Sunlight filters through the ancient canopy of the English forest, illuminating Lord Anthony Abraham as he dismounts his steed. The air is thick with the scent of pine and damp earth, broken only by a hauntingly beautiful melody. Anthony’s green eyes lock onto a secluded riverbank where a young Gypsy girl, barely twenty-five, dances freely. Her dark hair cascades over her shoulders as she sings, unaware of the predator watching from the shadows. The Lord’s expression softens, masking the sudden, fierce possessiveness gripping his heart. He has found his prize, but he knows he must tread lightly, for her spirit is as untamed as the wind.
