And lastly, the books in this section look even older than the ones that Rhode was looking at. I take a closer look at the shelves to see that most of the so-called books are mostly loose papers that are poorly bound.

But I pull out a few anyway, sneezing my head off in the process and trying to find something about the silly legend of Udbhava.

he remarked, his voice carrying a touch of mystery. Bella, her curiosity piqued, delicately unwrapped the gift. The paper fell away to reveal the cover of a vintage book, a first edition of her favorite novel. The sight of the well-loved pages and the timeless scent of aged paper created an instant connection to the past. Avery explained, "I know how much this book means to you, and I wanted you to have a piece of history. Something that captures the essence of enduring stories, much like ours." His thoughtful words resonated with the sentiment behind the vintage book.

I admired some of the old classics and new books as my eyes wandered over every title. I had gathered a stack of books in my hand, picking ones I wanted to read and taking them out. So far, I had five books that I found would pique my interest such as Alice in Wonderland, Pride and Prejudice and the Maze Runner. All of these books were human and I admired the wide selection of books that this room had. I tried to find one that was all about werewolves like the library back at my pack had and only seemed to find one that was labelled 'As Old As Time Will Tell' written by none other than one of the eldest werewolf alive which was 'Herbert Vanderlin'. In the blurb, it states his life as an old

No matter how hard she tried to trick or cajole the reason out of me. I didn’t have to open the books to know the books were gld. Olden books that talked about traditional medicine in such an amazing way that it made my head swirl. Some of the concepts explained in the notes were foreign to me and I couldn’t understand them. I knew that I would need something to explain it to me but I didn’t stop reading. I kept on reading and reading, my mind expanding with every new word that I read.

Some old collections rich people used to show off to their fellow rich people There was a large desk in the corner with an antique-looking lamp on top, the bulb seemed to be lit but not on, there were strange-looking books, some with leather covers, others paper, some old, some brand new with pages that fell open and wrinkled under my fingers. There were even some books with gold writing on the cover but none of them looked like they were readable, I picked up the nearest one, it was titled in Latin. Opening the book carefully, the first page was blank except for two black lines that started from the middle of it, it looked like someone had drawn something underneath them. They weren't words

“What are the odds?” Pretty good as it happened because I already knew she worked there. I knew everything about her that was worth knowing. How gorgeous she looked when she blushed was a pleasant surprise though. “Are you looking for a present for someone special?” “No.” I shrugged. “It’s probably not cool at all but I just like books. Especially old special editions. Don’t judge an old man for his hobbies.” Her eyes widened. “You’re not old and anyway I can’t laugh. I love books as well. Come on, I'll happily show you the way.” She led the way forward, her jaunty ponytail swinging between her shoulder blades.

he muttered, skimming through the multiple books until he found what he was looking for, "like this one for instance." I took the vintage book from his hands and ran the pads of my fingers over the royal maroon leather that covered it. The book had no name, it's pages withered with age and turning a coffee brown. Everything in the book seemed to be hand written in neat cursive font. "Can I keep this book?" I quizzed. "You can read it, but it has to be returned. We keep these books safe because its the only books that hold our true history. I know that it's better to move on and look at the future but our past carries on to our future."

Trisha heard Mrs Perry complain as she glided through shelves teemed with ages-old books before she could be pulled into hours-long conversation with the old lady. She picked up a book from a dilapidated shelf, blew off the dust that had found solace on it's leather covering over the years, and squinted— because of the poor illumination, to see the books name. ‘Wizards Can Do More’ by one of the greatest wizards ever, LP Travis. It was a book she wanted but not one she needed. Hence, she put it back in its spot among other dusty books and walked to another shelf.

I said. "I had to be sure that you were not being followed by anyone." He said. "Do you have the information I asked for? " I asked him. "I don't know if you will have all the information you want but I think that you can find something here." He said. "Fine, what do you have for me?" I asked him. "Well I have three books. They were in the archives in the old library, I am not even supposed to touch them. These books are thousands of years old, they are first editions and rather priceless.

I just lost hope at this point, my eyes were strained already. “Oh this brat, these kids always rely on the internet, not everythin’ in there is right!” The old man annoyingly said. “How to raise a goldfish.” I said. How could this old man know that book anyway? Maybe it wasn’t even a book in the first place. “Ah! A classic. The green book written by Henry Welsh? Ah, I remember that guy, I still feel sad about what happened to him.” The old janitor sighed as if he was at a loss.
