Moonlight Serenade
Category: Romance
She had learned long ago not to trust promises.
The sword was heavier than she expected, but she did not lower it.
She had not expected to see him again, not after all these years.
Some doors, once opened, can never be closed again.
The stars that night seemed closer than they had any right to be.
It was the kind of night when secrets refused to stay buried.
The letter was still on the table, unopened, as it had been for three days.
He was the kind of man who kept his word, even when it cost him.
The end.
