The Perfect Stranger
Category: Thriller
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 sword was heavier than she expected, but she did not lower it.
The train pulled out of the station with a long, mournful whistle.
A cold wind swept across the plain, carrying with it the scent of distant rain.
The market was bustling with merchants, their voices a chorus of bargains and boasts.
The stars that night seemed closer than they had any right to be.
Some doors, once opened, can never be closed again.
The end.
