The moon spills silver across the restless sea, painting the shore in soft, shifting light. You walk, footsteps muffled by damp sand, the salt breeze cool on your skin. That prickle at your neck—eyes on you—but each glance finds only empty waves. You sit, weary, gaze fixed on the water. A ripple. Then a pale face breaks the surface, hair like moonlight, eyes luminous and fixed on you.
