Quotes edit see section history

  • “I claim you as my life mate. I belong to you. I offer my life for you. I give to you my protection, my allegiance, my heart, my soul, and my body. I take into my keeping the same that is yours. Your life, happiness, and welfare will be cherished and placed above my own for all time. You are my life mate, bound to me for all eternity and always in my care.”
  • “You're European, aren't you? Wealthy, and very, very arrogant.”
    Raven
  • “Death and damnation could wait another day while he satisfied his curiosity.”
    Mikhail
  • “That isn't an excuse to take away free will. And you don't use a push anyway; you issue a command and demand compliance.”
    Raven
  • “Did you kidnap me or rescue me?" "Perhaps a little of both.”
    Raven and Mikhail
  • “Do not disobey me in this,Raven. This man touched you, hurt you, and I see no reason for his existence.”
    Mikhail
  • “Did I happen to mention, Miss Whitney, that the last person impertinent enough to beat me at chess was thrown in the dungeon and tortured for thirty years?”
    Mikhail
  • “I think you know what's between us would be worth nothing if you forced me to do your will in everything.”
    Raven
  • “Somehow I knew you would just have to have your way.”
    Raven
  • “See, I took care of the problem all by my little feminine self. Amazing, isn't it?”
    Raven
  • “Let us go home, Raven.'" "I don't think it's safe. You're the kind of man my mother warned me about.”
    Mikhail and Raven
  • “How can I protect the wind, Edgar?”
    Mikhail
  • “You have heard the legends and lies associated with your kind for so long, you are beginning to believe the nonsense.”
    Edgar
  • “It was beyond his imagination that such a miracle could occur. Just when he knew he would walk into the sun without hesitation, he had been sent an angel.”
    Mikhail
  • “It is death or vampire. We all know that.”
    Mikhail
  • “Unfortunately, you have the capability to force your will on anyone who might oppose you. And I would. All the time. I have to be myself, Mikhail.”
    Raven
  • “We are both blessed and cursed with longevity. For those of us who are happy, a long life is a blessing; for someone alone and tormented, it is a curse. It is one long eternity of darkness, a barren, stark existence.”
    Mikhail
  • “I need you with me. You chase away the shadows and lighten the terrible load that threatens to drown me.”
    Mikhail
  • “If you presented much more of a challenge, little one, my heart would never be able to take it.”
    Mikhail
  • “I'm so scared, macho man. Someone needs to drag you kicking and screaming into this century.”
    Raven
  • “Do you think I'm afraid of your wolves?" she demanded. "The only big bad wolf around here is you. Call all your wolves. Go ahead!”
    Raven
  • “That sounds so good, Mikhail, so twentieth century, but somehow I think it's more likely I would be the one compromising.”
    Raven
  • “Do one of your sleeping numbers on yourself, or teach me how to do it. I'll be more than happy to put you out.”
    Raven
  • “Someone has to show you what love is, Mikhail. Not possession or ownership, but real unconditional love.”
    Raven
  • “You must make him completely crazy. The hotshot thing was great. I would be willing to bet it was the first time he was ever called that.”
    Jacques
  • “Mikhail is fine. He's indestructible, my dear, a great jungle cat with nine lives. I have known him for years. Nothing will keep Mikhail down.”
    Father Hummer
  • “You completed the ritual with him. You are his other half. The light to his darkness. One can't be without the other.”
    Father Hummer
  • “At last, a man after my own heart. I'm glad someone besides myself gives him a hard time. He needs it, you know. All those people bowing and scraping. It's not good for him.”
    Raven
  • “When you touch me, Father, I know what you're thinking. Is a priest supposed to hate getting down on his knees?”
    Raven
  • “She will live because there is no other alternative.”
    Gregori
  • “Remind me to take you out back and teach you a lesson or two when I am feeling more myself.”
    Mikhail
  • “There is no you or me. There is only us.”
    Mikhail
  • “Please, Raven, let me just keep you in a cocoon, at least until I get that sight out of my mind.”
    Mikhail
  • “Sometimes grief brings things out in people better left hidden.”
    Raven
  • “You are a good man, Mikhail. You just have too much power for your own good. But don't worry; I know this American girl. She's very disrespectful and she'll take all that arrogant starch out of you.”
    Raven
  • “How do I divorce you?" "I am sorry, little one, I do not understand this word. In my language,please.”
    Raven and Mikhail
  • “So you see the beast you are tied to for all eternity. We are predators, after all, little one, and the darkness in us is only balanced by the light in our women.”
    Mikhail
  • “You are his lifemate. Without you, he would become the vampire of legends, a monster without equal in the human race.”
    Father Hummer
