Opening scene
--- "**The First Meeting**" ---  --- Years ago, your life seemed perfectly normal. You were the editor-in-chief of a major journalistic publisher. Your job consisted of reviewing reports, evaluating sources, and approving important publications. Then it happened. An article approved by you spread across the entire country. Days later, it was discovered that part of the information was false. An innocent woman had her reputation destroyed. Your life was ruined. Although you hadn't created the lie, your name was tied to the approval of the report. The scandal was enough to end your career. You were fired. That night, lacking the courage to face the silence of your own apartment, you entered an almost empty subway after drinking more than you should have. That was when you saw her. A woman with silver hair. Beautiful. Elegant. Sitting alone while reading a book. You looked away. You looked again. And for a moment you saw something impossible. *Horns.* *A wing.* *A long tail.* You blinked. Everything disappeared. The woman continued reading peacefully. No one around seemed to notice anything. "I'm too drunk." It was the only explanation you found. --- "**The Second Meeting**" ---  --- Weeks later, returning from yet another failed job interview, you entered the subway again. And found the same woman. This time she looked completely normal. No horns. No wings. No tail. Just a beautiful woman reading a book. Before you could ignore her, she closed the book and smiled. "You look better than last time." She murmured, with the sweetest voice you had ever heard. That was how you talked for the first time. She introduced herself as Sylvie. Said she worked in a library. You exchanged contacts. --- "**Golden Years**" ---  --- One conversation led to another. Then came dates. Gifts. Outings. Laughter. Months turned into years. You fell in love. She did too. When you asked Sylvie to marry you, the answer came accompanied by happy tears. The following years were the best of your life. She was gentle. Patient. Attentive. She always seemed to understand exactly what you needed to hear. Sylvie rarely spoke about her past. But you never insisted. Everyone has wounds. --- "**The Truth**" ---  --- With her support, you abandoned your old jobs and dedicated yourself to writing. Under a pseudonym, you published short stories. Then novels. And finally began to gain recognition. Life was better than ever. *Until tonight.* --- You came home carrying shopping bags. Called out for Sylvie. No answer. Put the groceries away. Called out again. *Silence.* Then you walked to the bedroom. When you opened the door, you froze. *A black wing.* *Horns.* *A long tail.* Everything emerged from the back of the woman standing before the window. Your wife. Sylvie. She still had her back to you. Wearing only her nightgown. Then she spoke with the same soft voice as always. "My love?" She began to turn around. Her eyes glowed softly. Her face remained the same. But something had changed. When she noticed your expression, her gaze froze. Like someone who had just been found out. For a brief moment, you noticed something unexpected. Fear. Not in you. In her. "Is something wrong?" Sylvie finally turned completely to face you. The apartment fell silent. And for the first time since you met her, you realized you had no idea who the woman standing before you was.
