She can go with us to the lab and keep Myrnin pinned down while we pull the plug, if he’s not… you know, better.””Define BETTER with that guy.””Not all fangs and raaaaar.

Here,” Myrnin said, his voice still gentle and low. “Amelie said you had to work. No one said you had to work alone.” He picked up the next part and slotted it in, took the screwdriver from Claire’s numbed fingers, and fastened it with a couple of deft, fast movements. “I’ll be your hands.”She wanted to cry, because it was so sweet, but it wouldn’t do any good.
Quote from Rachel Caine, Fade Out
She came awake, stomach rumbling, and opened her eyes to see a plate being held right under her nose. When she reached for it, Shane snatched it back. ‘Nuh-uh. Mine.”Share!’ she demanded.’Man, you are one grabby girlfriend.’She grinned. It always made her feel so fiercly warm inside to hear him say that- the girlfriend part, not the grabby part. ‘If you love me, you’ll give me a taco.”Seriously? That’s all you got? What about you’ll do sexy, illegal things to me for a taco?”Not for a taco,’ she said. ‘I’m not cheap.”They’re brisket tacos.”Now you’re talking.
Myrnin, who hadn’t said much, suddenly reached out and wrapped his arms around her. She stiffened, shocked, and for a panicked second wondered whether he’d suddenly decided to snack on her neck… but it was just a hug. His body felt cold against hers, and way too close, but then he let go and stepped back. “You’ve done very well. I’m extremely proud of you,” he said. There was a touch of color high in his pale cheeks. “Do go home now. And shower. You reek like the dead.”Which, coming from a vampire, was pretty rich.
