Nykyrian Quote by Sherrilyn Kenyon
““Were you hurt?” (Nykyrian) Syn shifted, some of his anger diminishing. “No.” (Syn) “Then why are you having a fit?” (Nykyrian) Syn laughed. “I don’t know, it just felt right. You see why I don’t like being sober? I overreact like an old woman.” He opened his flask, then slammed it down on Nykyrian’s desk. “Figures the damned thing would be empty.” (Syn)””
