1 " We're never separating again. Fucking never "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

2 " Being with him makes me feel different. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

3 " I love you, Hsin," he said hoarsely. "I missed you so much."
"I love you, too." Sin's voice was still thick and husky. "I came back for you. Because I wanted to find you, because I wanted to remember you. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

4 " Why did he always have to be the one left behind? Why did he always have to be the one to gather the broken pieces and glue them back together, a mockery of what he'd once been? Why did he always have to suffer through the loss—that gaping, wrenching loss that sucked him up, ripped him apart, and carelessly threw him aside? "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

5 " In that moment, he wanted Sin for Sin—for the quiet of his breath and the unspoken words in his eyes. It was little of physical attraction and everything of emotional. He wanted to just hold Sin without the body needing to be involved other than strong arms and a comforting heartbeat. The reminder of the peace that was so long gone now it felt a lifetime had passed. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

6 " We'll find him." Carhart said firmly.
"How do you know? How can you be so sure?"
"Because you and he are like my wayward fucking children and I refuse to lose one now that I finally got the other back "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

7 " You and he are so protective of each other that you blame yourselves as soon as something happens with the other "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

8 " I'm a motherfucking lothario of humans and robots alike. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

9 " He'd been too late for Sin. He'd been too weak for Lou. He'd been too young for his dad. They'd all lived and loved and fallen, one by one, leaving deeper imprints on his soul each time. He couldn't change their deaths nor could he change that Sin was now in the same category as Lou and his father. People who he would have done anything for, lost to him in situations where that 'anything' had not been enough. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

10 " All those months Boyd had thought only of Sin. All those times he'd leaned on Sin's memory for strength and conviction. All those nights he'd woken in pain and forced himself to keep going because it was what Sin would have wanted...
It hurt to know it may mean nothing. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

11 " Too bad in the Agency’s eyes a person was only truly the hero when they were the villain. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

12 " Emilio quit making exaggerated leering faces at Boyd and opened the door. "Hey sexy," he drawled, grabbing Owen's shirt and hauling him into the apartment. "Boyd is here, so I'll have to teach you about dick sucking another time. Actually, I dunno, maybe he wants to watch."

Owen looked startled while Boyd rolled his eyes.

"I could probably teach you pointers on that one," Boyd drawled to Emilio. "I don't need to watch anything."

Emilio shoved Owen in another step and kicked his door closed as he released what had once been his typical loud, charismatic laugh. "Believe me, baby, I sure as fuck know that," he said with a wink. "But I was talking about pointers for Owen here. I'm no joke at the trade myself."

"Whoa, whoa," Owen said, lifting his hands. "Information to place in the 'deleted' folder and recycled, man. Give a guy some notice." Even so, he didn't seem too bothered by the topic as he immediately perked up when he saw the coffee table. "Oh! Score, is that food? Well, obviously it is. Hey, can I have some?" He was already walking over as he asked.

"Unless Sir Sucks A Lot is sharing his shit, you better back off mine or I'll shoot you in the face," Emilio said as he flipped the locks to his door. "And why the fuck are you here, anyways? "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

13 " The end goal was Boyd, and everyone else could go to hell if they weren't going to help him get to that goal. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

14 " Do you want to fuck off, or do you need a written invitation? "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

15 " It's loud and annoying and sounds ridiculous, anyway."
"Build a bridge."
"What?"
"Get over it. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

16 " You speak of yourself and others who were in your same position as objects."
Boyd's eyebrows ticked up. "Isn't that what I am? I was merchandise there but now I'm back to being a tool. It's nothing but semantics. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

17 " Are you sure you aren’t a porn star?"
Emilio licked his lips and reached up to wipe a damp spot from his cheek.
“Nah. Just a slut. "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

18 " It's because the truth is important. Never let anyone tell you differently, Boyd. Even if it hurts to say, even if it's painful to hear, even if you wish you could run the other way—it's important. It separates the people with integrity from the deceivers. It's what makes a person trustworthy. Somebody to believe in "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

19 " Because in my experience, people who seem especially enamored of my appearance also want something out of me I don't want to give "

― Ais , Fade (In the Company of Shadows, #4)

20 " Never fuck someone you work with. "
