Category: Thriller

A cold wind swept across the plain, carrying with it the scent of distant rain.

A knock at the door changed everything.

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

He stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down at the waves crashing below.

She had not expected to see him again, not after all these years.

The end.
