Lowering my face I whispered in his ear. "Section 455: attempt to rape" As soon as he registers my words, I saw sweat run down from his forehead and he abruptly got up. "This is a lie!

I may or may not have supernatural abilities, but I have something you lack—integrity and loyalty to my friends." Audrey's confident facade faltered and her eyes narrowed as she glared at Sarah. "You think you're so righteous, don't you? But mark my words, Sarah, your little search for the truth will lead you down a dangerous path.

“We can demonstrate that he’s the one actually endangering security through corruption, power plays, and manipulating the Tribunal for personal gain.” Kane leaned over to look at my notes, clearly interested. “You’re really good at this.

"You... What do you want? Julien, don't mess around. We're living under the rule of law. Do you want to beat me?" Julien looked at the afraid Stephen with contempt in his eyes. "The rule of law? It seems that you've admitted what you just did. You hurt Leaf's self-esteem, tried to divide her and me, and created rumors about her.
