Eren's POV


Now, I'm dealing with him. A man I've never met. His eyes are white— as cold as snow. Likewise with the hair. His white lips keeps on saying words I can hardly understand. He is very tall. Really tall. When compared to him, my height is only half of him. With such an unreasonable height, it will be very easy to intimidate anyone who sees him. However, not with me. I don't know why I don't flinch at all. My gaze can't move from him. Likewise from her.

The woman.

She is inside a chunk of ice that is three times the size of her body; wearing a wedding dress. She falls asleep. She falls so deep. Her skin is pale like a princess in a fairy tale.

"She looks very weak."

My heart is beating very fast. My face is red flash. Right now, it's very easy to get out of control and get lost in emotion. However, not this time. Not a second time. She needs me.

The sky still looks dark. Pale blue to be precise. I'm in a sitting position. Holding the sleepiness on the edge of the bed with a thundering heartbeat. As expected, it wasn't the ringing of the alarm that managed to wake me up. Nor is the sound of a neighbor's rooster crowing.

That dream again.

Right. These days my dreams are always the same. It's always the man with the white eyes and the woman in the chunk of ice. The background is always the same too. Dark as a moonless night. There is no light. There is no bright. It's just the three of us. Me, the stranger and the bride.

Fuck! It's just a dream!

I immediately leave the bedroom and take a towel in the drying. Leaving a room messy condition; Bed that are no longer wrapped in sheets; Window that never closes tightly; Cell phones that are no longer intact.

This is the third time.
