Lightning Rod Quotes

“What can I say?" He motions to the distressed sedan. "I drive this piece of shit to compensate for my huge dick.”
― Vaughn R. Demont, Lightning Rod

“I'm sharing a loft with a dragon who snores like two chainsaws having angry sex.”
― Vaughn R. Demont, Lightning Rod

“...clearly, we're supposed to be together. If this were the internet, seventeen-year-old girls would be writing slash fiction about us as we speak.”

“You have fought for and claimed your names, and though you may be struck, you will never fall. And that…” His eyes moisten, fear tingeing his voice, no, it’s apprehension. He takes a breath, steels himself. “And that is why I love you.”

Seconds pass as his words settle in. I know what he wants to hear, what he aches to hear, what his eyes plead me for. But I can’t tell him that because he wants to hear it back. I can’t tell him that because it might be what he’s pinning his hopes on, a bulwark he’ll set against madness. I can’t tell him that because Heath could never get a guy like him. I can’t tell him that because I don’t want him to be alone, or because I don’t want to be alone. I can’t tell him that because of a million stupid reasons that he would eventually see through, and resent me for. I can’t lie to him.

“I love you, Cale.”

I tell him because I mean it.”
― Vaughn R. Demont, Lightning Rod
