Zaiyila's jaw dropped. "Ma... marriage... we are married! I...?" she stammered, looking at Everett in disbelief. "No... I must have been dreaming again. I'm definitely dreaming again! I'm dreaming about the Serpent King again! Goodness, when will I escape from this dream? It's driving me insane!" she thought, her gaze fixed on him without blinking.
Everett licked Zaiyila's face with his tongue before smiling handsomely, sending her mind into complete chaos. "What will you eat?" he asked softly.
Zaiyila remained mute, and her eyes suddenly became teary. "This is another dream," she murmured, placing her head on his chest. "I don't know why I keep dreaming about you, but each dream feels real, and I really don't want to wake up anymore. But I know that it will soon end. Just let me feel your warmth," she whispered as she hugged him and closed her eyes, breathing in his refreshing sandalwood scent.
