Rulings
If either target becomes illegal after Bond of Passion is cast but before it resolves, the other is still affected as appropriate.
In some rare cases, gaining control of the target creature may cause the second target to become illegal. As long as the second target is a legal target as Bond of Passion begins to resolve (before the target creature changes control) it will attempt to deal damage to the second target.
