Rogue (Relentless, #3) QUOTES

1 " He pointed a clawed finger at me. “That one is mine.”
“Sorry, I’m already taken.” I swung the crossbow up and aimed it, earning a laugh from him. He bared his fangs at me.
“You took me by surprise the first time. Do you really think you can hit me in the heart with that thing before I get to –?” Trevor let out an earsplitting shriek and doubled over, clutching at the arrow protruding from his smoking crotch.
“I wasn’t aiming for your heart.” Jordan whistled. “Damn, girl, you do have an evil streak after all.”
“If he can’t walk, he can’t attack. "

2 " Closing my eyes, I lowered the wall around my Mori.
'Are you okay? Did I hurt you?'
'Solmi hurt', it replied, still a little upset.
I almost rolled my eyes. One-track mind. 'Solmi is okay', I assured it. 'Did the glow burn you?'
'No burn'. The demon moved forward a little. 'Again?' It asked eagerly.
'Not yet. Soon.'
I opened my eyes and stared at the pretty little lake as I tried to make sense of it all. For the first time, I left the wall down, and my Mori and I sat quietly together, not joined, but as companions. I sighed in contentment. 'This is nice, demon. I could get used to this.'
It curled up like a happy cat. 'Me too. "

3 " I’m going home. I can’t do this anymore.” “Can’t do what?” he asked, his voice harsh. “Love you,” I said so softly it was little more than a breath. A "

4 " Luck is for the unprepared, and I have trained you too well to rely on anything that fickle."

I began to climb. "Such words of encouragement. You should work for Hallmark. "

5 " I squealed as he swung me up over his shoulder and started striding back toward the waterfront. “Nikolas, put me down, you big lug!” I yelled through my laughter. He patted my backside. “This time my Mori and I are in complete agreement.” “You do know I can zap your warrior ass, right?” I squirmed and he held me tighter. His deep laugh warmed me to my toes. “But you won’t.” “How do you know?” “Because you like me... a lot.” I stopped wriggling and started grinning like a fool. What could I say? He was right.     ~ "

6 " His eyes locked with mine, and my breath caught at the raw longing and hope swirling in their gray depths. “You love me?” he asked hoarsely. Two hot tears ran down my face. “Yes.” His mouth claimed mine with a fierce tenderness that made my heart want to explode in my chest. "

7 " Those Mohiri don’t mess around, especially Nikolas,” Roland said. “That man is downright scary in a fight.” “How’s he been?” Roland made a face. “Imagine a polar bear with a sore tooth. Now imagine sharing a house with one.” “Please, get better soon so he’ll stop growling at everyone, "

8 " Being a warrior is all I’ve ever known, all I ever wanted. I thought I didn’t need anything else. And then I found you, and it was like finding the other half of me that I didn’t know was missing.” His fingers caressed my face as his gaze and words mesmerized me. “You make me whole, Sara.” “My warrior.” I reached for the hand touching my face and laced my fingers with his. “I used to think the empty place in my heart was from losing my dad. But I was wrong. My heart was just waiting for you to come and fill it up.” He "

9 " Sara Grey, you’ve owned my heart from the moment I met you. My body and soul are yours if you’ll have them.” Tears filled my eyes. “Yes, if it means forever with you.” Nikolas "

11 " Before anyone could answer, a furious male bellow came from inside the house. Seconds later, the people in the window parted as Nikolas leapt through it. His eyes swept over the bodies on the lawn as he strode toward me. I couldn’t tell how close he was to a rage, but something told me it wouldn’t take much to push him over the edge. Ignoring our audience, he pulled me into his arms, and the tremors moving through him told me he was on the verge of losing it. My arms went around his neck, and I pulled his face down to mine. “I love you,” I whispered against his lips before I kissed him. His "

12 " I stared at my uncle and faerie friend talking as if it was an everyday occurrence, and I started to understand how Alice had felt down the rabbit hole. "

13 " Nikolas moved suddenly, and I found myself pinned on my back beneath him. The intensity of his gaze made my stomach flutter wildly. “Are you going to run away from me again?” I swallowed hard. “No.” “Then that’s all I want.” “Oh,” I said breathlessly, unable to stop staring at his mouth inches away. “There is one other thing.” He closed the distance between us and his lips found mine again.   * "

14 " At least no one could ever accuse us of being dull,” Jordan quipped. “Besides, Nikolas will be here. How much trouble could we get into?” Everyone but Jordan and I burst out laughing. Chris smirked at Tristan. “You might want to think about sending a unit here for backup.” Tristan nodded. “You may be right.” I "

15 " And you still make me want to tie your ass to a chair to keep you out of trouble.” “Ha, you can try.” He "

16 " Shhh, don’t cry. A gentle wave of warm energy came through the bond at the same time that Nikolas’s fingers closed around mine. Then you better hurry up and get better, because I’m a bit of a basket case right now. His lips twitched slightly at one corner. I’d heal a lot faster if I could hold my mate. He didn’t have to ask me twice. I climbed in beside him and curled against his side with my cheek resting above his heart so I could hear every precious beat. "

17 " I’m pretty sure my linguine was delicious, but it was hard to think of food with Nikolas sitting across from me. His eyes smoldered in the candle light, and I kept catching myself staring at his mouth. "

18 " He broke the kiss and let out a ragged breath. “You were supposed to stay with me.” I smiled at him, barely aware of the rain drenching us. “You didn’t need my help, and someone had to save Chris’s ass. Again.” He "

19 " Heat flooded my face, as well as a few other places, when I looked down at my legs wrapped around Nikolas’s waist like a monkey. I lifted my eyes to his and caught him smiling like a man who was very pleased with himself. His hands slid down my back to cradle my bottom, their heat seeping through my wet jeans. My body grew so warm despite my wet clothes that I was sure there had to be steam coming off me. His "

20 " This is the first time I’ve encountered a vampire and didn’t need a shower or medical attention after. I think my luck is improving.” She looked down at her ruined top and made a face. “I wish my clothes could say the same. Hanging with you is a blast, but it’s murder on my wardrobe.” “Sorry. "
