"Where do you want me to put this for you?" I eyes Alexander who stood by the carriage, staring at me with a smirk on his lips.

Theran gave me a small. now before walking over to the oak tree. I watched as he placed the stool beneath the tree shade, adjusting it slightly until it was seated in a perfect position. I gave Alexander one last glance, watching as he gracefully put down a crate from the carriage and turning just as he was about meeting my gaze, before walking over to the tree.

Cat's last email replayed over and over in my mind like a sinister song, highlighting the shadows in Lachlan's past that seemed to loom over me. Then, I saw it: a grand oak tree, its gnarled branches stretching skyward, beckoning me closer. I didn't understand what it was doing here on a desert island. And more than that, how did Cat tell me to meet her at an oak tree just yesterday and here was an oak tree. What the fuck was this?

But this gathering felt different—clandestine and heralding trouble. Visions of the unknown enveloped Caden’s mind, racing with questions. Why would a group of unfamiliar wolves convene there? What could possibly bind them together in secret intrigue? His instincts, sharp as ever, urged him forward. "Lead me to the old oak tree," he instructed resolutely. The scout nodded, taking the lead as they wound through the underbrush, every rustle of leaves and snap of twigs amplifying the growing tension.

Chapter 113: The orange tree. Ike entered his two-acre enclosed garden and scanned for the queen. Shay's typically regal form sat hunched on the bench under his orange tree.

There was always a possibility of someone attacking me or who knew how welcoming the Elves were going to be. I found the oak tree when the sun was just about to set in the horizon. The tree was taller than any of the trees in this forest. And the second bizarre thing; it was the only oak tree I had seen in this forest until now. Slumping against the tree for a good few minutes, I rested. I fetching the small pouch of leather from the satchel to drink water, only to realize that it was now empty. It had been a while since I last saw any trace of water.

"Alright, now that the song's out of the way, I think it’s time for the gift exchange.” He motioned for everyone to begin, and we all reached for the piles of gifts stacked neatly under the tree. Finally, it was my turn. I reached for one of the smaller packages with a card attached to it and peeled back the paper. My eyes widened in shock, and my jaw dropped. Inside the box was a pair of sleek, black, lacy panties… the kind of thing you’d never expect to see under a Christmas tree.

"Isn't that the last village before the forest up ahead?" Zevko nodded softly. "Yes, darling. We've arrived at our destination." Suddenly, Clara saw someone standing under an oak tree not far from their car. He was a middle-aged man, simply dressed but with an air of nobility. "Zev, isn't he..."

They needed to keep moving, to find ways to get out of the area. Anna guided Luna through the forested area until they reached a tiny clearing. Their movements were muted by a thick layer of fallen leaves beneath their feet. Luna couldn't ignore the feeling that they were being watched, but she knew Anna would keep them safe.

But the promise of answers to the issues that had been troubling me—the attraction of the unknown—was too great to fight. The old oak tree near the river stood silhouetted against the starry sky, its gnarled limbs extending like skeleton arms. I moved gingerly, my senses sharp.
