Chapter 38: How do you take your tea?
The car stopped, jolting me forward in my seat. My eyes scanned the darkness of the dense forest around me while I tried to contemplate where I was. This was unfamiliar terrain though. A cloak of uneasy darkness spread across forests, I had never been in.
Yet, this is where Caleb brought me.
He drove for hours and refused to stop under any circumstance. The irritation over his behavior and my situation grew by the second.
Just as I thought I couldn’t take it anymore, the car came to a stop and I was faced with the idea of where our destination was.
Moving quickly from the car, he opened my door and grabbed me by my arm, and roughly pulled me to my feet. The cold fresh air hit my face, as I stumbled on the rooted ground. There was no gentle touch from Caleb, instead, his firm grasp pulled me further and further up a trail towards a small wooden cabin overlooking a bluff.
