“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?”

“So I suggested to Dimitri that maybe he should let me off this time. He laughed, and I was pretty sure it was at me and not with me.

Rose Hathaway: "Why is that funny?”
Dimitri Belikov: "Oh, You were serious.”
Rose Hathaway: "Of course I was! Look, I've technically been awake for two days. Why do we have to start this training now? Let me go to bed, It's just one hour.”
Dimitri Belikov: "How do you feel right now? After the training you've done so far?”
Rose Hathaway: "I hurt like hell.”
Dimitri Belikov: "You'll feel worse tomorrow.”
Rose Hathaway: "So?”
Dimitri Belikov: "So, better to jump in now while you still feel…not as bad.”
Rose Hathaway: "What kind of logic is that?”

“Whoa, Dimitri," I said, tossing my bag on the floor. "I realize this is actually a current hit in Eastern Europe right now, but do you think we could maybe listen to something that wasn't recorded before I was born?”
Only his eyes flicked toward me; the rest of his posture remained the same. "What does it matter to you? I'm the one who's going to be listening to it. You'll be outside running.”
