Gabrielle Zevin Books Novels & Stories

Sinclair “She’s still mad at you, huh?” Gabriel remarks, glancing pointedly in the direction of my sullen mate. Ella is curled up on the couch reading the Vanaran history book she risked her precious life to reach last night, and occasionally glancing up to shoot me vengeful glares.

Not only did she become a bookworm, but also a little weird. He moved closer, this time behind her. He didn’t believe she was really reading a book. He wanted to know the truth. Carefully, he tried not to make a sound. When he got close enough, he peeked. And he was right, Gabriella was hiding her phone behind the book. He bent down and whispered in her ear. “I thought that was for school. But it’s an e-book. That’s why you wear anti-rad.” Gabriella quickly closed the book, her phone caught inside. In less than two seconds, she turned to him and smacked his arm.

Theodore. His finger tapped each name one at a time. "All of them fall together." A quiet of agreement spread through the room. "And what if one lives?" Harrow's smile was thin and nasty. "Then we hunt them down until there are none left." The paper seemed like a death sentence, and the ink was darker than the candle wax that dripped to the floor. Gabrielle was alone in her flat, which was full of books and screens that were full of unopened files. The rain whispered at the windows all the time. She had worked hard to get out of her father's shadow, but the past never rested; it followed her.

She also went to a few bars and showed them to Thea on video chat. When the relationship books arrived, Thea put them in an unused corner in the library, and when she needed a break from goddess gift research, she read those or did school work. Since she was going through nearly every book in the library, she started a Xerox stack for any information she found on matebonds as well. If she was going to change the curriculum, she needed something to change it to, and she needed to be prepared to back up her arguments when she had the meeting about it. “Goddess, those triplets are lucky,” Lizzy said. “With everything going on, you make the time to research how to have the perfect relationship.”

Anyway, there was no going back; the secret was already out. “Were you aware that Isabella came to me? She was in touch with me for a while when she noticed that Zayde was interested in you,” Gabriel revealed, and I stopped writing. “How would I be? You never told me. I think I'm very much happy that Zayde divorced her. She needs therapy,” I answered casually, even though I couldn't stop thinking about what Gabriel and Isabella would have been discussing.

It was an image of Scarlet’s face. Caitlin felt her stomach roll with anguish. How had her daughter’s face come to be on this ancient text in a lost vampire library? Once again, she thought of destiny. It was as though everything had already been decided. No, it was more than that. If felt as though everything that was happening now had already happened before, as if they were living in a constant loop with history swirling round and round, repeating ad infinitum. The life she was living was just one cycle, one in which the outcome had been predicted before, but was not set in stone. She could change the premonitions and prophecies. Whatever was supposed to happen, she still had control over

“How powerful is she?” Nobody answered immediately. That collective hesitation was more terrifying than any statistic. Finally, Gabriel spoke, his voice low and grim. “Before Cain, there was Eve.” He paused, looking out into the dark treeline. “Eve didn't need physical contact to bridge a connection. She didn't require synchronization.” Ava’s stomach tightened into a painful knot. “What does that mean, Gabriel?” Gabriel turned his gaze directly onto her, his eyes hollow. “It means she could influence minds from miles away.”

I had to act smartly before I would be disgraced, but the physical pain I was experiencing at the moment surpassed the emotional discomfort as I assumed that my embarrassing video in the bathroom from the previous night was probably the trending on the internet.

These sparks are the only beautiful things he owns; these sparks keep him from going insane, and these sparks remind him that one day he'll come for those who hurt him. “Hmm, scary. I wonder if this blacksmith guy actually does exist,” Gabriella said, staring at the book. She closed it up and placed it back on the shelf, then turned to leave the library. She walked back through the door and through the passages to Steven’s office, then knocked the moment she arrived at the door. “Come in; it's open,” Steven said with a rather cold tone. Gabriella noticed the difference in the tone of his voice, then quickly pushed the door open.

She wasn't anxious-she was ready. The invitation from Gabrielle the day before had been a breath of fresh air, an instant reprieve from the stifling pressure that was always around every movement she made at Anderson Enterprises. The small café, ambiently lit and rich with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, was just perfect for bonding between the sisters-in-law.
