Novel & Cerita An Open Book

Riven would kill him if he found even a tiny scratch on his mate. "What...how...what cut you?",he stuttered. Layla showed him the book while Alex ran out quickly to fetch some wool to wipe the blood. When Layla tried the book again, it opened. She was clearly perplexed at the whole thing. "How did you do that?",Caleb asked. "Do what?" "Open the book. That book has been shut tight for as long as I can remember". Layla looked down at the opened book. The title was also written on the first page.

He was eagerly looking towards her, urging with his eyes that she get up and follow the group back into the library. Katalea stood, it was time to see what all the fuss was about. They stood in a circle around Luca, who donned medical gloves that stopped at the elbow. He reached into the glass case that housed the book and before he could attempt to open the book, the front page fell open, revealing an ornate depiction of an old robbed man with a staff. He had a long gray beard, braided down his chest, and weather-beaten skin hidden mostly beneath his tattered and layered robe. His blue eyes leapt off the page imploring the reader to inquire further. Or perhaps run away. Katalea wasn’t

"Why won't I --" "Forget it. We are getting distracted. Do you have the book with you ?" I took out the book and handed it to her. "Oh, it doesn't ---" I cut Emily with a sigh. "--have any author or publishing house mentioned, I know." I generously completed it for her. "Fine then let's see what kind of myth it is hiding." She sighed and opened the book... well tried to. I frowned. "Stop playing, open the book already." "It's not opening. I'm serious."

Or was it? The book I took had an old brownish cover. It seemed dusty and ancient. But surprisingly, it was locked. With a padlock and it seemed like it needed a key. “It’s locked, Lady Archer.” “Yes dear, it is.” “For now, though. It’s left to you to open it; I’ve played my part.” “But I don’t have the key. How do I unlock it?” I asked frightfully. What if the answer to everything was inside the book? What if I never open it?

“The pages are blank.” “That’s what makes it useful.” He hovered his hand over a page of the book and murmured some words. The page glowed white light. “The light is an indication. It’s ready to answer my question. We get to ask a question per month. We only have one shot at this.” Lexa looked at the book, waiting for Elliot to say something. “O mighty book of answers; tell us how the gate of Seareign can be opened!” The glowing light stopped. A black and white picture was painted on the book by an imaginary hand. The picture of a snake was formed.

With Xoey's assistance, she brought the box indoors, and upon opening it, they found hefty books embellished with intricate black vines intertwined with one another. There were about seventeen of these books with such vines acting as locks. She had been instructed (according to the accompanying note) to commence with a certain locked book that featured a lustrous golden brown cover and also devoid of a title, without assistance from anyone. Xoey simply helped to arrange the books on the new shelf that had been delivered a week before. Today was the first day of her reading the book. She had spent hours trying to find the perfect way to unlock the vines yesterday. Of course, Xoey served her r

“Then we find the book that started it all…the first page…and we tear it apart.” The screams of the books grew louder as blood poured from their pages, flooding the library red. Amidst the chaos of whispers, a deep sound rose clearer than the others—the sound of a giant book opening. The shelves split apart, revealing a massive volume at the far end of the aisle that towered over Vincent and bled rivers from its spine. On its open page, words glimmered in fiery gold across the blood-soaked paper, in letters so large they filled the whole sheet but written in one sentence:

If my handjob sucked, then I had to make it better, learn the best way to treat a cock, and whip him up with something he’ll never forget. “Noah”—his moans played in my head as I searched the shelf for something helpful. [The Faith of the Dragon Lair] [How to kill a dragon] [The Art of Fireflies] [An Omega’s Journal] My finger paused at the last book, “An Omega’s Journal.” It sounded intriguing and also felt like it was written from experience. I pulled the book out of the shelf, dusting it off and removing the particles in search of the author’s name. No name, no copyright claims… Who would leave something this private in a library?

Its spines were tattered and appeared like spiky wires beneath the poor lighting. Trisha walked slowly to where it was and pulled it out of the other nine books crammed into the same row with it. She repeated the same process she had with the other books she'd picked—dusted it's shabby cover to see it's name. Unfortunately and very shockingly, too, there was none inscribed on it. That was odd. She flipped the book to the other end but nothing. It was empty of inscriptions, just like the front was. Slowly, she opened the book to first page.

Gerey started. “Yeah, I tried getting the book open all evening - yesterday, but to no avail. I skipped dinner cause of the damned book!” “Oops, that's bad. Who knows? Sir Oswic might a' placed a spell on it only allowing it open once.” “That seems feasible although I doubt he'd do that.”
