"When your nemesis happens to be your husband, happily ever afters are a lot more complicated than you might assume."
Ilyana Alara Aziz has the perfect husband: Ilyaz Zaviyar Ali holds doors for her, remembers her restaurant orders, buys her gajras...
The silver strokes in his eyes reminds her of moonlight again, like tides glossed under it's pale shine. The memory of it is distant, and she cannot remember how long it even has been since he gazed at her this way.
Ilyana brought out the worst in him. She realised it even more whenever lightening shone instead, and the infernal, impatient glance he always had in her way nearly frightened her at times. Ilyaz looked different now, as if almost tender or even— hopeful. She blinks, and the guilt pressed under ricochets.
"Dreams. Why?"
He gives her a crooked smile, looking away from her and towards the sky. Dimples, she notices, and there is an inexplainable urge in her to touch his face, revolting against her resolve around him. His dark curls fall over his eyes, where there is a strange longing to roam in his gaze again where she is someone but herself. She loses herself in that moment, no more twice shy, and her resolutions of this world and distain for love trembles until they've faded and the moment with him are all that remains.
"I do not love you yet, neither do you. But I will bring all your dreams come true, and you can fall in love with me again. Just, remember us again,"
