The Italian Affair

Category: Romance

A knock at the door changed everything.

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.

He had been waiting for her for what felt like an eternity.

The garden had been her mother’s pride, and now it was hers.

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.

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

The end.
