Micah had just finished picking berries for dinner. They were the red kind with the small seeds you didn’t have to pick out. He popped one into his mouth, he loved the sour and sweet flavor exploding in his mouth. He hummed a happy tune, practically skipping back to his house. He walked in backwards taking off his coat. He turns and freezes in shock.
There’s a man! There’s a man in my house! A hot man! A hot man in my house in my blanket!
He continues to panic.
How could this have happened?! I’m so far from the village! How did he find this place? What if he takes my things? Damn it! What should I do?
The two of them feel a burning connection, as if their hearts linked. “Soulmate.” River said. Micah stepped back with an expression there are no word to describe. He felt excited, upset, scared and confused all at once. River wasn’t any better, he was anxious but somehow calmed by Micahs presence. “Who the- who-“ Micah tried to get his words out. “WHO THE-! Hell are you..?” He tried yelling but ended up stepping back meekly, his shoulders and arms tucking tightly into his body. River examined the quiet man in front of him. He had a slim body but you could see some definite muscle in his arms. He had freckles all over his body, loosely curled brown hair and big blue eyes. He wore a small tank top, with straps wrapping his body towards the top, leaving just one of his shoulders bare. He had long legs wrapped by tight dark jeans, the end ripped beyond repair. River found him extremely alluring, he couldn’t tell if it was the fact that he was his soulmate or just his own tastes. He’d never seen a man more perfectly suited to his type. He smiled and stood introducing himself. He bows, “I am River Salazar. The prince of the Swix Kingdom.”
Great physical description of Micah👏 I love when stories explain what characters look like in the beginning, instead of later in the story. I’ve ended up picturing characters one way in my head, just to have them later described completely different.🤦
Micah Marvelstone, has lived alone his entire life in a secrecy hut in the woods. One day he comes across a strange man, River, sleeping in his home. When both panic, they lock eyes finding a burning connection between them, they’re soulmates.
