Her eyes fell upon the mysterious man. He was not hiding, not speaking... just watching.
Judging by his clothes,he was not from around the area.
His clothes were nowhere near local. It was dark elegant and strangely clean for someone in the woods. His black hair framed his sharp face. The way his green eyes locked at her,it was as if he was reading her thoughts.
Not having time to process what was happening,she screamed and tried going back only to stumble backwards and fell onto the grass.
"What the- Why are you just standing there like some creep!?" She overreacted a bit,a bit shaken too.
He didn't even bother responding her,his piercing green eyes looking straight at her like he was looking at her soul.
Getting a bit frustrated with other emotions coming in sue to her being shaken up,she jabbed a finger at him.
"Were you following me? Are you following me?" Se paused for a while, quickly getting up.
She went backwards a bit, overreacting again,"oh my god,are you going to murder me? Is that what it is?"
Finally getting tired of her running mouth,he spoke,a bit annoyed. "You talk a lot" he just said.
Startled by his response,she stopped mid in her tracks. Blinking in surprise,she just asked,"excuse you?"
"I wasn't following you" he said,his voice smooth,cool and entirely unimpressed. "You wandered into my forest." He completed.
"Oh ohh, I'm sorry," she said, backing up a step and raising both hands. "Did I step on your moss kingdom or something, forest prince?"
From the tone of her voice and even her actions,she clearly didn't believe him. His gaze became a bit colder than it already was.
"Vivienne," she continued, sarcasm now shielding her panic, "outcast, screaming lunatic, lemon enthusiast. Who the hell are you?"
This made him pause. Something in his expression shifted...just slightly.
He took his time before he answered her,"... Ravien"
"Well, Ravien,if you're not a bandit or a murderer, maybe stop lurking behind girls like some ghost in a bad bedtime story... even your name sounds as wired as your clothes."
"Excuse me?" He said on her last statement.
"It's nothing." She just shrugged it off. Does she think he didn't hear her? He decided to taunt her a bit.
"You were shouting at trees. I assumed you weren't easily startled."
She wasn't expecting to be caught talking to herself. "That... that was a private conversation" she was flustered a bit saying that.
"In the middle of the forest?" He asked with a slight amusement in his voice as he let out a low chuckle. His cold stoic expression now replaced with an old one.

So now he's laughing? 👀 That's suspicious.
