Savor Quotes

“Smiling at me ruefully, Luka scratched the back of his head. “Yeah, I guess you can.” He sauntered toward the sliding doors. “I’ll be right outside if you need me. Call if you get dizzy.”
“You’ll probably just hear a very loud thump.”
He frowned at my joke. “Not funny.”
“Luka?” He stopped. “Thank you for keeping an eye on me.”
“Just…” He tsked. “Just don’t scare me like that again.”

“I spotted Dray standing to one side of the room and made my way to him. A mime accosted me along the way, but I did my best Russian-accented English and said, “In my country, we shoot mimes on the spot.” The poor guy blanched beneath his white make up and backed away.”

“I’d never seen a Christmas tree so big in person.
“Isn't she beautiful?” Deidra asked when she reached my side.
I’d been so busy gawking I hadn't heard her approach.
“It’s huge.” Again with the stating the obvious. “Where’d you
get it?”
“Gregory grows them at the edge of the property.”
Sure, because getting a tree that big so far from the city was
completely ludicrous. No wonder the entire house smelled of
pine. “How’d you get it in here?”
“Do you really want to know or do you want to help decorate it?”
Deidra picked up my bags of presents and brought them toward the
monster tree. They’d already wrapped it with white twinkle lights.
“I think I saw a squirrel in there,” I teased, finally able to
move. The closer I got the bigger the tree seemed.“Really?” one of
the guys said, stopping mid-chorus while the others continued. A
lock of gray hair fell over his forehead when he scanned the tree.
“I could have sworn we’d checked to make sure none of the tenants
were left over.”
I chuckled at his consternation. “Chill. I didn't really see one.”
Placing his hand at the center of his chest, he breathed a sigh
of relief. Afterwards he rounded the tree, making sure the squirrel
I’d joked about wasn't really there.
Mental note:don’t tease the servants.
They were way too dedicated.”
