Hungry Like the Bear
Barrett
Hazel came to Screaming Woods searching for one impossible plant. Finding it could save her career, prove everyone who mocked her wrong, and justify every sacrifice she’s made.
I’m only supposed to keep her safe while she looks. Instead, I start bringing her food, waiting for her after dark, and making sure she never has to face the forest—or anything else—alone.
Hazel listens to my thoughts, laughs in my kitchen, and looks at my monstrous body as though she sees something worth touching. Something worth loving.
But men like me don’t get chosen. We stand at the edges, keep everyone safe, and learn not to reach for things we know are impossible.
Hazel is searching for a discovery that could change her life.
I’m trying not to hope she’ll discover that the life she wants could be here—with me.
