There was a little too much outside interference.
As sweet as she is, I almost wish I'd given her something a little less lethal.
He was a little resentful of the time she spent with the other boys.
The little girl pushed the pages until satisfied, and Deidre didn't have the mental power to tell her it wasn't normal to start mid-book.
You mean those little kids are angels?
Death … you used to take care of the really old angels, and Gabe visited the little ones all the time.
At one point, she thought he cared for her a little.
He'd done what little he was willing to do to his own mate to keep her upset.
You have much to learn about diplomacy, little brother.
The air felt a little heavier around her as he spoke, compelling her attention to him.
He had a bottle in his hand and twisted the cork free with little effort.
A little higher, and he'd be able to tell what color underwear she wore.
There are strings attached to anyone raised from the dead-dead, but these are of no concern to a deity like they might be to a little human like you.
If nothing else, you know he's safe, and so are the little humans.
Very little surprised him, but the death dealer's question did.
Katie ignored the glare leveled on her while the woman cooed to the little boy.
When she felt ready to snap, the black lady returned with the little boy in tow.
The little boy followed her.
The little boy ran to her side.
Katie turned to stare at the little boy, who beamed a smile.
He found himself lingering, wanting to feel a little less alone.
When it'd finished, she felt little pain, and the heat was completely gone.
You talk big behind those bars, little girl.
The monster across the hall was no option, and Jared was little better.
Not so tough now, are you, little girl?
He remembered little about how to deal with humans and nothing of how to deal with their women.
Wouldn't go out walking alone after dark if I was you, little girl.
Not so tough anymore, are you, little girl.
His little mortal had come after him.
She's just a little human.
Assume I never knew this underworld existed before a little over a week ago.
One stupid little human is so much easier to kill than a few billion, and you chose duty instead.
Have you learned some control of that demon power, little brother?
She bristled, feeling as if she'd been sentenced to nothing more than a sewing circle for good little wives.
There were wide eighteenth- century ball gowns, women in little black dresses, one in a fifties poodle skirt, and several in dark dresses with ornate brocade on the bodice, like that of wealthy Middle Age royalty.
Just say yes, you'll do anything for your friend, and I'll spare him a little longer.
She knew very little of Hannah's friends, except they were all richer than sin.
Going to the little girl's room.
He wished Andre had stuck around a little longer, so he could.ve asked him what to do.
Fear fluttered through her, and her gaze flew to Kris, whom she trusted little more than his sadistic brother.
He.d spent most his life in Hell and remembered little of the Immortal world.
You.ve always been a little melodramatic, Katherine.
You can say it—she turned out a little rough around the edges!
You aren.t worried I.ll tell him your little secret?
Our last one was about guarding your little meat-cicle, right, Rhyn?
Despite telling her he wouldn.t, he dropped into her thoughts to feel a little closer to her and was surprised to find she was packing to leave.
That little thing is yours.
This fact did little to assuage Jade.s guilt when he saw the slaughter around the place he.d once called home.
You brought a snack to our little party.
I.m impressed, little sis.
One counter was still standing next to the refrigerator tucked in a corner, and he swept the broken glass from the top to create a little work space.
Her gaze settled on the statue of Rhyn, whose large eyes held an ominous look too old for his chubby little face.
Daniela.s little legs moved fast, and she was across the courtyard while Kris stared toward the room where Rhyn assumed his mate was.
I.ll come back in a little bit.
We're going out in a little bit.
It twisted its odd little face to look at her and sniffed at her arm with its small trunk.
Their traditions are a little different.
Her thoughts went to the prisoner, and she wondered if she'd see him again if she stayed a little longer.
To them, she was an exotic little doll with her huge, gem-hued eyes, black hair, and toned hour-glass shape.
None of your savage brothers would properly complement such a beautiful little treasure, Romas, the woman had said with gentle humor.
She reminded him of the little dolls his youngest sister had rejected several sun-cycles before.
She gazed up at him with angry eyes, and he stepped forward until her lush little body was pinned by his to the wall.
Kiera liked her mind the way it was, liked roaming through the hallways and spending the mornings in training with the little boys out back.
It was a good, perfect little life, so much more than she ever expected, with the exception that her best friend in the universe-- Kiera-- might as well have been dead to her as far as Romas and his clan were concerned.
Evelyn had little regret for her actions in life, even those she probably should have.
Kiera frowned, offended Ne'Rin thought so little of her, but not surprised.
He said little else, and her breathing soon fell into rhythm with his.
She cursed herself, aware she had accomplished little as far as advancing her rights but managed to draw the guaranteed attention of a man she was not certain she wanted to notice her.
Kiera was more than a little surprised when he raised his sword for what would have been a death blow.
Having been raised to serve his dhjan within the boundaries imposed on him, Ne'Rin would have little patience with one who trounced the boundaries that should have been emplaced upon her.
They nearly reached the women's wing when the strange little Council member with white eyes called out to her.
I know you get little enough as it is.
A little late to matter, Kiera said with a shrug.
She'd known her friend to be a little arrogant, but this was something different.
The odd little man was the loyal ally A'Ran considered him!
Wasn't that a little brash?
The correspondence was stiff and formal and said little, certainly nothing about the town of Ouray and was totally absent any tidbits of historical nature.
Late October was a little slow.
There was little hibernation in the town often called the Switzerland of America.
So you could show off those incredible legs of yours and I could watch your cute little boom-boom as I followed you, gliding around the rink.
There's no doubt you'll be following me, if you're not plunked down on the ice on your own cute little boom-boom.
The little girl, hair streaming, offered encouragement while skating backwards, one leg lifted high and beckoning unsuccessfully for Dean to follow.
This Annie woman was their grandpa's little sister.
I've got to bone up on the Reverend Martin and his little woman.
It was a trying conversation—obvious this bundle of nerves had little experience talking to strangers.
And there are 'teddy' guys, you know, guys who drool over those short little outfits that leave nothing to the imagination.
It was probably silly of me to believe Jerome could find me, just from one little charge card transaction.
They said little as they skied, content to enjoy their surroundings.
It's time you gave someone else a chance, Cynthia said with a winning smile that offered him little room to maneuver.
Dean's suggestion of placing the little fellow out of doors in the trash was overruled by his more compassionate wife who pointed out the resulting reduced chances of January survival.
Wasn't it difficult to write, knowing so little about what really happened?
I just had dinner and the service was a little slow.
Little time was spent on the snow.
If the old man was going to sulk, Dean thought, might as well get it out in the open and allow him to vent a little steam.
I'm getting to know my guy a little more each day.
The boots were a little tight and his legs weren't exactly locked together, but the old exhilaration of gliding over the snow returned immediately.
I can't imagine trying to sleep with just a couple of little steel pegs hammered into the rock the only thing holding me from a couple of thousand foot drop!
With Bird Song being full, much as I'd like to get to know Miss Annie a little better, she'll have to wait in line.
Dean bit his lip, assuming the little woman was about to complain about Gladys Turnbull's late night writing, but she had other concerns.
Dean considered calling the City of Ouray Police but realized they too could be of little help unless Shipton did something against the law.
If you have a problem, just wait a little while and ask Annie yourself.
