    “I love you, Roza." He kissed me again. "I'll always be here for you. I'm not going to let anything happen to you."
    The words were wonderful and dangerous. He shouldn't have said anything like that to me. He shouldn't have been promising he'd protect me, not when he was supposed to dedicate his life to protecting Moroi like Lissa. I couldn't be first in his heart, just like he couldn't be first in mine. That was why I shouldn't have said what I said next-but I did anyway.
    "And I won't let anything happen to you," I promised. "I love you." He kissed me again, swallowing off any other words I might have added.”
    Richelle Mead, Shadow Kiss

    “Dimitri's voice snapped my attention back to him. "That's Adrian Ivashkov." He said the name the same way everyone else did.
    "Yeah, I know."
    "This is the second time I've seen you with him."
    "Yeah," I replied glibly. "We hang out sometimes."
    Dimitri arched an eyebrow, then jerked his head back toward where we'd come from. "You hang out in his room a lot?"
    Several retorts popped into my head, and then a golden one took precedence. "What happens between him and me is none of your business." I managed a tone very similar to the one he'd used on me when making a similar comment about him and Tasha.
    "Actually, as long as you're at the Academy, what you do is my business."
    "Not my personal life. You don't have any say in that.”
    Richelle Mead, Frostbite

    “You act young," he said, "because you are young. But you know things, Roza. Things people older than you don't even know. That day...." I knew instantly which day he referred to. The one up against the wall. "You were right, about how I fight to stay in control. No one else has ever figured that out- and it scared me. You scare me."
    "Why? Don't you want anyone to know?"
    He shrugged. "Whether they know that fact or not doesn't matter. What matters is that someone- that you- know me that well. When a person can see into your soul, it's hard. It forces you to be open. Vulnerable. It's much easier being with someone who's just more of a casual friend."
    "Like Tasha."
    "Tasha Ozera is an amazing woman. She's beautiful and she's brave. But she doesn't-"
    "She doesn't get you," I finished.
    He nodded. "I knew that. But I still wanted the relationship. I knew it would be easy and that she could take me away from you. I thought she could make me forget you."
    I'd thought the same thing about Mason. "But she couldn't."
    "Yes. And, so.....that's a problem.”

    “She was right about something else too," Dimitri said after a long pause.... "That I do still love you.”

    “I was so distracted when walking out of the restroom that I hadn't noticed Rose standing nearby with Dimitri Belikov. They stood arm in arm, smiling at my surprise. I hadn't seen Dimitri tonight, and his black and white guardian attire told me why. He was on duty here and had undoubtedly been one of the shadows darting among the trees of the greenhouse, keeping a watch on everyone. He must be on break now because there was no way he'd be standing so casually here, even with Rose, otherwise. And really, "casual" for Dimitri meant he could still leap into battle at any moment.

    They were a striking couple. His dark-haired, dark-eyed looks matched hers, and they were both dazzlingly attractive. It was no wonder Adrian had fallen for her, and I felt surprised at how uncomfortable that memory made me. Like Sonya and Mikhail, there was a bond of love between Rose and Dimitri and Rose that was almost palpable.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    “Dimitri held up a car seat with one hand, which was almost comical. “We can go whenever you’re ready. Lana gave us this and swears it’s easy to install.”
    Rose laughed at that. “Oh, this I’ve got to see, comrade. Dimitri Belikov, badass god, installing a baby’s car seat.”
    Richelle Mead, The Ruby Circle

    “To my surprise, I recognized Dimitri Belikov-Rose's boyfriend-among those doing crowd control. He was easy to spot since he was almost always taller than everyone around him. Dhampirs look very human, and even I could admit that he was pretty good-looking. There was a rugged handsomeness to him, and even in a still photograph, I could see a fierceness as he watched the crowd.”
    Richelle Mead, Bloodlines

    “Sydney had to call Jackie back, and since my hands were full, she handed Declan off to Rose. “Just rock him,” I said, seeing her panic.
    Rose blanched but complied, earning laughter in return from Dimitri. “Rose Hathaway, notorious rebel, showing her maternal side.”
    She stuck her tongue out at him. “Enjoy it while you can, comrade. This is as close as you’ll ever get to it.”
    Richelle Mead, The Ruby Circle

    “I looked at you...saw your goodness, your hope, and your faith. Those are what make you beautiful. So, so beautiful.”

    “We sat like that for a long time, until a discrete knock at the half-open door broke us apart. Lissa stood in the doorway.
    "Sorry," she said, her face shining with joy when she saw me. "Should have put a sock on the door. Didn't realize that things were getting hot and heavy."
    "No avoiding it," I said lightly, clasping Dimitri's hand. "Things are always hot with him around."
    Dimitri looked scandalized. He'd never held back when we were in bed together, but his private nature wouldn't let him even hint about such matters and others. It was mean, but I laughed and kissed his cheek.
    "Oh, this is going to be fun," I said. "Now that everything's out in the open."
    "Yeah," he said. "I got a pretty 'fun' look from your father the other day.”
    Richelle Mead, Last Sacrifice

    “Ah, Belikov," said Abe, shaking Dimitri's hand. "I'd been hoping we'd run into each other. I'd really like to get to know you better. Maybe we can set aside some time to talk, learn more about life, love, et cetera. Do you like to hunt? You seem like a hunting man. That's what we should do sometime. I know a great spot in the woods. Far, far away. We could make a day of it. I've certainly got a lot of question to ask you. A lot of things I'd like to tell you."
    I shot a panicked look at my mother, silently begging her to stop this. Abe had spent a good deal of time talking to Adrian when we dated, explaining in vivid and gruesome detail exactly how Abe expected his daughter to be treated. I did not want Abe taking Dimitri off alone into the wilderness, especially if firearms were involved.
    "Actually," said my mum casually."I'd like to come along. I also have a number of questions-especially about when you two were back at St. Vladimir's."
    "Don't you guys have somewhere to be?" I asked hastily. "We're about to start."
    That, at least, was true. Nearly everyone was in formation, and the crowd was quieting. "of course," said Abe. To my astonishment, he brushed a kiss over my forehead before stepping away. "I'm glad you're back." Then, with a wink, he said to Dimitri:"Looking forward to our chat."
    "Run," I said when they were gone. "If you slip out now, maybe they won't notice. Go back to Siberia.”

    “She was right about something else too,ʺ Dimitri said after a long pause. My back was to him, but there was a strange quality to his voice that made me turn around.
    ʺWhatʹs that?ʺ I asked.
    ʺThat I do still love you.ʺ With that one sentence, everything in the universe changed. Time slowed to one heartbeat. The world became his eyes, his voice. This wasnʹt happening. It wasnʹt real. None of it could be real. It felt like a spirit dream. I resisted the urge to close my eyes and see if Iʹd wake up moments later. No. No matter how unbelievable it all seemed, this was no dream. This was real. This was life. This was flesh and blood.
    ʺSince . . . since when?ʺ I finally managed to ask.
    ʺSince . . . forever.ʺ His tone implied the answer was obvious. ʺI denied it when I was restored. I had no room for anything in my heart except guilt. I especially felt guilty about you—what Iʹd done—and I pushed you away. I put up a wall to keep you safe. It worked for a while—until my heart finally started accepting other emotions. And it all came back. Everything I felt for you. It had never left; it was just hidden from me until I was ready. And again . . . that alley was the turning point. I looked at you . . . saw your goodness, your hope, and your faith. Those are what make you beautiful. So, so beautiful.”

    “His fingers never ceased to amaze me. They could break a man's neck, bandage a wound, and slide sensually across bare skin.”

    “We're the same! Even Sonya says we are.
    We've always been the same, and we're
    both acting the same stupid way now! We
    hold ourselves to higher standards than
    everyone else.”
    Richelle Mead, Last Sacrifice

    “I eyed Dimitri, recalling a shadow in my periphery back in the ballroom. "You followed when I jumped in front of Lissa, didn't you? Who were you going for? Me or her?"
    He studied me for several long seconds. He could have lied. He could have given the easy answer by saying he'd intended to push both of us out of the way-if that was even possible, which I didn't recall. But Dimitri didn't lie. "I don't know, Roza. I don't know.”
    Richelle Mead, Last Sacrifice

    “Unacceptable," said Dimitri. He used to be a combat instructor, and I could understand why. "She's here on a mission. What she did was reckless and irresponsible."
    Sonya gave him a sly smile. "And here I thought you had a soft spot for reckless girls."
    "Rose never would have done anything like that," he countered. He paused to reconsider, and I could've sworn there was a hint of a smile there. "Well, at least not in such a public setting.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

    “I haven’t even really tried to win you over, Roza. When I want to, I can be very persuasive.”

    “Dimitri: "She might be wild and disrespectful, but if she has potential—"
    Rose: "Wild and disrespecful? Who the hell are you anyway? Oursourced help?"
    Kirova: "Guardian Belikov is the Princess Lissa's guardian now, her sanctioned guardian."
    Rose: "You got cheap foreign labor to protect Lissa?”

    “Hey Mason, wipe the drool off your face. If you're going to think about me naked, do it on your own time." [...]
    "This is my time, Hathaway. I'm leading today's session."
    "Oh yeah?" I retorted. "Huh. Well, I guess this is a good time to think about me naked, then."
    "It's always a good a time to think about you naked," added someone nearby, breaking the tension further.”
