See your daughter standing there.
By dark of moon and light of sun,
As I will it, let it be done.

Flesh and sinew, blood and bone
Cassie now becomes our own.”

The Captive
“Well, the coven leaders who represent the goddess Diana and the horned god have to make an alliance. They have to . . .” Faye paused delicately “. . . merge, shall we say? To represent the union of male and female principles.”

“It isn’t nice to fool around with guys who’re taken.” Cassie whispered tiredly, as if explaining to a five-year-old.
Faye chuckled “Nice? Is that what you want on your epitaph? ‘Here lies Cassie. She was . . . nice’?” (p. 59)
