Eloise May Library Novels & Stories

"Town is boring. We're going to the library." "The library?" "Yes. Books. Silence. Old ladies reading romance novels. It's the safest place on earth." "Paper cuts," Cale muttered. "Dust mites." "Get your coat." They drove to the small town library. It was a brick building that smelled of old paper and rain. "Quiet," Cale noted as they walked in. "Acoustics are dampened." "That's the point." They walked to the fiction section. Elion pulled a book from the shelf.

A single window still burned with light — the library. "Rosalie didn't wait an hour after all," she said, almost to herself. "No," Pearl laughed. "I don't think she made it ten minutes." Neither of them knew that inside the library, Lucien had looked up from Elias's journal at the exact moment Rosalie stepped through the door — and that for reasons neither of them could have explained, seeing each other there felt strangely like coming home.
