Ephemeral (The Countenance, #1) QUOTES

1 " I’d hate to be responsible for removing one of Ephemeral’s star players from the roster. I’ll stay as far away from Coop as possible.” I dot the sentiment with an impish grin.
“Hello,” a familiar voice booms from behind the counter.
“Cooper!” I jump a little at the sight of him.
Shit. "

2 " Laken, how well do you really know Wesley Paxton?”
“I don’t know Wesley Paxton.” I lift my brows amused. “I know Wesley Parker.”
“Who’s Wesley Parker?”
“Who’s Wesley Paxton?” I cock my head to the side happy to take control of the conversation, albeit lopsided and psychotic. "

3 " His eyes widen as he brings my hand to his lips. “Thank you.” It comes out sad. Cooper smiles with his eyes as if my mental admission was all he would ever have to hear. “I need you safe, and I don’t think you’d be safe with me... His brows depress. “God, Laken, I would rearrange the universe to make you mine, I swear it. "

4 " Wes says I’m a Count.” I watch his reaction, but he doesn’t even blink. Obviously if he knows about Spectators and Fems, he must be in the know of all things Nephilim.
“Noster.” He holds his hand out and I shake it, warm and strong. “Nice to meet you.” It comes out sarcastic, playful at the same time. "

5 " I used to believe in things, in people, in places, and names—concrete forms of life that end at some point in the unknowable future. I used to believe memories were infallible—that they could never collapse around you like a house of cards or burn to cinders before ever touching the ground. "

6 " In the grand scheme of things, you’ll be dead a lot longer than you’ll ever be alive. "

7 " There are some moments you etch into your being, the ones that singe you, leave you emotionally jarred for either good or bad reasons. "

8 " Having Wes back in my life is bliss. We may not be in Kansas anymore, but our love can thrive in any universe at anytime. Trying to suppress love like ours would be like separating water molecules in hopes to dry out the sea—an impossibility too great to fathom. "
