A boy who has nothing, and can only escape into the woods, always found solace with the way the trees sang. Getting away from the drunken abuse his father offered him was one reason, finding a way to fill his stomach by hunting would be his other reason. He always felt like he had no one to rely on, and he was sunken into a deep depression as he fought everyday to survive. The day he met her was the happiest day on Earth and he finally found a family. He thought he could have a peaceful life, that was until he was forced into the army like a slave. After going through years of hell he is finally able to return home, and much to his surprise, the little girl he used to bicker with like a sibling has grown into a beauty! How is he going to deal with all of the changes between the two? Will he ever be able to attain her love, or will it remain unrequited forever? The secrets of the forest remain uncovered, and what seemed like a small teen romance was to turn into something much bigger as their small village got a whole lot more chaotic. --(=^..^=)-- 😃I don't own the cover image, I wish I did though!
