Wowzer! I love how you wove so much of the main character's soul into your descriptions- I think we can learn a lot from the way he speaks to those who look up to him humbly, sips expresso while patiently observing a woman he desires greatly, and waits when many would take hasty action...
The lines near the end spoke to me too. To be loved for who you are and not what you are is stunning. To have someone that just wants YOU is such a great gift from the universe. A true romance story indeed 💗
If you don't get first place with this one, I'd be shocked. An eloquent tale with this sort of vibrance is a rare read 🤩

Thank you - I'm so glad you liked it ! I tried really hard to think myself into the heads of the two main characters before starting to write.
Although I wrote it mainly from Mike's perspective, I always had it in the back of my mind that in reality, it was Ariadne who was controlling events, touching his life just enough to keep his obsession alive, and watching him to see if he really was the one. Not that I see her as a creepy stalker or anything - just someone who has been hurt a lot in the past and wanted to be sure it was right.
The hard bit was keeping it down to the word count, I could have made a whole novella out of it !
