Until in A Sentence

    1

    A few floated away until caught by another current while others settled nearby.

    2

    A flare of interest was in Darkyn's black gaze, one that made her realize he wasn't leaving until he was finished with her.

    3

    A long time passed until both heard the muffled but distinct sound of Martha's quiet sobbing in her adjacent room.

    4

    A lot of sounds-like, seems-like conversation followed until consensus settled on Mulligan.

    5

    A simple reconnoiter until I have all the pieces to my chess game.

    6

    Actually, I never gave it much thought until I found the window open.

    7

    Added to the group were various newcomers, ignorant until now of the young girl's recent odyssey.

    8

    After milling about until nearly nine o'clock, the entire group began to trek up to the ice park and, as Claire Quincy put it, view this craziness.

    9

    After seeing his name tattooed across her back and the look of pure murder on his face, she hid in the closet until certain he was gone.

    10

    Again she coughed until she retched.

    11

    Alex had agreed to watch the kids until she got back.

    12

    Alex was in a good mood and it was a pleasant trip - until Felipa made a comment about Tessa's visit the night before.

    13

    All is well and good until things turn down for a nation.

    14

    And I'll stay until the issue is fixed.

    15

    And remember—innocent until proven guilty, she answered as she readied for bed.

    16

    And so the fun went on until the clock showed that it lacked only ten minutes till school would be dismissed.

    17

    And they did not feel themselves safe until they were once more in Boston.

    18

    Any thoughts of Shipton could wait until later.

    19

    Are you going to fill us in or just keep rocking until you wear a hole in the porch?

    20

    As usual, the phone rang until her voicemail picked up.

    21

    At least wait until the doctor sees her.

    22

    At the first taste, she wolfed it and three more pieces down until the edge of her hunger disappeared.

    23

    Based on her medical records, the tumor didn't grow until she hit puberty and didn't interfere with her ability to function before a few years ago, Wynn started.

    24

    Being shorter than everyone else would be a boon this night; she waited until the two were out of sight before fading back toward the house.

    25

    Brandon Westlake remained under his colorful cover until he was sure the Deans were with wheels.

    26

    Brushing her hair until it shined, she put her clothes on over the new underwear and headed for the kitchen to start supper.

    27

    But I must put away these idle fancies until we meet again.

    28

    But Miss Sullivan did not arrive until the following March.

    29

    But she couldn't help feeling as if she'd never truly known the man she loved until someone else told her what she missed.

    30

    But the bear hadn't killed the bull until it became entangled in the brush.

    31

    But the election isn't until August and that's a long way off.

    32

    But then he pictured his beautiful wife, her unfailingly sweet and kind nature, and refused his mind's picture of her kneeling there in the snow, calmly sawing Shipton's rope until it parted, plunging him to his bloody death.

    33

    But this man, an enemy who had—up until now—wanted to kill her, left her feeling a little less alone.

    34

    But until they choose to remember that, they ask another favor of you, their last.

    35

    But we did not begin the story until August; the first few weeks of my stay at the seashore were so full of discoveries and excitement that I forgot the very existence of books.

    36

    But yes, I came to kill her, until I saw the medallion.

    37

    Carmen dozed in the chair a few times off and on until about midnight.

    38

    Carmen waited until he closed the car door.

    39

    Caught between consciousness and darkness, she hung limply for a long time, until the man holding her flung her onto a hard floor.

    40

    Comfortable in the plush office chair, she propped her feet up on her desk and continued to sketch until the picture began to look as she wanted it to.

    41

    Consider it an advance until you get the package.

    42

    Corday nodded to the others who slowly left the room until he and Fitzgerald were the only two officers remaining.

    43

    Cynthia just shook her head, not answering, until Dean held her at arm's length and insisted on a response.

    44

    Cynthia looked about to cry, but her anger held her tears in check, at least until they were back in bed.

    45

    Cynthia said, "Fitzgerald didn't even know he was going to run for sheriff until he became irritated at David."

    46

    Cynthia talked him out of it until more was learned of Fitzgerald's present whereabouts.

    47

    Damian replaced his necklace around her neck, a small comfort until his work in the European front was finished.

    48

    Damian's home videos played, intertwined with those of others, until a wave of power washed over her.

    49

    Darkyn tipped her chin up, until she met his gaze again.

    50

    Dean didn't answer but had no intention of asking the boys diddly, at least for the near future, at least until he sensed what was going on.

    51

    Dean found nothing useful until he looked in the trash.

    52

    Dean took his wife's hand and pulled her to her feet and held her until her sobbing subsided.

    53

    Dean tuned Fred to the off position until his stepfather floated back to reality and continued.

    54

    Dean wished Cynthia had waited until they were alone to bring up the subject.

    55

    Death is the only definite, and so it's the first vision you see until you hone your skills.

    56

    Deidre drank more of the brandy, until it stopped burning her throat, and the world grew a little less sharp around the edges.

    57

    Deidre drank until she grew sleepy.

    58

    Deidre leaned forward until she was resting against the demon, who didn't move away.

    59

    Deidre waited until the portal closed then bolted out of the gardens.

    60

    Desolation absorbed her into her thoughts, until Jade spoke again.

    61

    Dodging cobwebs by the dozens, she pushed on until deciding she had reached a point behind the building.

    62

    Doing research, mostly on-line with my computer and the library for a while, but it's closed until Monday.

    63

    Dusty watched her until they disappeared.

    64

    Dusty's jaw clenched until he felt the muscles tick.

    65

    Either that, or someone up here waited until he was out of sight before they took out the knife.

    66

    Embarrassed, she didn't notice her right foot reaching nothing but air until she toppled backwards.

    67

    Even Jennifer Radisson's visit was forgotten until the doorbell rang just before seven.

    68

    Fascinated by the texture of his palm, she took and held his hand up until she was able to see the roughness of his calloused palm.

    69

    First off, all the ice climbers are leaving so there's no hurry cleaning up what's going to be empty rooms, probably until the weekend.

    70

    For a long moment, it was dark and silent, until the interior of the pod lit up with two screens, one displaying the empty space outside and the other displaying a control panel with writing similar to that of the battle planning station.

    71

    Fred O'Connor seemed a tad put out that he'd been absent from the final confrontation in the Lucky Pup Mine until Dean reminded him that without his Internet connection and library research, Martha's bones would still be without identity.

    72

    From what I hear, one ex-guest doesn't have any more welfare and the welfare of the rest of the group can wait until morning.

    73

    Frustrated, she searched the Internet for Dr. Williams until she found the eminent neurologist, whose picture she recognized.

    74

    Gabriel grabbed at it, until he saw the shape of a man form beneath a haze of green.

    75

    Gabriel had never felt inadequate in his life until that moment.

    76

    Gabriel stayed on the beach until the sun began to set.

    77

    Gabriel waited until he was gone before pulling a chair to the side of the bed.

    78

    Gabriel waited until they were gone.

    79

    Glancing at the clock on her nightstand, she waited until certain her father had left then rose.

    80

    Grass tickled her hands, a chilled wind nipped her neck, and the scents from her vision intensified until she was near gagging.

    81

    Han, until I let you go back to war, you'll be her bodyguard.

    82

    He beat the air mercilessly with his wings, rising high above the city and coasting on cold wind currents until he reached the ocean.

    83

    He changed so gradually, he didn't notice how much different he'd become, until he realized how much he was enjoying talking to his friend.

    84

    He continued to grope his way forward until the first turn in the tunnel closed off what little light spilled in from the entrance.

    85

    He could picture her climbing onto the velvet chair, perhaps even smiling, before kicking it away, and waiting the few agonizing moments until death set her free.

    86

    He could picture her, holding the hem of her gown, climbing onto the chair, perhaps even smiling, before kicking it away, and waiting the few agonizing moments until death took her hand and led her to its darkness.

    87

    He didn't act concerned when she told him she had looked at them - not until she questioned the source.

    88

    He didn't slow until they reached their quarters.

    89

    He drank deep and long until she began to grow woozy.

    90

    He drank long, until she was swaying and leaning against him.

    91

    He eased into her body at first then made love to her hungrily, relentlessly pushing her deeper into the haze of pleasure and desire, until she arched beneath him, her body on the verge of shattering.

    92

    He fought until the yard was lit only by the castle.s outer lighting, then onward to dawn, free after so long restraining himself around the Immortals and humans.

    93

    He hacked him apart until there was nothing but pulp.

    94

    He had decided to play until that score reached forty-three thousand.

    95

    He hadn't believed the words himself until he said them.

    96

    He hadn't noticed until Kiki's words.

    97

    He kneaded her breasts, wanting nothing better than to suckle her until she cried out in ecstasy.

    98

    He listened without comment until I'd finished.

    99

    He pulled her closer to him, until their sides were pressed together, then released her as the weird energy fluttered through her.

    100

    He ran until his pounding heart drowned out his pounding feet.

    101

    He remained in the same spot until she returned.

    102

    He repositioned Selyn's head then gripped her chin and squeezed her cheeks until her mouth opened.

    103

    He said nothing more, as if unwilling to say more until the identity verification was done.

    104

    He sank his teeth into someone and never let go, until they were in Hell.

    105

    He sensed Deidre but didn't go to her, instead walking through the open-aired hallways until he reached the quarters reserved for him.

    106

    He shook the newspaper and said nothing more until Sarah announced that supper was ready.

    107

    He snatched her neck and squeezed until her ability to breathe was hindered.

    108

    He split us up, in the dark, until we were so scared we'd do anything to get out of there.

    109

    He steadied himself, pulling upright until he was sure of his footing.

    110

    He stood gazing down at her until his expression became sultry.

    111

    He strode through the halls and stairwells until he broke free of the castle.

    112

    He strode to her and snatched her arm, squeezing until it hurt.

    113

    He strolled among the self-conscious pets and people, smiling and looking until he was sure she wasn't there.

    114

    He struggled to free his arms from the invisible bonds, his eyesight darkening until he dropped into unconsciousness.

    115

    He suspected Death always thought him weaker despite service that had been, until now, flawless.

    116

    He tugged her forward until their bodies met.

    117

    He waited in the library until he'd composed himself and left for his suite.

    118

    He waited until the following day, after he killed his wife.

    119

    He waited until the officer stepped outside.

    120

    He wanted to mourn and tread water until the inevitable.

    121

    He was on the Council until shortly after I died-dead, after which he betrayed the Immortals to work for the Dark One, Darkyn's predecessor.

    122

    He was quiet, unaware of the depths of her hurt until now.

    123

    He was sitting in the waiting room where they had sent him until she arrived.

    124

    He watched explosions wrack his planet until they rose high enough that the toxic dust storm he'd started marred the surface of the planet from view.

    125

    He watched for quite a while, until the model reached a level that had taken him years of apprenticeship under his father to achieve.

    126

    He whirled, called for a portal and left his betrayer, his former lover, the woman who had been his world, until she snatched it from him.

    127

    He would stay in this holding cell on the outskirts of Hell until Sasha figured out some new grueling punishment.

    128

    He wrapped a thick arm around her and pulled her against him until her back was pressed against his chest.

    129

    He'd always hoped Rhyn would have another chance, that Hell was a place to stash the dangerous immortal until the world was ready for him.

    130

    He'd begun to think their recruitment standards were slipping until Jake mentioned the operation.

    131

    He'd continue the war until he won back his planet and birthright by force, then find another way to heal his planet.

    132

    He'd floundered up until now.

    133

    He'd forced her to stay awake through it all despite her fainting spells, tearing open her veins and feeding until she was too weak to fight him.

    134

    He'd hugged her before, an anomaly, she was sure, until his arms now moved around her again.

    135

    He'd left her door broken and postponed leaving the ship until she calmed.

    136

    He'd never been guilty in his role as an assassin or as Death, until sitting with her on the beach.

    137

    He'd obeyed the Code and his predecessor without question, until forced to choose between them and his conscience.

    138

    He'll let us stew until he's damn good and ready.

    139

    Heavy brush had totally obscured the entrance until someone had quite recently cut and pulled away the branches, exposing the opening.

    140

    Her air supply cut off, she tore at the hand holding her until the skin on his arm fell away to reveal smooth, black skin more akin to a reptile's than a human's.

    141

    Her eagerness lasted until she stepped from the apartment building to the sidewalk lining a busy street.

    142

    Her feet skidded out from under her and she spun around, clutching desperately to the limb, twisting into a sitting position and sliding until she was sitting before him.

    143

    Her first shower in days made her want to stay in the hot water forever, until one of the men staying at the hostel entered the bathroom.

    144

    Her gaze stayed on Katie's neck until one of the others addressed her.

    145

    Her headache had been gone most of the morning for the first time in months, until the monster in her head started clawing at her mind.

    146

    Her heart fluttered at his words, and she grew excited about him wanting the type of relationship like she'd drawn, until she saw him fumbling with the page as if to pull it free.

    147

    Her heart slowed, and she stepped back, imagining the Immortal fighting off some demon that had stayed hidden until dark.

    148

    Her pace slowed as she thought until she was walking, troubled.

    149

    Her resolve lasted until her father left for dinner with their wealthy neighbors.

    150

    Her shot nerves calmed until she rubbed a towel against the misty mirror and saw the tattoo again.

    151

    Her skin began to flush until it was pink enough to look human rather than the sleep of the dead.

    152

    His big hands came up, grasping her wrists and pulling her forward until her armpits rested on his shoulders.

    153

    His clothing was thick and heavy this night, as if he expected to be standing outside her window until dawn.

    154

    His command was weak, yet the air around her stiffened until she hit an invisible wall.

    155

    His first inclination was to stay as far away from Bird Song as possible until Shipton was long gone.

    156

    His gaze followed her until she disappeared into the house, and he shook his head.

    157

    His hand slid up to her elbow, and he drew her into him, until his warmth and scent enveloped her.

    158

    His new schedule often sent him to bed early and kept him there until the last moment.

    159

    His quiet power was underwhelming, until one saw him in action.

    160

    His resolve lasted until she spoke, and he saw the truth of her words and the expression on her face.

    161

    However, they needed more supplies—additional batteries, a second flashlight, and marking chalk—all to be purchased at the variety store, which didn't open until eight o'clock.

    162

    Hysteria gripped her, and she fought him until he slung her over his shoulder.

    163

    I am bone-weary of the degradation, of wearing my false coquettish smile, pretending love, until they spill themselves within me.

    164

    I ask the reader to resist the urge to pigeonhole me until the end of the section.

    165

    I can hardly wait until you come home.

    166

    I can scarcely wait until Thursday next when we will again be in one another's company!

    167

    I can't tell you how many times I've had a hen set until the last few days and then leave the nest, spoiling the eggs.

    168

    I can't wait until he leaves.

    169

    I crept cautiously forward until I encountered a closed door, leading, I presumed, to the main house.

    170

    I did so, until Claire was sated and burped.

    171

    I didn't know until last night, she went on.

    172

    I didn't know what to tell you until then.

    173

    I didn't learn about it until Julie came up here and Quinn had left for California.

    174

    I don't know if I can wait until you beat Fitzgerald in the election.

    175

    I get to cool my heels at least until tomorrow.

    176

    I have to stay around until a few things are worked out.

    177

    I held her hands firmly until she became more calm.

    178

    I help them with marketing, which was my major until I quit school.

    179

    I lived in foster homes stateside up until then.

    180

    I made my way back to the kitchen and turned on the gas stove burner for enough light to rummage through drawers until I located a box of wooden matches.

    181

    I never even met Fred until a couple of days before she died.

    182

    I never had a bear on the place until you came along.

    183

    I never realized how lonely my mother was until you came.

    184

    I never thought of him as being anything else but a salesman until I saw him tonight, but he seems so... comfortable now.

    185

    I snuck down at night and went through all the trunks until I found the bones.

    186

    I stayed downstairs for another hour until Betsy came looking for me.

    187

    I thought he was pondering what I said until he spoke up.

    188

    I tickled him and told him I wouldn't stop until he told me to.

    189

    I understand from Dawkins' son his old man was paying Josh pretty well to be his mine manager—up until August of 1961 when Josh disappeared.

    190

    I was persuaded, however, to content myself with the gifts from the tree and leave the others until morning.

    191

    I was talking with Morino until almost midnight.

    192

    I wouldn't believe it was alive until I saw it move.

    193

    I.ll have this Lankha keep the Ancient in a deep sleep until you return.

    194

    I'll pass on this information to Frank but I don't know what he can do until this guy makes a mistake.

    195

    I'll probably be gone until noon or so.

    196

    I'll wait to touch you until after.

    197

    I'll wait until tomorrow.

    198

    I'm going to kill demons and collect souls, until I set things right.

    199

    I'm not going home until you talk to me.

    200

    I'm not going to give up until I break it!

    201

    I'm willing to stick my neck out but I can't until I get some answers from you.

    202

    If he tried, he.d be able to locate his target and track her as she moved until she was dead-dead.

    203

    If I have a doctor's note saying I'm under their care, isn't that good enough until they figure it out?

    204

    If I suggest her leaving a problem in arithmetic until the next day, she answers, "I think it will make my mind stronger to do it now."

    205

    If she gave herself a second to think, she'd stop and sob, until someone else came by and killed her.

    206

    If you keep it, hide it somewhere safe until you need to make a deal.

    207

    In such cases I was forced to repeat the words or sentences, sometimes for hours, until I felt the proper ring in my own voice.

    208

    Indeed, I feel as if I had never seen anything until now, Helen finds so much to ask about along the way.

    209

    It made her mind leap until she recalled she was supposedly on a spaceship.

    210

    It seemed to Dean she'd spent her life on the outside, in some respects by choice, somehow driven from one social plane down to another, much lower, until there was nothing left but death.

    211

    It tasted like a plain jelly bean, until she swallowed, when it felt like a stream of water spilled from the back of her mouth to her gullet.

    212

    It was a strawberry sunrise, topped with whipped cream clouds, a perfect sort of day until Dean was awake enough to remember Martha Boyd, lord knows where, escaping the law in a stolen twenty-year-old Buick, with a ditzy ex-junkie for a chauffeur.

    213

    It was early in the season for the little fellows—they usually stayed outside until the cold weather coaxed them indoors.

    214

    It was not long until the man came with another present.

    215

    It was not until Mr. Keith taught me that I had a clear idea of mathematics.

    216

    It was our father.s crypt, until yesterday, when Sasha stole our father.s body.

    217

    It wasn't like in the old house, where she would have slept cold, got up to a colder house and had to start a fire in an old stove, then wait an hour until she could no longer see her breath.

    218

    It wasn't until dusk, when Evelyn had said she'd come back, that she forced herself up.

    219

    It's hard to say there's no connection with the bones until we're sure there is a third Dawkins, who he or she is, and what the suit is all about.

    220

    It's only a matter of time until justice is served.

    221

    It's possible he waited around hours, until the afternoon when the police had left and it was quiet.

    222

    It's temporary custody at first until some court stuff takes place and we're married but the lawyer says Shipton definitely signed.

    223

    Jake was so quiet, she thought he left until he spoke again.

    224

    Jenn waited until he was far enough ahead that he wouldn't hear her before she trailed.

    225

    Jenn watched, confused, until he lowered his head to her neck.

    226

    Jennifer said nothing more for the remainder of the trip down the mountain until the Jeep finally rolled onto pavement and they entered the still busy town.

    227

    Jim's eyes stuck out as much as those of the Sawhorse, and he stared at the creature with his ears erect and his long head drawn back until it rested against his arched neck.

    228

    Jonathan wanted to come see him, but she told him to wait until Alex was better.

    229

    Jonny's feet crunched in the snow until he reached the rocky area on the west side of the mountain.

    230

    Jule began shivering, and she turned up the heat until it was too hot for her to stand.

    231

    Just drive more slowly until August.

    232

    Katie waited until he was gone then shook her head, tired of Immortal surprises.

    233

    Keep at it until I send orders otherwise and change locations daily.

    234

    Keep her, until she's normal again, Rhyn growled.

    235

    Keep them alive until I can go through their minds.

    236

    Kiera waited for him to speak, wanting to hide somewhere until she could think straight.

    237

    Kiera was bound to be traumatized until she saw for herself there were no monster-sized spiders on Romas's home planet.

    238

    Kris waited until five Immortals were present in the hall before he retreated to his conference room.

    239

    Kris waited until the door closed.

    240

    Kris waited until the guest bedroom door closed before he motioned to one of the Immortals posted on either end of the hallway.

    241

    Leave it until morning; late morning.

    242

    Len was eyeing Yancey's car and didn't see them until they stepped out the door.

    243

    Let us wait until evening.

    244

    Let's not do any condemning until I've transcribed more pages.

    245

    Lost in his thoughts, he didn't sense the danger until it spoke.

    246

    Maybe she could hold him off until Alex arrived.

    247

    Maybe the rope didn't bust loose until he was part way.

    248

    Maybe the secret could wait until they had built a better foundation.

    249

    More warriors tumbled out after them until the last closed the stone door.

    250

    Much as he disliked making Fred wait, he decided to put off the task until nine o'clock but another phone call forced a change of plans.

    251

    My beautiful bride labored to the end, administrating to the fallen and the flu stricken souls of our town until she too, fell to the scourge of this most dreaded disease.

    252

    My boss was going make me send a form letter back to each of them until she saw how many nuts there were out there.

    253

    My reinforcements aren't here yet; you'll need to keep moving until I can neutralize the newest threat.

    254

    Near hyperventilating, she bent over and drew in deep breaths until moonlight revealed the dismembered hand near her feet.

    255

    Neither spoke for more than an hour, until the ranch and stable were in sight and Dean's watch reminded them of reality.

    256

    Neither spoke until the lights of Montrose glowed through the snow.

    257

    Never gave it a thought until Emma mentioned your opponent was all gussied up in flags and balloons.

    258

    No one answered until Dean finally said, "The bus service stinks."

    259

    No one does or can until I get you back.

    260

    No one wanted to go back to the house until the man was apprehended.

    261

    No stone left unturned until I see the blood of my tipster-nemesis flood the ground beneath her panicked body.

    262

    No. My stuff won't get here until tomorrow afternoon.

    263

    Not until after I graduated.

    264

    Not until I find Ully and test the vial you brought me.

    265

    Not until you talk.

    266

    Now we have to wait until Joseph gets around to leaving and beg a ride down the mountain.

    267

    Now you can wait until morning for the address.

    268

    Of course, if you prefer, we can wait until you come home from work and make it a fun family event.

    269

    One by one, the others left, until he was alone with Andre.

    270

    Only weeks remained until college started.

    271

    Over this Land I ruled in peace for many years, until I grew old and longed to see my native city once again.

    272

    Panic and tears soon drained her of energy, and she stared listlessly at the bloodied ceiling until the man in the corner stirred.

    273

    Panic seized her at the thought of floating through space until her air ran out.

    274

    Panicked, she backpedaled until trapped into the corner of the couch.

    275

    People used to sweep the streets at night until a machine replaced them.

    276

    Pierre dropped them off in front, waiting until they stepped across the entrance before driving off.

    277

    Poverty will be redefined upward until, for all intents and purposes, poverty as we know it today no longer will exist.

    278

    Pulling the rail back up, she stood beside the tent, helplessly watching Destiny cry until she coughed herself into another retching fit.

    279

    Rhyn had never hurt her until then.

    280

    Rhyn joined Kris in the hallway and waited until Katie was out of earshot.

    281

    Rhyn tested the bonds of his cell again until a mage in a brown robe hurried down the hall to repair the damage.

    282

    Rhyn thought nothing of it until Kris opened the door.

    283

    Rocks kicked loose fell in silence until ricocheting and bouncing far below.

    284

    Ryland and the Quincys won't be back until dark.

    285

    Sasha.s guard fell quickly, and Jade hacked at the Ancient with all his fury until Sasha lay in a bloodied heap.

    286

    Schedules were exchanged until a free weekend opened up, after our obligatory trip to Iowa and Betsy's parents.

    287

    Shaking and terrified, Deidre nonetheless held his gaze as she closed the distance between them, until she stood less than a foot away.

    288

    She approached the window, amazed at the snow, until her gaze fell to a figure kneeling like a dark gargoyle in the middle of the white lawn.

    289

    She ate until full, then pushed her plate from the edge of the table.

    290

    She blinked and turned at the voice, not recognizing the American nerd until her vision cleared.

    291

    She continued in that fashion until she was a good fifteen feet off the ground.

    292

    She continued to hold him about the neck until he slowly pried her arm away and pushed himself to a half-sitting position, her leg still tightly locked over him.

    293

    She continued to throw it until it stuck.

    294

    She cried until she could control herself, wiped her face, and drew several shuddering breaths.

    295

    She cried until she was too tired to cry more and drifted into a vision, reliving the few moments she spent with Jilian.

    296

    She cried until too tired to cry more, then leaned against the pod, feeling as if her skin was frying despite the shade.

    297

    She debated returning to her quarters until she could find a more private moment to approach him.

    298

    She did a few more breathing exercises until she felt ready to step outside her room to face the new world.

    299

    She didn.t notice Gabriel in the corner until he spoke.

    300

    She didn't fully register his words until the door closed behind him.

    301

    She didn't know why until she felt the fog of the underworld and then the warmth of wherever it was they went this time.

    302

    She didn't notice how far they'd gone until the blazing bar disappeared around a corner.

    303

    She didn't open her eyes or release her breath until she heard the door close behind him.

    304

    She didn't understand why until they reached the top, overlooking a deep canyon.

    305

    She drank until full.

    306

    She dreaded discovering what it was until he ripped it open to display woodchips.

    307

    She drew closer until he could feel her presence at his back.

    308

    She feared seeing them happy again, knowing she really was nothing more than a disposable stand-in until they were able to be together again.

    309

    She fed, ensnared by his scent, until she was soothed then tucked her head in the crook between his neck and shoulder.

    310

    She felt the urge to retreat to her room and stay there until he left again.

    311

    She followed her nose until she found the one she wanted.

    312

    She followed him, praying he knew the town better than her, until they ran into a dead end.

    313

    She found herself ascending the servants. stairwell at a run, in case the Ully-demon was still stalking her, until she reached her floor, which appeared blessedly free of any signs of battle and death.

    314

    She gazed up at him with angry eyes, and he stepped forward until her lush little body was pinned by his to the wall.

    315

    She grabbed Traci's hand, and she picked her way through the death until she found the vamp she sought.

    316

    She hadn't felt like she belonged in this world until she'd seen what good she could do.

    317

    She hadn't noticed how rundown A'Ran's home in exile was until she saw the house of the Qatwali refugees.

    318

    She hadn't realized what she felt for him until it was too late to tell him.

    319

    She hung in indecision for a long moment until she recalled that being in his arms was the only place she ever found peace.

    320

    She ignored him, until it was clear he wasn't going anywhere.

    321

    She ignored the door opening until someone spoke to her.

    322

    She lay down on her back to watch the sun set and didn't move until he returned early the next morning to toss stinky fish beside her.

    323

    She leaned forward until she was resting against the demon, who didn't move away.

    324

    She left the door cracked until she heard Jake greet Damian as the leader passed her room.

    325

    She let the bodies pressed against her shove her into the chilled night and blinked back her blurred gaze until she saw her German friends.

    326

    She looked around until her eyes met those of the death dealer.

    327

    She made no effort to move away from him, but he pushed her slightly forward until she stumbled, and caught a branch as she let out a muffled scream.

    328

    She met his gaze with a nod, and they looked at each other until her face flushed.

    329

    She neared him as she spoke until she was toe-to-toe with the massive man and glaring up at him.

    330

    She needed to run away, far away, until this nightmare was over.

    331

    She never realized how easily he read those around him until he was throwing her thoughts into her face.

    332

    She opened them until she found one and placed the bag in the cup.

    333

    She paused on the sagging porch until he beckoned her in.

    334

    She planted her hand on the red ground and counted to ten, until she felt the tickle of blades of grass beneath her hand.

    335

    She protested until the cops came and took them both to a police station.

    336

    She pushed herself down in her seat until her head rested on the back of the chair.

    337

    She ran until the cold air burned her lungs and the people were far behind her.

    338

    She read the names of everything, until she found the eggs.

    339

    She read, paced, and finally just lay down to stare at the ceiling until morning came.

    340

    She recalled with bitterness how he'd plied her with potion, falsely igniting her deep seeded passions until there was no turning back from his rampant lust.

    341

    She roamed the bottom floor until she reached the door off one of the kitchens.

    342

    She sat in one of the chairs and slid down in it until her head rested against the back.

    343

    She scrambled up, watching them wrestle Dean until he shook them off.

    344

    She screamed until she was hoarse, shaking in the chilled air.

    345

    She set the knife down on the edge and circled the fountain again until she'd reviewed all three of the pictographs where the female figure held a dagger.

    346

    She shoved the machine again until the space was wide enough for him to squeeze through.

    347

    She sidestepped him and retreated until the balcony railing trapped her.

    348

    She slowed until she smelled the scents of dinner.

    349

    She snatched the lighter on the mantle and ran to the door, standing close until the alcohol lit and spread.

    350

    She stared at him dumbly until the crowd forced her toward the exit.

    351

    She stared up at him until he glanced down at her.

    352

    She stayed until she broke a healthy sweat.

    353

    She stepped through masses of flesh and body parts, holding her mouth, until she

    354

    She stood spread-eagle until it shrank to fit her, shuddered at the creepy sensation of life-like silk caressing her skin, and hurried out of the bathroom.

    355

    She stopped a few feet from the entrance, debating whether she should just leave, until she heard A'Ran's name.

    356

    She stumbled through the deep sand until her calves ached and her breathing was hard.

    357

    She thought the man before her old because of his silver until her vision cleared and she saw his face.

    358

    She trailed, groping around the wall nearest the door until she found a light switch.

    359

    She tried to pull away, but he pressed her harder against the wall until she could barely breathe.

    360

    She turned a few more pages, until he rested a hand on hers to keep her from turning.

    361

    She waited at the top of the sloping walkway until she saw the outline of a door as he cracked it open.

    362

    She waited in the cold winter day until the familiar Lincoln Town Car arrived.

    363

    She waited until he continued.

    364

    She waited until Moira's footsteps faded before dialing her father.

    365

    She waited until she reached a quieter side street before dialing her boyfriend.

    366

    She waited until the door closed before crossing to the carafe and refilling her glass.

    367

    She waited until the vamps were gone before going to the gym, not wanting to tempt any of them to attack her while she was half-naked and distracted.

    368

    She waited until they stopped and the full light of day streamed into her room before heading to the kitchen.

    369

    She walked in a circle until she found the strongest of the energy patterns in the vicinity and paused above it.

    370

    She wandered until she found an exit and stepped into a beautiful midmorning.

    371

    She wanted to curl up in a ball and sob until she fell asleep, relieved and ecstatic to be with him again.

    372

    She wanted to curl up in the pod and sob until he rescued her, even knowing he'd never know where to find her.

    373

    She was lost in a haze of heat and dark spices, of his hot kisses and solid strength, until his touch left her.

    374

    She was supposed to attract Gabriel, until I was brought back, and then she was to be turned over to Darkyn as his mate.

    375

    She was the one who had insisted on waiting until they were married.

    376

    She was unaware of where she went until a death dealer faded from the surrounding forest.

    377

    She was untraceable in the shadow world, until she emerged somewhere else.

    378

    She wasn't the kind who sat around waiting to die, not when she wanted so badly to enjoy every day until she was no longer able to.

    379

    She watched him until he disappeared, then freed the fish.

    380

    She watched in fascination, not understanding what it was until a floor several below hers exploded into flying stone and fire.

    381

    She went there for two summers, until she began turning everything she touched into something else, and her father was forced to pull her out of school at the age of twelve.

    382

    She went to the battle game to play until A'Ran called, wondering what he'd say when she told him her news about his sisters and wondering just how safe it would be to talk about Ne'Rin's conversation with his father.

    383

    She will not be open to you until this is cleared up.

    384

    She'd been freaked out by the in-between place and wanted him to wait until they reached their destination before he had a chance to panic.

    385

    She'd dared to hope again that everything was a hallucination brought on by too much alcohol, until Toby burst in chasing a cat she didn't remember owning.

    386

    She'd never had an opinion of bunk beds until this moment.

    387

    She'd stepped near him in her dream, until he swiped at her, and she tried to free a scream from her frozen body.

    388

    She'd thought him cold and distant at first, until she learned his background.

    389

    She'd thought that the worst night of her life until now.

    390

    Shipton may be sleaze of the year, but until he does something illegal, there isn't anything the law can do.

    391

    Silence followed until Randy said, "Hello?"

    392

    Slowly her gaze lifted to lips, which were curved in a pleased smile that enlarged until it activated the dimple below his eye.

    393

    So now he's suggesting I chased Billy down the mountain until he went over the side!

    394

    So, if Lon said something stupid to you, you could toss him into the air and leave him there until he agreed to treat you with an ounce of respect.

    395

    So, she hovered in the quiet darkness for a while, until the sounds of the outside world were too loud for her to ignore.

    396

    Sofia exclaimed and balled up her free hand into a fist until her nails bit into flesh.

    397

    Sofia followed him as the halls angled up and narrowed until Two had to walk through them sideways.

    398

    Some people never knew what they had until they lost it.

    399

    Sparring lasted until the sky was clear of night's blue, at which point he took the sword from her.

    400

    Startled, she froze, watching the giant warriors fight until Leyon wrenched her forward.

    401

    Still he stared until her face grew warm again.

    402

    Still others torched the wooden chairs until a fire blazed in the back of the hall.

    403

    Take off the rose colored glasses—'my sins will continue'—or better yet, wait until you decipher a few more pages and she gives it to you in black and white, chapter and verse and supplies the sinful details.

    404

    Talon hauled her along until he, too, was worn out and she dropped behind both.

    405

    Tamer was still for a long moment, until Kiki shoved a foot beneath his belly and rolled him over.

    406

    That type of heartache is rough, but I came to peace with it and was pretty happy with my expulsion, until a few days ago.

    407

    That's not until later.

    408

    That's right, but not until Sunday.

    409

    The back of his skull buzzed harder until he wondered if his scalp was about to spin off and fly away.

    410

    The cell repaired itself until it stood straight again.

    411

    The demon was too surprised to react, and Jade hacked him down until the black walls were sprayed with demon blood.

    412

    The driver had driven in circles and down every back alley he could find until Jule was confident there was no one tailing them.

    413

    The fingers around her mouth and neck maneuvered her head to the side until her ear was near her shoulder to expose the delicate area before both fell away.

    414

    The guy I spoke to said he beat the ever-living shit out of them all at once, until they agreed to come back and do what Kris says.

    415

    The healer's soft hands took away her headache, then the throbbing in her neck, and worked on the other parts of her body until she felt whole again.

    416

    The Immortal on the other side of his door was too excited to wait until he entered to shout the news.

    417

    The lights were on, but shadows crawled from the corners and choked the lights until they were shriveled, glowing orbs.

    418

    The Lucky Pup has apparently been sealed up for the last forty years until someone—kids, we think—broke into the mine this spring.

    419

    The messengers went on until they came at last to the island of Rhodes.

    420

    The moon can hold us, but we'll need food and supplies until the space battle is over.

    421

    The ocean was hidden beneath the fog and the air chilled, so she walked fast until she warmed up.

    422

    The pain increased until Jule was near passing out.

    423

    The questions plagued her until one evening when the black car returned.

    424

    The real celebration of Fred's release from jail didn't begin until the pair returned to Bird Song where Cynthia had baked a fresh apple pie, complete with vanilla ice cream, tagged on to the end of a healthy lunch.

    425

    The rest he had built in investments – other than what was in the special savings account drawing interest until he could decide whether to return it or accept the responsibility that went with it.

    426

    The seat was at his left, and he waited until she accepted before sitting.

    427

    The shout went unnoticed until the panicked bartender grabbed the mike of the lead rocker.

    428

    The sight of such normalcy calmed her, until someone brushed against her.

    429

    The small car fishtailed around a curve, but she kept up the pace until she no longer saw the man in her rearview mirror.

    430

    The train lurched forward, the gentle hum of electricity soon pushing her into a near-doze, until the train lurched to a halt.

    431

    The two fanged figures battled until one lifted the other and cracked its back over its knee.

    432

    The two had shared Dean's bachelorhood for fifteen years until Dean, an ex-Pennsylvania police detective married Cynthia Byrne seven months earlier.

    433

    The two were sharing a room and the escape was not discovered until the following morning.

    434

    The winter had been exceptionally clear of late snow and the high mountain passes that in many years remained closed until July had been cleared weeks earlier this spring.

    435

    The women would remain until the war was over and he could take them to their rightful home.

    436

    The woodman stirred the fire until the flames leaped high and the sparks flew out of the roof hole.

    437

    The words echoed in her head, and she walked blindly for several moments, until the cold burning her lungs made her stop.

    438

    The WWW news was either negative or tardy because each took turns bickering at the other until Dean was ready to toss the entire family.

    439

    Their voices warbled, until he set her down.

    440

    There had to be somewhere she could go where they.d leave her alone, at least until Gabriel came for her.

    441

    There is a spring in my step and a note on my lips, until I realize the awful truth of my situation and am forced to hold back my tears.

    442

    They battled with great vigor and exaggeration to the cheering of the three younger boys until one turned and noticed her.

    443

    They began the arduous climb, puffing in the high elevation for ten minutes until the trail leveled and opened to their left.

    444

    They gazed at each other until she felt red creep up her neck.

    445

    They had looked so peaceful, so comfortable, and she never understood the appeal until this moment.

    446

    They remained in the foyer, uneasy with the amount of activity and weapons, until approached.

    447

    They retraced their steps until they reached another fork in the tunnel.

    448

    They sat in silence throughout the afternoon, until the sun sank far enough out of the sky to perch on the ocean.

    449

    They say that Arion, being a good swimmer, kept himself afloat until this ship happened to pass by and rescued him from the waves.

    450

    They sparred lightly until her body grew warm and her mind engaged.

    451

    They sparred until she grew tired and lowered her weapon.

    452

    They'd sat for hours, until human-Deidre's distress faded and turned first to disbelief then hope then resolve.

    453

    Though I could always wait until tomorrow, after Darkyn deals with you.

    454

    Thus they circle until they fall upon the recent trail of a fox, for a wise hound will forsake everything else for this.

    455

    Troubled, Gabriel didn't move until she was gone from sight.

    456

    Truth be known, he felt a small measure of relief, at least until he opened the mail to a flurry of bills.

    457

    Unnerved by the strange man, Deidre backed away until she bumped into the wall.

    458

    Until he does something to warrant police action, I'd say he has every right to stay.

    459

    Until he knew exactly what had happened in Lydia's apartment and the details of Fitzgerald's departure anything was possible.

    460

    Until he offers you something you want.

    461

    Until he saw the one of her kissing someone.

    462

    Until I was ten years old, my family lived in rural east Texas.

    463

    Until now, the Council has obstructed his efforts, but that is no longer true.

    464

    Until she saw the blood on the walls and ceiling, she thought it was a surgical room.

    465

    Until she was of age, Josh's sister, Alice, and her husband would live on the farm and maintain it.

    466

    Until that moment, she hadn't realized how much she missed passing away her nights playing her games!

    467

    Until that moment, she thought him there to visit.

    468

    Until that was done, the back 80 and its proximity were off limits to all of them.

    469

    Until the attack was defended and defeated, Christmas mornings, autumn leaves, spring flowers and summer picnics were no more than passing dreams.

    470

    Until the stinging stopped.

    471

    Until then I had been like a foreigner speaking through an interpreter.

    472

    Until very recently, our world was ruled by kings.

    473

    Until we talk to these people, we won't know who was off on his own enough to have an opportunity and who has an alibi.

    474

    Until you get to here.

    475

    Until you pushed me away the final time.

    476

    Until you took an innocent human and condemned her to near-death for your selfishness.

    477

    Until you took my soul a few months ago, I was there because I loved you and for no other reason.

    478

    Up until now, we have thought of the Internet as a place to store information, and we have depended upon search engines to help us find it.

    479

    Valentine Day isn't until next month.

    480
