Big Salmon Lake All I Asked of You...

Sooner or later she had known this time would come.
And while she had wished for it to be 'later', she could also not deny the strong rush of anticipation and adrenaline that bubbled at in her veins when a very familiar voice called her name. Under the drowning sun of the afternoon, Cara's eyes glistened with rage. The open wound he had left as he had tried to sabotage her happiness with an elaborate death scam stung at with his sole presence. 
As the Queen jerked herself around to face the man she had once shared intimacy with, a million of demands and questions began to pop in her mind, almost hushing the sound of her throbbing heart.
He, like the well-trained assassin he was, had arrived without raising a flag, slipping through the foliage and finding her with an ease that made her undescribably uncomfortable.
Would he be here, there, everywhere to haunt her forever?
Or would he just leave it to the memories to taunt her everyday?

"You cannot stay away, can you?" she barked, her voice coming off raspy not because she was hurting (not as much anyways) but because she had been caught so off guard by his arrival.
