From somewhere in the end of the Act 2 in the novel:
“Ah-what?” Volya owed his throat a round of applause--this gurgling conveyed the content of his thoughts exactly.
“Your singing lessons,” Liam clarified, starting up that bewitching smile of his.
Not posted yet, but...
"No way we're making it out of this one alive..." Alice looked out at the approaching creatures with a mixture of awe and sadness on her face.
Nathan drew his sword, the blade glowing a pale blue and sending a ringing off into the dead of night. "Yeah, well... let's at least take some of these bastards with us."
“What the heck is wrong with you, lady?!” Jesse shouted at her, grabbing Chantel’s hand and pulling her close to him.
The women just cracked a sinister smile at them, “You must Mr. Travolo and his buddies’ pretty, new, little muse. Tell that bastard I want that Miracle Drink!”
“What is going on?”
I put on my counsellor voice, my mask that helped me to stay calm as my heart felt close to exploding.
“Something incredible, my dear. Something that is going to change the lives of millions forever. I don’t have the ability to explain it here though. I need you to come with me. You need to see it for yourself.”
“Any news of Dacia?” She asked Nesmir, using Esamus to speak.
“None since we left, a day ago.” He looked up from her unconscious self at her. “It is so strange to speak to you this way.”
“That’s the brain.” We remained silent for a moment, I refrained from saying the first thing that came to mind was ‘huh… gross.’ and looked at her slightly traumatized and numbed self.
“You could say that… He’s all over you! Haha!” I tried to lighten the mood with a joke.
This happens in a chapter later in the story, my releases will need to catch up.
Episode 4
“Are you of good health today your Majesty?” I ask with a calm voice. His face remained stoic, like he didn’t hear me at all.
“Hmm.”
So you can’t even be bothered to say a single word!?
“So, is this a date?” I blurted out.
Jack turned his head my way and smiled. “Do you want it to be?”
I looked up to thank him, only to find that he was barely an inch away from me. “Thanks.”
Aryan took a good look at my face, an unreadable expression across it. “You’ve got to be the klutziest, powerful woman I’ve ever met.”
Have not posted for a while
“Walk away from this kid.”
“What?”
“You bailout, let me take care of my business and you get to live for another day.”
“And by “business” you kill the runaways?”
“Exactly. Rookies like you shouldn’t be on the battlefield. You’re just asking yourself to be killed on site. Walk away from this if you value your life. Take the smart choice if I were you kid.”
From the Ep.1:
"-I thought you might want some company."
"-I don't know why I'm surprised. Honestly! Who else would think of keeping me company in my last hours than Death himself!"
Happy Sunday! <3

Blood-red eyes honed on him and his sister’s face darkened, her teeth bared as her expression contorted into a demonic visage, “I MADE A PROMISE! I WON’T LET HIM DIE!”
“THEN WHY ARE YOU JUST WATCHING?!”
Still a draft:
“-James?”
“-What?”
“-Could you please turn and just tell me what you see?”
“-Is it behind me, just now?”
She shook her head slowly. “-I just wanna be sure I do not see things that aren’t there. Could you please turn around?” She repeats.
James turns his neck: “-No way!”
“-That’s a television, right?”
“-Yeah, and it looks fancy. Wanna go check?”
Katherine nods her head while walking in the direction of the device that appeared from pure nothingness. After a couple of steps in silence, they approached the device. It was a plasma TV. No connection cord: “- You think it works?”
Next to the vast plasma, there was an ugly floral sofa. James found the remote and directed it to the black screen: “-Let’s check!”
_“-Fuck it does!”; Katherine and James look at the screen. They saw immobile images of streets, families having their meal, the ocean, airplanes flying over a town, crowds walking, open offices, nights in forests. Everything seems frozen. _
“-Is it broken?” asks Katherine.
“-It looks almost like photos? Each channel is the same.”; James was intrigued. He was zapping the plasma. Each channel would show a different part of the world, but nothing moves, no sound, but it looked terribly alive.
A little sample on episode 9 from:
From the chapter, The Three Sons,iii of Of Bones and Blooms going live tomorrow.
“Trouble in paradise?” [Baccus] tipped the tea back as he stared down Ophelia.
“I don’t understand your brother.”
He huffed, “which one?”
Ophelia shot him a glare. “Mavus.”
“What’s not to understand? He seems rather easy to me. He’s got a half-mast for justice and a longing for a voyage.”
Honestly, it's one of my favorite lines.
“Grandfather talk sense. You’re chattering like a fool.” Elizabeth said, the sarcasm suddenly gone from her voice as she looks at her Grandfather with a scared look on her face.
“You are a sorceress, and it is your destiny to walk through this portal and learn how to use your powers, so you can properly use them.”

Episode 11: Checkmate
"What do I owe you for giving me your presence my lord?"
The man observed her carefully, thinking of each step he will take to counter every sly word that will come from the woman's mouth.
"A little of information would appease me." he put his long and thin fingers lightly on the table in front of the lady. But not long after it retreated to him.
"Also, a shred of loyalty would be delightful." he added with a calculating glare.

What We Buried Underneath Our Breath
Episode 1: What I do Underneath the Tree
“There’s a rumor that if you go to the alley at twilight. You’ll either see a woman in black who brings a scythe or a man in white who brings a staff. If you see the woman, someone or something will die around there. If you see the man, someone sick will be healed. You want to check it out?” his face gleamed with excitement of discovering something unknown.
Sightings like that were not uncommon in our hometown and it made sense because the alley was near a hospital. But it’s only a rumor. The reason why it spread could also be so people won’t come there, that place is a shady place as far as I know.
“Mommy and Daddy said it’s dangerous to go there. A lot of uncivilized people tend to come there,” I argued.
Bartley tapped on the screen and turned the phone to face Sandra. He wiggled it in front of her, taunting her. When she took a closer look, the color drained from her face. Seeing her reaction, Bartley sneered. “If you don’t want people knowing where you are, then don’t geotag your pictures.”
Thomas sneaked a glance at the phone. It was the picture of chicken chop that Sandra had snapped not more than thirty minutes ago. A wave of anger lanced through his body. He shot out of his seat, the metal legs of the table screeching against the floor as he did.
Thomas was a head shorter than the man but that did not stop him from shoving his face into Bartley’s. Furious eyes burnt into the lecherous man as he snarled. “For that, I can charge you with stalking. You won’t even be able to hold down a job in this town with another mark on your record, you hear me??”
Amelia chipped in after Darren’s explanation, “So, what do you say, Hal? Can you help him?”
“I can help in exchange for your souls...” Halden smirked.
Instead of a deep chortle, Tristan’s burning eyes heard a sultry chuckle, that single bulging eye splitting into two, the brown irises reddening, “You may have gotten me before, but now look whose’s on top!”
“Shu-shut…up” He managed to speak, his hands trembling as he was losing his grip on the world.
