Sunlight made him blink. The warmth flowed through every cell, thawing him. He was the first crocus of spring, awoken from winter’s slumber by the persistence of the glowing orb in the sky. He sucked in the air. It tasted fresh, pure, clean. For someone who’d been buried alive for months, it energized him as …
Entering Wonder Land – Part 2
**Did you miss part one? Read it here. The door of the gorgeous log home swung open, and a lean man stepped out. Skye sensed his magic immediately.
