Quotes from Judith E. French

Suddenly, the window swung open and a man's silhouette appeared against a flash of lightning. The candle was blown out by the wind, leaving the room in semidarkness. Elizabeth blinked, not certain if she had really seen the man or not. "Is someone there?" "Eliz-a-beth." A shadow detached itself from the darkness and moved toward her. Her heartbeat quickened. "Cain?" "I told you I would come for you, Eliz-a-beth.

This one has love for you, Eliz-a-beth," he murmured. "Since I took you from the sea, we were bound together." He pulled back, and his eyes sought hers. "Be you content, ki-te-hi, truly?

I love you, my blue-eyed lynx," he whispered huskily.

I am a warrior. I kill because I must. I kill to protect those who cannot protect themselves—and you did not thank me for saving your life, but you are welcome, just the same.
