Rising
(The Wild: Issue 2)
Publishing Date: April 20, 2023
I’m not the kind of guy that gets attached.
After my parents passed away, I learned nothing is forever.
Not the fame my band is gaining or the girl I might be falling for despite our “no-strings” relationship.
With so many changes in a short amount of time, I find myself spiraling further and further with no end in sight.
Except maybe rock bottom.
Then the unthinkable happens.
Kira gets pregnant and if I don’t get my life together, I’m about to lose way more than I ever bargained for.

About Micalea Smeltzer
Micalea Smeltzer is a twenty-something author from Northern Virginia. She has four dogs, which is as crazy as it sounds. As a recent kidney transplant recipient she's dedicated to raising awareness around the effects of kidney disease, dialysis, and transplant as well as educating people on living donation.When she's not writing you can catch her with her nose buried in a book.
My obsession with reading started over 30+ years ago when I went to my first Scholastic Book Fair and found R.L. Stine's Fear Street series. Later, I came across Anne Rice's novels at my public library when I was fourteen when my obsession with vampires started. I was the girl who preferred to be a vampire over a princess any day. My husband says I would leave him a heartbeat for a vampire that looked like Spike or Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries. (It's true, though, and he's accepted it.)
