2 Proposal

We locked eyes. The gaze of his sea green eyes had me hypnotized. Then he grabbed me, and flipped me against the tree, covering my body with his. I snapped out of my trance.

"What do you think you are do you think you are doing!!" I huffed.

He looked down at me and put a finger to my lips, directing me to be quiet. Slowly he moved his head to peek around the tree. His black hair covered him and I like a blanket. Gently removing himself off of me he spoke.

"It's not safe.." his gaze very sturn towards me, "I've been following a beast here for a few days and it locked on to you as you bathed in the stream."

I got a chilling feeling threw my body, but stayed quiet. He made his way out from around the tree, then nodded at me to stay. I complied.

He walked around the forest floor near by, bow in hand, ever so gently. Slowly he let down the bow and relaxed his posture.

Scanning the forest with his eyes one last time he said, "It's gone...for now.." and motioned that I could step out.

I nodded but soon realized I was not dressed and hopped back behind the tree to shuffle my clothes on. He didn't seem fazed and waited.

I made my way towards him, " Who are you?"

"I could ask the same," he retorted "You shouldn't be here, it's not safe for someone like you."

"Like me?! what do you mean, like me?" I was offended.

His eyes changed, now instead of a light green they shifted to Yellow.

"Many things belong out here but you are not one of them." He hissed inching closer to me, pushing me back towards the Willow trunk. His chest was exposed from his flowing White shirt, waving in the breeze with the shift of his hair.

He propped his hand up next to me to reveal sharp nails. Smelling my hair he made his way to my ear tucking my red hair back. I winced. His eyes widened and softly dropping his arm grabbed my waist.

"Since you are in my forest I will make you my bride." he whispered

I froze, what was I hearing? All I wanted was to rest in the stream, now a gorgeous man from no where, it seems, wants to marry me for... trespassing?

"Excuse me! I hardly know you! Hell I don't even know your name!" I flustered out.

He seemed taken back, but slowly pressed against me.

"I'm Silvyr.." He whispered to me.

I pushed him back and stated, "Leanna..but why me?"

"You trespassed and have gazed upon me. So you have to marry me.... also you have the Spirit of the Willow I can tell it's the only way you could have spotted me. " He looked up, around us and was making his gaze back towards me.

"Willow..spirit?! what are you going on about? I need to get back to my village." I squealed.

" I'm afraid once you see me you can't go back." he softly stated. He gazed at his feet, pale and bare, then turned towards the stream.
