Depthless Forest

Foot steps clatter... dry leaves slowly shatter. Under his breath he muttered. "You're not safe here."

The girl hissed before glaring at him. "You think I don't know?" She interrogated.

The wind had blown back her silver-gray hair, showing an exceedingly beautiful face before the young lord's eyes.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" He curiously asked, moving closer to the girl at the same time. He did not probably recognize her face. And for as long as he knew, he had gone hunting for around three years, never seeing such amazing beauty before.

The lady did not respond, her cold blue eyes stared at his brown ones instead. She thought silence would take over the place next. But suddenly, clattering steps of horses followed and the birds started freaking out.

"I told you, it's not safe here." The guy repeated, hoping for her reply. Unfortunately, she turned her back at him in a quick manner, with her eyes roaming around the forest. The sound of steps seemed close to them, signifying a dangerous scheme. She thought it would be safer to move.

She was about to go, but stopped. She hissed once again and muttered, "If I were you, I would leave the forest this instant."

And she disappeared after a single snap.

"Speed."
