Reborn in Magic - Part 1

The windshield wipers worked in overdrive as the rain pounded down. Most people would have pulled over and waited for it to pass, but a month away from home had been long enough. This wasn’t going to stop Dar.

He was about to have two weeks with Lily, and then the wedding after that. It almost felt like he was tempting heaven to screw this one up, like everything else, but this time, things were finally coming together.

Dar took a deep breath, working to convince himself that the fluttering in his stomach was just nerves. He had nothing to worry about.

If you had asked him a few years ago, he would have said that there was no way in hell that he would ever get married. At that point, he had barely stayed in one town for more than half a year.

The nomad life had appealed to him, and he had grown into a jack of all trades thanks to his adventures. It kept life interesting, and really, there was never a compelling reason to stay. Of course, there were more than a few times that he had left in order to avoid something rather than seeking the next great adventure.

But then he had met Lily, and it had been like being struck by lightning.

The way she laughed and made a joke of it when Dar had inevitably put his foot in his mouth, or how she would celebrate the small things with that overly loud laugh of hers… Lily was just easy to be with. Something he hadn’t known he needed until he found it.

Up until that moment, he’d been a wild stallion, enjoying nothing more than picking up and taking off to the next adventure whenever it suited him. But something in him had changed when he had met her.

He was currently coming back from an oil drilling job, and he felt comfortable with the idea of settling down and sticking to a single woman for the rest of his life. And that baffled him.
