Elijah carries a stack of wood to his home when he hears someone calling for him.

"Elijah!" Tatia shouted for him as Elijah stops and turns around seeing her. She rans up towards him with a smile on her face.

"What can I do for you, Tatia?" Elijah asks and Tatia shyly looks down at her fingers before looking up at him.

"I just wanted to tell you that I am infatuated with you, Elijah. I want to be with you." She confessed as Elijah looks at her with shock and everyone in the village did so too. Elijah looks up from behind her to see Anastasia standing there with a sad look on her face before he looks back down at her.

"Tatia, I am deeply honored on hearing that." He says and Tatia's face lit up, but Elijah continues.

"But I do not feel the same way as you. I am infatuated with someone else." He tells her truthfully and Tatia looks at him with hurt.

"Who?" She asks and Elijah's eyes went up again as Tatia looks behind her and everyone look to where Elijah was looking only to see Anastasia.

"Anastasia. She is the one that I am infatuated with." He says and Tatia looks at him before nodding her head.

"I-I see." She says and moves away as Anastasia got pulled by Henrik.

"Come on, Ana!" He says excitedly as he pulls her to Elijah. They both stopped in front of him and Henrik takes the stack of wood from Elijah.

"I'll take these back home." He says smiling before leaving the two be. Elijah smiles appreciatively towards his little brother before taking Anastasia's hand and pulling her away from the village. She let out a soft giggle as everyone in the village smile happily before going back to work.

They soon stopped once they were far enough. Elijah looks at Anastasia with a smile on his face as he gently caress her cheek and she leans in.

"I love you." He tells her and she smiles brightly.

"As I love you more."

———— Present Day

Elijah woke up and found his wife looking out the window wearing one of his shirt. She turns to look at him and smiled brightly and Elijah couldn't help, but look at her with awe. The light from the outside casted behind her like she was an angel brought down for him.

Anastasia walks up towards her husband and crawled up towards him with a smile on her face.

"Hello, my love. Did you have a nice dream?" She asks and Elijah hums as he sits up kissing her softly which she did the same.

"I wouldn't say it was nice on some parts of it." He sighs and Anastasia knew what he meant.

"You saved me and I am truly grateful for that, my love." Anastasia tells him as he only sigh looking into her eyes.
