“Is that for me to do my work as the Chosen One, I need Bran to help me. So you must find a way to help him save his wings, or he stays here with us as a demon. If you force him to leave, I leaving with him. If he goes, I go, too.”

“Can't we kidnap Old Jethro, force him to help us, then vanquish him and the healer?"Bran choked on his drink.”

“I vow right here and now that you, Bran Llyr are my chosen mate. With the sun, stars, the waters, the air and the earth as my witnesses, I will love you through eternity.”

“„I bet she's hot,” Sykes said. „Most demonesses are total babes,” He and Remy bumped first.I shook my head. They really had one-track minds. „She's okay, if you like big boobs and girls who curse like sailors.”„Me like.. me like,” Sykes said, bobbing up and down.I glared at him. „Too bad. Next time we meet, I'm vanquishing her.”Izzy grinned. „That's the spirit.”

“He was more anal than usual tonight. I asked him a simple question and he nearly bit off my head.”

“You see, Bran Llyr is now one of us, a Cardinal Guardian.”

“How I loved him. Wih every cell in my body and every breath I took. Thank goodness he was there today to share my worst moment and joke about it.”
