Novel & Cerita Dana Point Library Bookstore

She didn't mention that she had noticed. They found a tiny bookshop tucked down a narrow, cobblestone street. It was small and dim, the kind of place with a complex window display that probably made sense only to the exact person who had arranged it. Dante went straight toward a specific, dark section at the back of the store like he’d been here before. Ariana found the photography section wedged tightly between architecture and graphic design and began working her way along the shelf slowly. She was looking through a heavy book about old photojournalism when Dante appeared beside her in the narrow aisle, holding a volume in his hand.

I chuckled as I pictured his father's look on his face. “Were the fuck are you” I thought as I opened from one of the boxes to another, all having worn out papers or jewelries or another photo collection, I groaned in frustration and placed them back the way they were. Maybe Damian didn't keep his documents here, he had other houses and this was just one of them. My attention was drawn aback by his collection of books, I thought of checking on them before leaving the day we both had a rift. They were old art, modern art books, almost all art authors were in this Library and I marveled over the realization. Damian was very specific I concluded in my mind as I looked over and over and over aga

“The bookstore?” “Yeah,” I said quickly, feeling the need to justify myself for some reason. “There’s this place downtown, Cooper’s Books, that I’ve been meaning to check out. They have a great selection of used books, and I heard they just got a new shipment in, and—” I stopped myself, realizing I was rambling. “But it’s okay if you don’t want to. It’s probably boring for you.” Nicholas grinned. “Are you kidding? I love that place.”

Dante doesn’t look like the type of guy to be embarrassed by a grown woman’s excitement over books. “You’re… welcome…” He lifted his fist to his mouth and coughed into it. “But there’s a small catch…” His words came like rain on my parade. My lips pursed into a thin line, and all the happiness evaporated from me in an instant. ‘Of course there is. I knew this was too good to be true. Especially since it’s coming from him.’ “What is it?” I sighed. My mind was already preparing for the worst. “Under no condition should any of these books leave the library, and the kids aren’t permitted access to this place either.”

Dane chuckled, coming and sitting beside me and taking the bag to look through it. "You can keep them, honey." He said softly, pulling out another near-destroyed book of Grimm fairytales. "But I think we can find you some newer copies to use for reading and we'll keep your originals in the personal library." He smiled at me, waiting for my response to the offer. Annie enjoyed being bratty and demanding to Dane. "Can I have them in a glass case with a 'do not touch' sign?" He chuckled, kissing my cheek. "Whatever you want."

A fucking massive library. I glance around at floor-to-ceiling shelves lined every inch of the walls. The books were stacked in perfect order, some looking old and worn, and others new and untouched. They were arranged so detailed that it almost didn’t make sense. Damien had a library in his house! A Massacre center, a dungeon, a torture room, anything of this such wouldn't be a surprise but of all the things he had a damn library. I would never had thought of that. I moved slowly, my fingers trailing along the spines of the books, my eyes scanning over the titles, surprised by how much variety there was. War history. Philosophy. Literature. Romance. Cooking? He had cookbooks?

The place isn't too far from Whale Bay, it only took me less than ten minutes to walk. As I was about to enter the bookstore, I noticed the paper pasted in front of their glass wall door. They're currently looking for a cashier! My eyes twinkled in excitement as I walked inside. Diana, the old lady who owns the shop, was currently at the till. Her hawk-like eyes were scanning the place for possible book thieves. I chuckled silently. "Hello, Diana!" I greeted joyously, waving the paper I ripped off from the shop's door. "This job is mine!"

I can sleep in all day and have no worry. I sight a mahogany book shelf and I move towards it. I find the bookshelf stocked with a few of my favourite author's books I'm yet to read. There's no way he would have correctly guessed three of my all-time favourite authors and that meant he had either stalked me, or bribed Anthony, my former library colleague to give out informations about me. Dane and his team have really gone through all this length to provide each of us our comfort? This is beyond what I expected.

Nikkie asked, folding his arms, and Emily slapped his lap. “Why the hell would such a book be on A****n?” She turned to Rihanna, “Where do you think we can get it?” “I don't know about that. It's been a long time since I found it in the library. I had to return it when I gave up hope.” “What library?” Elaine asked. “Gerald Public Library.” Rihanna replied, and Elaine took out a notepad, scribbling the name onto it quickly. “Is there anything else we need to know?” I asked, looking at the notepad.

I tell Daniel and then I walk out of the cell. I know the exact book that he is talking about but how he knows that the book is in my library is what has me stumped. No one apart from me, my father and Daniel knows that the book is in the Blood Moon pack; it is in the library but in a secure vault, so how exactly did a group of rogues learn of its location? “The book he's talking about, it's the dark hold, right?” Daniel asked me. “Yes.” I simply answer because my brain is moving a thousand miles a minute.
