    Marissa Meyer
    “Catherine," said the Marquess, placing one hand on Cath’s shoulder and one on his wife’s. "We know you’ve been through some . . . difficult things recently."

    "How different everything could have been," she said, "if you had thought to ask me that before."

    She shrugged his arm away and pushed between them. She didn’t look back.”
    Marissa Meyer, Heartless
