Quotes from Drop Dead Demons

“Mom, this isn’t what it looks like.”
Mom put her hand on her hip. “It looks like a group of boys wrestling on the floor of your bedroom while you watch. Wearing a towel.”
“Okay,” I admitted, “it is what it looks like, but it’s not—”
“Sexual?” She raised her eyebrows.
“Mom!”
Luna stuck her head under Mom’s arm and sucked in a breath. “She’s gone from a love triangle to a kinky sex pentagon.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“Rose stood in the last faint beams of sunset.
“Whoa!”
“Is he wearing a leather cat suit?”
“Holy Mother!"
“Dude!”
The guys all quickly averted their eyes and raised their hands to further block any chance of catching a view. Anything to not see Rose in his painted-on leather one-piece that left absolutely nothing to the imagination.
“Stunning, right?” Rose spread his palms as far as the cuffs would allow.
“Oh, I’m stunned.” Ayden looked ill.
Rose looked down at himself with admiration. “Not many males can pull off this look.”
“No male can pull off that look.”
"Actually, his finely sculptured physique would be considered the perfect complement for this type of anatomically revealing attire which accentuates his—”
“Bloody hell, Jayden, shut it!”
“Dude, this is so not right.”
“I feel like it’s looking at me.”
“Feel like what’s looking at—? Oh. Oh! Ugh, now I feel like it’s looking at me too.”
“How can it be looking at both of us?” “Are you serious?”
“I’m gonna be sick.”
“Someone please gouge out my eyes.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“Oh, my God! Why are you in a towel?” Ayden sprang forward and ripped off his leather jacket. He led us both in an awkward sidestep to my closet. “Take your time. Get clothes on. Lots of them.”
He shoved me inside and closed the door. In the pitch, dark I reached for the light switch, but the door opened again. “Sorry.” Ayden’s hand slid in, groping for the switch, found it, and flipped it on. “Don’t come out until… lots and lots of clothes.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“I require your assistance,” a male voice whispered.
My mouth fell open.
“Ahhgaluhg!” I gagged — near drowned — on a slew of water and lost my balance. The pink shower curtain proved no leverage whatsoever, and I ripped it down with me, rod and all, slopping into the tub with a splash, irritated squeal, and shuddering thud.
“Jay—!” I stifled a scream and hissed the second syllable through clenched teeth, “—den!”
“Have you sustained injury?” Jayden’s face hovered over the tub.
“Not until you showed up!”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“Taking awfully long to deliver a package!” Dad said.
“Because you make him nervous!” I motioned for him to go inside.
“That should make him faster,” Dad pointed out. “What is it anyway?”
“Uh.”
Rose whispered, “Tell him it’s the Kama Sutra book you ordered.”
I yelled over my shoulder, “It’s the Kama Su—” I turned to Rose. “Wait. Isn’t that the—”
“Ancient text of sexual pleasure?” he nodded. “Yes. Quite riveting. I’d be happy demonstrate. My skills are legendary.”
“Oh, thanks very much.”
“I’ll take that as a yes.”
“No!”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“You know, maybe I meant more that you
seemed...uninterested. In, ah, in ahhh,” I moved my palm in circles in the air in front of me.
He lifted one brow. “Uninterested in your…chest?”
“What?” I realized my hand had been circling right over my boobs. Nice move, Aurora. I rolled my eyes. “No! Not…that!”
“Good.” His dark eyes glittered with amusement. “Because I can assure you I find your chest very interesting. At times, downright mesmerizing.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“Aurora,” Mom sharpened her
tone, “I thought you were having
dinner. Why are you in the parking
lot?”
A new voice on the phone
snorted, “Parking, obviously... Sorry. This pregnancy is
frying my motherboard. And
speaking of babies—”
Here it comes.
“—that’s what parking with your
boyfriend leads to, Aurora. Save
yourself the agony. My bladder will
never be the same.”
“I’m not parking with my
boyfriend!” I screeched.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“Murder might do wonders to relieve my stress.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“Mrs. Grant glanced at her
husband. “She’s always so fidgety.
Like a canary.” She narrowed her
eyes at me. “I hate canaries.”
I squeaked again. But not like a
canary. I hoped.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“I know what I’m doing.” “Nothing good ever comes after that statement.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“I looked down at my chest, figuring there had to be a bullet hole. Or an arrow sticking out. Something to explain the pain. But then I realized it was just my heart. Breaking.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“Aurora,” Mom sharpened her tone, “I thought you were having dinner. Why are you in the parking lot?”
A new voice on the phone snorted, “Parking, obviously... Sorry. This pregnancy is frying my motherboard. And speaking of babies—”
Here it comes.
“—that’s what parking with your boyfriend leads to, Aurora. Save yourself the agony. My bladder will never be the same.
“I’m not parking with my boyfriend!” I screeched.”

“I picked up the largest of the rocks that littered the ground and chucked them at the flaming metal balls. “What are you doing?” Logan said. “Going low-tech.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“The front door slammed and Dad said, “Aurora, sure you aren’t expecting a package?”
I leaned back to find him army-crawling under the window in the living room. Like all dads do. “Already told you no, Rambo.”
“The new mailman is back.” Dad reached up and pulled the curtains closed before standing up and peeking out. “Won’t come to the door.”
“M shot a tranquillizer dart at the last guy.” Mom gave a tired look at M who shrugged unapologetically. “The fact that there’s a new one willing to be on our sidewalk is a miracle. Don’t scare him off, Clyde.”
Dad tried to block me when I went for the curtains. “He won’t let me sign for your package. Demanded you come out in person.”
“I’ll get my tranq gun!” M made for her room.
“Don’t you dare!” Mom chased her.
I swished back the curtains to get a look at the petrifying postman.
“I find his interest in my teenage daughter creepy,” Dad grumbled.
Oh, he had no idea.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“Nothing good ever comes after that statement.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“The drenched fabric clung to every sculptured line of Ayden’s torso and revealed in detail how his muscles flexed to hold the weight. It was glorious. If you were into that sort of thing. And based how my breath caught at the sight, I was.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“You’re right,” Ayden said. “Course I am.” Blake folded his arms. “About what?”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“I’ve got a plan!” “Not interested.” Both whips wrapped around a demon’s neck and the head popped off. “It puts me in mortal danger.”  Matthias’s eyes slid my way. “I’m listening.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“There was a scream. From Logan. He stood just inside my open window. At the sight of me — and after the scream — he spun around and tried to duck out. In his panic, he miscalculated and slammed his forehead into the edge of the frame. The impact reeled him back. He stumbled and landed on his backside, holding his hand to his head, moaning.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“Before I could retrieve the bullet off the floor, Helsing jumped down, grabbed it in his mouth, and raced to tuck it under the purple pillow in his bed, where he also kept Gloria’s feathers. Then he crouched, glowering, as if daring any of us to take it away. Great. My cat was a hoarder.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“Yeah, I do. Matthias is right.” Wow. That tasted like battery acid, mixed with jalapeno cyanide and shoved down my throat with a spiked spoon.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

“I scrambled for cover. Saw my backpack on the ground. Had a hand on it. Was going to use it to block the attack—because nylon was so robust against steel—”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Drop Dead Demons

Popular quotes

“I don’t want to forget any of this. The way he’s looking at me at this very moment. How, when he kisses me, I still get shivers down my back, every time. I want to hold on to everything so tight.”
― Jenny Han, quote from Always and Forever, Lara Jean

“Then, having thus made the Creator responsible for all those pains and diseases and miseries above enumerated, and which he could have prevented, the gifted Christian blandly calls him Our Father!

It is as I tell you. He equips the Creator with every trait that goes to the making of a fiend, and then arrives at the conclusion that a fiend and a father are the same thing! Yet he would deny that a malevolent lunatic and a Sunday school superintendent are essentially the same.”
― Mark Twain, quote from Letters from the Earth: Uncensored Writings

“The devil does not exist. I do not believe he exists. Nor do I believe the old saying that the devil's greatest accomplishment was to convince the majority of mankind that he does not exist. For me Satan and a literal hell are fables born of Christianity's desire to control humanity by increasing its fear of death. After all, I'm five thousands years old and I've never met Satan.”
― Christopher Pike, quote from Thirst No. 3: The Eternal Dawn

“And, truth be told, I'm curious myself. I wouldn't want Goodfellow dying before we ever resolved our duel. That would be unfortunate.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from Winter's Passage

“Everything is change; and you cannot step twice into the same river.”
― Mary Renault, quote from The Last of the Wine
