The Mysterious Haven
(BOOK 1: Fiction) Title: The Mysterious Haven
She falls back as gravity pulls her to the earth like two opposing magnetic forces, as she hits the solid ground; a pile of dried-out autumn leaves softens the impact and scatters across the meadow, the wind carries a few over the forest trees.
The earth is heated by the sun that shines into the clearing of the forest, she closes her eyes and smiles with satisfaction.
She takes a deep breath and smells the fresh, lush pine and grassroots.
Her metallic, grey eyes open slowly and stares straight up at the blue sky as if penetrating through the heavens into space with her eyesight.
Nature surrounds her as she outlines the forest to every detail, she allows her soul to unfold in this quiet and safe haven. The warm sun kisses her skin and greets her eyes with an awakening dawn, the sun rejuvenates her body and livens her soul.
This is her sacred solitude and her place of escape to another country; her small country and her perfect world.

Breathing in all the beautiful magnificent scents around her, while her eyes are still closed and appreciating all her surroundings, a sound disturbs the tranquility of the forest and its natural inhabitants, a foreign guest has entered. It's a disturbing presence that arouses the creatures near its path. The young female hides among bushes to prevent herself from being discovered and she lurks near by to observe the new visitor. She's like a thief of the night, a dark shadow and a overseer of the forest. Her grey eyes change colour to be camouflaged with the forest leaves, as she adjusts her skin with the nature around her like a tropical chameleon.

Lastacia tries to remain calm, her heart starts thumping to the rhythm of the Intruders footsteps, it races against her abdomen and sternum as if it's about to burst through her chest or out of her throat; the poor young female is beyond terrified and has an unsettling feeling that her world is about to be discovered or worse exposed.
The tall man pushes and cuts away at the thick growth of branches and bush infront of him trying to clear his path; his hands are protected by gloves that he always wore whenever he went on a wilderness adventure.
Izumiru had always enjoyed the fresh smell of the forest it made him feel free and alive, he could breathe in the entire world with one inhalation.
His broad shoulders had been formed into muscular weapons due to excessive outdoor activities or mainly due to hours of meticulous martial arts training which he had a passion for. He was lean, but muscular and fit with zero body fat; Izumiru knew that he was good looking and attractive to every female on campus or whom made his acquaintance. Although he was humble by not allowing the attention from females to cause a deceitful personality trait to arouse.
Izumiru had always kept to himself whether or not he was old enough to realise a young man should never be too quiet, because good communication skills is a sign of emotional intelligence, confidence, mental strength and stability.
Lestacia admired his silhouette from a distance, she could smell his manly cologne from a mile away; she shook her head and realized that she has to get rid of him before he makes it to her secret clearing in the forest.
Lestacia made an alarming sound with her mouth, it caused the forest to stir, the creatures suddenly jumped out of hiding and defended her territory, Izumiru had fallen hard on his back in suprise and hit his head on a rock beneath him, as he recovered his consciousness, he felt a heavy weight on his chest he opened his eyes and looked straight up into these penetrating earthly green eyes that stared into his soul, his body felt immobilised, his heart was pounding with confusion....
