Ari Melber Book Novels & Stories

She had red irises and started tapping her left claws index against the wood of the counter. Elijah stared at Mili, even though when he and Peter initially came into the library he was told not to. The demons of Hell were often annoyed by the confused stares of the reborn they worked with. Mili looked over at Elijah with a bored look and reached under the counter, pulling out a thick brown book that had the words "Everything A Human Needs To Know" written in gold text. "Here you go. Try not to lose this one." Mili said, directing her comment to Lucifer, "Also-" she continued, "one of the things in here is about not staring, and how that could get you killed." She said to Elijah smiling and r

“Esmerelda is not responsible for what happened to Melanie. Nor is she a police officer who is required to investigate what happened. She’s a guest in this house just like the rest of you. I would appreciate your consideration in this matter.” Ignoring the open glowering and snide remarks that were being whispered about me and my association with the very coveted Lance Northrup, I closed my eyes to see if I could get an impression from the house as to what happened. All I could get were the words, ‘The other side of the mirror.’ They made absolutely no sense to me, even though they sounded in my head over and over again. Frustrated and irritated, I walked to the far side of the room, a

Elmer was getting more and more inflamed. "I listened to what you explained earlier. The proof is that I can repeat all the lesson well," Leora said again. This time Elmer was really dead of fleas. Everything Leora said was indeed not wrong. There is no prohibition on writing or not the lessons they are currently attending. Finally Elmer handed over Leora's writing book and walked away leaving the girl. As he passed Leora, a smooth whirring was again felt in Elmer's chest. "What else is this?" asked Elmer silently. He immediately looked back. With his eyes Elmer looked at the rays surrounding Leora's body. Elmer was silently stunned by it. For a few seconds the room became quieter.

“Mel, I need you to go back to the cabin. I can’t concentrate knowing you’re in danger. There is a secret room if you pull the right book on the bookcase. It’s navy blue with gold and silver sketch of a boat on the spine. Go, please. I need you to be safe.” She had a confused look to her, but then looked around then at me. I gave the nod telling her to go, “Go, I’ll be there soon.” She turned and ran. One wolf chased her, and I leaped in its path. That’s when I heard Mel let out a scream. There must have been more than I anticipated. The black and white wolf got up and rejoined the other three. I went for the weakest and snapped its neck. Then the black and white one, cutting his belly open

Eliza nods, “It was a gift from Benny. It’s an interesting book.” She opens it to a random page, which had a lot of sketches and illustrations of the shifting process, it also had detailed notes about various aspects and refers back to the pictures where necessary. Apparently, she’d gotten the hang of it quicker than the book suggested. Callie hums, ‘Not your first time ever, just the first in a long time.’ Eliza nods, smirking to herself. Merlin returns and looks over her shoulder,

"She opened the second drawer and took out a bag of fried food. Za turned to face Elijah who was staring at the brunette's diary, the diary that no one but the brunette had ever read. " Good. " She sat down where Melia had been before and brought the journal closed by several black crosses on branches closer to her. Elijah looked up at Za, smiled. " Elijah, how do you know Melia? " I... The thing is that since I was five years old, if not younger, my parents used to read me a book called Melia Conkinova before I went to sleep. " He said and looked at the brunette who was leaning on the bar, eating fried food. " They told me with suspense and mystery the details of the history of their family

Beatrice asked with a sigh. "Leave me alone. I'm finally keeping myself excited and not bored." Melinda said, flipping onto another chapter to have her eyes widen as she read the chapter's title. "What is it?' Beatrice asked, seeing that girl's reaction. "What did you say you wanted to find out? this one talks about Unsheathing the gift of swords." Melinda said, to have Beatrice nod as she picked up the book. She walked to the very place she had placed the lantern and peered at the book.

Mert was a bit quieter than everyone else, like me… Only speaking when spoken to. How odd, unlike me, the outsider, they were his friends. I could only guess at his reasons, maybe he liked one of the girls, maybe he was naturally shy, who knew. Melisa caught my attention; I told her I liked her dress. She looked especially pretty today in a strapless blue dress with tiny white anchors all over it. We got into easy conversation because Melisa was like that, an easy person to be with. She had a purity, a kindness about her but which wasn’t obvious.

I whispered to Jack who was sitting by my side I was already asleep before Jack's arrival last night "Later" he whispered back "Did you guys kissed?" He rolled his eyes but didn't reply "You guys should shut up" dad warned "We aren't even saying anything" I said angrily "Irene" mom warned We all went back to listening to Mrs Williams stories "Exactly twelve days ago, Melinda left home without leaving any letter behind. And since her new boyfriend, Jeremy Kelvin who came from the city was also not found, everyone beliefs he was the one who took her away because her parents weren't in support of their relationship"

Wendy Another library. Another dead end. So far, anyway. "Nothing." I close the book louder than I mean to, and a woman at the next table over glares at me. I make an apologetic face and shrink into myself. "Same here." Alec pushes his book away. The local library on the third island isn't much bigger than a house, and the number of books on local lore amounts to what can hardly be called a stack. "Maybe this is pointless," I mumble. "Igor spent decades searching for the coin. What makes us think we can find it in a few days?"
