I miss you so fucking bad it hurts, but I don't know how to find you even though you're right in front of me.”

    “The staircase that was revealed was lit with a soft red glow.
    I feel like I'm walking down into a porn movie," V muttered as they took the steps with care.
    Wouldn't that require more black candles for you," Zsadist cracked.
    At the bottom of the landing, they looked left and right down a corridor carved out of stone, seeing row after row of...black candles with ruby color flames.
    I take that back," Z said, eyeing the display.
    We start hearing chick-a-wow-wow shit," V cut in, "can I start calling you Z-packed?"
    Not if you want to keep breathing.”

    “You never knew the last time you were seeing someone. You didn't know when the last argument happened, or the last time you had sex, or the last time you looked into their eyes and thanked God they were in your life.
    After they were gone?
    That was all you thought about.
    Day and night.”

    “Take off your coat."
    "Excuse me?"
    "Take it off."

    “V was half way down the hall when he heard a yelp. He hightailed it back, barging through the door. “What? What’s …”

    “I’m going bald!”

    V whipped back the shower curtain and frowned. “What are you talking about? You’ve still got your hair…”

    “Not my head! My body, you idiot! I’m going bald!”

    Vishous glanced down. Butch’s torso and legs were shedding, a rush of dark brown fuzz pooling around the drain.

    V started laughing. “Think of it this way. At least you won’t have to worry about shaving your back as you get old, true? No manscaping for you.”

    He was not surprised when a bar of soap came firing at him.”

    “I'm going to talk to her."
    "And how's that going to go? You're just going to walk up to her and say, 'Hey, I know you've never seen me before, but I'm your dad. Oh, and guess what? You've won the evolutionary lottery: You're a vampire. Let's go to Disneyland!”

    “Oh, man there's a marathon of Beaches running tomorrow night. Can we go after ten so I can see it once all the way through?"

    Everyone in the room turned to the blond-and-black haired guy, who was propped in the corner, massive arms over his chest.

    What," he said. "Look, it's not Mary Tyler Moore, 'kay? So you can 't give me shit."

    Vishous, the one with the black glove on his hand, glared across the room. "It's worse than Mary Tyler Moore. And to call you and idiot would be an insult to half-wits around the world."

    Are you kidding me? Bette Midler rocks. And I love the ocean. Sue me."

    Vishous glanced at the king. "You told me I could beat him. You promised."

    As soon as you come home," Wrath said as he got to his feet, "we'll hang him up by his armpits in the gym and you can use him as a punching bag."

    Thank you, baby Jesus."

    Blond-and-Black shook his head. "I swear, one of these days I'm going to leave."

    As one, the Brothers all pointed to the open door and let silence speak for itself.

    You guys suck.”

    “The front door flew open, and Mary shot out of the house, jumping off the porch, not even bothering with the steps to the ground. She ran over the frost-laden grass in her bare feet and threw herself at him, grabbing on to his neck with both arms. She held him so tightly his spine cracked.

    She was sobbing. Bawling. Crying so hard her whole body was shaking.

    He didn't ask any questions, just wrapped himself around her.

    I'm not okay," she said hoarsely between breaths. "Rhage...I'm not okay.”
    J.R. Ward, Lover Eternal
