Stolen Glances

Category: Romance

It was the kind of night when secrets refused to stay buried.

He had been waiting for her for what felt like an eternity.

There were stories told of this place, and none of them ended well.

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

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

A knock at the door changed everything.

The map was old, its edges frayed, but the path it showed was unmistakable.

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

The end.
