Books Like Orphan X Novels & Stories

Instinctively, my hand rested on the hilt of my sword as I stepped beside him. He picked up the first book on the stack: The Compendium of the First Blood. It was a book so old its pages were made of cured vellum that should have lasted ten thousand years. I watched as he opened it and gasped. Cold rushed through my veins—the book was mutilated. "This is the chapter about the ancient evils," Orion commented as he flipped the pages. It seemed like something, or someone, had reached into the book and torn off the pages with claws. I suppressed the anger bubbling to the surface at such damage done to something so historical.

“You only read encyclopedias or manuals on chess. How are any of the books you looked at anything like that? They’re fiction?” Clay just smiled, handing the woman his shiny gold card that signified his membership to the bookshop. “Like I said, it was just based off my tastes.” With that, the young man gave a brief gesture of thanks to the woman, collecting his bag as he made his way out of the shop. Cobble stones fresh beneath his feet and alive with the scent of autumn when he glanced back at his blonde friend. “Let’s head to the orphanage now, shall we?”

Anatoli asked. Without turning to them, Orcenal grabbed something from his bag. He showed it to them, making them squint in displeasure. It was a book. Orcenal found it inside Harriet’s room this morning. The book was the prophecy from the other world, and the title was... [The Crown’s Diamond]. Anatoli and Ayja immediately stood back up and approached him. When they were about to reach and observe the book, Orcenal threw it to the raging fireplace.

Orora stopped playing with the plants and turned around to face Collen. "Let me check on that!" She immediately teleported to get some books from the library but also came back when she noticed we didn't follow. "Oh! Come on, guys. Don't be stiff and laid back!" We all got up and followed her, groaning. In a snap, we were now inside of Alaric's enormous library. Orora began summoning the books she needed, and they started flying and floating. Some were dropped on the floor while others were slammed on the table.

Silas lifted his head when he saw someone pulling a chair in front of him. "What are you doing?" Jet interestedly asked. He scanned the books' covers and stunned to see what are they about. They're about the history of Red Woods, werewolves, and human psychology. The one Silas is reading is probably about Earth. His fingers are hiding the words on the cover but the image of the planet is visible. Realizing that the reader is paying zero attention, Jet gently grabbed the book Silas is holding. The latter tightened his grip on the book, finally paying attention to the person in front of him. "I think Saint has something to say to you. He's in the kitchen," Jet said.

As Cali went out of the office, her phone chimed in her purse. She took it out to find out that Horace was calling her. He was also an orphan and they both lived in the same orphanage. An involuntary smile spread across her lips. And she picked up his call almost immediately. She forgot about all her troubles and pain in her life for a moment. It was always like this when it was him. He was like a loving brother that she never had.

The rest of the page was blank There was nothing about their gifts and nothing in this book helped with unblocking Kris’s. The last book was the orange one and it was completely blank not a single letter was found in the book. I shook my head, even magic played games with me. I sat the orange book down thinking about going on a search of my own to see if this place was holding back on me when my eyes caught the giant red book in the middle of the table I didn't even here it land on the table.

“This book is weird, especially because the female lead has the same name as me,” Onora muttered, then closed the book. She had come here to forget her pains with books, but this one felt strange and scary to her. She glanced at her kitty, who was licking its paw. “Today is really slow,” Onora said, picking up her cat. She walked out of the library but met someone unpleasant—Kaliyah. A sneer masked her face. Onora tried to pass another way, but Kaliyah blocked the path with her body.

“I don't know. It was inches from me, burning its green eyes into mine and the next thing I knew...you were touching me.” He ran his hands through his hair with irritation. Pouting, I leaned my back against the bookcase with my arms pressed tightly against my chest. Out of nowhere, a book tumbled to the ground from the top shelf of the towering bookcase. Liam and I looked at each other intrigued. Bending down, I grabbed the weighted, brown book embossed with a gold triangular shape on the cover. The triangle had a latch, enclosing two lustrous-gold wedding bands; both engraved with flaming infinity patterns. Eyes widened, and Liam and I, were hypnotized by the shimmering beauty the rings hel
