken his last joy from him. "
