Ilona Andrews Quote
I dreamt of Curran snarling Fix her! And Doolittle saying that he wasn’t a god and there was only so much he could do. I dreamt of Julie crying by my bed, of Jim sitting near, of Andrea telling me some frustratingly complicated story . . . The noises blended in my head until finally I could stand it no longer. Would all of you just be quiet? Please.I blinked and saw Curran’s face.Hey, he said.Hey. I smiled. There he was, alive. I was alive. I was telling the people in my head to shut up.They have medication for that.I probably can’t afford it.He caressed my cheek.You came for me, I whispered.Always, he told me.You’re a damn idiot. Trying to throw your life away?Just staying sharp. Keeping you safe keeps me in shape.He leaned in and kissed me softly on the lips. I reached for him and he hugged me to him and held on for a long moment. I closed my eyes, smiling at the simple pleasure of his skin on mine.
