TAKE ME THERE, DADDY (Tangled In Temptation Collection)
Although it is dark, the flames of the wooden torches held by men standing around the horses illuminate a white horse among the herd, the gold of its tack glistening from the gentle light.
Its rider is a man. Large and composed, a velvet-draped enigma flowing in the form of air about him.
Even though the shadows own most of his face, his eyes pierce through the night like a shard of glass, their aim directly on mine, bewitching my gaze to hold his.
The world slows down, the wind stills, and something about his gloomy presence forces the thorny grasses to bow as the air catches a vulgar stench of danger, as if the very appearance of this man can dissolve life itself.
