Moonlight Serenade

Category: Romance

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

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

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

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.

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

She had learned long ago not to trust promises.

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

The end.
