“Eh bien, je crois que si certaines personnes écrivent les histoires, d'autres les vivent.”

“I'm really not good with impulse control.”

“Things die. But they don't always stay dead. Believe me, I know.”

“You kill me, Rose," he said melodramatically. "Every day is agony without you. Empty. Alone. I pine for you, wondering if you're even still alive.”

“What are you, Rose Hathaway? Are you real? You're a dream within a dream. I'm afraid touching you will make me wake up. You'll disappear.”

“You need me? You yell. You want to leave? We go. I'll get you out of here, no matter what.”

“The greatest changes in history have come when people were able to shake off what others told them to do.”

“In an undertone, I murmured, "This isn't over. I won't give up on you."
"I've given up on you," he said back, voice also soft. "Love fades. Mine has.”

“But each time you use spirit, you're more likely to go crazy.”
“Already crazy about you, Sage.”

“All the best,
Sydney

“I didn't like having reasonable arguments thrown at me.”

“You should've just gotten a kids' meal.' Adrian told me, pointing to my half-eaten burger and fries. 'You could've saved me a lot of money. And gotten a toy.”

“ARE YOU CRAZY?" I ASKED.

"Hey!"
He smiled. "I said”

“Sometimes the greatest tests of our strength are situations that don't seem so obviously dangerous. Sometimes surviving is the hardest thing of all.”

“As he looked at me, he seemed to send a message of his own: that he would still fight for me, that he would fight until he collapsed to keep them from taking me.”

“Piece of Heaven?"

"No, that other place I'm going to go to for thinking what I'm thinking.”

“Sometimes talking to you is like talking to myself: pretty damned annoying.”

“He shook his head. “No. Because there's no one else out there who understands you like I do.”
I waited for more. “That's it? You're not going to elaborate on what that means?”
Those green eyes held me. “I don't think I need to.”

“Mmm. O positive, my favorite.”
“Is it? I thought it was a cabernet sauvignon.”
“So it is,” said Adrian, straight-faced. “My mistake.”

“She says you're not awake until you're actually out of bed and standing up.”

“Sex had been amazing, but it wasn't a magical cure for everything. Damn. Somewhere along the way, I'd picked up common sense.”

“Is he… is Dimitri a Strigoi?"
Mason hesitated only a moment, like he was afraid to answer me, and then—he nodded.

"What other story?”
"About how you and Adrian Ivashkov are—"
