1 " Everyone knows, karma’s a bitch. And today her name was Tory Vega. "
― Caroline Peckham , Ruthless Fae (Zodiac Academy, #2)
2 " Whereas you prefer your coffee with a bucket of sugar added because you’re just so damn sweet?” he asked sarcastically as he watched me. “No. I like my sugar with a dash of coffee added because I’m bitter. "
3 " Poor little rich boy, all his pretty things are gone. "
4 " Well I think I’m talking to an oversized iguana with a superiority complex, wrapped in an expensive suit. "
5 " It suits you,” he said. “What does?” I asked. “Smiling. "
6 " But I learned a long time ago that blood doesn't define a person, so I shouldn't have judged you so quickly. "
7 " The distance parting us suddenly felt like too much; the air was racing over my exposed flesh, chilling me to the core. I needed the heat of his hands, the red hot press of his stomach and chest. “Lance,” I breathed and his pupils dilated as I met his gaze. "
8 " I stared at the pitch in utter disbelief. Holy shit, we lost. "
9 " Go on then.” He gestured to the raging battle. “Show me what you've got, Blue. "
10 " Laughter fell from Darcy’s lips and I followed her gaze to see Seth scratching at his ass like he’d lost a ferret up there. "
11 " I headed out of my en-suite into my room and stopped dead as I spotted a life sized inflatable Pegasus sex doll standing in the middle of my goddamn bed. "
12 " The stars might have guided us to this school but I’d been making my own luck and guiding my own destiny for long enough to know that I could take my fate into my own hands when I had to. "
13 " Holy shit,” Tory breathed, her shoulder knocking mine as she backed up. “She looks like a bird threw up a bucket of worms all over her head. I can’t believe she tried to insult your hair. "
14 " He looks like an angry bouncer who’s seen way too many fake IDs,” Darcy whispered in my ear and I couldn’t help but smirk. "
15 " His hand snapped out and snatched my wrist, a deep growl emanating from within his chest. A sliver of fear raced through me but I refused to acknowledge it as I raised an eyebrow at him. “Did you just growl at me? "
16 " We’d needed to break them. It had to be done. So why does it make me feel like a piece of shit? "
17 " Well don't waste your time sniffing around my snookums. Daddy says he's saving himself for our wedding night. "
18 " wondered again how such a thing had happened in the middle of campus with teachers all around. "
19 " An ache grew in my chest as he drew my power into him and I had to fight against the urge to pull him closer, to run my hands over his hair - I clenched my teeth. "
20 " You wanna take one for a ride?” he offered. “You can test your supposed skill against mine; there’s a circuit to the west of the estate. "
