Inferno

A stolen glance across a darkened restaurant.

A kiss under the Italian moon.

A proposition I never would have made in my former life.

Our story began just like all fairy tales do...



Once upon a time.



Once upon a time, a mysterious, passionate man opened my eyes to things I'd been blind to. My heart to feelings I never thought imaginable. My mind to endless possibilities.



Once upon a time, I experienced something I didn't think existed.



Once upon a time, I learned how to fly.



Little did I know it was with broken wings.



How can we have a future when he's still tormented by his past?

How can I give him my heart when experience tells me to keep it guarded?

How can I still want to be with a man who would lie to me so recklessly?



They say life is a series of roads, each fork a decision that can lead you to a different destination.



Now I find myself faced with a decision of my own.



Do I put my trust in Dante?

Or do I turn back into the same sheltered Ellie I was when I boarded that plane?



Only fate knows the answer...
