Ilona Andrews Quote

The magic flooded us again. This time Derek was ready—his face showed no change. Ghastek, on the other hand, halted in midrise halfway off the ground.I unsheathed Slayer. Derek backed away, giving himself room for a leap. If the vamp went berserk, we’d be in a hell of a lot of trouble.Ghastek? I murmured.Just a second. His voice sounded muffled.Are you losing your grip on him?What?The vampire dropped to the floor, regarding me with blood-drenched eyes. Whatever led you to that conclusion?You froze.If you must know, an apprentice brought me my espresso and I burned my tongue on it.Derek grimaced, disgust practically dripping off his face.
