1 " That means life itself is a fairy tale. Like the characters, we all live and love and search for a happily-ever-after. "
― Gena Showalter , The Darkest Night (Lords of the Underworld, #1)
2 " Sometimes what we want isn't what we need. "
3 " Every night death came, slowly, painfully, and every morning Maddox awoke in bed, knowing he'd have to die again later. That was his greatest curse and his eternal punishment. "
4 " Um i'm happy to sit close to you and everything, but i had no idea you would like it so much,' Paris muttered. "
5 " You are mine, woman, and I am yours. Until you, my life was desolate. I existed, but I didn't truly live. Now I live, even in my death. "
6 " Back off, asshole. I haven't had a woman today, so I'm in no mood for this kind of bullshit. "
7 " Aren’t all fairy tales based in fact? You yourself are supposed to be nothing more than a myth.Pandora’s box is a story parents read to their children at night,” she countered. “That means life itself is afairy tale. Like the characters, we all live and love and search for a happily-ever-after. "
8 " Knock him out, Paris!''Sure. Want me to spew diamonds from my ass while I’m at it? "
9 " Once I learned, I went online and ordered every romance novel I could find. They're fairy tales for grown-ups. "
10 " You wanted to drown in a woman. Here's your chance. Drown in her blood"~Violence(Maddox) "
11 " What's this about?""Finally. Interest," was the only response."If this is one of your tricks..." Like the time Torin had ordered hundreds of blow-up dolls and placed them throughout the fortress, all because Paris had foolishly complained about the lack of female companionship in town. The plastic "ladies" had stared our from every corner, their wide eyes and let-me-suck-you mouths taunting everyone who passed them.Things like that happened when Torin was bored. "
12 " I tried to tell you. You said you didn't care, remember?"A muscle ticked below his eye. "You should have told me anyway.""While you had barbells within your reach? Please. I'm Disease, not Stupid. "
13 " Pale hair fell in waves to his shoulders, framing a face mortal females considered a sensual feast. They didn't know the man was actually a devil in angel's skin. They should have, though. He practically glowed with irreverence, and there was an unholy gleam in his green eyes that proclaimed he would laugh in your face while cutting out your heat. Or laugh in your face while you cut out his heart. "
14 " The lamp tipped over, nailing Kane in the head.Sabin shook his head. The man was a walking disaster Literally. Whenever Kane stepped into a room, things went to hell pretty quickly. Sabin expected the ceiling to cave in any moment. And yea, it had happened before. "
15 " How do you know they are Hunters?" Lucien asked."They had guns and knives strapped to their bodies, and I saw the mark of infinity on one of their wrists." Branding themselves was foolish, if you asked him. Like putting a neon sign around their necks that read 'Shoot here'. "
16 " Bomb', Reyes said, not bothering to look up.'One of ours?' Maddox insisted...'Hardly. I know better than to blow myself up,' Reyes sighed. "
17 " I'll take the cemetery," Kane said. He didn't sound excited. Rather, he sounded resigned. "The club might collapse if I go. "
18 " While Maddox now believed the demon did not want to hurt Ashlyn, he wasn't willing to take a chance. He would talk about flowers and moonbeams - he cringed - if it meant maintaining this delectable inner peace."Is there a way to break your death-curse?" Ashlyn asked. So much for flowers and moon-beams. "
19 " I don’t even know what to say.” Aeron.“I do. Fuck.” Paris. "
20 " He would have been handsome—in a serial-killer kind of way—if not for those tattoos. "
