Quote

We would not have hurt the child, even if she is our natural enemy. Nor would we have hurt you, if it could be helped. Finn was killed by a male cat, and in exchange for that information, we also agreed to try to remove the female cats from your encampment before the true melee begins.” Melee?! Were these ninja birds? Green Berets with feathers?

You think he left a big flashing arrow pointing to a filing cabinet labeled 'Evidence Here!'? He's a Stray, Ethan, not Wile E. Coyote!

But all I said, as I dug a five from my pocket to pay for my soda, was, You have a friend? Tod scowled.

He took both of my hands, twisting to face me more fully on the flattened box beneath us, and again the colors in his irises seemed to pulse with my heartbeat.

So could we please not mob the three-thousand-plus-year-old reaper like tweens at a boy-band concert?

Are you going to deliver whatever threat Avari sent you with, or are we going to have to start guessing? Tod said. I gotta warn you, I'm insanely good at charades.
