    If either target becomes illegal after Bond of Passion is cast but before it resolves, the other is still affected as appropriate.

  • WotCMay 3, 2019

    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.
