It`s been three years since the death of her only lover. Christian had been her world, her everything. Every night she has the same dream of him. Ana would dream that he was asking her to marry him but before he could even finish the question, Christian gets shot through the head. Sometimes in this dream he is killed by someone mugging them. The fact she still has the same dream almost every night confuses Ana. She still hoped that that horrid night was all a nightmare and that Christian was still alive somewhere. Maybe he was but wasn't allowed to contact her.
Christian may have had everything but none of that mattered to Ana. All that did mattered was that he loved her and was genuine. Ana had come from a modest family in comparison to him. She may not have had everything handed to her, Christian loved her regardless. His death had ruined Ana almost beyond repair Christian having left everything to her in his will, Ana probably wouldn`t have survived this grief. Anastasia had almost gotten over her grief until she saw someone who looked almost exactly like Christian. All of her heartbreak had come flooding back.
