The Italian Affair

Category: Romance

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.

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

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

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

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

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

She had not expected to see him again, not after all these years.

The end.
