The next Friday, I went to visit my favorite Englishman for game night. Justus groaned when I bragged about our plans for an all-night Godzilla marathon, but I knew he was glad to be rid of me.

I sprang to my knees and snatched it away. "What the hell did you say?"
"Only that I had you on your back. I made sure to sign my name."
"You idiot!"
I punched his shoulder and he smirked. "In-service massage?"
Silver: It's not what you think, Logan. I'll call you later. Miss u.
"It's your funeral. Logan is a Chitah."
Christian's eyes widened. "You're serious? You? And a Chitah?" He raked his fingers through his hair. "Shite, why didn't you tell me you were dating a fecking lunatic? Those bastards have a thing about hunting you for life. ~ Dannika Dark

If anyone uses my decision as a measure for how much or how little I love my son, then that's a person I don't want to know. This is harder than you can imagine, but I'm at peace. This was not a life I was meant to have. Fate stepped in, and he's right where he needs to be. There's a greater purpose for my son, and someday I'll be witness to the remarkable man he becomes. He has more than I could have given him, and what a blessing for that childless couple. ~ Dannika Dark

Bring your lips closer until they're touching mine." When I did, the heat was electric. "Can you feel that?" he asked, moving his lips from one corner of my mouth to the other.

We've been casual for the past week because of how fast things were moving, and I wanted to slow down and let you focus on your family. But now that we've watched a sitcom together, this needs to move to the next level. ~ Dannika Dark

Christian swiped the keys from my hand. "Maybe the fates want us to take the car home. Why do I have a feeling I'm going to regret this?
I smirked. "Is that what Viktor said before he hired you?"
"That's what your husband is going to say before reciting his vows."
"That's what every woman says before they have sex with you."
Christian swaggered toward the door, swinging the keys around his finger. "That's what I'm going to say before you serve our dinner tonight. ~ Dannika Dark

I was beginning to think that Simon just had a bad case of OCD, ADD, and PMS. With a little BS and OMG mixed in. ~ Dannika Dark

A free spirit is like the wind and can never be caught. But in four days, one man captured my heart. ~ Dannika Dark

There will always be enemies in life, and sometimes you can be your own worst enemy. The life I once lived was fueled with pain and hate. If I can give you two pieces of advice, it would be to not live in fear or anger, and to find the love of a good woman who accepts you for your faults, and because of her, you aspire to be a noble man who is worthy of love. ~ Dannika Dark

Love makes a man more loyal than fear. If you were mortally wounded and lying on the ground with enemies surrounding you and all was lost, how many of your men would risk their lives to die by your side?

If you don't love something, then it can be easily replaced, like your car. ~ Dannika Dark

Sorry, Jericho. I almost didn't recognize you with your dick in your pants. If you'll excuse me, I have to get home." I tried to flounce off, but walking in short steps with a paper sack around my hips wasn't a graceful way to make an exit. He rolled the truck beside me and the engine rumbled, but he didn't say a word. So I walked a little faster. He drove a little faster. Finally, I broke into a run. Jericho hit the gas and kept up with me. "Get in the goddamn truck, Isabelle." "No.""You're a female wolf running naked in the street. Get in." "I'm not naked," I panted. "I'm wearing recyclables."

And nobody wanted to tangle with my wolf from what I'd heard. She had a nasty temper and represented my alter ego with a proud wag of her tail. ~ Dannika Dark

But we're not born evil. His desire to reclaim what he lost blinded him from making the right choices. Sometimes what we desire the most can change who we are, and it's up to us to decide if that's for better or worse. You must learn to control those desires so that you're always on the right path, even if that means never attaining or holding on to the thing you want most. ~ Dannika Dark

When the only tongue you're getting is from your cat ... it's time to get out more. ~ Dannika Dark

Tears are not just for children. My mother once told me that a soul is a river and that the spirits give us teardrops when we have converged with another life. We overflow with them because our spirits become wider and deeper than before. Those who lack love or compassion will not be given the gift of tears. ~ Dannika Dark

Sometimes there are chapters in our lives we don't want others to read. ~ Dannika Dark

I loved the way he held me fiercely; every woman should know what it's like to be held by a man who would lay down his life for her. ~ Dannika Dark

Except with their life mate. I'd convinced myself those women possessed a secret love potion they weren't sharing with the general public - one that tamed the primitive ways of a Shifter and made them do romantic things like buy flowers and rub their woman's feet with scented oils. ~ Dannika Dark

That men will perish and women will rule the earth?" Hannah replied. "Sorry, wrong number. For that request, you'll need to ring the department in charge of flying pigs. Do you want me to transfer you? I think they're busy at the moment working on a snowstorm in hell. ~ Dannika Dark

Family isn't blood - it's who has your back. ~ Dannika Dark

I got butterflies when Reno turned to face me. He had a compelling appearance - handsome, but in a rough and dangerous "don't fuck with me" kind of way. Maybe it was the canvas of muscle that pressed against his tight-fitted shirt, or the sharp cut of his jaw, or the concealed weapon beneath his shirt. But it was definitely the stony expression on his face. His musky cologne filled my nose, and I waited impatiently for him to speak.

I was made to protect you, female. I've claimed you, whether you accept it or not, and it's an honor that I take very seriously. If any male lays an unwanted finger on you, I will break it. If you hunger, I will feed you. If you're cold, then I will warm you with my body. If you're taken from me, then I'll track you. Never doubt my devotion to you." He gripped my head firmly. "I once gave a woman my heart, because that's all I had to give. But you, Silver, you're the pulse that keeps me alive. I was a soft man once, but no more. I don't know if you can accept the man that I've become, because all I have to offer you is my life. I want to shred Tarek apart for the fear he's made you feel when looking at me. He's made you afraid of something that is natural to my kind - an expression of my passion. My fangs are not just weapons." His voice strained and I knew.

I knew.

Denying a part of him was denying him completely. Maybe someday I could look at them without flinching, but it was too soon. They represented power and passion in his world. But in my world, they were death and pain.

I stroked his cheek and he leaned into me and closed his eyes.

"Give me time, Logan."

He slipped his hand behind the nape of my neck and brought his lips close to my ear - words melting into a soft whisper. "I'll wait for you. ~ Dannika Dark

Don't pursue something with a vengeful heart, or it will destroy you. Hate wraps a cold hand around your heart and hollows you out.
- Justus ~ Dannika Dark

He slipped off my shoes and began massaging the soles of my feet with his skilled hands. If it's one thing a guitarist knows, it's how to use his fingers. ~ Dannika Dark

You look nice," he said, as a headlight splashed across the interior.
"Give yourself a pat on the back; you bought it. I really wish you didn't keep filling my closet. I'm never going to be able to pay you back."
"I would not take payment for something that is my duty."
That's what I liked about Justus; he would never admit that he enjoyed shopping for me. At first, I thought I wasn't up to snuff and he was trying to change me. As it turns out, it was the only way he knew how to express his affection. Wearing one of his dresses was the equivalent of a hug ~ Dannika Dark

My coping mechanism is denial. We'll be fine. ~ Dannika Dark

No man had ever offered me his heart. In three hours, one man offered me his life. ~ Dannika Dark

As it so happens, I like your mouth."
"It doesn't
"
"Challenge me?" He set the bottle down and moved to the end of the bed. "An outspoken woman makes the world a livable place. You have fire in you, and I would never put that out. ~ Dannika Dark

He circled around me, whispering in my ear. "I'm O positive. I'm everyone's type. ~ Dannika Dark

Life is more than a heartbeat, Mage. It's the essence of our souls and the fiber of our beings. It is the breath of imagination within our souls; it's the fire in our hearts that burns for change and progress. Extinguish the fire and you have killed the man, even if he still draws breath. ~ Dannika Dark

My eyes may not know all of you, but my heart does. I loved you before I was born, and I will love you long after I pass from this earth." Logan's ~ Dannika Dark

Life is here to teach us, so be a good student. Mistakes are the only way we learn. ~ Dannika Dark

That how you like 'em, Mr. Rockstar? Comatose?" a man heckled. In a smooth voice, Jericho walked by him and said, "That's how I got your old lady. ~ Dannika Dark

God and the devil took a vacation that night, leaving me alone with the shadow of death. ~ Dannika Dark

Old habits die hard, and sometimes the toughest addictions to shake are the ones that control our hearts. ~ Dannika Dark

We're stars, you know. Different, distant, young and old, but we're all made of the same stuff. We all shine just as bright as the next. ~ Dannika Dark

Ignore the past all you want, Nico, but eventually its going to make you pay attention. Why not face it on your own terms instead of waiting for it to destroy you? - Raven Black ~ Dannika Dark

Wheeler was the kind of guy I'd be wary to have in my section. His arms were covered with tattoos, and he wore a sleeveless shirt to show them off.
No smile touched his face behind the facial hair that surrounded his mouth but didn't extend up to his ears in a full beard. His scruffy brown hair was styled shorter on the sides and fell all over the place on top. He had a morose expression as he leaned on the table and sipped his whiskey, sliding his bright eyes up to mine without saying a word.

My face heated with embarrassment. The crossbreed member of Keystone - formerly known as the Shadow, a merciless killer - is now on the hunt for linens. Viktor ~ Dannika Dark

Then again, maybe we're all a little broken and just trying to find the glue that'll hold us together. ~ Dannika Dark

Did you get any blood on your breasts? I'm willing to go the extra mile. ~ Dannika Dark

That girl still owned his heart. All the bullshit aside, he wanted Isabelle back in his life. But it was too late. She had a man, and all Jericho had was his guitar. That's all he'd ever wanted, and that's exactly what he ended up with.

I wouldn't want to put out anyone's eye with my wit. ~ Dannika Dark

Simon laughed heartily. "I'm afraid the rest of us have to find talents to get our women into bed. Of course once they're there, I have other talents that keep them right where they are."
"Handcuffs hardly count," Christian said offhandedly.
"If you mean the ladies cuffing me to the bed so they can explore Hunt Island," he said, rubbing his chest, " ... then point taken. These hands are capable of making any female climax by the mere brush of a pinky across her bare breast."
"I must have gone to the wrong island," I said with a private laugh. ~ Dannika Dark

Walked around and hugged April so tight she let out a small fart. The both of us cracked up and I fell on the floor in hysterics. ~ Dannika Dark

Only trees are rooted in land, and there they stay. You should know this, great oak. But a man whose heart is rooted in family finds a home wherever his pack is, and he is truly the free man. ~ Dannika Dark

We had a magnetic chemistry, as if we'd known each other in another lifetime. ~ Dannika Dark

No woman had ever made his wolf pace restlessly. No woman had ever made him feel an inexplicable desire to behave irrationally, all for the sake of making her smile. No woman had ever made him want to be a better man, one who would spill blood to protect what he loved. No woman had ever incited the hunter in him. No woman had ever denied him. Except one. ~ Dannika Dark

We're all broken. Don't you see that? We're just pieces of ourselves, trying to fit with someone else to become whole. You and I fit. ~ Dannika Dark

Love shouldn't come with conditions. ~ Dannika Dark

You can spend the rest of your life living in the past, or you can pull up your trousers and move on." "Is ~ Dannika Dark

He looked at my blue eye and then my brown. "Your eyes are like heaven and earth, and I'm trapped somewhere in between. ~ Dannika Dark

Where did you meet?" he pressed on.
I shrugged and considered a little rephrasing. "I was out for a run."
"From who?"
I leaned back to take a long, very long, slow sip of that beer.
Knox leaned forward. "I think we're both bullsh*tting here, you ever play that card game?"
"With my grandma, every Sunday after church. ~ Dannika Dark

We were two Shifters from different worlds who found each other in a rainstorm. ~ Dannika Dark
