I don’t want to fight with you.” Turning, I opened my mouth to say I didn’t want to fight with him either. But before I could, I saw the telltale flash out of the corner of my eye, and the next thing I knew, my arm was jerking out of his grasp. “If you don’t want to fight with her, maybe you shouldn’t suggest she team up with people who want to kill her,” my voice snarled. Archer backed up so fast he nearly stumbled, and I wasn’t sure I’d ever seen him look so freaked out. But he recovered quickly. “Elodie, if I wanted to talk to you, I’d do a séance or something. Maybe go on an episode of Ghost Hunters. But right now, I want to talk to Sophie. So clear out.” Elodie had no intention of doing that. “You always were a crappy boyfriend,” she said. “Once you left, I chalked that up to you, you know, not actually liking me. But unless I’m blind as well as dead, you really like Sophie. In fact, hard as it is for me to fathom, I think you love her.” Shut up, shut up, shut up! Screw that, she retorted. You two spend all your time making stupid jokes and being all witty. Someone has to get real. “What’s your point?” Archer asked, narrowing his eyes at me. Her. Whatever. God, this was getting confusing. “Cal loves her, too, you know. And the last time I checked, he wasn’t part of a cult of monster killers. I’m just saying that if you’re going have loyalties that divided, maybe it’s time to bow out gracefully.” You couldn’t say Elodie didn’t know how to make a dramatic exit. The next thing I knew, I was pitching forward into Archer’s arms, my head swimming. Archer clutched my waist and then abruptly shoved me at arm’s length. “Sophie?” he asked, looking intently into my eyes. “Yeah,” I said, my voice shaking. “I’m back.” His fingers loosened, becoming more of a caress than a grip. “So you can’t control when she swoops in like that? She can just take you over…whenever?” I tried to laugh, but it came out more of a cough. “You know Elodie. I don’t think anyone has ever controlled her.” Frowning, Archer pulled his hands back and shoved them in his pockets. “Well, that’s awesome.” I grabbed the railing to steady myself. “Archer…that stuff she said. You know it’s not true.” He shrugged and moved past me onto the steps. “Saying the most hateful things possible is like Elodie’s superpower. Don’t worry about it.” He paused and looked over his shoulder. “We should probably go tell Jenna what we found down here.” Oh, right. We’d just unearthed a whole bunch of demons. That probably trumped over relationship issues. Another few seconds passed. “Come on, Mercer,” Archer said, holding his hand out to me. This time, I took it.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Rachel Hawkins" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/rachel-hawkins/i-was-on-the-first-one-when-i-felt-his-fingers-encircle-my-wrist/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/24a/rachel-hawkins-379_last-time_i-was-on-the-first-one-when-i-felt-his-f_646324.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/24a/rachel-hawkins-379_last-time_i-was-on-the-first-one-when-i-felt-his-f_646324.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/24a/rachel-hawkins-379_last-time_i-was-on-the-first-one-when-i-felt-his-f_646324.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“I was on the first one when I felt his fingers encircle my wrist. “Sophie, come on.

His head jerked up, and I thought he might have been relieved to see me. But then he turned back to the Itineris, crouching down to pull something out of a black duffel bag at his feet. \"Never hurts to be prepared,\" he said. \"It just seems like overkill when you already have a dagger and I have supernatural magic at my disposal.\" \"'Superpowerful?'\" He stood up, a gold chain dangling from his fingers. \"let me remind you of two words, Mercer: Bad. Dog. \" I rolled my eyes. \"That was nearly a year ago. I'm way better now.\" \"Yeah,well,I'm not taking any chances,\" he said. For the first time, I noticed there was some sort of holster thing on his back. He slid the sword into it so the hilt rose over his shoulders. \"Besides,\" he added, \"I thought you might not come. After what happened the other night...\" he paused, studying my face. \"Are you all right?\" \"I will be when people stop asking me that.\" \"You know I had nothing to do with that, right?\" \"Yeah,\" I replied. \"And if you did have something to do with it, I will vaporize you where you stand.\" The corner of his mouth quirked. \"Good to know.\" He closed the distance between us, coming to stand entirely too close to me. \"What are you doing?\" I asked, hoping I didn't sound as breathless as I felt. He lifted his hands, and with surprising gentleness, placed the chain around both our necks. Looking down at it, I saw that the links were actually tiny figures holding hands. I'd seen it somewhere before. \"This is the necklace one of the angels is wearing in the window at Hex Hall.\" \"It is indeed.\" Reaching down to take my hands, he explained, \"It's also a very powerful protection charm, which we're going to need.\" I swallowed as we laced our fingers and stepped closer to the Itineris. \"Why?\" \"Because we're going a very long way.\" I involuntarily squeezed his fingers with mine. The last time I'd traveled through the Itineris, I'd only gone a few hundred miles, and that had made my head nearly explode. \"Where are we going?\" I asked. \"Graymalkin Island,\" he answered.

It was the same reason I hadn’t gone into the hut to find Mom, and why I’d skirted around Archer’s tent. I’d been nearly to the shore when I’d heard him softly call, “Mercer.” Kneeling in the doorway of his tent, his hair a mess, his Hex Hall uniform ridiculously wrinkled, he’d nearly broken my heart. And when I ran to him as soundlessly as I could and practically dove on top of him, I’d told myself that our kiss was just your normal boyfriend/girlfriend saying good morning thing. Even when he pulled me inside, the tent warm and cozy and smelling like him, I hadn’t let myself think that might be the last time I’d see him. And when he’d pulled me closer and murmured, “Mercer, I love-“ I had covered his mouth with my hand. “Don’t say that. Not now. Say it sometime when there is absolutely no chance of death on the horizon, okay?” He mumbled something beneath my palm, and I rolled my eyes as I pulled it away from his mouth. He dropped a kiss on the tip of my nose. “All I was going to say was that I love this tent you made for me. But I guess I can tell you again later. When you get back.” Curling my hand around the back of his neck, I’d pulled him down to me. “You better.” A blush creeping up my neck from the memory, I swung my gaze away from his tent and back toward the lake. I was coming back. I was going to be fine, and getting down into the Underworld to collect demonglass wouldn’t be hard at all. Maybe I’d make it back before lunch. Of course, I couldn’t make it back if I never left.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Rachel Hawkins" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/rachel-hawkins/but-the-main-reason-was-that-waking-her-would-ve-meant-telling-her/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/56f/rachel-hawkins-379_good-morning_but-the-main-reason-was-that-waking-her_1876131.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/56f/rachel-hawkins-379_good-morning_but-the-main-reason-was-that-waking-her_1876131.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/56f/rachel-hawkins-379_good-morning_but-the-main-reason-was-that-waking-her_1876131.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“But the main reason was that waking her would’ve meant telling her good-bye, and telling someone good-bye…” — Rachel Hawkins", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“The last time I’d been alone with Cal, he’d kissed me.
