The Earl’s Bride

Category: Romance

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

A knock at the door changed everything.

She had learned long ago not to trust promises.

The market was bustling with merchants, their voices a chorus of bargains and boasts.

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

The train pulled out of the station with a long, mournful whistle.

The sword was heavier than she expected, but she did not lower it.

Some doors, once opened, can never be closed again.

The end.
