My Mate's Rejection

I took off running, dodging trees and their branches. My heart thudding at a dangerous pace, increasing its rate with every step I made. Everything seemed to blur together, from the brightness of the blue sky to the deep green of the forest. All that mattered in that moment was that I had to get away. Get away from him and his emerald green eyes that sought their way into my soul. The same orbs that hardened with anger and sadness when he rejected me, yet made me want to fall deep into the green pools and never return.
