Mackenzie climbs the tree

Chapter originally written by Phantom Pen on writing . com

The nearest option was often the safest in Mackenzie's opinion. As such, it only made sense for the beautiful redhead to start climbing the tree with all her might. Mackenzie scampered up the tree faster than she'd ever climbed in her life, adrenaline fueling her strength. Mackenzie was within the branches of the tree in seconds, and just in time. The naked beauty had only just started to situate herself among the branches when the voices finally reached the area. Had she been even a few seconds slower to react or decide, she'd have been in full view of the group.

Looking down from her hiding place within the tree, Mackenzie's breath caught in her throat as she caught a glimpse of who she'd been hearing. A chill of fear ran down the redhead's spine as she realized who she found herself hiding above.
