Castor Valor Quotes

“Don't you have virgin blood to drink or something?'

'Virgin blood?' Castor smiled one of those devastating vampire smiles as he shoved a hand through his hair in very devil-may-care fashion. 'What kind of stories have you been reading about me?'

'I don't read any stories about you,' Lala huffed, but Evangeline swore there was a deeper colour on her cheeks.

'So it's just a coincidence that you're quoting one of them?'

'I know you drink blood,' she said.

Castor's gaze turned heated. I'd like to drink your blood, it seemed to say.”

“If Evangeline ever gets her memories back, she'll never forgive you for this.'

'At least she'll be alive to hate me.”

“Are you going to come down or do I need to set the apothecary on fire?'

'That threat might work better if you actually had a torch,' Castor replied.”

“Chaos quickly threw up his hands. 'You're not in danger. I'm here because a friend of ours needs help- your help. He's about to make a horrible decision and you need to change his mind before it's too late to save him. I'm not here to hurt you, Evangeline.'

'Then why don't you get the hell away from her,' growled Archer.

Evangeline hadn't heard him approach. She just turned and suddenly Archer- Jacks- was there. It was easier to think of him as Jacks as she watched him, striding swiftly in between the crates, glaring at Chaos with murder in his eyes.

'I don't want you near her. Ever.' Jacks pulled out his sword, and before Chaos had time to speak, he shoved the blade right through his chest.”

“What are you doing here?' Her lips twisted with displeasure.

'I just saved your friend's life.' Chaos replied sharply.

And was it just Evangeline's imagination, or did he puff out his chest?
...
'Well, I'm here now, so-' Lala waved a hand toward the forest.

'Did you just dismiss me?' Castor asked.

'I tried,' Lala said.”

“Have you ever successfully stopped Jacks?' asked Castor.

Lala raised her chin imperiously. 'I once stabbed him with a butter knife.'

'I remember that butter knife fiasco,'
Evangeline said. 'It caused a great mess. Speaking of messes- what are we going to do about Jacks's heart?'

'I say we kidnap Aurora and torture her until she tells us where it is,' said Lala.

'I'm not letting you torture my sister,' Castor interrupted.

'Your sister is a monster!'

Castor's nostrils flared. 'We are all monsters.”

“What has put you in such a foul mood?' Castor asked. 'Were you watching Evangeline again?'

'I'm not here because of her,' Jacks snapped.

'Well, you're certainly snippy about her.'

Jacks glared. 'And you're in a disturbingly good mood for someone who just slaughtered an entire family.”

“I remember all of it,' she said. 'I remember everything from the moment we met in your church to the night at the Valory Arch. I'm sorry it took me so long.'

'It doesn't matter,' Jacks said flippantly, still smiling crookedly as he dropped the apple in his hand. It fell to the ground with a heavy thud.

'Evangeline. Back away from him,' called a smoky voice through the trees. It was vaguely familiar, but she couldn't place it until Chaos carefully stepped closer. 'He's not safe right now.'

'I'm never safe,' Jacks said. Then with a smirk toward his old friend, he added, 'Playing the hero doesn't suit you, Castor.'

'At least I don't give up just because I fail.'

'I'm not giving up,' Jacks drawled. 'I'm giving the girl what she wants.' His fingers moved down her jaw to Evangeline's chin. For a second, time seemed to slow as he carefully lifted her chin in a way that made her think of only one thing: kissing.

Evangeline felt suddenly sober.

'Isn't this what you want?' Jacks whispered.”

“Everyone has two different hearts,' Chaos said. 'There is the heart that beats and keeps you alive. Then there is the other heart, the second heart, the one that breaks instead of beats, the one that loves so that there is a point to all this living.”
