Ironic. I'm here because of my inherent dangerousness, but it's my inherent politeness that makes me put up with this. With him. 
You want to go out?" he asks suddenly.I blink. "As in a date?"
"Yes. That's what a guy usually means when he asks that question.
Run from me, Grier Hadley, and I'll follow. I'll track you down and find you. 
What happened to you, baby? 
I wish for adventure.I wish to matter.
I wish for a home.
A heart of stone could never break. But it could feel fear. 
After running for my life from hunters, a girl with too much lip gloss doesn't register on my fear radar. 
No one to trust. No friends. A life of silence broken only with music. 
For some reason I hesitate to tell him where I live. I don't want to come across as the spoiled little rich girl that's fallen low. Even if I am. 
Before I sought truth. Now I seek justice. 
That's what I wanted. Something to enrich me, to make me feel better about the things in my life that I could never change." - Page 56 
You have my word. If you return with me, you won't be harmed. I'd die first. 
I wont let him have you. 
What good is safety if you're dead inside? 
He would be damned if he fell prey to love's debilitating thrall. 
Leaning down, he whispers for my ears alone. Prove them wrong. 
He turns slightly ... and smiles. Just a small smile, but lovely. Sexy. 
Feeling his heart, it occurs to me that it beats just like everyone else's. Like mine. 
Rage that old familiar friend that got him through the hardest of times.
Love brought out the worst in people, gave them free license to abuse each other. 
He feels it, too. His eyes widen. A lovely hazel. Green with flecks of brown and gold. The colors I love. The colors of the earth. 
I shrug like I don't care ... Like every fiber of my being isn't weeping in need for him 
Her heart was broken, but it had not stopped beating. 
He stares at me so darkly, so hungily that I can only nod. Agree. Of course, I feel it. "I do", I admit. 
Why do you care? I've ignored you for days."His smile fades. He looks serious, mockingly so. "Yeah. You got to stop that.
I thought you were gone, Pepper. It was bad enough to lose you the first time, but to lose you like that? I couldn't have dealt with that. 
The one voice I would hear even in death. A rotting corpse in the ground, I would sit up and take notice. 
I like your sister. A lot."I look at him dumbly.
He looks at me, lowers his voice to say, "I like you.
The worst evil of all is to leave the ranks of the living before one dies. 
What question?" I ask, breathless."Whether you're as beautiful in the morning as you are during the rest of the day.
I'll find you. I will. We'll be together again. 
Character is what you do when no one's looking. 
That's just ridiculous, I breathed, awe and lust swirling through me like some heady elixir. 
The heart that truly loves never forgets. 
I only know that I can't live without flight. Without sky and moist, breathing earth. 
You can't even see it. I'm the safest thing you'll ever find
