Quinn would give up his life for his family, but none of the people in the house right now were family. “I don’t think I would for anyone. Family, I would, but that is a given when it comes to shifters. I believe blood is thicker than water.” Quinn told her with a slight shrug of his shoulders. He could tell that she didn’t understand. Hell, he didn’t really understand the emotions running around in his mind. Quinn wanted to scream at the walls that he didn’t understand or punch them. Nix seemed to understand that he was frustrated and confused.

And family isn’t always blood. It’s the people in your life who want you in theirs, the one who accepts you for who you are. The one who would do anything to see you smile and who loves no matter what because blood may be thicker than water, but love is thicker than anything. And I don’t have to tell you how much Eva loves you.”, he said and kissed my forehead.

It’s like that TV show hunter, Dean Winchester, said. ‘Family doesn’t end in blood, but it doesn’t start there, either. Family cares about you, not what you can do for them. Family’s there through the good, the bad-all of it. They got your back, even when it hurts. That’s family.’ As we walked back to the party and I looked at the collection of werewolves, vampires, angels, and demons, I knew this was my family. Just as Suzu is likely looking down, proud and happy for Hana, I hope my oma is doing the same for me.

I nodded thoughtfully as I enjoyed the richness of the strawberry-infused coffee. “So, back to you. What do you consider family, Noah?” “People related by blood,” I said, though I already knew where she was going with this. “Family goes beyond that, Noah.

"He will never hurt you. Mommy is here to protect you. You have your aunts and uncle to protect you. Always. Okay?" "And Don?" I shiver at his name coming from my son's mouth. "Don is as big as a gorilla but soft like a puppy. He can protect us." "We shouldn't involve someone who isn't our family." "But Tita Thea and Tita Effie are dating his brothers. So that counts as family." "Yes, but they are not blood." "So, having a family doesn't have to be blood. Families are created with or without blood." I eye him in amusement. I know my son is bright, but I never hear such wise words from him. "Where did you hear this from?"

“That he stole your mate – Damian and Brian’s mother. I don’t want to belong to his bloodline.” Edward clucks and brushes my hair back from my face. “None of us can change where we come from, Gloria.” He states softly. “But your upbringing taught you a lesson most of us don’t learn until much later in life: the family you choose can be a thousand times better than the one you were born into. Blood may be thicker than water – but so are a lot of things… mayonnaise, frosting, gravy…”

"Maybe they didn't know about you." A bitter chuckle escaped him. "Someone knew. They knew enough to send word about my mom being killed." He stared at her eyes that now seemed to search for more in his. "You know that saying 'blood is thicker than water'?" She nodded. "It's bullshit.
