You know, this would be a lot easier to get used to if you had to go back to your TARDIS or whatever before you disappeared.
And then the light turns into a snake, and I turn into a snake, although I’m pretty sure those last two are due more to my choice of bedtime reading than to Molly’s memories.
I nod. Thanks. Molly was definitely right about one thing, you know. A grin inches across his face. That I’m gorgeous? , I think. No, I say. I that you’re a really nice guy, but now it looks like you...
I’m not delusional, Aaron. I know he’s nearly six feet tall. Deo’s not a little kid to anyone but me. But I held him when he cried. When he a little kid. I promised him I’d keep the monsters away. Th...
Before you start what? He shakes his head. Not telling. You have to come and see. There’s a mischievous light in his eyes, and in that moment he looks so very much like his eight-year-old self, waitin...
It’s like saving up that perfect comeback you read in a book or heard on TV—it always sounds good in your head, but it never quite fits in real life.
Kiernan doesn’t answer. He just turns toward the door and walks out, limping. He bangs both the cabin door and the porch door on his way out. Pretty sad for someone who seems to think he’s being the a...
I haven’t eaten, Aaron says, nodding down at the large white bag in his hands. And I’m guessing Daniel didn’t feed you on the way over, because . . . well, because he’s . . . so I bought extra. Do we...
After a few miles, I push play and the audiobook starts. It might be nice to ride through the night, believing in magic for a while, magic of either the Hogwarts variety or the Muggle sort that will k...
But then he rolls his eyes and gives me a half smile. Fine. But if you must give me the Mark of the Beast, at least put it where I don’t have to see it constantly. Such as? If we want to be in keeping...
And one day, if I see your smile on her face, maybe that'll keep me from feeling I've left a piece of my heart behind.
An annoyed huff when he sees Trey suggests Max considers him an add-on rather than true Fifth Column. But he probably thinks the same about me. Too bad we can’t just step aside and let Max save the da...
We’re about five steps down when he says, I feel like we’ve walked into a horror movie. Two teens sneak down to the basement, where the psycho killer lurks in the dark. If you’re trying to lighten the...
Kiernan. I had a sudden memory of the small, scuffed-up shoe I’d seen just before I fell. He must have snatched the bracelet when the crowd gathered around me. If I managed to get out, I resolved to g...
A few seconds later, I heard Katherine’s voice from below. Kate, you have a gentleman caller. I rolled my eyes. How is it that a grandmother from the twenty-fourth century sounds like she’s from a Cha...
And with that, he began walking at a rapid clip toward the Sixtieth Street station. Several members of the crowd I’d just pushed my way through came over to help me up, and one rather gallant gentlema...
Shut up! Dacia digs her nails into my skin. You do not do the talking. I do not need you to tell me about your other phantom . . . She waves her hands, like she can’t find the word. The dead-in-your-h...
Miss Kate! Kiernan exclaimed, pointing. What happened to your toes? What? I glanced down, half expecting to see a leech or a cut or some other trauma, but there was nothing odd. What are you talking a...
Whenever a stray thought about Aaron, Taylor, or their relationship with Molly wanders into view, I push it into the folder near the back wall so that I can quickly shove them away from Dacia’s prying...
