Jacob really did look older than sixteen--not quite forty, but maybe older than me. Quil didn't have too much on him in the muscle department, for all that Jacob claimed to be a skeleton. The muscles...
It's twilight. It’s the safest time of day for us. The easiest time. But also the saddest, in a way...the end of another day, the return of the night. Darkness is so predictable, don’t you think?
It's not your fault, Carlisle comforted me with a chuckle. It could happen to anyone., I repeated. But it usually just happens to me.
It's an extraordinary thing to meet someone who you can bare your soul to and accept you for what you are. I've been waiting, for what seems like a very long time, to get beyond what I am. With Bella...
It won't be the same for me, I whispered, half to myself. You won't let me be like that. We'll live in Antarctica.Edward snorted, breaking the tension. Penguins. Lovely.
It will be as if I'd never existed, he'd promised me.I felt the smooth wooden floor beneath my knees, and then the palms of my hands, and then it was pressed against the skin of my cheek. I hoped that...
It was not going to be the end of the world. Just the end of the Cullens. The end of Edward, the end of me. I preferred it that way – the last part anyway. I would not live without Edward again; if he...
It was like talking to Diego had cleared my head. For the first time in three months, was not the main thing in there.
Isabella Swan? He looked up at me through his impossibly long lashes, his golden eyes soft but, somehow, still scorching. I promise to love you forever—every single day of forever. Will you marry me?T...
In my dream it was very dark, and what dim light there was seemed to be radiating from Edward's skin. I couldn't see his face, just his back as he walked away from me, leaving me in the blackness. No...
Ian stood above me, his chest heaving with exertion and fury. For a second he turned away and put the door back in place with one swift wrench. And then he was glowering again.I took a deep breath and...
I, the soul named Wanderer, love you, human Ian and that will never change no matter what I might become. If I were a Dolphin or a Bear or a Flower, it wouldn't matter. I would always love you, always...
I'll be back so soon you won't have time to miss me. Look after my heart I've left it with you
I'd never seen anything more beautiful - even as I ran, gasping and screaming, I could appreciate that. And the last seven months meant nothing. And his words in the forest meant nothing. And it did n...
I wondered to myself why no one else had seen him standing so far away, before he was suddenly, impossibly saving my life. With chagrin, I realized the probable cause - no one else was as aware of Edw...
I wish i'd hurt him I didn't do any damage at all-BellaI can fix that-edwardI was hoping you would say that-bellathere was a slight pause that doesn't sound like you what did he do-edwardhe kissed me-...
I watched his fingers clench and unclench, and I wondered if he was dreaming that they were wrapped around my neck.
I was tired enough to sleep, but I fought against the weariness. I wasn't going to miss a second of the time I had with him. Now and then, as he talked with Alice, he would lean down suddenly and kiss...
I was thinking about how disjointedly time seemed to flow in Forks, passing in a blur at times, with single images standing out more clearly than others. And then, at other times, every second was sig...
I waited for him to say something more, but he was quiet.Was there something you wanted? I asked.He didn't answer right away, but I could feel him struggling, so I waited.If I asked you something, wou...
