Two years after being swept into a marriage she did not want, Irene gets used to living with her husband, Victor Taneev, who admires her. However, it is universally known that if a person doesn't house a feeling as love in their heart, then they seek to find it.
General Isakov every day has to come home to his wife, Ekaterina and a son named Alexander. Married to a Noble Maiden from the Smolny Institute six years ago, he himself cannot figure out what he feels towards his wife: love or indifference?
In 1894, the two meet, and both get swallowed up by a strong feeling, but both realise how dangerous the situation is.
A story about what it takes to find- and obtain- one's true love on the background of war and the most beautiful epoch, where the society's opinion was to be obeyed.

Anamika #Book II
The sky here looks lonely. No star twinkles back at me even on the murkiest nights. Where are you my Moon? Why don't I see you? Come, fill my world again with your glow. Come, shine down your brilliance on me once more. Say something. Talk to me. If not then at least look at me... Spare me a single glance... ...breathe life into me. ~~~~~~~~ Her jaded eyes brimmed with life when they fell upon his lone figure, looking back at her with the same intensity, eyes staring directly into her soul. She fervently wished he wasn't a figment of her vivid imagination. Because if he were, she wouldn't be able to trust herself anymore. Her breath hitched seeing him taking slow, deliberate steps in her direction, making her heart thump madly against her bosom. And soon a familiar name rolled down her tongue... "Eklavya..." ~~~~~~~~ Note: This is part two of EklavyaxAnamika Universe. It cannot be read as a standalone.
