#  Look who's talking,' Darren repeated, angrier this time…

![“Look who's talking,' Darren repeated, angrier this time. 'I might've welcomed her along in hunts, but I wasn't tripping over myself to talk to her every night. Everyone could see the way you looked at the girl. You weren't exactly subtle, you know. Ruth nearly had kittens every time the two of you…” quote by Julie Kagawa](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/004/julie-kagawa-241_allison-sekemoto_look-who-s-talking-darren-repeated-angri_2884979.jpg)   [Download](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/004/julie-kagawa-241_allison-sekemoto_look-who-s-talking-darren-repeated-angri_2884979.jpg) [Open image](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/004/julie-kagawa-241_allison-sekemoto_look-who-s-talking-darren-repeated-angri_2884979.jpg)

> ““Look who's talking,' Darren repeated, angrier this time. 'I might've welcomed her along in hunts, but I wasn't tripping over myself to talk to her every night. Everyone could see the way you looked at the girl. You weren't exactly subtle, you know. Ruth nearly had kittens every time the two of you went off to do something. So don't lecture me about getting attached, Zeke. You were falling for that vampire - we all knew it. Maybe you'd better check your own neck before you go pointing fingers at other people. Seems to me the vampire could've bitten you anytime she wanted - ””
