Druid, Mine by Kerry Adrienne
Anya’s
wish for a normal date—away from the old man she is caretaker for—comes
true in unexpected ways when she finds herself whisked to an ancient
Irish stone circle on solstice eve.
Carrick’s decision
to follow the path to become an Ovate druid has not come lightly, and he
plans to spend the solstice eve in meditation unless fairies or evil
spirits disrupt the circle. When a feisty girl walks right up to the
fire, more than sparks fly.
They each seek healing and a
connection, but the darkness of summer is short, and once the solstice
sun breaks through the circle at dawn, the magic of the night will be
over. Even Madame Eve can’t stop the day from rising.
EXCERPT:
Maybe
I’m the first person Madame Eve can’t find a match for. And how was it
any better than just picking someone up from one of the dozen bars along
the street?
Bile filled her throat. Being caretaker
for the old man had filled her days but left her empty inside. I’m
lonely. I need this 1Night Stand. She stifled a sob. Crying wouldn’t
help anything. She had chosen her path knowing full well what the
consequences would be. Maybe she hadn’t foreseen how deeply alone she’d
feel, but she’d known what she was getting into, work-wise. She used to
be a risk taker, impulsive and willing to try new things. Why was she so
willing to settle for security now?
The town’s few
buildings rose in shadowed relief in the dusky twilight around the city
center like tall stones. Guardians, perhaps. Behind them lay the
mountains, the wild unknown. She sat straight and leaned into the faint
spray from the fountain. The cool mist spread across the back of her
arms. Closing her eyes, she lifted her long hair so the moisture could
reach the back of her neck.
“Aine?”
Anya dropped her hair.
“Hello?” No one.
“Aine. Let’s go.” The voice floated on drops of water and fell through the air.
“What?” No one was near.
“I’m here.” The voice settled softly like dew on her skin. The air wavered over the fountain and the water slowed.
I only had one beer.
“Come. He awaits.”
For the briefest moment, a golden light eclipsed the edge of Anya’s vision then darkness slid over her.
