Quotes[]
- "She (Cassie's mother) was the heir," Pritkin told me, his lips thin with rage. "She had to be pure, untouched, as she knew very well. But she had an affair with your father, a vampire's servant! And worse, she hid it from the Circle until she became pregnant with you and ran away with him. Who knows what would have happened to the power, had we let it fill an unclean vessel?" — John Pritkin to Cassandra Palmer, Touch the Dark [11]
