Yeah. Just keep the live feed going so that I can see it and pretend Iโm there, too. (Tory) Yes, my queen. Anything else youโd like? (Geary) A million dollars and Brad Pitt. (Tory) You forgot world peace. (Geary) Iโm feeling a bit selfish today. Teenage hormonal overdose, I think. Or just general excitement. (Tory)
Sherrilyn KenyonBelieve me, I know and I almost made the same mistake you did. Evil is seductive. Itโs what makes the two of them so dangerous. (Jericho) No. Itโs our willingness to believe their lies and to see what we want to see that makes it so dangerous. Even when we know better, we lie to ourselves and thatโs where the true betrayal is. (Jared)
Sherrilyn KenyonHow many demons and people are enslaved here? (Jericho) Define slavery. (Asmodeus) Kept against their will. (Jericho) Good definition. Counting me? (Asmodeus) Why not? (Jericho) Probably a couple of millionโฆyou know itโs really hard to count to a million, plus theyโre always dying and new ones are coming in. I tried to count once, but it got really depressing so I stopped. The constant adding and subtracting. Not my forte, really. (Asmodeus)
Sherrilyn KenyonShutup, lapdog, this isnโt your fight, either. Boy, you better counsel that tongue before you find yourself without it.
Sherrilyn KenyonWhat are you? (Zarek) Iโm a nymph. (Astrid) I hope you just left an important syllable off that word, princess. (Zarek)
Sherrilyn KenyonBecause people learn from their mistakes, Danger. Pain and failure are a natural part of life. It's kind of like a parent who watches their child fall down while learning to walk. Instead of coddling the child, you set them back on their feet and let them try again. They have to stumble before they can run. (Alexion) Do you really believe that we need to have our hearts ripped out? (Danger) A flower can't grow without rain. (Alexion) Too much rain and it drowns. (Danger) And yet the most beautiful of the lotus flowers are the ones that grow in the deepest mud. (Alexion)
