DOOMSDAY FORTRESS: THE OFFICER'S COLD BRIDE
A woman was standing right against the floor-to-ceiling glass of Apartment 17B.
She wasn't looking at the burning house down in the water. Her face was pressed close to the pane, her pale features illuminated by the reddish glow, her eyes locked straight up at me standing on my balcony.
She was thin, her dark hair pulled back, her face pulled tight with something that looked like desperate, silent recognition.
The moment my eyes met hers through the gloom, the woman jerked back. Her hand reached out, grabbing the heavy grey curtain, and snapped it shut, cutting off the light and burying the window in complete darkness.
