    “With a few swift steps, Adrian stood in front of me again. The wall was only a couple inches behind me, and I had nowhere to go. He made no threatening moves, but he did clasp my hands and hold them to his chest while leaning down to me.
    “No, you will listen. For once, you’re going to hear something that doesn’t fit into your neat, compartmentalized world of order and logic and reason. Because this isn’t reasonable. If you’re terrified, believe me—this scares the hell out of me, too. You asked about Rose? I tried to be a better person for her—but it was to impress her, to get her to want me. But when I’m around you, I want to be better because… well, because it feels right. Because I want to. You make me want to become something greater than myself. I want to excel. You inspire me in every act, every word, every glance. I look at you, and you’re like… like light made into flesh. I said it on Halloween and meant every word: you are the most beautiful creature I have ever seen walking this earth. And you don’t even know it. You have no clue how beautiful you are or how brightly you shine.”

    “Yeah? Can you draw a skeleton riding a motorcycle with flames coming out of it? And I want a pirate hat on the skeleton. And a parrot on his shoulder. A skeleton parrot. Or maybe a ninja skeleton parrot? No, that would be overkill. But it'd be cool if the biker skeleton could be shooting some ninja throwing stars. That are on fire.”

    Richelle Mead
    “You're not as much of a lost cause as she was. I mean, with her, I had to overcome her deep, epic love with a Russian warlord. You and I just have to overcome hundreds of years' worth of deeply ingrained prejudice and taboo between our two races. Easy.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    Richelle Mead
    “But I can say you’re okay for an irreverent party boy with occasional moments of brilliance.”
    “Brilliant? You think I’m brilliant?” He threw his hands skyward. “You hear that, world? Sage says I’m brilliant.”
    “That’s not what I said!”
    ...
    “Come on, Sage. You understand how my mind works. You said I was brilliant, remember?”
    Eddie glanced at me in surprise. “You did?”
    “No! I never said that.” Adrian’s smile was infuriating. “Stop telling people that.”

    “Day 24. Situation is growing worse. My captors continue to find new and horrific ways to torture me. When not working, Agent Scarlet spends her days examining fabric swatches for bridesmaid dresses and going on about how in love she is. This usually causes Agent Boring Borscht to regale us with stories of Russian weddings that are even more boring than his usual ones. My attempts at escape have been thwarted thus far. Also, I am out of cigarettes. Any assistance or tobacco products you can send will be greatly appreciated.
    -Prisoner 24601”

    “Our lips met hungrily, and his clever artistic hands wrapped around my hips. A sudden buzz from my regular cell phone startled me from the kissing.
    "Don't," said Adrian, his eyes ablaze and breathing ragged.
    "What if there's a crisis at school?" I asked. "What if Angeline 'accidentally' stole one of the campus buses and drove it into the library?"
    "Why would she do that?"
    "Are you saying she wouldn't?"
    He sighed. "Go check it.”
    Richelle Mead, The Fiery Heart

    Richelle Mead
    “Relax, having kids is years away. But can you imagine? Your brains, my charm, our collective good looks... then add in the usual physical abilities dhampirs get.

    It's really not even fair to everyone else.”
    Richelle Mead, The Fiery Heart

    Richelle Mead
    “Because I can't help doing it," he said with a shrug. "And hey, if I keep loving you, maybe you'll eventually crack and love me too. Hell, I'm pretty sure you're already half in love with me."

    "I am not! And everything you just said is ridiculous. That's terrible logic."

    Adrian returned to his crossword puzzle. "Well, you can think what you want, so long as you remember-no matter how ordinary things seem between us-I'm still here, still in love with you, and care about you more than any other guy, evil or otherwise, ever will."

    "I don't think you're evil."

    "See? Things are already looking promising.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    Richelle Mead
    “He shouldn't have said that," repeated Adrian, eerily serious. He leaned his face toward mine. "I don't care if he's not the emotional type or the complimentary type or what. No one can look at you in this dress, in all that fire and gold, and start talking about anachronisms. If I were him, I would have said, 'You are the most beautiful creature I have ever seen walking this earth.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

    Richelle Mead
    “Do you want me to call you Celery Stick instead of Cupcake or Honey-Pie? It just doesn’t inspire the same warm and fuzzy feelings.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

  • #13
    Richelle Mead
    “Really, Sage? A date?”
    I sighed. “Yes, Adrian. A date.”
    “A real date. Not, like, doing homework together,” he added.
    “I mean like where you go out to a movie or something. And a
    movie that’s not part of a school assignment. Or about something boring.”
    “A real date.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

    “Sage," he said. "What are you wearing?"
    I sighed and stared down at the dress. "I know. It's red. Don't start. I'm tired of hearing about it."
    "Funny," he said. "I don't think I could ever get tired of looking at it.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

    “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.”

    Richelle Mead
    “But when I touch you, your aura … it smolders. The colors deepen, it burns more intensely, the purple increases. Why? Why, Sydney?” He used that hand to pull me closer. “Why do you react that way if I don’t mean anything to you?” There was a desperation in his voice, and it was legitimate.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    Richelle Mead
    “How is Angeline?" asked Dimitri. "Is she improving?"
    Eddie and I exchanged glances. So much for avoiding her indiscretions. "improving how exactly?" I asked. "Improving how exactly?" I asked. "In combat, in following the dress code, or in keeping her hands to herself?"
    "Or in turning off caps lock?" added Eddie.
    "you noticed that too?"I asked.
    "Hard not to," he said.
    Dimitri looked surprised, which was not a common thing. He wasn't caught off guard very often, but then, no one could really prepare for what Angeline might do.
    "I didn't realize I needed to be more specific," said Dimitri after a pause. "I meant combat.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

    Richelle Mead
    “I wanted someone a little more approachable," I explained.
    "What, like Captain McTropicalShorts back there? Where on earth did you find him anyway?"
    "Just did an Internet search." Feeling a need to defend my research, I added, "He comes highly recommended."
    "By who? Long John Silver?”

    “Piece of Heaven?"

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

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

    “Micah showed up shortly thereafter and was happy to meet our other “brother.”

    He shook Adrian’s hand and smiled. “Now I see some family resemblance. I was starting to wonder if Jill was adopted, but you two kind of look like each other.”

    “So does our mailman back in North Dakota,” said Adrian.

    “South,” I corrected. Fortunately, Micah didn’t seem to think there was anything weird about the slip.
    “Right,” said Adrian. He studied Micah thoughtfully. “There’s something familiar about you. Have we met?”
    Micah shook his head. “I’ve never been to South Dakota.”

    I was pretty sure I heard Adrian murmur, “That makes two of us.”

    “Whatever happened to the dragon?"

    I mustered my primmest tone. "He has a name, you know."

    Adrian pulled back and gave me a curious look. "I didn't know, actually. What'd you decide on?"

    "Hopper." When Adrian laughed, I added, "Best rabbit ever. He'd be proud to know his name is being passed on."
    "Yes, I'm sure he would. Did you name the Mustang too?"
    "I think you mean the Ivashkinator."

    He stared at me in wonder. "I told you I loved you, right?
    "Yes," I assured him. "Many times.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    Richelle Mead
    “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.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

    Richelle Mead
    “I don't suppose that she gave you the job based on looks alone?"
    Adrian had been staring off but now flashed me a big smile. "Why, Sage, you sweet talker."
    "That's not what I meant! What happened?"
    He shrugged. "I told the truth."
    "Adrian!"
    "I'm serious. She asked me what my greatest strength was. I said getting along with people."
    "That's not bad." I admitted.
    "Then she asked what my greatest weakness was. And I said, 'Where should I start?'"
    "Adrian!"
    "Stop saying my name like that. I told her the truth. By the time I was on the fourth one, she told me I could go.”

    Richelle Mead
    “He reached out and pulled me to him, one hand on my waist and the other behind my neck. He tipped my head up and lowered his lips to mine. I closed my eyes and melted as my whole body was consumed in that kiss. I was nothing. I was everything. Chills, ran over my skin, and fire burned inside me. His body pressed closer to mine, and I wrapped my arms around his neck. His lips were warmer and softer than anything I could have ever imagined, yet fierce and powerful at the same time. Mine responded hungrily, and I tightened my hold on him. His fingers slid down the back of my neck, tracing its shape, and every place they touched was electric.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

    “I’d mentioned this odd wardrobe choice to Adrian a couple of weeks ago:
    “Isn’t Dimitri hot?”
    Adrian’s response hadn’t been entirely unexpected:
    “Well, yeah, according to most women, at least.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

    “Adrian ordered a martini, earning disapproving looks from his father and me.
    'It's barely noon,' said Nathan.
    'I know,' said Adrian. 'I'm surprised I held out that long too.”
