• “If you got Marian pregnant, you damn well better have a girl, because if you don’t, I will twist your cock off. I swear it”

  Daemon

• “We knew Daemonar couldn’t stay with us anymore when I went into rut, and when Marian recognized the signs and got him down to Merry and Briggs before I . . The boy wanted *you*. His Uncle Daemon. Who isn’t Eyrien. Who doesn’t fly or fight—at least in a way he understands yet—but who knows lots of things. He doesn’t want you to be Eyrien. He wants to be with you because he loves you.”

  Lucivar

• “Don’t you give your wife outstanding sex every night?” “Yes, but outstanding is a bit more special on some nights”

  Daemon answering Surreal

• “Apparently there are rules when there is a family crisis.”

  Surreal

• “Sugar, to an Eyrien male, being bullied *is* a kind of pampering. Don’t ask me why, but sometimes nothing says ‘I love you’ to a male better than getting a whack upside the head.”

  Surreal

• “She walked into the eyrie, leaving him out there to ponder the perversity of his own gender and the mystery of hers.”

• “Some people need a hard lesson in order to learn and grow—and some people ARE the hard lesson.”

  Jeanelle

• “She used to be a gentle hearth witch before she had to deal with all of us.”

• “You’re entitled to your anger,” Saetan said quietly. “And it’s your choice how long you hold on to it. But people make mistakes. Most of the time, mistakes can be forgiven. Some mistakes do enough harm to break what two people feel for each other. Sometimes the anger doesn’t go away, and that means you need to walk away.”

• “Strong women can get bitchy about Protocol when they think you’re being bossy or overprotective or whatever damn thing they think you’re being. Sometimes it’s smart to give in, but if you know you’re right, set your heels down, boyo, and be a polite, courteous wall.”
