Wild

He saved me.

Addalyn "Addie" Blackfoot

I was somewhere I shouldn't have been, doing something I shouldn't have been doing. As Tyler Blackfoot's daughter, I know better. There are expectations to being who I am, but I've never fully lived up to them.

Adoption.

It's supposed to be the answer to prayers both for the parents and the child. Me? I've always felt a little out of place, like I couldn't settle down, a flower blowing in the breeze, waiting to be uprooted.

Until the moment he stepped in front of me, taking the blade of the knife meant for me. I didn't know his name, but the way he looked at me, it was like he knew all my secrets, but didn't care. It was reckless and passionate, and I never thought of the consequences.

I figured after I got what I wanted from him, I could break it off and never see him again.

I was wrong.

Wilder "Wild" Evans

She came into my life when I least expected it. Strong, fearless, and ready to take whatever the asshole holding the knife was going to dish out.

For months after, I couldn't get enough of her. Her joy in life, the way her eyes lit up when she saw me, and the smile that popped dimples in her cheeks when she wasn't paying attention. She calmed every part of a man who'd never had steady and I craved it.

Then it was gone. She became a different person, left without a trace, and ignored my texts.

Fate intervened, and I found her again.

I got my calm

She got her wild
