Teasing Quotes

“I still have one question,' she said.

If the story curse had been capable of breathing, it might have held its breath just then.

It watched as the not-quite-human-boy raised an offended brow. 'You only have one?'

'No- I actually have far more.' She worried her lips between her white teeth.

Something shifted in the not-quite-human's eyes; he looked as if he wanted to take her lip between his teeth as well. 'You can ask me whatever you want, Little Fox.'

'Splendid!' Her mouth turned up into a sweet smile. 'Tell me about the apples.'

'Next question.'

'You said I could ask whatever I wanted.'

The not-quite-human-boy's eyes turned teasing, sparking with little flecks of silver. 'I didn't say that I would answer.

The girl's mouth fell into a pout.

The not-quite-human reached out with one finger and traced her lower lip. 'It doesn't matter,' he said softly. 'I don't need them anymore.”

“So you've decided to sacrifice me?' he asked.

“Kieran?'

He looked at me.

'Please... please try to be careful.'

He lifted his brows. 'Are you worried about me?'

Crossing my arms, I nodded.

'Don't be nice to me,' he replied, and I sensed amusement from him. 'It weirds me out.'

'Sorry.'

He smiled then as he walked to where I stood. 'You don't sound remotely sorry.'

I grinned at him.

'Do me a favour,' Kieran said, looking down at me. 'Protect your Prince, Poppy.”

“You're an absolutely stunning, murderous little creature,' he murmured.

'There'll be time for all the sweet whispers later,' Jasper said, and when Casteel pulled back, there was a fire in his eyes. 'You do look quite lovely, Penellaphe.'

'Thank you,' I said.

'What about me?' Casteel asked, and behind him, Naill sighed.

'You look passable.'

'That was rude,' he replied.

'Would you like to go sit in the shade and nurse your wounded feelings? Like you did when you were young and inevitably injured yourself doing something incredibly stupid?'

Casteel's brows lowered as he looked over at Jasper. 'This marriage ceremony is starting off in a really weird way.”

“You saw me but didn't say hello? I'm wounded, Miss Antonius.'

Synton's voice was like a deep rumble of thunder in her ear as he finally dropped his hands but didn't step back.

'Perhaps I was getting the lay of the land. A lady must know where it's safe to step,' she quipped.

'Yet you're stepping all over my ego.'

'Forgive me, my lord. I had no idea you'd be so easily damaged.”
― Kerri Maniscalco, Throne of the Fallen

"You're holding it, little firecracker." As soon as the words left my mouth, she shot me a horrified look.
Oh, that bothered her. The nickname was staying.”
― Sabrina Blackburry, Dirty Lying Dragons

“Fuck me."
"Is that an offer?" The amusement on his face fanned flames of annoyance in me. Annoyance, and maybe a tiny little bit of temptation.”
― Sabrina Blackburry, Dirty Lying Dragons

“I'm not most people.'

'Most people aren't as insane as you,' I said in a throaty voice that wasn't mine.

'That's not a very nice thing to say.' He scraped harder with his sharp teeth, just below where he'd bitten me before, and I gasped as my body jerked. 'And the truth is, you like my brand of insanity.'

My blood pounded through me in a dizzying push. 'I don't like anything about you.'

He laughed as his lips skimmed the side of my throat. 'I love how you lie.”

“A woman in possession of a bomb is in want of a reason to use it."
"Oh god help us, she's been reading old shit again." Kuma said.
"Hanging up now," Naira said. "Tell me if anything blows up that's not supposed to."
She hung up before Cav could get out more than a mangled " but-"
Naira half sensed eyes on her, and half turned to arch a brow at Tarquin.
"Pride and Prejudges?" He grinned sheepishly and brushed the hair off his forehead. "I knew you read nonfiction, but somehow fiction didn't fit in with all the... shooting and bombing.”

“Don't cry.' He lifted my hand to his mouth and kissed the centre of my palm.

'I'm not crying. I'm not sad,' I told him, and he grinned. The stupid dimple in his right cheek appeared. 'I hate that stupid dimple.'

'You know what I think?' He kissed the tip of my finger.

'I don't care.'

The dimple in his left cheek appeared. 'I think you feel the exact opposite when it comes to my stupid dimples.”

― Courtney Walsh, Can't Help Falling

“Did you really think you'd escape me?' Casteel asked softly.

Anger was sharper than any blade, far more welcomed than the hopelessness. 'I almost did.'

'Almost means nothing, Princess. You should know that.'

I did. 'I'm not walking back to that keep.'

'Would you prefer that I carry you?' he offered.

'I would prefer never to see your face again.'

'Now all three of us know that's a lie.”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire

“Then I guess it would be repetitive of me to tell you how much you're turning me on now?'

'That and how incredibly disturbing it is.'

He smiled up at me, his eyes twin golden flames. 'I do so prefer hand-to-hand combat with you,' he said, catching my other wrist when I swung my fist down. 'I like how close it brings us, Princess.'

I shrieked my frustration- my irritation- at him. At myself. 'There is something so wrong with you!'

'Probably, but you know what?' He lifted his head off the ground. 'That's the part you like the most.”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire

“Poppy, you wound me. In my heart,' he said, placing his hand over his chest. 'Again.'

'Don't whine. You'll heal. Again,' I snapped. 'Unfortunately.'

He chuckled. 'I'm not the only one who is a liar, it appears.' Reaching down, he gripped the hem of his tunic. 'You'd be very sad if I didn't heal.'

'I wouldn't care-”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire

“I can't believe you're doing this.'

Casteel chuckled. 'Not like you haven't seen it all before.'

'That doesn't mean I need to see it all again,' ...”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire

“There's a lot we need to talk about, Poppy.'

'There is.' Namely the whole marriage nonsense. 'But talking doesn't require you to be shirtless.'

'Talking doesn't require any clothes at all.' That smoky grin of his returned. 'I can promise you that some of the most interesting conversations take place with no clothes to speak of.'''

Heat blasted my cheeks. 'I'm sure you've had a ton of experience with those types of conversations.'

'Jealous?' Propping his elbow on the arm of the chair, he rested his chin in his palm.

'Hardly.'

The grin increased, and even though I couldn't see the dimple beyond the fingers splayed across his jaw and cheek, I knew it had to be there. 'Then... distracted?'

'No,' I liked, and then lied some more. 'Not even remotely.'

'Ah, I understand. You're dazzled.'

'Dazzled?' A surprised laugh almost broke free. And there it was again, the slight widening of his eyes, the parting of his lips, and the absence of arrogance. It was like watching him slip off a mask, but I had no idea if what was revealed was just another mask, especially when the look disappeared as his features became unreadable again.

I exhaled slowly. 'We don't need to talk about your over-inflated ego. That has been long since established.”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire

“Kieran had finally, after about ten years, finished cutting up his food. 'May I have that? If you're done, that is? I'm not sure, but the last piece is a little thicker than the rest of the pieces.'

Slowly, he looked over at me. 'Would you like me to cut your food for you?'

'Would you like me to knock you off this bench?'

He chuckled deeply. 'Cas is right. You are incredibly violent.'

'No, I'm not.' I pointed my fork at him. 'I'm just not a child. I don't need someone else cutting my meat.'

'Uh-huh.' He handed the knife over, and I took it before he could change his mind.”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire

“Rhys leaned over and whispered. “Have a care, love. It’s already been slaughtered.”
Smile lines appeared at his eyes. “Now, if it were the roast at evening meal, then you’d have reason for your suspicions.”
That gave her pause. “Truly?”
He lowered his lips so close they nearly brushed the shell of her ear. “Does my mother strike you as one who’d tolerate a roast that is still mooing?”
― Christi Caldwell, To Tempt a Scoundrel

“Gently, he pried my fingers from the dagger. 'I'm just putting this down. It's still within reach in case you want to stab me.'

I watched him lean over me, placing it on my other side. 'I don't want to stab you,' I croaked out.

'That would be a first,' he teased, and I hiccupped a shaky laugh. 'Try to remember you said that later when I'm sure I'll give you a reason to stab me.”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire

“What are you doing?' I demanded.

'Making sure you're comfortable.'

'And how will you accomplish that by lying on top of me?'

'I won't.' A shadowy grin appeared. 'I'm doing that because I like lying on top of you.'

'Well, I don't.' I bit out, pulse thundering.

His chest brushed against mine, sending a velvet shiver through me. 'That's a lie.'

'It's not.' I held the dagger to his neck. 'Truly.”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire

“You are...'

'Marvellous? Charming? Undeniable?'

'Increasingly annoying.'

'But you still haven't used the dagger at my neck.'

'I'm trying to think of the people who will have to clean up the mess.'

'How thoughtful of you.”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire
