How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
He hesitated again. "It's a form of magic."
A burst of laughter escaped my lips. "Are you being serious? Because, just so you know, magic isn't real." (13.61-62)
Even though Gemma has suddenly been transported to a random house outside of Las Vegas, she still doesn't totally believe magic is real. The idea that Aislin is a witch with magical powers seems ridiculous… even if it's the only explanation for what's just happened.
Quote #5
It sounded way too fictional. All saving the world from evil and demons and vampires. Yeah, I know, he hadn't actually mentioned vampires but… God, what if there were actual vampires. (13.180)
Talk about a bit of foreshadowing. Gemma thinks there's no way that vampires exist in the real world, but little does she know that she's standing in a vampire's house at that very moment.
Quote #6
Could I really be sitting in the desert next to a vampire, all while harboring the energy of a fallen star inside me? There was so much wrong with that statement, yet, in a bizarre, twisted way, it felt right. (15.102)
Gemma has learned all sorts of stuff about magic and fallen stars and even vampires, but somehow it all feels normal to her. Sitting next to Laylen (the vampire) doesn't freak her out nearly as much as she thought it would.
