Under The Oak Novel Mga Nobela at Kwento

The oak tree was older than the Hale fortune, its branches gnarled and thick, stretching over the stone wall like reaching fingers. I didn’t think about the physics of it. I didn’t think about the silk-blend sweater or the way the rough bark bit into my palms, scraping away the "pampered" layer of my skin to reveal the girl underneath who used to climb fire escapes to get to the roof of her apartment. I shoved my foot into a notch in the trunk, my breath hitching as a sharp pain bloomed in my side. Not now, I thought, pressing a hand to my stomach. Just a little further.

Chapter 134: A soft drizzle had settled over the compound by late afternoon, turning the ground beneath the ancient oaks into a quilt of shimmering puddles and reflective pools. The air, cool and fragrant with the scent of rain and earth, carried an undercurrent of anticipation. Whispers passed among the wolves, each one speaking of rumors that had slowly been gathering like storm clouds on the horizon—a rumor of someone once thought lost was returning.

The good thing about being Butterfly with Carson — as I've come to enjoy — was I didn't need to any longer. Carson turned to me with a perked eyebrow. In the bright white light from the ceiling and floors I could now see the slight redness in his otherwise perfect eyes and I was glad we stopped. “Where is everyone?” I waved my hand about indicating the empty space. “Don't tell me you didn't see those cars.” Carson chuckled and drew a hand over his dark stubble, an action that made me involuntarily clench my thighs. “That. Well, you did not hear this from me, but, Jaime Crawford junior also hosts an underground and very illegal poker game every Tuesday night.”

I would like to thank all of you who stuck with me through this series of books, and even those of you who have only read this book (or just two of the three). It has taken me a year to work through all three books, but I was determined to do my best to end the series on a sweet note. If you enjoyed this book and haven't read the other two in the series, please check out Under the Pale Moon (book 1) and Under the Blue Moon (book 2). Both are here on GN.

He just nodded and went with his grandfather after having caressed his daughter’s cheeks. In the garden of the house Ace was supposed to be renting, Cameron enjoyed her cup of coffee under the scattered sky. All what had happened that day was for her to understand and find her unique path. The path she must follow before the pain and the loneliness were her only company. It was true that in life we couldn’t have everything. Cameron had a family, security, peace and a good position together with a family that had accepted her for who she was. Maybe, she could learn to love Ace. “Tomorrow we’ll be sitting in another place, so far away from here.” Cameron said to herself.

Delaney "What do you think?" Paola asks in my ear. "Pretty cool, huh?" I have no words for the scene in front of me. When we were walking through the tunnel to get here, I had no idea what to expect. I certainly didn't know that we would be walking into a whole city built under the one I grew up in. No wonder they call it the Underworld.

I turned to face Uncle Steven, seeing tears welling in the corner of his eyes. “Let me help you up, kiddo,” he said, stretching his arm out to me. I held onto him and slowly got to my feet, my legs wobbly and unstable like a baby learning how to walk. He guided me to an armchair, and I sunk into it, keeping my gaze fixed on the ground. My focus narrowed to the old rug beneath my feet, an attempt to tether myself to reality and brace myself against the tidal wave of emotions that threatened to overwhelm me and pull me under.

POV: Iris The forest paths of Oakwood were quiet that evening, the sun dipping low behind the dense treeline and casting long, wavering shadows across the earth. I moved carefully, my senses alert to every sound—the snap of a twig, the rustle of leaves, the distant call of a lone wolf. Oakwood was familiar now, yet it carried secrets beneath its comforting canopy, and tonight, instinct prickled along my spine.

"Meet me tonight at midnight. The old oak tree beside the river. The words made me shudder down my back. The old oak tree stood in a quiet area covered in murmurs and mysteries. Under the cover of darkness, lovers met here, their trysts kept from view. One thousand questions whirled around my head. What had Kavan planned for me? Was this a secret meeting, an opportunity to investigate the forbidden attraction buzzing between us? Alternatively, was it more of a sinister, a trap set by a wolf trying to take advantage of my weaknesses?
