When you saw me with a dagger in hand - as if to throw at you

When you saw me with a dagger in hand - as if to throw at you - you didn't call for your guards. You didn't fear I was here to kill you. You looked over your shoulder to see what I was aiming at. That's the most loving gesture I think a man could receive from a woman. Unless you'd like to sit on my knee for a while. ✨ Robert Jordan, Brandon Sanderson (2013).
