It scared me that someone I had never spoken to could shake my walls without me doing anything. "Why are you still here if you don't like the way he makes you feel? Admit it.

"If it's any consolation, I'm one of the wallflowers now," Chad laughed heartily, glancing around us. "There's no way you could pass up as a wallflower, Camille. All the men can barely take their eyes off you." "What," I drawled in a falsetto and took a sip. "No. That's ridiculous."

“I bet you’re never lonely. It’s hard to be lonely when you have everything you could dream of or want. All you have to do is walk over and tell a servant something and you'll have what you desire in just a few short moments.” “You’d so lose that bet. I don’t have everything I want.

"But no one will ever beat you." "YEAH!" another one exclaimed. "I mean, who wouldn’t want a guy like you? YOU’RE LITERALLY THE WALKING DREAM OF EVERY SHE-WOLF!"
