Quotes edit see section history

  • ““How does Parker’s body compare with yours?”Great. A pop quiz, I thought, recognizing his transition into lecture mode.“How does Parker’s body compare with mine? Hmm.” I gave Parker a quick, theatrical once-over, and he smiled, clearly catching on to my line of thought. “Nice legs and killer biceps. But I have better boobs. No question.”My father frowned, but not before a flicker of amusement flashed across his face.”
    Fayther & Greg Sanders
  • “He stopped and turned to face Ethan, his expression even more stern than usual. “And while we’re discussing your social life…are you properly prepared for your date this evening?”I nearly choked trying to hold back laughter, and both Vic and Marc shook with their own efforts.“Yeah, I’m good. Thanks for asking.” Ethan slapped my father’s shoulder, as if he were talking to one of the other guys, rather than the Alpha. “I’m glad we could have this little talk.”“I’m serious, Ethan.” My father’s expression darkened. “The world isn’t ready for your offspring. And neither am I.””
    Greg & Ethan Sanders
  • “"you have to push the button to make that work," He said. His expression completely serious. "Thank, smart-ass."”
