“He shrugged. “I do not assign duties.”
She nodded. “Oh.”
“Tiger does.”
Shit.
“Tiger is head of security.”
Double shit. She’d molested the damn head of security of the NSO at Reservation. Just bitchin’.”
“Her angel's pants were molded to a nice, beefy ass”
“You two are well matched. Both stubborn and irrational when it comes to each other.”
“Species tend to bite sometimes during the sharing of sex but we never break the skin. There are only two ways this usually happens. I had to bite you to assert my control if we fought for dominance during sex or because I wanted to mark you to show other males you belonged to me.” He blinked. “I am sorry. I lost control and I wanted to completely own you in that moment. I wanted all of you.”
“If I were ever interested in taking a mate, you would be her, Zandy. That’s what makes you dangerous because you make me consider it.”
“I could stay inside you forever.”
“I wouldn’t complain.”
“I could mount you until I die.”
“You’re the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen,” she admitted to him softly. “I may as well do what I want to most right now since I’m going to hell anyway, right?” His”
“The only things more pathetic than a moron are the ones who follow him.” She”
“It seemed that angels carried a cherry flavor in their mouths and it was her favorite.”
“You could say she was having difficulty breathing but I doubt they will believe that is CPR.” Her”
“I don’t need to own a super nose to feel addicted to you. My heart already is.” His”
“I can carry you. You won’t need to walk. It will give me an excuse to keep you flat on your back.” Damn.”
“I never thought I’d see the day when a little female would take you down. This is what they call priceless.” Anger”
“I never thought I’d see the day when a little female would take you down. This is what they call priceless.”
“He was magnificent—a god. Not a god, a small voice of consciousness stated. He’s got to be an angel.”
“She looks a little small though and would probably be frightened of us.” Tiger remembered her pulling his hair at the base of his neck to jerk his face down to meet her lips after she’d demanded he kiss her.”
“You are so beautiful right now. Your lips are swollen from my kisses and your eyes are such a pretty shade of green. They remind me of a beautiful meadow when I look into them.” She grinned. “You’re the beautiful one. Trust me. You’re the most beautiful man I’ve ever seen. You’re like a living sculpture of the perfect man.” He grinned. “You mean an angel?”
“I love it. This is the best surprise ever, Tiger. No one has ever done something for me like this before.” She blinked back more tears. “Thank you.” His features smoothed out. “You are worth all the time I spent setting this up.” He carried her to the edge of the picnic spread and put her on her feet.”
“Then there was David, lording it up at Buckingham Palace, thinking he was king of the shit heap. That guy was definitely nuts, like every dictator that had gone before him. Nero, Caligula, Henry the Eighth, Napoleon, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, Margaret Thatcher, Colonel Gaddafi, that crazy North Korean bastard who was in Team America, Kim Jong whatever.”
“Few could match her wisdom, and fewer still her stubbornness.”
“I tend to flood and freeze up if I’m feeling overwhelmed. When this happens, it’s usually because I feel like the world is crashing down and all is lost. One trick I’ve learned is to force myself to make a list of what’s actually wrong. Usually, soon into making the list, I find I can group most of the issues into two or three larger all-encompassing problems. So it’s really not all that bad. Having a finite list of problems is much better than having an illogical feeling that everything is wrong.”
“These are hard memories, and I will save the rest of the story for another time.”
“A simple touch, but it speaks so much to me. It’s the way I would touch Circ—the way he would touch me. More’n a touch—a feeling. These two mean a great deal to each other, that much is as clear as the cloudless sky above us.”
BookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.
We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.
Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
