    1
    1

    1
    1
  • Once back in Surry, I wasted no time in telephoning the number Brennan had given me to reach him.
    1
    1
  • Perhaps I should secure some company for my lonely hours, once I travel.
    1
    1
  • I'm sure Brennen was confused by my sharp response and background noise but once girls and dog had left we settled down to business.
    1
    1
  • Once I entered the woods I had only dead reckoning to come out near my quarry.
    1
    1
  • I'll dispense with her immediately and find a roadside grave once I leave the area.
    1
    1
  • Betsy was very apologetic, in the nicest way, once we were snuggled in the privacy of our bed.

    1
    1
  • Once aboard my flight I spent the next several hours squeezed between a talkative sailor and a woman with a fussy child.

    1
  • It's difficult attaining this state but it is unbelievably clear once accomplished.
    1
    1
  • They have the equipment; once it's in your hands, you'll have the ability.
    1
    1
  • Once again, I'll exercise caution and not lead anyone to my secret place.
    1
    1
  • He looked at once panicked and guilty.
    1
    1
  • In all of thirty minutes, some sort of drama would emerge once the inhabitants awoke.
    1
    1
  • She squeezed her eyes closed, unable to move once again.
    1
    1
  • Relief and fear unleashed within her, and she was hauled once again to her feet.
    1
    1
  • I've almost killed you once today.
    1
    1
  • He knocked once before entering.
    1
    1
  • Her large eyes were fearful once again.
    1
    1
  • He looked around, at once irritated.
    1
    1
  • I'm so sorry, but with my gift, I felt you had some sort of pain, maybe you lost someone once, long ago?
    1
    1
  • He closed his eyes to Travel out of the condo, aware he'd snapped at her once again.
    1
    1
  • Toni was asleep at the computer. … Maybe you lost someone once.
    1
    1
  • The skies opened once again as he reached the house, and thunder boomed in the distance.
    1
    1
  • I can make more than one kind at once.
    1
    1
  • Once Dusty died, someone had to take care of the girls.
    1
    1
  • He took her face in his hands and drew her to him, kissing her once again.
    1
    1
  • She touched her once before Talon wrenched her up.
    1
    1
  • At once, the tension eased from his frame, and his eyes went glassy.
    1
    1
  • He'd spent so long hoping Darian became what he once was.
    1
    1
  • Darian lowered the phone, losing hope once again, when it vibrated.
    1
    1
  • "I saved everyone?" he asked, hopeful once more.
    1
    1
  • Several times she'd thought Dusty had the upper hand and could've killed the leering vamp, and several times, he'd stopped, once with a glance at his watch.
    1
    1
  • Jule understood the importance of her appearance, just as he knew all bets were off once she was revealed.
    1
    1
  • But once they start attacking …" "We fight, like always.
    1
    1
  • She'd been in the large storage room once while playing hide and seek long ago.
    1
    1
  • Torn, she closed the door on him once again.
    1
    1
  • "If her death is so important, and I've already failed once to take her life, you'd call in someone else to do this job," Jule reasoned.
    1
    1
  • He'd met Jenn once and didn't know her well enough to know where she'd be.
    1
    1
  • At once, he felt the brush of her soft curls against the underside of his chin and smelled her amber-vanilla.
    1
    1
  • For once, Yully was grateful for the almost allergic reaction humans had to her.
    1
    1
  • "If they could find me, they would've by now, just like you'll never be able to retrace her steps back to this spot once you leave," her father said, his voice rising.
    1
    1
  • Even the crossbow she'd used the other night was clean and perched where she'd found it, loaded once again.
    1
    1
  • "I saw what he was hiding," Jonny started, features troubled once again.
    1
    1
  • Jenn left without saying anything, once again unable to get a read on the kid.
    1
    1
  • Darian held out his as well, and Jule took both their hands, at once bombarded with Bianca's cool energy and Darian's hot energy.
    1
    1
  • I told you once, sweetheart.
    1
    1
  • The girl visited the town nearly every weekend, and her father accompanied her once every few weeks.
    1
    1
  • Only the reflection of the white snow and grey sky provided light once she stepped outside.
    1
    1
  • I tried to defy them once.
    1
    1
  • For once, he wished he remembered his time before the Schism.
    1
    1
  • He continued past her, up the hill once more.
    1
    1
  • His knife blade grazed her once and turned into a feather that he flung away.
    1
    1
  • Yully opened herself to him, and he shivered as their souls, then their bodies, met once again.
    1
    1
  • She lacked Jake's golden tongue, and her bluntness had gotten her in trouble more than once.
    1
    1
  • She pulled it free, once again compelled to stare at the name written there.
    1
    1
  • Once, she heard him call for help.
    1
    1
  • Damian felt the unusual urge to look in on her again, to feel her soft skin against him once more and make sure she was safe.
    1
    1
  • He'd expected her original reaction to him to be born of shock, but she wrapped her arms around him once again.
    1
    1
  • She pulled her knees to her chest, feeling small and vulnerable once more.
    1
    1
  • You'll be able to go outside once you transform.
    1
    1
  • "I guess you could say I'm a divine spirit of sorts," he said, guarded once more.
    1
    1
  • She lapped once with the tip of her tongue, tasting both the metallic, spicy blood and her tears.
    1
    1
  • She sucked in a sharp breath, at once confused and thrilled.
    1
    1
  • She'd been there twice before today and only knocked once for fear he'd answer.
    1
    1
  • She rubbed her temples and issued a challenging glare to the contents of the pantry, furious once more she could eat none of the wonderful things it held.
    1
    1
  • He sliced his forearm and tucked the knife beneath his pillow once more, closing his eyes.
    1
    1
  • Sofia rubbed her temples but didn't move, grateful he wasn't hurting her head for once.
    1
    1
  • She shook out the sexual energy running through her and turned on a light, not wanting to be alone in the dark while the dead man in her thoughts began to sob once more.
    1
    1
  • So once more, Sofia had tried to eat.
    1
    1
  • Darian wasn't crying for once, and his voice almost too hushed to make out.
    1
    1
  • Nope, though I've only let her past the barrier once.
    1
    1
  • It wrenched open, and a man in a black trench coat Damian's size looked her over once.
    1
    1
  • Sofia watched her take a bite of a muffin, at once longing and agitated.
    1
    1
  • His gaze was wary and moving, and he was guarded once more.
    1
    1
  • In a few minutes, they were strolling through the mall once more.
    1
    1
  • Jule bristled suddenly, the smile disappearing as his face turned predatory once again.
    1
    1
  • He took Damian outside to the rock where he and kiri had watched the stars once long ago and set him down.
    1
    1
  • Two walked on once he reached the desert, and she trotted after him, looking back at the floodlit entrance to the elevator.
    1
    1
  • He touched his brother's face, his emotions soaring once again.
    1
    1
  • At once, the home videos and nightmares faded.
    1
    1
  • In the words of an Oracle I once knew, get used to it.
    1
    1
  • Zamon nodded once, attention on the book.
    1
    1
  • His nose bore the appearance of having been broken and set incorrectly more than once.
    1
    1
  • Instinctively, she flattened her palm against his chest once more to feel his heartbeat.
    1
    1
  • The pain faded once more, and the experience became too dreamlike to be real.
    1
    1
  • Deidre closed the door, near tears once more.
    1
    1
  • He was amused at whatever game he played as he closed the distance between them once more.
    1
    1
  • He reached for her once more, and she slapped his hand away.
    1
    1
  • He nudged her head once more.
    1
    1
  • "Just once?" she ventured.
    1
    1
  • "I said once, didn't I?" she murmured.
    1
    1
  • You only have to agree once.
    1
    1
  • He sounded pleased once more.
    1
    1
  • "For once, I agree with Darkyn," Gabriel said.
    1
    1
  • Gabriel asked, looking at her once more.
    1
    1
  • He sat, his warmth surrounding her once more.
    1
    1
  • He leaned forward to kiss her once more, his fangs fully extended.
    1
    1
  • He hesitated once more but took it.
    1
    1
  • Selyn's squawked once more and pointed.
    1
    1
  • He crossed his arms, wary once more.
    1
    1
  • She willed her hair shorter and blonde once again, knowing he'd already read her mind and seen the reason why she changed her hair.
    1
    1
  • The pain melted into hot pleasure once again, and she closed her eyes as he fed long and hard.
    1
    1
  • Deidre shook her head, once again feeling too far away from the reality these creatures lived in.
    1
    1
  • Her hope had been crushed in every other way – except that it stirred once more at the idea there was more to him than she knew.
    1
    1
  • The action that once terrified her now made desire bloom in anticipation of what he'd do.
    1
    1
  • Deidre felt tears on her cheeks once more.
    1
    1
  • Selyn nodded once more.
    1
    1
  • Once we're there, we'll have all the leverage we need.
    1
    1
  • Once clear of town, Dean drove along at a brisk clip, trying without success to engage Martha in conversation.
    1
    1
  • But once again, Fred wasn't biting.
    1
    1
  • "Let's be smart for once and mind our own business," Cynthia said as she stepped into the Jeep.
    1
    1
  • The three were once again rocking away on the front porch.
    1
    1
  • He'd traveled that road before, more than once.
    1
    1
  • Westlake was once again off photographing; the Dawkins, in independent pairs, Jeeping somewhere in the mountains, probably spying on one another.
    1
    1
  • While Cynthia was apprehensive over the wildness of the area, once there, the stark beauty that engulfed her dispelled her earlier trepidation.
    1
    1
  • The passageway continued beyond where Martha had ventured and the Deans continued another hundred yards but once more the passageway forked.
    1
    1
  • More than enough, but once we reach the main Jeep road we're sure to see someone.
    1
    1
  • Westlake twisted around the seat once more and after a struggle pulled out an old step pump.
    1
    1
  • Cynthia looked to her husband for agreement but before he could second her suggestion, Westlake once again jammed the old vehicle in gear.
    1
    1
  • Dean resolved to try once more in the morning to get word to her.
    1
    1
  • Once you've got the bug, you'd no more pass up a good bargain than a cold beer on a hot day.
    1
    1
  • Everybody likes to see a politician knocked on his butt once in a while!
    1
    1
  • He'd only been here once, years before, but he told me he owned land and one day he'd settle in the town.
    1
    1
  • Once again they lapsed into silence, but again Jennifer Radisson made no move to leave.
    1
    1
  • He knew at once the object of her concern.
    1
    1
  • Once is more than enough.
    1
    1
  • Once Dean turned from the highway; however, he had the road to himself.
    1
    1
  • The road remained in the trees and it seemed like hours before he was once again in the open and able to see the valley before him.
    1
    1
  • She looked once more at Dean, turned, and began hobbling down the road to her car.
    1
    1
  • Once Dean was standing at the podium and he'd controlled the shake in his knees and hidden the sweat on his palms, he felt he didn't do badly.
    1
    1
  • There was a chill, but once Dean began warming his muscles he felt comfortable in this familiar posture.
    1
    1
  • While the Deans discussed contacting the state once more, both agreed another phone call would be as fruitless as earlier ones.
    1
    1
  • While Cynthia didn't explain her decision to fit God and church into their busy Sunday morning schedule, once again she dressed for church and Dean dutifully followed suit.
    1
    1
  • Once past the open vista, the road deteriorated, dropping into the forest on federal land.
    1
    1
  • We were the best of buddies, once she got hold of the photo.
    1
    1
  • It demands a Colorado once in a while.
    1
    1
  • Once more she laughed.
    1
    1
  • Not much beyond that, because, as she put it, she and Caleb didn't stick around 'cause the light went out almost at once.
    1
    1
  • Relief washed over him once he knew they were safe.
    1
    1
  • So you tried to buy The Lucky Pup so you could cover up the whole business once and for all.
    1
    1
  • "Look, once again I owe you big time," she said.
    1
    1
  • She didn't need to know he planned on having her killed off, once and for all, once they were free of Hell.
    1
    1
  • She recalled people, places, and some routines, like those that human-Deidre did at least once a day: getting dressed, the bathroom, showering.
    1
    1
  • She recognized the female death-dealer at once.
    1
    1
  • She shook off the strange feeling and followed once more.
    1
    1
  • She once thought the problem was him, because he was of human origin.
    1
    1
  • He was able to sense her presence once more without knowing she'd been gone from his reach for an entire night.
    1
    1
  • Gabriel asked, focusing once again on his surroundings.
    1
    1
  • No matter how many Deidres were shoved into that perfect little body, she'd never have the control over him she once had.
    1
    1
  • What did you do, Gabriel? she demanded at last, the fire flaring in her eyes once more.
    1
    1
  • Deidre's face flamed red once more.
    1
    1
  • Gabriel rose, furious once more, and began to pace.
    1
    1
  • They never once suffered because of what choices she made.
    1
    1
  • Would he really accept her once she told him she sacrificed an innocent human to the Dark One?
    1
    1
  • Maybe Gabe was right; maybe this was partially her fault for breaking too many Immortal Laws at once.
    1
    1
  • She moved once more to the edge of the lake and stared at the souls.
    1
    1
  • For once, I think Kiki is right.
    1
    1
  • Every once in a while, the half-demon surprised him with the depth of his observations and compassion.
    1
    1
  • Building their relationship would mean easing into intimacy once more.
    1
    1
  • What if he fell for this Deidre and she changed once again?
    1
    1
  • If Gabriel didn't fall in love with Deidre in three days, he would be betrayed once more.
    1
    1
  • Once more, Gabriel was right.
    1
    1
  • Any pain she caused was going to be short lived and quickly fixed, when she revealed herself to Gabriel once more and told him they could be together.
    1
    1
  • And she did, clearly enough that she felt the pain of her heart aching once more.
    1
    1
  • "For once, I agree with Darkyn," Gabriel said, staring at the Dark One with no small amount of surprise.
    1
    1
  • He stripped off his shirt and flung it then tossed all his weapons in a pile at his feet before seating himself once more.
    1
    1
  • Gabriel resisted the urge to wrap his arm around her the way he had once before.
    1
    1
  • The Dark One had let it go once as part of a deal.
    1
    1
  • The news of their deal had infuriated Gabriel once more and driven him off, leading Deidre to believe that he had loved the human more than her.
    1
    1
  • The Dark One's mate appeared uncertain once more.
    1
    1
  • She shook her head, once again amazed at how awful pain was.
    1
    1
  • He'd been in the middle of deciding which of his collection of knives he was going to use to kill the goddess once and for all when the noise started.
    1
    1
  • He'd felt the earth crack open once before.
    1
    1
  • Something was broken and for once, it wasn't Death's domain.
    1
    1
  • He saw it once before, when he was seventeen.
    1
    1
  • She once had said she wanted five children.
    1
    1
  • Carmen once said she wasn't like Tess.
    1
    1
  • Once Josh had considered substituting her birth control pills with candy.
    1
    1
  • She accepted his warm hand and welcomed the way it slipped around her waist once she stood.
    1
    1
  • Alex could remember every one, even if he only met them once, but she had trouble remembering the names and faces of people she saw monthly.
    1
    1
  • We have the entire afternoon alone for once.
    1
    1
  • Alex had loved once before, long time ago, and that girl had betrayed him.
    1
    1
  • So, once a person came out of the coma, could they go back into it?
    1
    1
  • It was pointless to buy a bikini and wear it only once, so Carmen bought a black push-up bra and some skimpy black briefs trimmed with black ribbon.
    1
    1
  • Once the kids were in bed, they retired to their bedroom.
    1
    1
  • Once again she allowed him to fill his needs, simply waiting for it to be over.
    1
    1
  • Once the carpet was laid, it would be ready for occupants.
    1
    1
  • For once his face was a kaleidoscope of emotion.
    1
    1
  • She'd been asked that question more than once while out and didn't understand it, unless it was some sort of odd Southern greeting.
    1
    1
  • He'd met Fate once.
    1
    1
  • Very much so, especially when you consider she stole your heart not once but twice.
    1
    1
  • His predecessor once told him that if he entered, he'd become like her in every way.
    1
    1
  • Shaking his head, he walked once around the room, trying to determine where she'd hide something he needed.
    1
    1
  • He'd loved her once, and he would've bet his soul she loved him.
    1
    1
  • "I made this awkward again, didn't I?" she said, embarrassed once more by the passion she put into her speech.
    1
    1
  • Once. There's a few other things I have I mind.
    1
    1
  • The eyes that once turned from black to white to every color in between were now blue-green in color, and her face held a human flush enhanced by his lovemaking.
    1
    1
  • He looked at her once more.
    1
    1
  • She turned and pulled her hair aside to show him the tattoo once again.
    1
    1
  • Once upon a time - " "The leader of the Council does not discuss these things!"
    1
    1
  • Deidre felt herself lifted once more.
    1
    1
  • He'd lost her once.
    1
    1
  • He answered at once.
    1
    1
  • A quick shower later, she joined him in the garden once more in a tank top and jeans.
    1
    1
  • Looking at him once more, she shook her head.
    1
    1
  • We don't put all our cards on the table at once, either.
    1
    1
  • She paused, afraid of where this doorway led, and steadied her breathing before stepping through, at once disoriented to appear in a small kindergarten class.
    1
    1
  • He was the kind of man who struck once - and it'd kill his target.
    1
    1
  • Gabriel was waiting with the patience of Death, though he'd started to tense, indicating his guard was going up once more.
    1
    1
  • Deidre sighed, her body going lax once more.
    1
    1
  • Deidre emerged into the living room and turned around once completely, not expecting the views of the city from the bank of windows along one wall.
    1
    1
  • Gabe mumbled, infuriated by past-Deidre once more.
    1
    1
  • The death-dealer appeared at once.
    1
    1
  • She folded her legs beneath her once more on the chair.
    1
    1
  • Deidre looked up at him as he entered her personal space, at once flustered and irritated.
    1
    1
  • I want to hear the woman who lives by the motto of no apologies, no regrets, who told me once that her own soul searching taught her to live, doesn't want my help turning that three months into eternity.
    1
    1
  • At once, the rhythm and scent of the ocean soothed her.
    1
    1
  • I've only read your mind once.
    1
    1
  • Landon appeared at once, and Gabriel waited for his new second-in-command to join him.
    1
    1
  • For once, things were going in Death's favor.
    1
    1
  • As if sensing her fear, Darkyn held out his hand once more.
    1
    1
  • You didn't bargain to leave here once you arrived.
    1
    1
  • The demons they passed bowed to Darkyn, their eyes riveted to her once the scary creature strode by.
    1
    1
  • She thought she heard something stir once, twice, before she was certain.
    1
