Wait, Saturday night? The ladder-backed chair creaked and I looked up as he leaned forward to eye me in growing suspicion. I thought you stayed home. I shrugged and raised one eyebrow at him. I thought I was human.

More quotes by Rachel Vincent
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.
Rachel Vincent
He’s not like you, Tod. Aside from a couple of notable exceptions, you tend to think things through, but Nash is ruled by his heart—
Rachel Vincent
Some day soon, reaper, your mouth is going to be the source of your own destruction. That does seem likely, doesn’t it? Tod glanced at me and shrugged. Until then, it remains a source of my own amusement.
Rachel Vincent
Pain is what I feed from when nothing else will nourish the noxious fury in my heart. It’s what I cling to when everything else—everyone else—slips right between my grasping fingers.
Rachel Vincent
I’m glad you think so. I’ve always considered my sense of humor to be largely underappreciated, so it’s nice to finally meet a fan.
Rachel Vincent
You two are cracked, Tod snapped. My smile widened. Says the undead man in love with the soulless pop star.
Rachel Vincent
She watched me with a creepy sort of detached curiosity, as if I were a bug crawling across the sidewalk in front of her. I wondered briefly if she was the ant stomper type.
Rachel Vincent
Nash has been the sun lighting up the horizon of my life, outshining everything else in my world. I'd thought once that he was to good to be true. Turns out I was right.
Rachel Vincent
Now if you’ll excuse me, Death waits for no man. Except me.

So, we wait until tomorrow night, and when you say the word, I cross over and haul you both out. Right? That's it? With any luck, yes. Luck? We were depending on luck? Nash is so screwed.
Rachel Vincent
Then strong, warm arms wrapped around me from behind. I've got you, Tod whispered in my ear.
Rachel Vincent
When he finally stopped calling, the hush felt strange. It felt like the whole world went silent when Marc did, as if I could see peoples mouths moving, but I couldnt hear what they were saying. Like I'd gone deaf.
Rachel Vincent
Like I'm going to pass up an opportunity to smack your cousin.
Rachel Vincent
Congratulations. Your official super-nerd badge is in the mail.
Rachel Vincent
I couldn't see who swam in the darkness, who wore shadows like a second skin.
Rachel Vincent
It's kind of like when a clock battery runs down. The hour and minute hands don't disappear, but they don't keep ticking either. They freeze on the last minute they measured.
Rachel Vincent
Had I just begged for an audience with Death?
Rachel Vincent
The queen was my favorite chess piece. Unlike the women I knew in real life, she was powerful. Her job was to defend her husband at all costs, because while he was weak and practically defenseless—only allowed to move one square at a time—she was the strongest player on the board, hindered by no restrictions at all.
Rachel Vincent
Regret couldn't fix what he's broken. Apologies couldn't bring back what he's lost. What we'd lost.
Rachel Vincent
She wasn't feeling nothing. She was feeling too much. She was blocking it all out. That was a survival skill, and her still-beating heart was proof that it worked.
