Papa, there was a man in our house who tried to kill me.

Now there was life and light in his eyes, even if he wasn't quite the man Jule remembered.

But there was another reason she dared not leave her father, one she feared voicing even to the man before her.

He wasn't sure what was going on, and he wasn't about to worry Rourk more by admitting there was a seven-foot vamp with unlimited power loose somewhere.

He hung up, but there was urgency in his voice.

Her chest was tight and her breath short, but she knew there was one way to find out what happened to Damian.

If there was a way to make him see what was in her head … to make him remember … she focused on Damian's memories, the ones before the dark age, when he and his brother were happy.

She didn't know if she'd hurt him enough to drive him away forever or if there was a sliver of him that still wanted her.

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.

Glancing down at herself, she decided there was only one logical place for her to start.

What if there was something I could do to help you?

She was in Hell, because there was nowhere else for her lost soul to go.

But there was a never a day when you didn't love her and she didn't love you.

Instead of war in his background, there was peacemaking and diplomacy from the beginning.

She'd spent five days with him, silently fighting him, only to realize there was nowhere else to go.

This time, there was nothing else standing between her and her destiny.

The soulless, ancient intelligence there was as fathomless as the night sky.

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.

Deidre wasn't certain if there was any affection for his daughter, though his persistence in healing her was a sign of either care or obligation.

I know there was more to why she sought me out but I don't understand what.

While there was a comment that father Joe Calvia hadn't taken the news well, no details were given, and no calls from a hospital emergency room followed.

At the mention of the name, there was a noticeable reaction from all members of the Dawkins' clan.

If there was a real skeleton, there was a real crime.

Dean looked back at Fred in the rear view mirror but there was no hint of clarification.

But if there was an old skeleton up there, I wonder whose it could be?

And if Martha's discovery had been substituted with the theater prop, he'd bet his boots there was an empty trunk out there somewhere!

I read all the weekly newspapers and there was no mention of any foul play, but this little ad caught my attention.

In September, there was another ad.

But there was a real skeleton.

While there was a feeling of last-guy-in-turn-off-the-elevator, the Deans reluctantly agreed that some form of management was necessary to maintain order in the face of the ever-increasing numbers who wallowed in nature's wonders.

They waited, and after a few seconds there was the distinct sound of movement above them.

He had just started toward his Jeep when there was a sound like a gunshot from above them.

The escape was less than stealthy, and it was impossible to tell if there was more than one pair of feet.

We assumed the skeleton would have been discovered if there was activity in there.

He said it out loud, but there was no one close enough to hear.

Dean crawled on his hands and knees, peering under the vehicle for Billy's young girlfriend but there was no one else, only a liquor bottle—unlike its victim, unbroken.

She looked up, somehow seeming small in spite of her height, but there was fire in her eyes.

He sat on a sofa while she settled into a leather rocker where she'd evidently been sitting, as there was a nearly empty pint of vodka on the table next to her.

Going too damned fast, but there was no one else there.

The remainder of the meeting rocked back and forth, but there was no doubt in Dean's mind that he'd been hurt badly—and unfairly—by Fitzgerald.

When she hung up, there was a questioning look on her face.

In addition to the four Dawkins, there was Pumpkin Green, the grocery cart vagabond, and old Brandon Westlake, camera buff supreme.

Both wished there was a simple means of communicating this information to the child.

If there was a tear in her eye, she covered it well.

He told Lydia about Fitzgerald buying the vodka on the morning of the Fourth of July, denying it, and saying at the debate that there was liquor in Billy's vehicle when he, Dean, felt there wasn't.

Following a host of we-should-have-known-better's, the Deans realized there was a silver lining in Pumpkin's hasty departure.

He brought Cynthia up to speed on his meeting with Lydia after confirming there was no further word on Martha's disappearance.

Aside from Larkin, there was only an elderly clerk who neither looked up nor spoke.

I did run the prints and there was no hit.

But there was the little problem of the pack of cigarettes Martha clearly described as being with the bones in the Lucky Pup Mine.

The Deans jumped at every ring of the phone for the balance of the afternoon, but there was no further word.

Dean wondered if there was another, more sinister reason for Paul Dawkins' silence on the subject—that he was the murderer of his wife's natural father.

By the time we became an item, my mother was dead and there was no reason in his mind to resurrect old ghosts.

When there was a lady around, Fred O'Connor was always in good hands.

This time there was no doubt that Lydia laughed but didn't answer.

There was attorney Faust but there was no proof he had even set foot in Bird Song.

He telephoned but there was no answer.

No. But there was a lot of blood.

While Dean's mind whirled with this latest news, there was nothing he could do but let it play out.

Besides, there was a good chance Billy would never see what Fitzgerald retrieved.

He told us there was gold in the mine.

Both men felt the old man had probably killed him, but Westlake's brief disclosure was insufficient to pursue the matter and as both men were dead, there was little incentive to do so.

She didn't understand how, when there was so much beauty around her.

He shut down her ability to use the portals, just in case there was something else going on.

Why did no one tell me there was so much pleasure?

What if there was?

You're certain there was one in her head the other night, right?

Andre's patient smile reminded him of how there was a time when he never would've considered asking for such a favor.

Or risk that there was something else going on that would drive his mate back to Darkyn for whatever reason.

The movements seemed to start there, circle around the lake then drop, as if there was an invisible wall.

Cora was loyal to Gabriel but wanted to go home, and right now, the only way there was through Darkyn.

Sometimes, he thought there was none of the human left at all, just an incarnated goddess whose fascination with her new world extended to him.

On a mission to ensure there was a clean slate between his mate and Darkyn, Gabriel waited in the middle of Deidre's old apartment for the Dark One to arrive.

Andre was the only one who seemed to think there was a reason for Gabriel to be here, and Gabriel trusted Andre more than both Deidres and Darkyn combined.

The faded signs of massive scarring were on one side of her neck while there was blood on the other, as if someone had just hurt her.

But there was never a day when you didn't love her and she didn't love you.

He couldn't afford to now but there was a part of him that hurt.

And then there was the baby she and Alex had lost before it reached full term.

Whether there was someone else in her life at this point or she was alone was a mystery.

But there was something else – something that might actually be at the core of Lori's resistance.

She had always imagined how it would be, but there was no way she could have imagined how wonderful it actually was.

Throughout the night she checked regularly to see if there was any change.

Tests revealed normal brain function, and there was no indication of any permanent damage.

And then there was the fact that it might frighten Jonathan.

The doctor said there was no reason for him to remain in a coma and he might wake up any day.

For a few seconds there was silence on the other end of the line.

Otherwise, there was no indication of understanding.

As long as he was improving, there was hope.

But there was no good way.

And then there was the embarrassing thought of having to call the doctor and explain how he got in that condition.

And then there was that other thing – their love life, or lack thereof.

Still, there was the change in their love life.

Then there was Katie.

Maybe there was something to what Katie was saying.

Short of fighting him off as she would an attacker, there was nothing she could do but submit.

The kitchen had been completely remodeled and there was a ceiling fan in every room.

For a few minutes there was an uncomfortable silence at the table.

Maybe things would have been different... but there was no point thinking about that.

Deidre turned to see if there was someone behind her the stranger spoke to.

For example, before you ran into her in the mortal world, there was a ninety seven percent chance you would've killed her the first time you met.

She told him a million times there was no way she was going to marry him then turn around and die.

Though her hair was pink, there was no mistaking the delicate facial features, porcelain skin and large eyes of the woman who tormented him his entire life then dumped the underworld on him.

This time, there was no mistaking the weapons lining his trench coat or the sword along one thigh.

Gabriel asked, sensing there was more to the demon lord's journey from Hell.

Just because she knew there was a shadow society didn't mean everyone she ran into was part of it!

Daniela knew me and there was a man on the beach when we landed.

Despite the bitter words, there was regret on Wynn's face.

His bed was made, and there was no body on the floor.

She thought she was going crazy already; if she really started to deteriorate, there was no way she'd be able to handle it.

She trusted him without question and yet, there was more to him than she really knew.

He appeared normal, unassuming, but there was something otherworldly in his eyes that warned her he wasn't normal.

She stopped a dozen meters before the edge of the forest, wondering if there was any sort of hazard in being so close to whatever it was causing the lake to be green in the first place.

Was this all there was after one died?

Whatever she faced there was a million times better than whatever she faced away from him.

No matter what he said, she'd heard enough about past-Deidre to understand there was much more to their relationship.

This time, there was no waiting.

The souls were barely glimmering; there was no way he'd be able to pull the amount of power he needed to save Deidre.

Aside from the greeting, there was no warmth between them at all.

She wasn't willing to consider it, not when there was the issue of her pending demise between here and there.

I mean, I thought there was … is there?

Disgusted, she was also relieved there was no pain.

Except that Fate said there was.

This response was more guarded, less amused, enough to tip off Deidre that there was more to the story.

Aside from the birth certificate, there was no way the rest were official police papers!

He resembled his father in height and narrow face, though there was warmth in his father's face she didn't see in his.

This was worse than ledge walking in the hotel; there was no balcony to catch her!

This time, there was no mistaking the tattoos on their bodies.

When there was silence, she felt the beast approach her, its bloodied fangs at the same level as her head.

Maybe there was a way out of it yet.

Maybe there was a part of him that didn't want to undo whatever he'd done.

This time, there was none.

Katie dug in, unconcerned with the woman's silence while there was food in front of her.

She expected someone to be angry that there was a man in the women's wing.

Five sets of predatory eyes fell to her, as if realizing there was a lame lamb in their midst.

Katie wondered if she'd shocked her that badly or if there was some other reason Molly was so surprised.

She.d spent the day in thought after her talk with Gabriel, and there was only one solution that might drive Rhyn away before she and Gabriel hurt him.

Hannah never traveled light, and there was no way of knowing what Kris was doing.

The Council meeting was a bust, and there was more tension in the air than he could understand.

He.d thought he crossed the only line that mattered by selling out the Immortals but found there was another he wasn.t ready for.

She didn.t know if there was a second gym where other Immortal mates were, but Kris had said Hannah would be down.

Now, there was something else to consider.

You say there was one in Ully.s lab?

Maybe there was a chance he could leave Hell and come back to Kris.

Though there was a wall of Immortals between her and the forest, she felt the demon watching her, waiting for its opening, now that she was no longer protected.

His people's hope had turned to desperation in the hands of the Yirkin when every sun-cycle passed and there was no nishani.

That there was a better chance of her selling art if she painted something no one else on earth could imagine?

A'Ran's behavior was just as distant, but there was something bordering on resentment in the way Ne'Rin looked at her that made her uncomfortable.

Her directness and pure courage-- there was no other word for her insubordinate address!-- amazed him.

Once again, there was too much behind his simple statement for her to address.

She wondered what life would be like with someone like him, or if he was so bound to duty, there was no room for real affection.

With there being no current battle, there was nothing to test her.

And she walked away without another word, confused as to why she had wanted him to say there was more to why he chose her than because it was his duty.

It was not possible that any man could take her or that there was any place she could go that he could not find her.

She'd thought the planet completely dead, but there was a bright patch of green grass beneath her and the pod.

If there was grass, there was bound to be water somewhere.

She rustled through the pod to see if there was any water or food.

The thick stone door behind her slid closed, and there was a pause before another door opened in front of her.

Yet there was no earth or place for them to grow around her.

Shaken, she leaned against the nearest wall and sank into a sit, disgusted to see there was blood on her clothing.

It grew straight from the stone; there was no dirt or planter.

We don't know what Bird Song was at the turn of the century, just that there was a building or some sort on this site.

Edith looked up at the ceiling once more but in a few moments there was only silence.

It's not even my jurisdiction, even if there was something I could do.

The note was undated and if there was a return address or an envelope, it was lost over the years.

Before Dean could let loose with a torrent of pithy comments, there was another knock on the door and Donnie entered the room.

However, as there was almost no break between words, they could never be sure the double characters were in the same words and not the beginning and ending of different words or sentences.

Perhaps there was an earlier Mrs. Martin who died?

Cynthia asked when Ryland mentioned there was no charge.

I looked through the whole month of January but there was nothing about a girl named Annie dying.

Dean agreed and telephoned Janet O'Brien from the hall but there was no answer.

Most guys were off fighting the war so there was lots of empty slots.

The new Beaumont hotel was all a glitter in preparation of an affair of some high social order and there was a general excitement everywhere.

Then there was only silence and the night sounds of the old building as Cynthia lay awake next to this man she loved.

Dean took a deep breath, half expecting Ryland to demand that Edith leave, but there was only silence.

The business didn't stop, although there was a lot of talk in the newspapers about closing down all the bars and clubs.

He called her again as soon as he rose, but she had apparently left earlier as there was no answer.

Fred followed but there was little time for conversation.

Before Dean could answer, there was an almost inaudible knock at the door.

For the second time in a few minutes, there was a knock on the door.
