The man stood there watching her and Julietta pinched herself to make sure that she wasn’t dreaming. He looked like a fairy-tale prince with his thick, curly brown hair and piercing grey eyes.
Julietta gasped at the sight. The light of the moon made the man’s hair glow like a halo. His eyes shone like the wolf’s had the last time that she had seen it.
For a few moments, they just stared at each other, rooted to the spot.
The man cleared his throat, suddenly.
“Good evening,” he said in a smooth voice.
“Hello,” Julietta replied, just above a whisper.
“Were you expecting someone?” the man asked with an inquiring look on his face. He walked towards Julietta, extending his hand in greeting.
“Not really,” Julietta responded with a smile.
“Well, my name is Raine,” the man said while he held his hand out to her politely. He smiled broadly as they shook hands.
