Books Like The Spell Shop Novels & Stories

Chapter One A lot of things changed when I reached the age of fifteen. On the night of my birthday, my mother gave me a box she said it's her present to me, for the first time in my life my mother gave me presents on my birthday. It was wrapped in red cloth with a black ribbon tied on it. There was the excitement I felt as I started to open the box. I was almost amazed at what I saw. It's a spell keeper necklace that features a beautiful deep, blue cock topped glass vial containing a blend of herbs and its vial is suspended from a Tibetan triquetra charm that was hand made from their ancestor and a spellbound bracelet filled with a mixture of hand-blended magical herbs.

Stopping in, the clerk had sage burning and a freaky crow perched on her shoulders. I felt this weird kinetic energy surrounding her. Who is she? I guessed Camila felt it too; she shuddered and stepped closer to me. “What brings you, ladies to the shop today?” The clerk asked. “I'm just browsing. We just moved here.” I strode around the shop, touching an array of candles, books, jewelry, and much more. The shopkeeper came back and handed me a book. I ignored her creepy smile, and read the title, Birth of Witches.

Alexandra could feel the tension between these two. "Uhmm…I should get inside," she couldn't look them in the eyes, she turned and entered her room. _________ "I'll be introducing something different today," Robert glances over at Lexi, she wasn't paying attention. "Pay attention, little brat," he scoffed. Alexandra rolled her eyes and glided her eyes from the book on the table. "What's that?" She queried, pointing at his hand. The book in Robert's hand caught her attention. "This is a book of spells. There are few of these books, but I think this is the last one, all others have been burnt." He countered as he turned the pages.

"The Grimoire of Imogene Greenreaver. Only those in my line shall read the words upon these pages. So mote it be." A shiver ran through Saffron as she read her grandmother's words. She turned the pages and found that this was indeed a book of spells, not just one of traditional remedies. Her eyes widened as she flipped through the spells. A tingle ran through her fingers as she read one for casting light in the darkness. Confused she looked at her hands. They seemed to glow slightly. She flexed her fingers experimentally. A spark of light shot from them.

’ she asks me curiously. ‘No, but maybe one day we might? Who knows what our future has in store for us,’ I smile, open the book of spells, and read over a few. Revito Sprouto means to grow. Dimulous, a spell to darken the light. Illumini, to create a bright light, Interesting. I flip through more pages to read more spells and chants. The back of the book has potion recipes. Suddenly, Kayla startles me as she stands very close, staring intently at my hair. She’s a bit odd, how she was reading my hand like a book and now staring at my white hair in thought.

I smile admiring them. "Tomorrow is the day after a millennium of waiting, who is it going to be???" I was taken aback, since Nana spoke in Riddles, I don't understand any of the things she said "Err…..Nana..what do you mean?" I asked scratching my hair, "Tomorrow is the full moon, are you prepared?" "Yeah sure you said we are going to work at the Mansion tomorrow," I said "A heart exchanged for power, a soul sold to the devil, who will be mated to her?"

Layla says as her and Lorie step out of her room and follow me to the study. "I figured since you are looking for answers you might find better luck looking here." I say as I point to various shelves of books. "Thank you." Layla says as she picks up a book and carefully rubs her hand across the cover. "I've never seen a real spell book before." She says as she cracks it open. "You will find many resourceful things here and you are welcome to come here anytime." I say with a smile as I sit down in a chair grabbing a book and opening it.

Two weeks later, it happened again. Leesa’s book had not shown her anything about the spiral energy pattern, despite many attempts by her to learn something. The magical tome usually seemed able to read her mind—no matter where Leesa opened the book when she was looking for a specific spell, the spell she sought would be there. Sometimes, when she wasn’t looking for anything specific, the book would present her with a new spell it either thought Leesa was ready for or that she needed.

Another hand was raised in a second. “Go on,” Prof Odessa nudged. “Spell books are heavy to carry around. Does that mean they have to take it everywhere to do magic?” “Well,” Prof Odessa cleared her throat, closing her teaching box with everything she had brought out earlier completely in. “Due to advanced magic, you could shrink a spell book and turn it into a metal necklace.” My memory went back to that night with Kamari. She had touched that small silver book necklace around her neck before she pushed the table towards me. Was she perhaps a siphon? The other girl who had blocked my view of Kai had that exact necklace too, the black-colored version.

I push the thoughts away from my mind and focus instead on the twins. They made me feel special and wanted. I have to admit, I loved having their hands on my body and the way we moved together. I could feel our magic mingling. When we stepped through the doors of Spellbound, I swear there was a shift in the air. I'm getting whispers and looks. Some smirks and others look disgusted. Just what the hell is going on here? "Did you see her last night?" A girl asks her friend.
