I hadn’t wished for Trent in my life, but now that I had him, I was more confused, more heartbroken than I’d ever been. Trent was willing to sacrifice everything for me, but I didn’t know if I could l...
I don't want to live not remembering why I love.(Ivy Tamwood)
I am yours, Trent gasped through clenched teeth, and my hand sprang from him, thinking I was betrayed. Trent fell to a knee, looking up at me, pleading. I. Am. Yours. Claim me, Rachel! Damn your moral...
I am not going to live with regret for not having tried.
I am black, she said, and a shudder rippled through me. I am foul with a thousand years of demon curses. Don’t cross me or I will bring you and your house down. Rachel is the only clean thing I have,...
Holy dust, I murmured, looking for it among the clutter. Jenks’s wings hummed and he dropped to hover over the envelope that I’d gathered from the slats under my bed, the only place the pixies didn’t...
His mind seemed to expand as time became malleable, and with a sudden pop he could almost feel the world reset with a crystalline clarity of lost chances.
His eyes met mine at the soft touch, and a chime seemed to shake the ley line, realigning the universe. He was mine.
He's going to hurt you, Al said, looking at Pierce. I can take care of you, teach you to survive. Be there for you, even if you do hate me.I shivered. I don't want him, I said, and Al turned away, see...

Harmony crab-walked back. You’re the only one left, Reed. You were right. It was a trap. Michael is a sadist. We leave now, or I’ll shoot you on sight next time I see you as one of Bill’s brainwashed...
Half of it was meticulously arranged as an office with her computer - faster and more powerful than an industrial-sized package of laxative - color-coded files, maps and the markers she used to organi...
Good God, I whispered, sitting on the van’s cot and looking at my legs, horrified. They were hairy—not wolf hairy, but an I-couldn’t-find-my-razor-the-last-six-months hairy. Utterly grossed out, I too...
God, it stinks, I said, hand over my nose as he pulled me into a long step.Al strode forward, head high. It’s the stench of bureaucracy, my itchy-witch, and why I chose to go into human resources when...
Give me a minute to catch my breath, I said, sneaking glances at him. Then we can head to the car. I need a few more things to make the demon spell, but I’m too tired to do it now. It grated on me to...
Get your hand off me, I exclaimed, voice loud with misplaced anger as I yanked away from his grip. I’m a professional, not some distraught girlfriend. Well, I was that too, but I knew how to act at a...
Get out, he said flatly. I just got her normal again. Get out before you turn her into a sniveling, twitterpated…twit!Jenks! I exclaimed, and Pierce put a calming hand on me.That is my intent, Jenks,...
