Fics like Under the Hide of Me

It’s her. Gleb doesn’t waste time doubting it. He’s spent five years catching glimpses of her in the upturned angle of a chin, blue eyes laughing or flashing in anger, a flick of auburn hair sent over a shoulder, a hand brushing against his in a crowded tram. Each time, every time, the illusion lasts only for an instant, and the woman before him is a stranger again. Every time, he feels the lack of Anya, of Anastasia, as an absence felt against the inside of his ribs. As fresh as though it was new. But this woman is not Anya as he remembers her. This isn’t a trick of the light, or a weakness of his mind, or his discomfort and yearning made manifest. She looks nothing like the grand duchess he fled from, the fairy tale that he buried. And that is how he knows she is real. Her Royal Highness has odd and unexpected tastes in nightclubs.
