21 " He’s right,” Levi told her.Harper sniffed at the sentinel. “I don’t believe I asked for a glass of your unimportant opinion.”The guy just smiled. “Knox, can I bite her?”“No.” If anyone would take a bite of that ivory skin, it would be Knox. His demon was in full agreement with that. "

22 " You strike me as someone who prefers it when people are upfront.”It was true that Harper had no time or patience for mind games. “So?”Knox leaned forward, wanting her to see the resolve in his expression. “I want you.”And Harper nearly choked on her steak. When she’d finally swallowed it down with the help of her wine, she shrugged. “Thanks for sharing.”“You want me.” She cast him a glare, but didn’t deny it, which soothed his demon slightly. “But you’re going to fight aren’t you?”Every step of the way. "
23 " Either you’ve got your tampon in too far or something’s bugging you. Which is it? "
24 " You can do better. But…it’s too late for you. I told you before, you belong to me. I won’t let you go. "
25 " How can you be smug? YOU’RE TIED TO A TABLE LIKE A DAMN SACRIFICE! I don’t appreciate your tone. "
26 " What bothers me is that health professionals give fancy names to conditions or learning difficulties that will irritate the patients; like OCD not being in alphabetical order, putting an ‘S’ in ‘lisp,’ and making dyslexia a word that no one can spell. It’s just mean.” Harper "
27 " Yeah,” said Khloë, “but you guys have been doing the hunka-chunka.” Devon’s face scrunched up. “Doing the what?” “You know…Riding the flagpole. Roasting the broomstick. Going deep into the bush. Pounding the punanni pavement. "
28 " I’ve apologized for that a million times.” He inhaled deeply. “I miss you, all right.” “You should. I’m fucking awesome. "
29 " No.” “No?” Knox echoed with disbelief. Evidently, he wasn’t denied things often. Well, Harper did like to introduce people to new experiences. It was more of a calling, really. "
30 " You matter. So much that you’re a vulnerability, a weakness. But I’m keeping you.” Knox framed her face with his hands. “Nothing is more important to me than you. "
31 " I know you’re a dominant control freak who likes to always have his way. "
32 " You know…Riding the flagpole. Roasting the broomstick. Going deep into the bush. Pounding the punanni pavement. "
33 " You’re a tenacious fucker, aren’t you? "
34 " No one can be firmly marked anything, baby. No one’s all good, and no one’s all bad. "
35 " Harper’s brow furrowed. “Why are you even asking me questions? I know you did your research on me.”“I did,” he admitted unrepentantly. “I learned a lot about you. For instance, I learned that you’re responsible for the breakdown of an ex-boyfriend’s bank account—”“Allegedly.”“—that you hacked a human police database and messed up their filing system when your friend was unjustly arrested—”“Hearsay.”“—that you beat up a male demon who hurt your cousin—”“I have an alibi for that.”“—and that you infected an old teacher’s computer with a virus that caused clips of gay porn to pop up on his screen every thirty seconds.”“Closet gays do the strangest things when the pressure gets too much. "
36 " Being around him was like remembering how she’d once studied a little quantum physics – she’d recall that she spent time out of her life on him and just have to ask herself…why? "
37 " You’reamotherfuckingcocksuckingpsychopathicsonofabitch! A "
38 " Since my mind brushed against yours, every instinct I have has told me that you’re mine and I should protect you and bond with you.” Of course he also wanted to fuck her until neither of them could walk. But that had nothing to do with her being his anchor. “You are mine”. "
39 " If you want ‘nice,’ you came to the wrong fucking person. I’m a fully qualified bitch who’ll happily rip you another asshole if you don’t get the fuck out of my office. "
40 " I just think that if someone has a problem with me, well it’s their problem to deal with. Why should I feel bad about it? I’m not responsible for what other people do or don’t feel "
