For this weeks Warmup Wednesday we had to write about the prompt below in a genre we don’t normally write in. I chose romance, because I am terrible at writing in this style and therefore avoid it as much as humanly possible!

Carried Away
They all say I’m a fool to love him, that we are simply too different. I wish I could see things so clearly. When I look at him all I see is his majesty, he demands my attention. My gaze is drawn to him instinctively, so that when he hovers nearby I can’t help but stare. My friends think I am crazy, they are all scared of him, they run for their burrows at the faintest whisper of his presence. I just wish he’d notice me, swoop down, grab me in those powerful claws and carry me into the sunset.
