Closing her senses to the outside world, she reached into her well of power and drew out a bucketful and threw it out in a circle around her as she called to the essence that was Molly.

Relationships:

With Tom:
was willing to blackmail her to get her to help him find his brotherSe-
she's not afraid of him; Tom scared everyone—and he had even before their pack had a run-in with a bunch of fae a few years agoSe-
He stalked her, and all she’d felt was a flash of sexual awareness that came and went so swiftly, he might have missed it if he’d been youngerSe-
she tucked her arm in his, but he didn’t object. At least he didn’t jump away from her and say “ick,” like the last person who’d seen what she’d done to herselfSe-
guided her as if he’d done it before, unobtrusively but clearly, as if they were waltzing instead of walking down the streetSe-
She’d taken something from him by using him that way . . . broken the trust he’d felt building between them. He needed to reestablish what he could expect out of herSe-
I’m not bringing you to his lair so he can dine upon werewolf, too. I am here because some jerk made me feel sorry for him. I am here because I want both him and his brother out of my hair and safely out of the hands of my rat-bastard father so I won’t have their deaths on my conscience, tooSe-
he's her Seeing Eye wolfSe-
Which means when I touch you, I can see magic through your eyes . . . with practice, I might even be able just to see. It means that you can feed my magic with your skinSe-
he's acting like her familiar; if she had a familiarSe-
Disoriented and vulnerable, she was afraid of him for the first timeSe-
intending to spread her own defenses to the wolf; odd effect on her magic; allows her to seeSe-
she likes to flirt with her mateHG-
Tom was always in the right place to put his arm out to guide her and murmur low-voiced warnings as they dodged around other shoppers and across the uneven floorHG-
Moira should keep him calm enough that he’s safe to be around; changing and injuredHG-
she's been around Tom when he changed beforeHG-
if he yells at me; If it gets to you, just shed a few tears,” muttered Tom. “He’ll shut up. Works for MoiraHG-

With Her Family:
her mom is the only one who called her WendySe-14
Molly is afraid of herSe-
her father thinks she's judgmentalSe-
her father tried to kill her; she didn’t feel too bad when she tied Molly’s essence, through the gum she still held, into her shield.
When the coven’s magic hit the shield, it was Molly who took the damage. Who diedSe-
He’d used all his magic to power his spell—he’d left himself defenseless. And now he was afraid of herSe-
Because he was too worried about me being ‘overwhelmed’ himself”—she nudged Tom with her shoulder—“by all the überwolves. Not being handicapped by overprotective, studly impulsesHG-

With Anna:
she and Tom took Anna out shopping in downtown SeattleHG-
Moira took Anna to her favorite shoe placeHG-
thought that Moira might have some insights for Samuel. I thought it only fair to call and warn her that I’ve sent him after her; regarding Anna having childrenDH-

With Charles:
wraparound sunglasses she wore made her expression difficult to read, but his nose told him that meeting the Marrok’s hatchet man wasn’t scaring her. Unusual, but then she couldn’t see him eitherHG-
I don’t know Moira,” said Charles to the wolf who was Tom, since
he understood his reaction the best. “I did know that I’ve never heard
of a white witch who could do what she did. And if a black witch is
masquerading as a white witch . . . first, the deception implies she is
one of the enemy. And second”—he gave the wolf a small smile—
“I’ve never encountered a witch who could hide her nature from me.”HG-
Moira thinks Charles is being rudeHG-
helped delay the death curse that Dana placed on CharlesHG-
she's never run across magic like his beforeHG-

With The Wolves:
Alan Choo gave me your address, said you were the only one he knew with enough moxie to defy themSe-
knows of the Marrok; He-Who-Ruled-the-Wolves, began Changing people with more care than had been the usual custom; Surviving the Change—even with the safeguards the Marrok could manage—was still, she understood, nowhere near a certaintySe-
Alan was right: she needed to get out more; dateSe-
thinks Arthur is a stuck-up BritHG-
Moira went with Bran and Tom to make sure Amethyst was free of the fae's magic and remove the demon possessing IrisDH-

With The Witches:
Samhain’s master had approached Moira about joining them when she was thirteenSe-
She’d refused and made her refusal stick at some cost to all the parties involvedSe-
thinks Kouros is arrogant and crazySe-
He likes money, and there is at least one herbalist among his followers who could manufacture some really odd stuffSe-
Kouros did the other one first. That’s why I’m willing to take them on. I’ve done it before and survived—and I still owe them a fewSe-
If they found her, it would unnerve them. They knew she worked aloneSe-
Tom and Moira were nearly killed by a black witch a few weeks ago
them, though he could tell she was still miffed with him. “It’s left us a
little skittishHG-
Carnwennen was King Arthur’s dagger. Little White Hilt, it means.
Arthur used it to hunt the Very Black Witch; He supposedly cut the witch in half with itHG-
