21 " This is it?” I asked. “This is going to keep away an uber-powerful dream entity? It looks like a prop from The Blair Witch Project.”

“It can’t force her away,” he said. “Nothing can. But it might make her think twice. It’s more of...a repellent.”

“Like citronella?”

He rolled his eyes. “Yes, like citronella. "

25 " Only what?” I asked. I could barely hear my own voice.
He turned his gaze back to me, firm and unflinching. “Only… more human.”
And that was it. All the anger and sorrow vanished. There was nothing in me.
Nothing at all. I was empty.
“Get out,” I said. "

29 " Niphon, standing with a glass of wine, regarded me with curious amusement as I headed straight for him.Considering I usually avoided him if it all possible, my approach undoubtedly astonished him.

But not as much as when I punched him.

I didn’t even need to shape-shift much bulk into my fist. I’d caught him by surprise. The wineglass fell out of his hand, hitting the carpet and spilling its contents like blood. The imp flew backward, hitting Peter’s china cabinet with a crash. Niphon slumped to the floor, eyes wide with shock. I kept coming. Kneeling, I grabbed his designer shirt and jerked him toward me.

“Stay the fuck out of my life, or I will destroy you,” I hissed.

Terror filled his features. “Are you out of your fucking mind? What do you—” Suddenly, the fear disappeared. He started laughing. “He did it, didn’t he? He broke up with you. I didn’t know if he could do it, even after giving him the spiel about how it’d be better for both of you. Oh my. This is lovely. All your so-called charms weren’t enough to—ahh!”

I’d pulled him closer to me, digging my nails into him, and finally, I felt an emotion. Fury. Niphon’s role had been greater than I believed. My face was mere inches from his.

“Remember when you said I was nothing but a backwoods girl from some gritty fishing village? You were right. And I had to survive in gritty circumstances—in situations you’d never be able to handle. And you know what else? I spent most of my childhood gutting fish and other animals.” I ran a finger down his neck. “I can do it for you too. I could slit you from throat to stomach. I could rip you open, and you’d scream for death. You’d wish you weren’t immortal. And I could do it over and over again.”

That wiped the smirk off Niphon’s face. "

31 " Tawny," I barked. My voice held the authority of a drill sergeant. She jumped. "I am NOT making out with you until the end of time. You want to do this, then you've got to work for it. Now, TAKE OFF YOUR CLOTHES."

"Oh," said Hugh. "I've waited ten years to hear you say that to another woman. "

33 " Don't get so upset about people worrying about you. It means they care. If enough of us were like that, there'd be a lot less pain in the world. "
