“Did you just grab my butt?” I whispered. “What?” “Curran!” “Yes?” I could hear controlled laughter in his voice. Unbelievable. I sped up. “We’re tracking ghouls and you’re grabbing my butt.” “I always make sure to pay attention to important things.”

"Here… " Bunny? Kitty? "Here, cute creature thing… Don't be scared.”

“Just so you know: if a rakshasa shows up, I left my sword in the car.”

“Why is everyone calling me Consort?"
"Jim designated you as Consort in official papers. You don't want to be called Mate, calling you Alpha is confusing, and 'Beast Lady' makes people laugh.”

“So how was it?" she asked. "Kissing Curran?"

"Nope."
"My super mental powers must be getting rusty.”

“The stallion stared in my direction and bared his teeth. Now horses were giving me crap.”

“We have to get the Diamond. And Cesare’s head.”
They looked at me.
“Why the head?” Doolittle asked.
“Because it’s easy to carry and I can torture it for a long time.” And I didn’t just say it out loud, did I? I checked their faces. Yep, I did.”

“Well, check this out. Mine is bigger.”
