Ben showered, dressed and came downstairs to find Nikolas impatiently tossing keys in his hand and saying something to Radulf in Russian. He usually switched to Russian for Radulf so no one else could understand their private conversations about Ben and his various inadequacies.

Part Two, Epilogue

“Why are you being like this?” He faltered. “Oh, did I vomit on you last night?”
Nikolas laughed. “No. Not this time."

Part Two, Chapter Seventeen

“Why don’t you ever want a photo of me?”
Nikolas appeared surprised. “I have your face permanently in my mind whether you’re present or not. Why would I require a photograph to take the place of that?”

Part One, Chapter Three

His mind then wandered back to the cause of his current unease. He’d not told Ben the full story, of course. He’d never once told Benjamin Rider the full story about anything in his life. Why break a good habit now?

Part One, Chapter Six

“But don’t tell Ben I’ve admitted any of this. You’ll find as you grow older that it’s best not to tell people just how much you love them, for the uncertainty of not knowing makes them want you more. Agreed?”

Ben narrowed his eyes. “You are seriously scary sometimes.”

Part One, Chapter One

“In some cultures, people eat parts of a body of a loved one so their spirit will remain with them forever. I’m not averse to eating people. I’ve had practice, after all.”
“Oh, you’re so sick…no! They were dead first!”
Ben gasped and tried to roll away as Nikolas bit him. It was only because he was laughing at Ben’s horrified expression that he lost his grip and had to let go.
“Pity. You taste nice.”
“I’m never sleeping soundly alongside you again.”
“Good. I’ll be worshiped and feared. What god could ask for more?”

Part One, Chapter One

“You’re extremely annoying. But you’re my better half—the conscience I don’t have. We’ll do it your way then.”

Part One, Chapter Four

They heard a car crunch on the gravel. They stared at each other. Ben narrowed his eyes. “This is the fastest I’m ever going to see you move, isn’t it?”
