Entangled souls

After telling me his most dark secrets, Alexander's behaviour changes quite a bit.

First of all, he becomes happier. Seeing that I won't run away just because of his supposed first tragic life, he relaxes.

He has always smiled a lot to me. Yet, these last few days, his every grimace has been more sincere.

There isn't any need to hide anything since it can't be worse than what I've already heard and accepted.

Thank goodness, I'm believing in it as well.

My weird dreams have intensified as if I unlocked a secret door after hearing my husband's story. They're not as sweet as at the beginning, unfortunately.

I've relived the banquet from Alexander's perspective. That night, I woke up shaking and crying.

Alexander just hugged me, worrying. I didn't tell him about my dreams: it would have been odd to explain.

But then again, were they worse than his beliefs?
