Dear beloved wanderer,
It is with great pride and pleasure that I extend a formal invitation to you for a worldwide expedition. I plan to travel the globe over the span of a single year, you see, and I am in desperate need of company. If you accept this offer, then be aware that we shall be experiencing more celebrations than most have in their lifetime. Even though each one is merely a bite-sized sample, they pack more punch than you may be able to handle. However, I know you love a challenge, so I do hope you consider this opportunity.
I would advise you dress up in comfortable garments as you dance your heart out for Cinco de Mayo, get your hands dirty while planting trees, and let the aroma of hot cocoa waft under your nose as Christmas music plays softly in the background. I suspect that we shall also be participating in some sort of musical event in June. Anyhow, if you would like to join me, then I shall meet you at the airport tomorrow morning with your tickets.
Best wishes,
A lone explorer

Mea again
"No matter your problems, face them with a bright smile and a bucket of chocolate ice-cream," nana once wisely told me. At the time, I was barely twelve and thought that I could summon a unicorn if I just believed in myself. A decade later, despite my massive student loans and almost nonexistent love life, that piece of advice was all I needed to maintain good mental health and earn myself some lovely padded hips. Little did I know that a horrific monster was lurking in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to strike and scare the living daylights out of my naïve and helpless self. 'There she goes again with the metaphors and literary witchcraft...' Did you really have to make an entrance right now, conscience? I was about to get to the exciting part. As I was saying, that hideous monster popped out of nowhere and there was no ice-cream bucket big enough to vanquish it. Hence, I only reacted the way an average person such as myself would. 'You gathered your forces and made it creep back into the shadows? It realized that you were too nice and boring to be messed with? Or did Prince Charming arrive, on his white horse of course, and saved little helpless you?' Nope, not exactly and definitely not. I ran away and left everything and everyone I ever cared about behind. 'Remind me again why we're having an emotional trip down memory lane?' Because it's about time I went back and fixed everything. - 🏆 1st place winner in The Duck Awards (Romance Category) - 🏆 1st place winner in The Chaos Awards 8 (Humor Category) - 🏆 2nd place winner in THE ROMANCE READS CONTESTS (Lovers Category) - 🏆 2nd place winner in The Sparkle and Shine Awards 2K19 (Romcom Category) - ✨ Featured on Wattpad's Romance - ✨ Featured on Wattpad's Cupid - ✨ Featured on Wattpad's NA - ✨ Featured on Wattpad's Multicultural -Complete

Add sunlight to the mix- which shouldn't have a smell but Luna, he smells like it- and I'm pretty sure if I could open my mouth, I'd be drooling. 'Mate.' My wolf whispers, giddy. I scramble back up the stairs. ____________________ Opening up when something terrible happens is hard. Near impossible.

Bound Book 2
"Skylar. My love. A stranger. I look at her as she halts in her step, her hazel-doe eyes not looking for mine as I hoped they would. The breeze blows her scent towards me, one I have not smelt for days. I inhale deeply; cinnamon, jasmine, apple, and Sky's unique scent assaulting my senses. My eyes close and my fists clench, my Lycan forcing me forward. Damn, I missed her. That feeling was driving my Lycan and me insane. Literally." Join Skylar and Dmitri on the next part of their journey. Will the puppet master playing with their fates finally be revealed, and will the love they shared be strong enough to endure? This is not a stand-alone book and is the second book in the Bound series. Find book one on my profile or here https://www.wattpad.com/story/319146768-bound. Bound is not your typical shifter romance and contains more mature characters with a focus on the relationship and character development. This book contains some curse words and explicit sexual scenes as Skylar explores her sexuality. This book is for a mature audience. ©2022 Eloise Benjamin / greenwitchwrites. All rights reserved.
