Blackwood by Celia Aaron
I dig. It’s what I do. I’ll literally use a shovel to answer a question. Some answers, though, have been buried too deep for too long. But I’ll find those, too. And I know where to dig—the Blackwood Estate on the edge of the Mississippi Delta. Garrett Blackwood is the only thing standing between me and the truth. A broken man—one with desires that dance in the darkest part of my soul—he’s either my savior or my enemy. I’ll dig until I find all his secrets. Then I’ll run so he never finds mine. The only problem? He likes it when I run.
Love Words from Garrett to Red
Red,
Hearts and flowers aren’t my thing. They aren’t yours either. Your things involve dirt, lots of dirt. My things involve dirt, too, the kind you get under your nails while you scream my name.
Remember that time I showed you the clearing with the stream? It was warm, and we’d startled a small herd of deer. You were wearing those little green shorts, and you sat down on a fallen tree and let your feet dangle in the water.
I’d gone out there with the intention of showing you what I hoped was a good dig site. But when I saw you sitting there, the sun in your hair and that sweet smile on your face, something clicked inside me. The same switch that flips whenever you sass me or run from me.
I became the predator and you my prey. You sensed the change, because you stared up at me, your eyes sparkling as I approached—and then you took off, racing through the clearing barefoot as I hunted you down.
I tackled you into the soft grass and pinned you. You tasted like watermelon gum, and it wasn’t long before you were naked and writhing beneath me.
That was the day we created Noelle.
I’ve never loved anyone more than I love the two of you. And I can assure you that no man has lived as fully as I have every day since you darkened my doorstep.
Thank you for being mine, and for giving me life when I thought mine was over.
Your wolf,
Garrett
