    Richelle Mead
    “Sometimes I do. Sometimes I look at him...and I remember how it was when I kissed him and felt that love. It makes me want that back. I want to feel it again. I want to return to it. Other times though...other times, I'm so scared. I listen to these guys...and to Jerome...and then the doubts gnaw at me. I can't get them out of my head. We've been sleeping together, you know. Literally. It hasn't been a problem so far, but sometimes I lie awake watching him, thinking this can't last. The longer it does...I feel like...like I'm standing on a high wire, with Seth at one end and me at the other. We're trying to reach each other, but one misstep, one breeze, one side-glance, and I'll fall over the edge. And keep falling and falling."

    Carter leaned toward me and brushed the hair away from the side of my face. "Don't look down then," he whispered.”
    Richelle Mead, Succubus on Top

    Patricia Briggs
    “C’est moi, c’est moi,’tis I,' I told him. It seemed appropriately melodramatic, though I didn’t know if he’d catch the reference. I shouldn’t have worried.
    Unexpectedly, he laughed. “Trust you to quote Lancelot rather than Guinevere.”
    Patricia Briggs, Moon Called

    Richelle Mead
    “Well, that depends, I suppose. I heard someone once say that men dance the same way they have sex. So, if you want everyone here to think you're the kind of guy who just sits around and—"
    He stood up. "Let's dance.”
    Richelle Mead, Succubus Blues

    Richelle Mead
    “Hey, if you'd wanted to avoid 'this,' you shouldn't have lured me last night. Now it's too late. You might as well avoid the long, drawn-out pain and get it over with quickly. Sort of like taking off a Band-Aid. Or cutting off a limb."

    "Wow, who says there's no romance left in the world?”
    Richelle Mead, Succubus Blues

    Richelle Mead
    “How come when mortals want things, their only option is to make a deal with Hell and sell their soul? Why can’t they make deals with God in exchange for good behavior?"

    It was another of those rare moments when I’d surprised Carter. I waited for the glib answer I’d mentioned to Seth, something along the lines of goodness being its own reward. The angel considered for several seconds. "Humans make those deals all the time," he said finally. "They just don’t make them with God."

    "Then who are they making them with?" I exclaimed.

    "Themselves.”
    Richelle Mead, Succubus Heat

    Ilona Andrews
    “Not only will you sleep with me, but you will say 'please.'"
    I stared at him, shocked.
    The smile widened. "You will say 'please' before and 'thank you' after."
    Nervous laughter bubbled up. "You've gone insane. All that peroxide in your hair finally did your brain in, Goldilocks.”
    Ilona Andrews, Magic Burns

    Charlaine Harris
    “I snuck a look to see how Eric was taking this, and he was staring at me the same way the Monroe vampires had. Thoughtful. Hungry.

    Charlaine Harris
    “Glass shattered, vampires roared, humans screamed. The noise battered at me, just as the tidal wave of scores of brains at high gear washed over me. When it began to taper off, I looked up into Eric's eyes. Incredibly, he was excited. He smiled at me. "I knew I'd get on top of you somehow," he said.
    Are you trying to make me mad so I'll forget how scared I am?"
    No, I'm just opportunistic."
    I wiggled, trying to get out from under him, and he said, "Oh, do that again. It felt great.”
    Charlaine Harris, Living Dead in Dallas

    Kelley Armstrong
    “The show's writers had peppered the piece with words like "savage," "wild," and "animalistic." What bullshit. Show me the animal that kills for the thrill of watching something die. Why does the stereotype of the animalistic killer persist?

    Because humans like it. It neatly explains things for them, moving humans to the top of the evolutionary ladder and putting killers down among mythological man-beast monsters like werewolves.

    The truth is, if a werewolf behaved like this psychopath it wouldn't be because he was part animal, but because he was still too human. Only humans kill for sport.”
    Kelley Armstrong, Bitten

    “Yeah? What'd you name all those cats?"

    Death, Famine, Pestilence, War, and Mr. Whiskers."

    You named your cats after the riders of the apocal--wait. Mr. Whiskers?"

    Well, there are only four horsemen.”
    Richelle Mead, Storm Born

    Richelle Mead
    “I figured I could read more than five pages tonight since I'd been deprived for the last couple of days. When I finished the fifteenth, I discovered I was three pages from the next chapter. Might as well end with a clean break. After I was done, I sighed and leaned back, feeling decadent and spent. Pure bliss. Books were a lot less messy than orgasms.”
    Richelle Mead, Succubus Blues

    Richelle Mead
    “Vampires. Honestly, they're like children sometimes. ”
    Richelle Mead, Succubus Blues

    Richelle Mead
    “Longing surged up within me. I wanted it. Oh God, I wanted it. I didn't want to hear Jerome chastise me for my "all lowlifes, all the time" seduction policy. I wanted to come home and tell someone about my day. I wanted to go out dancing on the weekends. I wanted to take vacations together. I wanted someone to hold me when I was upset, when the ups and downs of the world pushed me too far.
    I wanted someone to love. ”
    Richelle Mead, Succubus Blues

    “Aubrey, crouching on a nearby counter, watched me with squinty eyes, apparently pondering why anyone would willingly immerse themselves in water ever, let alone for extended periods of time. ”

    Richelle Mead
    “The only way to lose a kingdom is if your power drops or..well, if you're killed."
    "I'm sure Volusian would love to help with that."
    My minion walked near me, needing no horse to move swiftly. Upon hearing his name, he said, "I would perform the deed with great relish and much suffering on your part, mistress."
    "You can't put a price on that kind of loyalty," I told Kiyo.”
    Richelle Mead, Thorn Queen
