“Don't you see?" said Calla. "He wasn't coming to pay your debt. He was coming to see if you'd returned to pay it yourself." Lila felt her face go hot. "I do not know why you two are circling each other like stars. It is not my cosmic dance. But I do know that you come asking after one another, when only a few strides and a handful of stars divide you.”

“He asked for a specific. I gave him a specific. I'm sorry it wasn't puppies.”

“The way you move is incredible.â€� Ren drew me back to press against him. His fingers slid down to the curve of my hips, rocking our bodies in rhythm with the heavy bass. The sensation of being molded against the hard narrow line of his hips threatened to overwhelm me. We were hidden in the mass of people, right? The Keepers couldn’t see?
I tried to steady my breath as Ren kept us locked together in the excruciatingly slow pulse of the music. I closed my eyes and leaned back into his body; his fingers kneaded my hips, caressed my stomach. God, it felt good.
My lips parted and the misty veil slipped between them, playing along my tongue. The taste of flower buds about to burst into bloom filled my mouth. Suddenly I wanted nothing more than to melt into Ren. The surge of desire terrified me. I had no idea if the compulsion to draw him more tightly around my body emerged from my own heart or from the succubi’s spellcraft. This couldn’t happen!
I started to panic when he bent his head, pressing his lips against my neck. My eyes fluttered and I struggled to focus despite the suffocating heat that pressed down all around me. His sharpened canines traced my skin, scratching but not breaking the surface. My body quaked and I pivoted in his arms, pushing against his chest, making space between us.
“I’m a fighter, not a lover,� I gasped.
“You can’t be both?â€� His smile made my knees buckle.”

“The mouthful of turkey sandwich I’d bitten off caught in my throat when Ren rested his hand on my leg, his fingers exploring the curve of my thigh. I coughed and snatched the bottle of water from his other hand, taking several desperate swallows before swatting his fingers from my leg.
“Are you trying to kill me?â€� I choked the words out. “Keep your hands to yourself.”
― Andrea Cremer, Nightshade

“It's like scrying into that weird space. There's so much coming out of him, it shouldn't be possible. Do you remember that woman who came in who was pregnant with quadruplets? It was like that, but worse."
"He's pregnant?" Blue asked.”
― Maggie Stiefvater, The Raven Boys

“The best-case scenario here is that you make friends with a boy who's going to die."
"Ah," said Calla, in a very, very knowing way. "Now I see."
"Don't psychoanalyse me," her mother said.
"I already have. And I say again, 'ah'.”
― Maggie Stiefvater, The Raven Boys

“(Ren's) eyes were sad but resigned. “And where will you go?â€�
I couldn’t keep the fear out of my reply. “I don’t know.�
“Please don’t do this,â€� he whispered. “Come back with me. We’ll talk to Logan; there has to be an explanation. The Keepers need us; we’re the alphas. We’ll figure this out. They won’t hurt you. I won’t let them.”
― Andrea Cremer, Nightshade

“Yeah, she is great. I spent the whole week with her."
"Doing what?" I asked, catching a growl before it left my throat.
"Aw, you're cute when you're jealous.”
― Andrea Cremer, Wolfsbane

“Ren," I whispered. "I want-"
And then I was leaning over him, my cropped hair brushing against his cheeks as I bent to kiss him. Our lips met and I felt like I was diving into oblivion. The kiss grew deep, inmediate and hungry. He lifted me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist, molding my body against his.”
― Andrea Cremer, Bloodrose

“I growled and then slapped him.
"Hey!" His hand pressed to his cheek.
"You always say that when I slap you," I said.
"I think it's a problem that you know what I say when you slap me," he said. "That's not the kind of intimacy I'm looking for.”
― Andrea Cremer, Bloodrose

“Our kisses were so full of need, so long, so fierce that I could hardly gasp for breath.

“I've always welcomed war, but when the last battle ends, what life is left for a warrior?”
― Andrea Cremer, Bloodrose

“Silas?" I glanced from Ren to the mad-haired scholar. "He was your company?"
"Still jealous?" Ren winked at me.
"I was not jealous," I said.
"Really?" Ren said. "So that harpy-ish tone was your normal speaking voice?”
― Andrea Cremer, Bloodrose

“Staring at the wreckage of the life we could have had, I knew it wasn't about love or Shay or the Searchers now. It was about sacrifice and redemption, loss that could have new meaning.”
― Andrea Cremer, Wolfsbane

“You with me?â€�

Remembering him saying that before, our first time, I nodded and whispered, “Yes.�

He kissed me again. “Then stay with me.”

“Besides, tourists go out there all the time. The volcano can't be that dangerous."
"I'm guessing the tourists aren't trying to steal a forbidden object out from under the noses of evil witches."
"Not unless they've paid for the deluxe package".”

“Oh God's! My eyes!" Connor covered his face. "My innocence!"
"Shut up Connor!”
― Andrea Cremer, Bloodrose

“What’s your name?â€�

“My name is that of all women,â€� the woman replied. “Sorrow.”

“They said I have to." "Have to what?" "Break you." ... "I don't believe you wanted to hurt me." I said. "And I don't believe you would have, even if Monroe hadn't---" ... "I wouldn't have." Ren whispered.”
― Andrea Cremer, Bloodrose

“He is Monroe's son." I pointed at Ren. "And he's your best hope to win this war." "He's what?" Shay's voice was dead quiet. I'm what?" Ren kept his own voice to a whisper, but the look he'd thrown me was a bit alarmed.”
― Andrea Cremer, Wolfsbane

“Do you still want Ren?" I listened to my own heartbeat for a minute before answering. "Yes." "That's one hot mess, Cal." Ansel smiled at me.”
― Andrea Cremer, Bloodrose

“Look, we can stand out here and argue about it for the next ten minutes, but you’re getting in this truck.â€�

My eyes narrowed. “Let me remind you of something. I don’t know you. Like at all.�

“And I’m not asking you to get naked and give me a private show.â€� Pausing, his gaze seemed to drift down my body again. “Although, that is way interesting. A bad idea, but way interesting.”
― J. Lynn, Stay with Me

“Thank you,â€� he said.

I blinked. “What?�

A funny little smile played out across his lips. “Thank you for trusting me with this.�

My mouth gaped.

“It’s a big deal.� His lashes lifted and his eyes met mine. “What we did. It was your first time. I’m honored.�

Was this real?

“So thank you.�

Jax closed the distance between us, melding our lips together in what had to have been the sweetest kiss possible, and I realized this was real. Not some orgasm-induced hallucination, and there was truly no wonder why I’d fallen for him.”

“If someone is robbing us, come back after buisness hours!" Calla's voice came from upstairs.”

“Because caring was a thing with claws. It sank them in, and didn't let go. Caring hurt more than a knife to the leg, more than a few broken ribs, more than anyth.ing that bled or broke and healed again. Caring didn't break you clean. It was a bone that didn't set, a cut that wouldn't close.”

“This is what you get, Maura, for using your DNA to make a baby,â€� Calla said.”

“During the morning chores, you look forward with love, during the evening ones, you look back with nostalgia."

“You do me too much honor,â€� she said, smile widening. “And if you were coming to see about that debt,â€� she went on, eyes bright, “you should know that it has recently been paid.â€�
Kell’s chest tightened. “What? When?�
“Indeed,� continued Calla. “Only a few minutes ago.�
Kell didn’t even say good-bye.
He lunged out of the tent and into the churning market, scanning the currents of people streaming past.”

“These trees were dying. My friends told me I should uproot them to spare the rest of the forest. But I could feel too much life in their trunks to pluck them from the ground.'
'How did you save them?' Biana asked.
'I listened. And I realized their voices had been silenced. So I gave them mine. I sang of sunlight and rain and rich soil. And hope. Always hope.' Calla moved to another tree, one that had the widest curve of them all, and lay in the slope of its trunk. 'For a week, I stayed right here. I didn't stop, even to rest my throat. I could barely rasp by the end, but I could feel their strength returning. They'll forever bear the mark of their trials, but they are survivors. Proof that anything can be overcome.'
Keefe sat on one of the curved trunks, and Sophie waited for him to make a joke. But he just slid his fingers over the rough bark.”
