The Earl’s Bride

Category: Romance

He was the kind of man who kept his word, even when it cost him.

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

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

The stars that night seemed closer than they had any right to be.

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

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

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

The letter was still on the table, unopened, as it had been for three days.

The end.
