His mom always said that trust was something you earned. And it wasn't something you gave easy. Too often, it was a tool your enemies used to hurt you with. 'Give them nothing, baby. Not until you have no choice. The world is harsh and it is cold. People can be good and decent, but most of them are only out for themselves and they'll hurt anyone they can'.
Sherrilyn KenyonNo one can make you feel low unless you allow them to. Youโre not stupid, Alix. And youโre very beautiful. I just thought you should know that. (Devyn)
Sherrilyn KenyonI prefer sidekick. I tried once for the title of Padawan, but Bubba wigged out saying that mentors are always killed off in books and movies and heโd be damned if he was going to die once he taught me everything I needed to know about killing zombies. (Mark) Then why let you be his sidekick? Isnโt that the same thing? (Nick) Uh, no. In the movies, the sidekicks are the ones who die. (Mark)
Sherrilyn KenyonWe are coming up on the Sumerian apokalypsiโ. (Artemis) I donโt think they use that word. (Kat) Who cares what word they use? End of the world is end of the world regardless of whatever term you use for it! (Artemis)
Sherrilyn KenyonI take it that didnโt go well. (Cassandra) About like walking into a bear cave covered in honey. (Wulf)
Sherrilyn KenyonSo I take it you guys are going to stay inside my flat and not out in the hallway like my fatherโs guards? (Kiara) You know thatโs the most pathetic way to guard someone. (In a falsetto he added.) Please protect my life by being outside so that when they come in and kill me you canโt hear it. (Syn)
Sherrilyn KenyonFine, you fun-vampire. Iโll take my scroll over here and play by myself. (Kat) Fun-vampire? What is that? (Sin) That would be you sucking all the fun out of life. (Kat) You have the most interesting terms for things. (Sin) Yes, but notice mine are creative, unlike the so stellarly named Rod of Time. (Kat)
