"Several inches over six feet tall and broad, Patrick would be intimidating if he weren't a vampire; and weren't angry; and if you weren't sitting naked at his feet.
He looked at me as I tried to explain, 'He was cursed by a witch--'
'A witch?' Patrick turned his glare back to Caleb, who froze with his pants half on.
'Not his fault!' I said."

"Burt was spooked. 'What kind of animal does that? And then just leaves it?'
'And where’s the big guy?' Carl asked. 'Maybe the thing left this one and dragged the big one off.' They stared at each other. What kind of animal could carry off a man my size?" ~ Private Security |
"'You think the appearance of the cat, a toy stuffed animal, is causing the disasters?'
'I think it's related,' he said.'Not an omen, but...' 'A harbinger?' 'That's the word.'" ~ Lavender Blues |
"'What's weird is how the lights go out when it happens,' Mitch said.
'What lights?" 'All of them. On buildings,around parking lots; on the streets and sidewalks. It's like a path of darkness is created wherever this person or thing is going.'" ~ Stealing Spirits |
"'What is it?'
'A dead cat,'Josiah said. 'Thanks,Sherlock.' The cat didn't move, but I knew it could. 'What kind of dead? Ghost? Vampire? Body possessed by a demon?' 'It's not really the cat I'm worried about,' he said. 'It could be a small part of something...bigger.'" ~ Paws From the Past |
