Under The Oak Tree Manta Novels & Stories

Then a dark light blead over into his gaze turning his yellow eyes, even more golden beneath the dark pine forest canopy. His long black rain laid draped over his shoulder and his large body thrummed with enough dominance to make the trees around him take a knee. Mantilo growled. Something heavy and blood thirsty as he raised a hand tipped with viscous claw. “I will see what I can do to thin the heard before the go back into hiding.” He smiled like granite. Then Mantilo turned and raced off after the fleeing Ghouls. The whimper of a pup tugged Brandon’s gaze up from his personal introspection.

They got into a marathon towards the North Forest. The wind was now very strong and the weather was awful. Selena was pretty sure a storm was coming, but she didn't want to think about that. There was a lot on her mind already, and think about what could complicate things wasn't something she wanted to do. Everyone had shifted into their wolf forms and were walking together amongst the trees on the deepest part of the forest. Looking up, it was impossible to even see the sky because of the tall and robust trees.

He knew the tales of her warrior success which meant he knew the stories of her feral side that had quickly spread after the Pack Wars. It was a rainy day and early in the morning. Dew stuck to the ground and fog lined the tops of the tall trees that surrounded the property. Adelaide stood leaning against the wide trunk of a tree, it’s bark bit into her back, as she repeatedly let her eyes wander over the empty space. She was constantly assessing for threats as she took a bite of the red apple she held in her right hand while her arm was crossed across her mid-section.

He offered his wide hand, “Let me help you.” “I can help myself.” I stood, and shook off the dirt off my skirt. He just shrugged, “Okay.” He continued and went under the oak. It was only a bit higher than Gabriel, but taller for me that I was able to raise my head high and see its perfect oddity. Its shrunken trunk and all that was connected to it had perfect shade of homey brown and its foliage was thick, but there were spaces that allowed rays of sunshine to pass through it.

“The tree stands as a human being, in other words, it explains the inner self of a person, the part which wants to remain hidden. You must have noticed the strong branches and the frail barks in the body. It means the strong branches are our outer self, that we use in our every day to day lives, to show others. But the barks, they are frail and rotting away, because of all the effort it goes through to hold the branches ahead. We never know, but the fake self that we display to the outside world, often ruins who we are in the inside, so that’s what this means. And the leaves? They just play the part to make it look more triggering.” I nod and turn pages after page. Half the book is taken ov

I stared at Lena. "Are you scared?" I asked her but she didn't have anything to say. "You know you can't be. You suggested this shit. Better pray it works." I warned and she stared down at the grass. The moment we got to the entrance of her house, I paused to look around and then I stared at Lena. "Stand here and keep an eye on the forest," I ordered, and walked in only to meet Witch Ian in the middle of a ritual.

Suddenly, they were all healed. Meanwhile in a different scene, The other faceless figure, the one who had ventured into the forest, moved with a quiet determination through the dense undergrowth. Sunlight dappled through the leaves, but the air was heavy with a sense of foreboding. The figure walked with a strong sense of determination towards a specific tree, an ancient oak bearing strange orange fruit. He reached out and gently placed his moon chain against the trunk of the tree. The forest floor trembled. The surrounding trees seemed to sway in unison, as if acknowledging a powerful presence of the moon chain.

The child stood somewhere within its depths, waiting to collide with their carefully woven fates. After navigating through dense thickets and under canopies of ancient trees, they arrived at the towering Narra tree, a magnificent giant whose roots sprawled like serpents across the forest floor. It was a sacred landmark, and Elena’s pulse quickened at the sight. This was where Alterna had glimpsed the child. “Do you see anything?” Elena asked, scanning the area around the grand tree, her heart racing with an urgency founded in both fear and hope. Alterna crouched low, her perceptive eyes analyzing the shadows cast by the sun filtering through the leaves. “Not yet, Master. But I can sense fear

;Maia was reading a book under the tree in the backyard of the pack house. She has been there for almost half an hour, enjoying the wind and the sun.
