Lilith's Blessing 17
17. Olivia blinked, rubbed her eyes, blinking again. How? Why? What? The fires and explosions lit up the sky.

Her mouth didn’t move, but she spoke. Her words bypassed his ears.

Lilith's Blessing 13
Trevor stood behind the counter. Milk screeched as he lowered the steam wand. Alexia caught his attention just like every time she visited. Their eyes locked. He smiled. She smiled back. An awkward pause. He wrote her order down, two pumps of vanilla, four shots of espresso over ice, before she could order. He remembered, she thought as her mind raced with assumptions.

Lilith's Blessing 12
12. Days later, Constantine and Iulia ate fresh fruit, kinds they only saw in picture books. The contrast between the treatment of prisoners baffled the couple. Zuveans threw people into cells with only a bucket and hardtack bread. The Kushites fed them three times a day. The room had a bath and shower, fully stocked. Iulia took a bath the first night. He’d never seen her so relaxed.

Lilith's Blessing 4.5

Lilith's Blessing 8.5
8.5. Kira clasped her hands together. "That night was amazing." What is she talking about? Trevor thought to himself. His heart raced, and his mind blanked. He couldn't move; stuck, but warm. He shook his head, trying to break the cobwebs engulfing him. He didn't remember.
