“Huh?” Ethan mumbled, his voice tinged with disbelief as his gaze remained fixed on Lily. “Am I dreaming? Because if I am, I don’t want to wake up…” 

Lily’s laughter rang softly through the room, her eyes shining with warmth. Shaking her head, she replied with a tender smile, “No, Ethan. This isn’t a dream. I’m here, and I’m real–your wife, your Lily.” 

Her words seemed to break through his trance, and his eyes widened with realization. Without another thought, he wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close. Cradling her face in his hands, he leaned in and kissed her with an intensity that left her breathless. 

His lips captured hers in a way that spoke of love, devotion, and longing. Each kiss deepened as he poured his emotions into the connection, making her feel cherished and desired. Their tongues entwined in a passionate rhythm, and their hands instinctively explored one another, drawn by the unspoken bond between them. 

Lily felt herself melting into his embrace, her heart racing in time with his. She let out a soft moan, responding to his touch. But as his fingers brushed against the zipper of her gown, she froze momentarily, her breath hitching. 

As much as her heart yearned to give in, there was something she needed to say first–something important. Gathering her composure, she gently pushed against his shoulders, whispering, “Ethan…. wait.” 

He paused at her words, humming softly in acknowledgment but still trailing kisses along her bare shoulder and up her neck, unwilling to stop completely. 

“Ethan…” she called again, her tone firmer this time. 

Reluctantly, he pulled back to look at her, his dark eyes filled with desire and love. “You’re so beautiful, Lily,” he murmured, his voice husky with emotion. The words carried so much meaning, as if he could hardly believe she was standing in front of him, glowing like an angel in her wedding gown. 

Lily blushed deeply under his gaze, her cheeks flushing a rosy hue. He leaned in to kiss her again, this time slower and more tender, savoring the moment. But as much as he wanted to lose himself in her, he could sense she had something to say. With great effort, he pulled away, his eyes searching hers. 

He stood there, waiting patiently, his heart thundering in his chest. He had dreamed of this moment so many times, imagining his wife in a wedding dress, her beauty radiating warmth and love. Yet now that it was real, it felt surreal. 

“You’re breathtaking,” he whispered softly, his voice filled with awe. “My beautiful bride…” 

Lily’s blush deepened at his heartfelt compliment. “Ethan, I—” 

He started to respond, but she placed her fingers gently against his lips, silencing him. “Shh,” she said, her tone loving yet firm. “Let me speak.” 

Her eyes locked with his, and she could see the depth of his love for her reflected in them. This moment was hers to cherish, hers to claim. Tonight, she would bare her soul and tell him everything. It was her time to confess to let him know just how much she loved him. 

Looking deeply into his eyes, Lily’s lips curved into a tender smile. “Ethan,” she began softly, her voice steady but filled with emotion, “there was a time in my life when love, marriage, and all those dreams people talk about were nothing but distant fantasies to me. I never thought about them–never allowed myself to All I wanted was one thing. revenge Revenge and a chance to redeem myself for the foolish

She paused, taking a deep breath as the memories of her past flickered in her mind. “After everything they did, after all the lies and betrayal, my heart felt completely shattered. The idea of trusting anyone, let alone falling in love, was something I had locked away forever. But then… you came into my life” 

Her gaze softened, and a faint smile touched her lips as she continued. “You brought things into my world that I had long forgotten–love, care, trust, and feelings I thought I’d never experience again. You made me feel like I mattered, like I wasn’t just someone to be used and discarded. You made me realize I wasn’t a broken shell but a person deserving of love.” 

She lifted her hand gently, resting it on Ethan’s cheek, her touch warm and reassuring. “Do you know the most beautiful thing about you, Ethan? It’s your eyes. They’re so captivating, so full of life, that they seem to hold the power to capture someone’s soul. They say the eyes are the mirror of the heart, and yours… yours tell me everything. Every time I look into them, I see love–unwavering, genuine love–and a sincerity that touches the deepest parts of me.”
