Feeling as if she'd said too much, she turned and fled the cottage for her car and locked the doors.

Let me know when you need anything, she said.
Remember what Dusty said.
I'm not, uh, restricted to either realm, Darian said.
I'll be fine, he said in amusement.
I touched her so she could show me where you were, and I felt what she can do, Darian said.
Dusty's not allowed out of his room without her—" "Darian!" she said with a laugh.
He refused to do as we said and kill his target.
No, Darian, Damian said, perplexed.
Let's try this, he said.
I did this, Jonny said.
Let's see if you can make it through the month, he said and dropped the cell.

The Watcher said nothing.
Sofi said the Originals aren't what we've been led to believe them to be.
The Vamp is here, and yet the only tear between realms was caused by Darian and is being pursued by the Watchers and Others, Damian said.
Darian said a Watcher ordered you to kill your mate?
Powerful motivation, Xander said, amused.
This seems motivation enough, Jule said.
I want the Other, the vamp said at last.
You made the one who can stop you fall in love with you instead, her father said.
Let me face them, she said.
You said we needed everything we could get, she replied.
Tell Dusty not to blow everything up, and leave the vamp alone, Damian said.
The vamp said nothing.

I just came back from a battery of tests that said nothing's wrong with me.
I ran into someone I knew from college, Jake said and began to pace again, half-lost in his thoughts as he spoke.

They're coaching him, the Watcher said softly.
I don't wanna know, Laney said.

I'm getting reports from the recruitment team that a lot of their newly flagged Guardians are getting whacked as soon as they make the list, Damian said.
He gave her a look that said he didn't have all the patience in the world then pulled her arm free again.
I owe you one, Jule said, chagrined.
He'd never said why, and Damian didn't ask.
They're having issues, Han said.
That's what Han said.
Han said you're moody.
And I'm willing if you're willing, he said with a smile that set her blood alight.
Or, I can cancel, and we can live out the—" "No, thanks," she said, standing and all but bolting out of his suite.
We know what he's planning, he said calmly.
Go see him, Han said, concerned yet unyielding.
No warrior wants to die of old age, he said.
He said he was going to drain all my blood out.
She said nothing, her heart somersaulting.
Let me ask you something, Han, she said, facing him.
I do apologize, the Watcher said.
Maybe I do, he said into her mind.
You just haven't realized it, he said.
I know you want me, Claire said.
I shouldn't have said that.
I can't even eat real food, she said bitterly.
Claire, Darian said again.
Damian said with warmth she hadn't seen him display toward anyone else.
Visitors held out their hands like this, Dusty said, indicating his outstretched hand.
She's trying, Damian said.
He didn't know what she said, but she was holding out a hand to him, crying.
Even he does not wear it, Pierre said and motioned her to follow him towards the party below.
The words were too painful, and by the predatory stillness of the man across from her, she was terrified of what he'd do if she said it again.
She'll be okay, Dusty said.
Jule had always said he inspired men to follow him, though he saw nothing different in what he did than what his deputies did.
You said it was.
She said nothing, realizing she'd told him something he didn't know.
Sit your ass down, Linda said, planting her small form between them and physically pushing the man who towered over her.
He'll be inconsolable, Linda said with a delighted laugh.
He's an inch away from wringing my neck, Sofia said, following.
I'm a lost sheep, Sofia said.
Someone brought you in, Linda said wisely.
So, if Lon said something stupid to you, you could toss him into the air and leave him there until he agreed to treat you with an ounce of respect.
I'll be right back, she said, hopping up.
Oh, ye of little faith, he said into her mind.
The warmth of his smile was not lost on her, and she thought about what Linda had said about him.
Traci told him not to think about asking her to marry him just because she's pregnant, and he said she had no choice and he'd drag the priest to her.
Do I have D's number? a warm, male voice on the other end said.
It's rough, he said and gave a surprised laugh.
We're in a unique position to help people who can't help themselves against bad guys who want to hurt them, he said.
He said nothing, and she saw the look that crossed his face, as if he wasn't sure what to make of it.
You're full of shit, he said into her thoughts.
Worse—he saw in her mind that what she said was true.
I don't mean that in a mean way, Linda said quickly.
You're there for me when I need you, she said.
Dusty said nothing but drew abreast of him.
Every year you bitch about it, he said, enjoying the distraction from his dark thoughts.
I'm French, he said and swallowed one whole.
We can make our way back there, Traci said.
He'd not said anything to her since the other night, when he'd almost destroyed the world.
He's got a great sense of style, Linda said with a laugh.
We'll wait, Jule said.
He said no more, and she lost the nerve to pursue.
Shouldn't have said that.
Jule said with a laugh.
I'll wait for Pierre to catch up, she said, joining Traci on the couch.
I'm calling Rainy, Ving said.
He had a secret weapon, but I don't know what it was, she said quickly.
The world needs him, she said.
You said you'd free him, she said.
His eyes were closed as he said the word.
Pierre said then cursed in French.
We'll run, Dustin said.
I'll protect you, kiri, Darian said into her mind.
I'm scared, kiri, he said again into her head.
He'll break if you push him, the Watcher said.
Jule had never said what he'd done to piss someone off and get exiled to earth, but it must have been bad if the Watcher's kind clipped his powers and sent him packing.
You are coming with us, mademoiselle, he said to Traci.
He said nothing, didn't move.
She'd said her piece.
I never thought she'd do something like that, he said quietly.
I don't know how she reached him inside that dark maze, Damian said with a shake of his head.
It said then concentrated on holding onto the book.
I will record you now, Zamon said.
You should not make deals, until you learn how, Zamon said sternly.
Anything you ask of Hell, it will do, he said.
He'd said she had a chance not only to leave, but also to help save Gabriel's life, if she did exactly as Darkyn said.
You almost waited too long to seek me out for a deal, he said.
Mesmerized by the sensations, her confusion and his direct gaze, she had to concentrate hard to register what he said.
I prefer the alternative of them being non-existent, he said.
Survive. He said I'd survive.
Even Gabriel has, Darkyn said.
It might have felt like a dream, but I can assure you it was not, he said, smiling.
You know Past-Death will stop at nothing to get what she wants, Darkyn said.
That's an emotion I do understand, she said.
They were the same she'd said to Gabriel on the beach, the night they met.
Someone lost a bet, he said.
The way he said it made it clear he was making fun of her.
You said something similar two days ago, before I became the mate of the Dark One.
He stripped her deity powers, said she had to earn Gabriel the same way you did.
He was making certain I win, she said.
She said she made me, used me and was done with me.
He said he had a message, and that I'm the message, she said.
He kept pushing me away, she said.
Don't let anyone else determine them, he said.
He also said I need to be careful in the human world.
Deals made while the negotiator is distracted or emotional are easier to win, he said.
I don't expect them or anyone else to make deals with you for me, she said, hurt as much by his words as the thought that there was no one outside of Hell who wished her well.
I feel it, he said.
I think, she said, puzzled.
You can fight me later, he said and released her.
That's it, Gabriel said.
You weren't about to take a chance that you lose her, Gabriel said, sounding baffled.
He didn't hurt me, she said, looking at Darkyn with renewed fear.
It's not a competition, he said simply.
Deidre did as he said and fed long, prepared to put up an honest fight this time.
Darkyn said nothing about leaving Hell after they returned from her apartment.
I know better than to trust Wynn, she said with a sigh.
Be proud of that, he said.
It's not guaranteed, but it's a shot, she said.
She's malnourished and dehydrated, Wynn said.
Darkyn said Hell would do what she asked, so she willed her hair shorter and blonde.
Wynn said your happiness made it grow.
Darkyn said my weakness is being taken advantage of by others.
I have to be there in order to prevent it, he said carefully.
I'll figure it out way before our deal is up, she said, rolling her eyes.
She shouldn't either, she said quietly.
No need to be jealous, Gabriel said, bristling.
No part of her wanted to reveal what Gabriel told her or that she meant it when she said she would find a way to help him.
I said a creature who has never known peace will surrender unconditionally when he tastes it for the first time.
Deidre said without thinking.
Deidre said, sensing the jealousy in the woman before her.
When he said no more, she smiled slightly.
As soon as I touched you, I knew, he said.
I didn't betray Gabriel to be stuck in the human world, Harmony said.
You never said it was this far.
Martha said nothing but tears streaked her cheeks.
There, it's been said.
Like David said, we love you.
The young girl bowed her head but said nothing.
He said nothing of his visit to Martha's room and busied himself on the stoop taping a "Dean for Sheriff" poster to a wooden stake before adding it to a growing pile.
I thought last night you said we were going to be honest.
She was surprised Martha had taken to heart what her husband said the prior evening.
I thought I was being smart, she said.
He introduced us, Pumpkin said.
Cynthia said as she snuggled on her pantyhose.
Martha showed little interest and had said hardly a word.
Cynthia said with alarm.
Tell us everything, Dean said.
When they still said nothing, she turned away.
His new pa would whip him good, he said.
That takes guts," Dean said, then added with a smile, "So goodie little Cynthia used to get her bum-bum paddled, huh?"
Finally she said, My father was the one who did it, but it was a joint decision.
Then my mother said something I'll never forget.
We said we were driving to Telluride for the day.
Cynthia said, with anger in her voice.
I believe what she said and I promised her I'd follow up on it and that's what I'm doing.
Like you said, I'll probably be bumped from serving on the jury anyway.
Some said he was talking about a job down in the Norfolk shipyard where there was work with the war coming on and all, but after a time, when Ma didn't hear, we just sort of forgot about him.
It was the most Fred O'Connor had ever said about his past, but the conversation was over.
Dean said with a salute as Fred rose and drained his glass.
He said it but he couldn't force the appropriate accompanying tone to sound enthusiastic.
I'm sure you miss him, Dean said, fishing for a reaction.
Fred said Fitzgerald lived here in Ouray and his father was a miner.
Pumpkin said, as he strolled up the walk.
You'll survive, Brandon said as he took over Mrs. Lincoln's chair.
It just said 'Nails.'
Yes. She sounded a bit sad—resigned, I guess, but she said everything was fine.
I tried to get a number to call her back but she said no incoming calls were allowed.
She said her mother or someone took her calling card but she didn't explain.
She said she'd try and call when she got the chance.
You said yourself I need it.
Here was this guy—yes, an old married guy— who listened when I said something.
I don't know how it came up—maybe he asked where I was born—but when I told him, he said how he knew Ouray and loved it out here.
You said you were born here.
As soon as Dean said it, he knew he'd made a mistake.
We gotta hurry! he said.
In spite of all I said, his and Jen's baby has a lot better future than Billy Langstrom's.
Cynthia asked "They were old cigarettes—not like Patsy smokes," she said and then added quickly, "gotta go."
Martha called them 'old cigarettes,' Cynthia said.
I think she said 'old' for some other reason.
She reached over, extending her hand to Cynthia, a wide smile on her face and a little kid look that said she was absolutely thrilled at the prospect of the upcoming trip.
I love it! she said, over and over again.
Jennifer said as she bent on hands and knees to look closer.
No one answered until Dean finally said, "The bus service stinks."
He said it too quickly.
He looked scared to death, Cynthia said, taking her husband's arm.
Jennifer said nothing more for the remainder of the trip down the mountain until the Jeep finally rolled onto pavement and they entered the still busy town.
He said it out loud, but there was no one close enough to hear.
She said it with a snarl, and then dropped her eyes.
The old man said nothing but shook his hand.
He was shaking his head no when she said, There's one just like it in the kitchen.
Because when I got the call that said a car had gone over, I couldn't raise him.
Court starts at nine o'clock, Dean said as he piled silverware on the kitchen counter.
I don't even like to say it because I don't have an ounce of evidence, but at the debate Fitzgerald said liquor had been found in Billy's vehicle.
Cynthia said, "Fitzgerald didn't even know he was going to run for sheriff until he became irritated at David."
Fred said he was too mind-stuffed with all these goings-on to eat a bite of supper, but when Cynthia supplied cold chicken and potato salad, he ate two helpings, just out of politeness.
Cynthia said, looking from one to the other.
Fred said, holding them up.
Westlake practically camps on it and even Pumpkin Green's has gotten in on the act, Dean said.
Then she said thank you and hung up.
Roger said he'd heard it was some investor from out west.
That's been a dry hole for sixty years, Roger said.
They said he ran over the pass to Telluride—before it was sport to do so.
That's before the ski area kicked up all the prices, Harold said, and then added.
You said opinions are free.
I recall him talking about maple sugaring on a farm when he was a kid, Charlie said.
They were only here four or five years in the late fifties, Charlie said.
All the guests are staying put, with no check-ins or check-outs, Cynthia said as she and her husband sat down to lunch.
He said something cute like one bottle for before and one for after.
She set her jaw and said nothing for several minutes.
Cynthia said, simplicity being one of her many virtues.
We were just wondering if maybe she said where she was going.
You said she knows Patsy from being a guard at Cañon City.
Finally he said, "I told him to buy a couple of bottles of vodka and drink them himself."
Nothing. I said I answered the 911 call and you came along— down the mountain, not up from town like me—and we went down to the crash together.
Dean said, a smile on his face.
As he drove back to town, he continued to mull over what Under Sheriff Larkin had said about Fitzgerald.
She said she was near the big one-sided McDonald's—she meant the arch.
Like I said, keep your fingers crossed—both hands.
She said it sharply.
There wasn't any liquor at the accident site when I left and you said a bottle had been found.
Besides, no one will remember what was said at the debate.
They said it was okay to drive the vehicle.
There were definitely two people in the car but he said one was a man.
Your grandfather never said he found him.
As I said before, back to the drawing board.
She seemed to consider what he said and set the bottle aside.
