Quotes edit
-
“We will train together and live together." "And die together." Sinjin finished with a scowl.”
Rand Balfour, Sinjin Sinclair -
“If you are to sleep in your home, then so shall we. Let the minion sleep in tents. And do not forget vampires cannot survive in the sun, as you know, Randall. We need a place to shelter us from the daylight." "Then you can bloody well dig yourself a grave and sleep in it." "Excuse me, your honor, but I refuse to sleep in the dirt.”
Sinjin, Rand -
“How is everything with you relationship wise?" "I've sworn off anything that has a penis.”
Christa, Jolie Wilkins -
“Are you and Rand bonded, Jolie?" "Why do you care so much, Sinjin?" "If you and he are bonded, you and I can never be a possibility.”
Sinjin, Jolie -
“Do you think I'm attractive, Sinjin?" "Beautiful.”
Jolie, Sinjin -
“Bam, one dead vampire.”
Jolie -
“Love," he whispered and put his hand on the highest point of my thigh, just underneath my skirt. "Remember you are my human and you only live to worship me. You are not quite acting as well as you should." I leaned into him and whispered, "Get your hand off my thigh or I'm going to stake you.”
Sinjin, Jolie -
“Are you trying to piss me off more than I already am?" "I find your anger...sexy.”
Jolie, Sinjin -
“"...but resistance is futile...and I am gonna drink your blood...give you eternal life..." "So not only are you a vampire but you listen to songs about vampires?”
Say Hi to Your Mom- Blah Blah Blah, Jolie -
“Have you used one of those before?" "No." "Finally, there's something I can do that you can't.”
Jolie, Sinjin

Trent’s hands were on either side of his hips and his limp thingy just flopped to the side like even it was unimpressed. “Just wanted Jolie to see what she’s missing.” He sort of gyrated his hips until he was hula-hooping sausage style.
