I ask myself that a few times a day.
I'm going to give you a piece of advice you gave me a few months ago.
Not that he wasn't armed; he wore a few sheaths strapped to his body.
Deidre withdrew a few feet down the balcony, struggling with the heat streaking through her blood and scattering her rationale.
I figured out a few of the symbols on your compass.
A notebook lay on the table next to a few scrolls, an ancient manuscript and another block of stone with carvings too faint for Gabe to read.
He turned a few of the crisp pages carefully.
Gabe waited a few minutes for the assassin being replaced to appear.
The death-dealer before him was newer, with less than a few decades in the service of Death.
Based on her medical records, the tumor didn't grow until she hit puberty and didn't interfere with her ability to function before a few years ago, Wynn started.
Indeed. Summoned me a few days ago.
Breaking through the surface, Gabriel gasped in a few breaths before swimming towards the shore with powerful strokes.
The half-demon paused a few feet away, and Gabe saw the emotion cross his eyes.
I found out a few days ago.
After rejecting then pining for him for a few days, she wasn't ready for him to be less confused than she was.
It was hard to ignore him when he was only a few feet away.
He was no longer the conflicted man she'd met on a beach a few days before.
I have to look at a few more angles before I can determine if the option we found is feasible.
Perhaps he feared getting close to her if she was going to die in a few months, seeing as how past-Deidre crushed his heart, too.
Deidre shivered and paused a few feet from the deity.
Toby's pattering stopped, and she looked up, startled to see a massive man a few feet away.
She went to the kitchen and made him a cup in silence, glancing at him a few times as he propped his head up with both his hands.
He dumped the rest in the garbage disposal and turned it on, returning a few minutes later with the other bottles.
Gabriel said nothing but pinned him with a glare that had killed a few men outright.
The wind was harsher, colder than it was just a few minutes ago.
She was surprised she could walk at all and knew a few ounces of blood had been a small price to pay for Lankha's work, which she'd never have gotten for all the money in the world at home.
Sis, I have no money, no passport, no identification, and I haven't eaten in a few days.
The sound of waves rushing the shore and the firm sand beneath his feet indicated its location a few yards from them.
I've known him a few days.
I was introduced to this world a few days before that.
She hadn't been able to keep a job or a boyfriend for more than a few months, let alone an eternity!
One stupid little human is so much easier to kill than a few billion, and you chose duty instead.
Even so, she'd seen what he could do to a human-esque body in a few seconds.
Only to find herself staring at the bubbles of blood forming from within his fist, which was clamped around the blade of a knife a few inches from her face.
They crossed through a common area with a kitchenette and large, flat-screen TV, past a gym, a library, and a few other common rooms, and into the barracks area, which bustled with activity.
She selected a few items, enough to get her through a few days in the new world.
Most were either boots of various kinds or running shoes, but there were a few more stylish pairs.
Next Megan took her to what looked like a large drug store, where she plucked a few items from a shelf filled with top of the line skincare products.
Katie's eyes widened in surprise as she recognized a brand of moisturizer that cost a few hundred dollars.
Determined to enjoy her first relaxing experience in a few weeks, she watched to make sure the door closed behind him and went to the locker room.
Kris, can you spare a few warriors?
She wondered if she'd freak everyone out with a few Hello Kitty posters to take away the severity of the rooms.
He carried on a conversation for a few minutes, and she rested her head back, staring at the ceiling.
You're interested in coming to see me for a few days?
His eyes flashed silver, his rugged features covered in a few days' growth.
Hannah paused a few doors down along the wide, tall corridor with plush red rugs and gilded cornices.
Rhyn leapt down from the tree a few meters in front of her and sat to await her as she slid and maneuvered the muddy trail.
She.d rarely seen him—and never touched him—since arriving a few weeks ago.
The lush Scottish Highlands around him were covered in a blanket of snow that stretched for miles, the white world interrupted only by a few narrow roads snaking in different directions.
I can probably get close with a few years of research, but not in two months.
If you want to wait for a few minutes, I can pull up their itinerary.
She lowered it to her side and took a few deep breaths.
The Immortals. leader cursed and paced for a few minutes after Rhyn left before disappearing into the hallway.
He listed a few items, none of which she heard as she continued to stare at the paper.
Gabriel.s small cottage was lit by a single candle that cast light on a collection of weapons along one wall and a few books on a bookshelf on another.
Iliana was a relatively young Immortal who had been at his side for only a few decades, having caught his attention with her fighting skill and fierce loyalty.
This might take me a few days.
This had been Sasha.s study less than a few days ago.
I think we need to get a few things straight before we go.
Kris and a few of his Immortals were surrounded in the middle of the park while demons darted from the forest to attack pockets of Immortals.
It screeched across the floor a few inches.
It was revealed to me by someone you trust when I was at the Sanctuary a few weeks ago.
We lost quite a few of our friends, she said with a frown.
Defeated the demons, except for a few hiding out here.
Let me grab a few more things.
With a sinking heart, he realized he.d lost the Jade who.d been his friend and lover for a few hundred years.
Jade was lost in his thoughts for a few minutes, staring without seeing.
We hadn.t seen her in a few days.
She might have to wait a few weeks just to visit.
That they were going to some other planet millions of light years from earth because Romas knew a few good men they'd like to hook her up with?
She blinked a few times as tears lined her eyes.
She didn't want to stay even a few days, not if it meant she was viewed as nothing more than a short-and-fat foreigner!
The moment dragged out for quite a few minutes, and still no one gave chase.
Or you can teach me a few things.
She stopped a few feet from the entrance, debating whether she should just leave, until she heard A'Ran's name.
It'll take me a few days to position myself to take advantage of it.
Jetr crossed to the door and closed it before asking, "Have you given any thought to what I warned you of a few weeks ago?"
He touched a few buttons to take it off training mode.
She turned a few more pages, until he rested a hand on hers to keep her from turning.
She took a few steps back and then whirled to run.
She took a few steps back and flinched at the first silent contact of his sword with another's.
She rose after a few minutes and stretched.
He spent a few hours setting up the explosive mechanisms and issuing new battle plans for the space war and ordered his ground troops to evacuate the planet.
To date, nothing Evelyn had done was for anyone else's benefit but Evelyn's, a realization she'd come to when she'd stopped crying a few days ago.
Only a few people looked long enough to take in her armband, and she shied away from one who stared at her in alarm.
Jetr listened and spoke, glancing over after a few minutes.
She recognized Romas and his father, two other Council members with Jetr, and a few more strangers.
Evelyn returned for me a few days ago.
It's nice to have the place nearly to ourselves, even if it is only for a few days, Dean said, as he stifled a yawn.
I got some ideas and I have a few feelers out, Fred answered, a defensive tone in his voice.
Bird Song's going to be close to empty for a few more days until the ice climbers arrive.
None was longer than a page and each asked after Annie's health and wellbeing and then added a few lines that mentioned that all was well in Boston.
The Deans dallied over the dishes and then took a slow stroll around town, stopping at the Western Hotel a few blocks away.
Dean thought of a few more snappy comebacks but kept the rest of his thoughts to himself in front of Donnie.
Dean reached up on the sofa and pulled down a few articles of the clothing.
Edith looked up at the ceiling once more but in a few moments there was only silence.
