"Princes don't exist," Astrid Duarte said harshly.
"And why do you think so?" asked Azriel Starling.

"The people that could be princes," she said carrying on the metaphor, "were the only ones I told of my pain."
A frown creased Azriel's brow. "But I'm the only one you told of your misery."
"Exactly."
