Dorian Quote by Sarah J. Maas
““He suddenly felt the urge to kiss her-hard- upon the mouth. But this- what he felt, it could never be real. Because once the ball was over, she would go back to being an assassin, and he would still be a prince. Dorian swallowed hard. For tonight, though... He held her closer. Everyone transformed into mere shadows on the wall.””
