One evening, while wandering through the forest, Aria stumbled upon an unfamiliar scent a rich, intoxicating blend of earth, pine, and something uniquely masculine. Curiosity piqued, she followed the aroma until she came across a mysterious figure standing at the edge of a clearing.
He was tall and broad-shouldered, with deep, chestnut hair that framed his rugged face, adorned with a hint of stubble. His amber eyes glinted like molten gold, and as he turned to face her, a palpable tension crackled in the air.
"I'm Kael," he introduced himself, his voice a low rumble that sent shivers down her spine.
"Aria," she replied, her heart racing as their gazes locked.
The world around her faded away, leaving only the two of them in that moment. She could feel a magnetic pull, as if the very universe was encouraging them to draw closer.
