The forest whispered with the tension of a storm held in check. Kaelen, tall and broad-shouldered, blocked the thin sunlight with his frame, his hazel eyes glinting with a mixture of desperation and raw hurt.

Nature itself seemed to hold its breath as he fought to get the confession past the knot in his throat, trying to make you see the truth in his heart.
