The first one...Covenant Series, book six...
"All the old shows have their bad guys give that the first one is the hardest, it gets easier from there speech. Usually the bad guy in those old shows is talking about murder. I don’t have much reference on the credibility of that statement, the only people I’ve killed since that night in L.A. were the creatures like me. I plan on keeping it that way."
"Here’s something I do know though, certifiably. That first lie, told to the person who loves you, or at least professes to, is the easiest, but far from the worst. Lying to your lover only ever gets easier and easier and worse and worse until you wake up, neck deep in your forties splitting a house with a spiteful stranger who wouldn’t piss on you to put you out if you were on fire."
"I already did that, I had that. I got the t-shirt and earned the fucking badge and I tied my knots and them some with Diana. I also had the grace of not being so involved with Annabelle that telling her that truth, should it send her storming out in disgust, would break me. I didn’t go into gory details and I kept my answers simple and concise but yeah, I spelled it out and aired that dirtiest of laundry. I didn’t try to play up how they were all rapists, child molesters, and those earning off that trade. I didn’t try to explain it all away using the panic and the rage of having my son stolen away from me. I stuck the truth and decided for the first time in my life to be absolutely honest with someone who was obviously interested in me."
