Kindle Notes & Highlights
He needed to complete the bond through the Blood Rites, especially since there was another Canis lupus in town claiming Jacque for his own. Once the bond was complete, no other male could dispute whose mate she was.
Time to throw down, little girl
“You’re a Romanian werewolf prince, your dad is the werewolf king, you are bossy, possessive, and territorial by nature which if you were just a wolf would mean you’d pee on what you want to mark as yours.”
What a great guy, def do a BLOOD RITE with him
Jacquelyn finished with a question.
Why is she suddenly Jacquelyn now?
“Yeah, I get that, not that it’s easy to believe, but I understand the logistics of it,”
I'm glad someone does because I don't
Fane laughed out loud at her embarrassment, which caused everyone in the room to look at him. He couldn’t help himself.
The idea of them having a silent conversation while everyone else in the room just stares at them is so awkward.
The markings on the female are meant only for her mate to see. If another male sees them, he is looking at something he is not supposed to. The markings are precious to the rightful male mate because it is the first thing that indicates the she-wolf is his.
So no bathing suit ever again
“Jen, Sally, I love you guys, but zip it, okay?” Jacquelyn asked them in exasperation.
THANK YOU JACKJACJAQUEJAQUELYN
“Once again my parade is saturated in the downpour of hurricane Sally,” Jen retorted.
please for love of my sanity stop quipping
Jacque continued to hold Fane’s hand
Oh we're back to Jacque
legs Indian-style,
No
I will mark you and take your blood by biting you.”
Gross
“YOU ARE GOING TO WHAT ME?” She was completely caught off guard by his revelation. I mean, when he said exchange blood, I was thinking a finger prick, a little embarrassment because I’d have to suck on his finger and vice versa, but biting me, that is in a whole other category of embarrassment.
Wait, is the author adding her thoughts now?
But call her crazy, which at this point she was bound to be, she could just picture herself craving a Snickers ice cream bar in the middle of the night while a raging thunderstorm wreaked havoc outside, here came Fane knocking on her window, soaking wet, with a Snickers in hand. That could be kinda handy.
this entire passage went haywire
“Relax, Luna, I’m not going to bite you anywhere you might one day like,” Fane said.
Definitely don't make this fun or pleasurable for her, that would negate the entire creepy possessive aspect of dominating a girl who may or may not want it.
“Moving along, love, I will bite you on your neck.
How do you know she won't like this one day?
Rest assured, Luna, I am a werewolf, but at least I’m not a vampire.
Are....vampires real too?
I get that when you bite me you will get blood in your mouth and yadda, yadda, but how are you going to leave a mark on me?” Jacque asked.
I assume a human bite would scar a little
Once we have consummated our mating, the smells will intensify greatly,” Fane explained.
*smelling intensifies*
“Oh, shut up already, you over-possessive, royal Romanian pain in the proverbial backside.
Jack actually hates this guy AS SHE SHOULD
neck. I assure you that once I do, you will never need to think of another again.”
get over yourself
Fane grinned at her wickedly. “I could demonstrate again. It is proven that people are most likely to remember things when done three times.”
yo she is obviously not into this fane, can you please back off?
Fane leaned forward again, and this time Jacque leaned back, but he wasn’t deterred. He just grinned and leaned closer.
I am more and more furious with each passing line.
“You mean to tell me, my puțin foc, little fire, you did not enjoy my demonstration? If you did not, then I did not do it correctly, and I would feel obligated to try again.”
I am murderous
Evasion was not working, so it was time to move on to plan B: If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em.
No Jack plan B is a quick eye-gouge and then running the hell away
Yeah, yeah, I’m a chicken s** t, so be it.
Why would Jen call you a chicken shit? Why can't we use the word shit?
“How do you like them apples, wolf boy?” Fane leaned forward to get away from her mouth, and she could see the quick rise and fall of his back from breathing quickly.
Sexual harassment is supposed to be fun, Jack! You're not even doing it right :( :( :(
I don’t like the fact that you were intimate with him when that is my right alone.” Fane closed his eyes and took slow deep breaths, pressing his fingers to the bridge of his nose.
please shut up you absolute nightmare
“I love you, my Luna. I was made to love you, to protect, and provide for you. Never hesitate to tell me or ask me for what you need.”
Why did she not expect this? Hasn't he been pretty much saying this the whole time?
She was tilting her head to the side like wolves do to show submission, and like a female would do for her mate to fulfill the Blood Rites.
are these the werewolf tendencies we were not privy to earlier?
When they finally parted, Sorin positioned himself directly in front of Fane, put his hand over his heart, bowed slightly, and turned his head to expose his neck.
cool, seems real awkward
Then she figured what the hey. How often did she get to hanker after hot Romanians?
Isn't it what the hay? And hanker is an odd word choice?
“I would hope you don’t hanker after any other … Romanian,
Did he forget his nationality?
“Fane, you conveniently forgot to tell me how I take your blood,” Jacque told him. “I didn’t forget. I thought that would be obvious, love,” Fane replied. “You get to bite me back.” Fane winked at her, grinned, then turned to walk back to the Henrys’.
Scream it out the window, kids.
“No, it was from Steven, the salesman from the dealership.
Wolfman Steve
“My name is Lucas Steele.
Of course it is
“There is no record of your pack. Therefore, I do not have to seek permission to be here.
Your forms were filled out in pencil instead of black ink, and were submitted after the registration cut off. You'll need to request an extension form and have your new paperwork delivered via secure courier.
“Da, yes.”
One or the other is fine. Just one.
“You know how this works, correct?” Lucas asked. “Regardless, let me refresh your memory.
we have readers to exposit to, son
If I win, this means you die, then I will take the female as my mate, and she will be bonded with me.
Aren't the bonds non-transferrable? Wasn't that like the point?
This was not how Fane had expected to start his senior year in high school.
Good job laying low, Fane
I will be coming by to inform her of my intentions.
Do...do you know her? Like, have they met? Is this another boy at school or....?
“Fane, are you alright? What’s wrong? Something’s wrong so don’t try to tell me it’s not ’cause I will kick your butt if you lie to me after that whole ‘there will be no half-truths and lies and blah, blah, blah,’ so spit it out.”
Why use four words when 4783 are available, it's not like we're trying to WRITE A DRAMATIC SCENE OR ANYTHING
As you know, while the challenge stands, you cannot attempt to bond with her or you forfeit.”
Forfeit what? If he bonds with her isn't it over? Is it like transferring the title to a car? I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
He felt his wolf stir as if to tell him he was lucky all that was left of the phase were glowing eyes.
Wolves eyes are always glowing
‘Hey, the front door is such a typical way to leave a place why not mix it up a bit, ya know, throw some vava in the voom and fall out of the window instead’?”
Jack I'm so tired please
He hated that he was causing her distress, especially since it was about to get worse.
You have done nothing but cause her distress since you arrived, you are a horrible boyfriend.
Fane wanted to have Jacquelyn sit by him, but he relinquished the idea, knowing she needed to be close to the people she trusted most.
god please calm down, it wasn't cute to begin with and is just exhausting now
What that means, Jacquelyn, is that Lucas and I will fight in our wolf forms. The one left standing will be your mate.”
I am extremely displeased with the disregard for Jack's consent in this. Extremely.
“You can’t third something, you dork. You just say ‘aye’ to show you are in agreement,” Sally told her. Jen just stuck her tongue out at Sally and ignored her comment.
shut up
