The speaker crouched, a muscular man with liquid silver eyes. He wasn't human, either. He reached in and snatched the brandy. Deidra pushed herself against the wall.
"Why do you insist on giving our women alcohol?" he demanded of Daniela, who stood beside him. "You know it's against the Code."
"If you didn't bring them here either half-eaten by demons or thinking they're dead, they wouldn't need alcohol."

"Gabriel…Maybe you should just take this thing out of my head and be done with me. Start over with someone who doesn't look like your ex. The woman you were kissing is gorgeous."
He grunted.
"I'm gonna have to train you, aren't I?" she said and elbowed him. "When a woman says something like that, she's waiting for you to fill in the details."
"So it's like a question, but the complete opposite," he replied.
"Yep."

"If you fail, I get a shitty quality of life my last few months. If you succeed, I get to…" she stopped.
"Deal with this Immortal bullshit?" he finished for her.
"Pretty much."
"What if I made you a new deal?"
"Oh god. Another attempt at an arrangement?"
"Relationship," he corrected with a smile.
"What do I get this time? Your left arm, two teeth and the trench coat?"
"No way in hell on the trench coat."

"The Code is not an absolute for deities but a relationship. One I can determine."
"Determine. Influence," Fate said, smiling slowly. "Control, if that's your thing. The handcuffs never hurt, right?"
"Silk ties."
"Jealous. She never used silk with me."
"She didn't trust you."
"For good reason. Same reason she knew better than to let me tie her. That would not have ended the way anyone thinks."
Gabe snorted, amused

"I'm upholding my end of our arrangement."
She really didn't want to leave the comfort of his arms, but remaining meant giving up something she wasn't willing to do.
"You're not running," he said cautiously. He smoothed the hair away from the side of her face. His kiss on her temple was light.
"That isn't an invitation," she warned him.
"You were a helluva lot easier to bed in your past life."

"It's rather embarrassing," he said.
"Omigod! You've seen me naked and drooling and drugged up. You've cut me open and-"
"I cede your point," he said, smiling. "First, can you tell me if your Gabriel is about seven feet tall, with eyes darker than night and no sense of humor?"
He jaw dropped.
"I'll take that as a yes."
"Gabriel hit you?"
"It might've been another seven-foot stranger concerned about your welfare."

"Are you human?"
Deidre nodded. Hannah relaxed. Deidre guessed she'd stumbled upon somewhere in the Immortal world.
"You should go get the Immortal mood beast," the boy advised Hannah
"No, you go get her, Toby," Hannah replied
"I just escaped!" the boy whined
Deidre gasped. No part of her was ready to meet whatever creature they discussed. She was barely holding it together knowing about Death and Immortals

Sensitive to light after years in the underworld, his head felt like it was going to explode. Falling thirty stories onto the hard sand of the Sanctuary did nothing to help. In hindsight, he didn't know why he thought the rocky beach provided a more yielding place to land than concrete. If he ever leapt off another building, he'd choose pavement, which might have some give to it.

Did heaven look like an island in the Caribbean? She turned around Ocean surrounded the small island, upon which a fortress sat, several hundred meters away, up a sloping hill
A stunning man with a large smile dressed in white stood a few feet away
"Are you…are you an angel?"
"That's not as funny as you think it is. Dammit I swore I'd get the first and last word in this time now. Fifty percent chance of that now."

"Darkyn is very powerful." Harmony's voice held a hushed note of reverence that irked Gabriel.
"He's a demon lord but not a deity," he pointed out.
"Oh, sorry Gabriel. I keep forgetting you are now."
"Thanks," he said dryly.
"I didn't mean…you're really trying…um, and doing your best." She met his gaze at last, a red flush creeping across her face.
"Appreciate the encouragement."
