‘Unleashed?’  He raises his eyebrows.
She nods.  ‘And tonight is about helping you unleash it.’
‘Er, right.’
‘Don’t look so worried,’ she says.  ‘You’re ready for this.  I can see it – I can feel it.  Goddamn it, I can smell it.’
‘That’ll be the pizza,’ he says.

‘What?’
He takes a deep breath of the stifling kitchen air.  ‘I think it is the right time to tell the children.’
‘Peter, we have to keep them safe.  We have to keep everything safe.  I want you to be realistic.’

My teaser this week is from Take a Chance On Me by Jill Mansell (Sorry, I know it is quite a bit longer than two sentences but I just couldn’t cut it down any more!):

Cleo watched as Mandy jumped guiltily and, in her tequila’d-up state, attempted to conceal the identity of her companion by shoving his head against her chest.  From here, it looked as if he was having a coughing fit.  Maybe he was suffocating in her cleavage.  Then Mandy leapt back in horror, shoving him away from her so hard he went crashing back against the shop door.  She was screaming, repulsed, staggering all over the pavement with her arms outstretched and her fingers like claws.
Oh dear God, he’d only gone and thrown up on her.

I nodded and we approached the rock, our steps filled with both eagerness and apprehension.  After all this time and all the failed efforts, it didn’t seem possible that we’d really done it.  Something was going to happen.  Something had to happen.

‘Artemis,’ said the young woman.  ‘Goddess of the Chase and Young Maidens.’
‘What’s your business with me?’
‘None.  I have come to see a young woman who serves the queen.  No longer a maiden, alas.  That is why I am weeping.’

My teaser this week is from Storm Born by Richelle Mead.  I actually finished reading it late last night and haven’t started my next book yet so I thought I would pick a teaser from this one instead.

“Make no mistake, mistress.  I may protect you now, but as soon  as I have the chance, I will rip the flesh from your body and tear your bones apart.  I will ensure you suffer so gravely that you will beg me for death.  Yet, even then, your soul will not find relief.  I will torture it for all eternity.”
He spoke in a flat tone, not as a threat, but simply as a statement of fact.

In fact, very little about him was as it appeared.  From his thoughts she learned that the bulge pressing against her lower stomach was a cucumber he’d shoved down his pants, his broad shoulders were a result of padding under his jacket, and the attractive tan he sported came from a bottle.

Irial’s nature had been altered long before Niall ever drew breath.  Becoming the Dark King had changed him, made him able to control the impact of his touch.  Niall had no such recourse: he was left with memories of mortals who’d withered and died for lack of his embrace.
