Chapter 12

Chloe

After a long day, the last thing Chloe wanted to hear were gunshots in the woods around her house. She disliked the practice of hunting, but she knew her neighbors were well within their rights to hunt on their own land.

On their own land.

This time, the shot had sounded way too close to be on their land. Chloe’s cabin was centered right in the middle of her property. For at least two miles all around, the land was hers, and no one was allowed to hunt here.

She snatched up her phone and dialed Henry’s number.

There was no response.

Of course not, he was too busy hunting illegally on her land.

Huffing under her breath, Chloe moved to the window. She knew she couldn’t just go running through the woods trying to stop this. There was too much risk of her getting shot accidentally if they came too close to her house.

This wasn’t the first time Henry and his friends had gotten excited over something they were chasing and moved over onto her land without realizing it. They’d done it once before, and although Chloe had let it go after Henry had apologized and his wife had baked her some pies, that was supposed to be the last of it.

They’d been warned once now, and while Chloe hated to take any legal action against her neighbors, enough was enough. What were they doing out in her woods in the middle of the night?

She pointed her phone at the window, hoping to get a photo of them actively hunting on her land. It would be a lot easier with evidence. Maybe she could even get their hunting rights temporarily revoked. The forests should be a safe place for the animals that lived here, not zones of danger and death by human guns.

Instead of getting a glimpse of the hunters, though, she saw the last thing she would have expected. A flash of movement caught her eye and she looked up, her mouth falling open as she stared.

A reindeer. A reindeer flying over the treetops.

She blinked hard, but it didn’t disappear. It was snowing outside, and at first, she had thought she was just seeing things. But no, there was an actual reindeer in the sky.

It was angling upward, flying closer and closer to her cabin. Chloe frantically tried to remember if she could have been exposed to anything that would cause her hallucinations, but she came up blank.

It didn’t make any sense. Matt had told her that crazy story about Henry seeing a flying reindeer the other night, but that had just been a story, hadn’t it? They’d had too much to drink.

Chloe only had a cup of hot chocolate after dinner. No alcohol, no drugs, no illness that could be causing hallucinations.

There shouldn’t have been a flying reindeer, and yet, there was.

The reindeer didn’t get far as the hunters chased it. Another shot went off and seemed to hit because the reindeer faltered in the air before tumbling down, out of the sky.
