Alpha Dorian (Alpha Brothers Box Set)
Chapte two: The Forest

That night as I lay in my bed I thought that those eyes were the mostmagical thing I had seen. They looked a type of unreal that was tooreal.

They had something unique in them and that was what sparked mycuriosity to visit that forest even more.

I wanted to capture them. Not because they would surely grant me anA but because I wanted the proof for myself that what I had seen wasreal.

But who did they belong to?

Was it a mountain lion? Or maybe a dog? Or maybe some alien? Ormaybe a wolf?

And this thought scared me. Eventhough, I was a nature person but thebig animals like dogs and wolves really scared me.

The morning arrived like it was supposed to.

And also I didn't need an alarm to wake me up. Now you would bewondering that I was in such a beautiful place full of nature so I wouldhave woken up to the sun rays or the chirping of the birds but let'skeep that to the movies.

I woke up to the moaning of Amelia. So carefully I peeked through myblanket to see that make out session in full swing.

"God replace a room!" I screamed as I ran out of the room.

"That's what we did!" I heard Greyson shout back.

Asshole!

And now I was clearly awake and had nothing to do.

Well that was wrong. I had lots to do.

The first thing included taking a bath in the room which apparentlyMike and Greyson were sharing. And after eating some deliciouspancakes, I grabbed Mike's hoodie since I could no longer go into myown room and my camera and set out for exploration

Now as much as I wanted to go into the forest infront of me, I decidedit had to wait.

This was due to two reasons. The first reason being those eyes. Theysparked my curiosity but, as I now thought about them they felt toofake to be true.

Who could they belong to? And even if it was an animal then whywould it keep staring at me and not lunge towards me and eat me in asingle bite. If felt like maybe I had a hallucination. Maybe I felt that Isaw those eyes because I really wanted to go to that forest.

The second reason was fear. The forest felt like it was abandoned. Notexplored by humans. And that meant that it could have some prettydangerous animals.

But this did not mean that I had changed my plan of going there, itonly meant that I had postponed it a little. Only until I was able toconvince Amelia, Mike and Greyson to accompany me.

So I spent the whole day exploring the areas in the forest that we werecurrently living in. It had been explored by humans so I doubted I hadreplace some undisturbed nature, but after a good walk I was able to replacesome beautiful wild flowers.

After capturing them in the lenses, I was also able to replace some insectslike Lady bugs, Grass hoppers and ants. But what amazed me about thisforest was the trees.

The undisturbed trees.

Due to the only cottage being situated there, minimum number of treeshad been cut and it amazed me to see the wonderful growth of them.They stood long with their resinous barks and elongated leaves.

Their leaves sparkled as the rays of the sun shined on them. So I putdown my camera and sat on the ground resting my back on a treetrunk as I took my moment of silence.

This was something my best friend has introduced me to. Sometimeswhen anxiety hit us hard or we felt pressurized in between of our hecticschedules we used to replace a place close to nature.

And we would just close our eyes as we would drain everything fromour minds. Soon our breathing would become relaxed and calm and forjust sometime we would forget about our problems and when weopened our eyes we would feel so light that it amazed me.

So that's what I did. But due to the environment being extra peacefulmy moment of silence lasted longer than I expected.

And maybe I still wasn't gonna open my eyes if I didn't feel theraindrops dropping on my face. And as soon as I did, my journey backto the cottage included some slips and me looking like shit as my onlypriority was to save my camera from getting wet.

Which I successfully did.

Told you independent!

You would be thinking that I would receive a good scolding from myparents once I arrived home, but they were used to this.

So I just received a long stare from them and a compliment from Mikewhich said:

"Woah you look so good in my hoodie!"

Night had arrived and we had just finished having dinner.

Eventhough, it was a little wet outside but I wanted to go out. I wantedto see if those eyes came out again or not or were they even real ornot. I knew I would face a little disappointment if they didn't show upbut it was worth a try.

So just as everyone went to bed, I slipped out.

The air smelled that scent of after the rain and it was literally myfavourite.

My first instinct was to look at the forest but it was damp, no sign ofthose eyes there but still I was reluctant to lose hope.

So I took out my diary and started writing:

Dear Diary,

I don't know what I'm doing right now but it's like I can't stop myself.Yesterday as I sat here, I think I saw two blue eyes staring at me thoughthe forest. And eventhough, it's too impossible to be true but I'm hereyet again. It's just that those eyes really intrigued me..

Just as I was writing I felt a rustle in the bushes and immediately myeyes went to the forest.

And as unrealistic as it sounds there they were. Those blue eyes staringat me again.

But this time I wasn't gonna get scared. I had promised myself that if Idid see them again I would capture them in my camera.

So very slowly I stood up, as I grabbed my camera and started walkingdown the stairs not averting my gaze from those eyes for even onesecond.

And that was my mistake.

I was so intrigued with those eyes that I forgot the stairs were wet dueto the rain and suddenly my foot slipped as my head hit the ground.And that was it I thought. The end of my secret adventure.

Only until I felt someone pick me up.

And I realised it was just the start.
