Midnight Confessions

Category: Romance

A knock at the door changed everything.

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

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

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

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

The morning light filtered through the curtains, painting the room in soft gold.

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

The fire had burned down to embers, but neither of them moved to stoke it.

The end.
