“Admirable? And she’s related to Rey? How come he’s such a weasel then?”“There’s a messed up weasel in every family. Look at you.” Lex smirked at his brother as he heaved himself off the couch and headed down the hall to the kitchen. He bent to grab a beer from the fridge and tossed one to Cade.“Ha ha, very funny. Call me Alpha when you say that,” Cade growled. ”

“Look at you. How did you happen to me?"Gods, shew as just going to cry if he kept this up."I just . . . there's no one else. Ever. It's you until I no longer draw breath.”

“Look, wolf boy, he’s gone. He came by, borrowed money,” she snorted, “took money—it’s not like I’ll ever see it again—and headed out. Told me that the Pack was looking for him, wanting to kill him.Even if I knew where he ran to, which Idon’t, I certainly wouldn’t tell someone out to hurt him.”

“You’re weird. I thought brothers were supposed to pretend their sisters were sexless.”…“I’m your brother, not an idiot. If he hurts you, I’ll crush him, but I want you to be happy. You want him and that’s enough for me.”

“friends will sit your ass down and give you the 'Come To Jesus' talk when you need it most.”

“Erin, I’d like to know you again. Can we do that?” He brushed the back of his knuckles down her cheek.”

“He found himself surprised by how much he enjoyed that they were taking it slow. Liked watching her gentle to him. Each time she did something that showed him how much she trusted him, pride flushed through him. She deserved all his attention on her as he got to know her on this entirely new level. It was achingly sexy, this dance they moved through. Delicious with anticipation. He let himself luxuriate in the slow woo, the seduction of it rather than a quick f*ck with someone he didn't plan to see in a week. He'd never used his sexuality like this, hadn't turned it up full blast to enchant a woman this way. But by God, he wanted her, and why not show her just exactly what she did to him?”
