House Of Leaves Audiobook Novels & Stories

I wasn’t even sure if he’d gotten everything settled with his frat brothers when he drove me to the airport in the morning. I tried to let those thoughts fade away while on my flight home. I put in my earbuds and decided to listen to one of the smutty werewolf audio books Hana has gotten me hooked on, Alpha Gray by CJ Primer, with Theo and Maddie as narrators. The book is HOT, and Theo’s voice… yeah, it makes for an enjoyable two-and-a-half-hour flight. I love how he changes his voice when speaking for each Alpha. Hana told me they’ve done the narration for the rest of the series, and I can’t wait to listen.

It smelt of old papers, and I couldn't help but inhale the scent. Dark wooden tables with cushioned seats were arranged in the library. Keeping my head down, I check the corner in case there are cameras lurking in here. I didn’t notice any blinking, but that didn't put me at ease. The Auder's mansion has this eerie quality. I was on high alert all the time. I only let go when Carlo was around; maybe that was a mistake too. I pulled out a paperback about the light in the mind. It was my first time hearing about it. It’s written by J.E. Hampton. Never heard about him or her.

“We improvise it live.” Pauly handed her a slim, battered paperback—Mockingbird, cover worn, pages gutted to hold a wafer-thin transceiver and a micro-SD slot. “Your new copy. Same weight as the real one. Press the title twice if you’re burned; it wipes your last three hours and plays an audiobook. Press the author twice and it pings us with location.” She slid the book into her tote without looking. “And if I press the spine?” “It complains about being objectified,” Pauly said.

Hand on the knob. The house burned behind her, slowly, elegantly. The kind of fire that didn’t destroy, only reminded you what had already been lost. She didn’t look back. Didn’t breathe. Didn’t cry. She turned the handle. The door creaked open. And behind it, There was no sky. No ground, Just a single chair. Facing away from her. Someone sat in it. Reading, A book made of bone. Their voice hummed. And the page they read out loud was Chapter 101.

I can hear the anger in his voice as he stood inches behind me unexpectedly. "Pick a door." I reach out to the black door in front of me and turn the knob. I walk in as the door slams shut behind me. startled I look behind me, the door is no longer there. I stand in a dark room, I can barely see my hand in front of me. All around me I can hear whispers and faint screams. I can hear footsteps walking inches away from me. "Where am I? What kind of door did I go through?"

He looked torn between things I couldn’t decipher. I felt my lips tremble slightly. I knew I shouldn’t but was I to do? “I know.” I sounded so timid, just as I felt. “I’ll leave.” I picked up my bag and shoved the book I’d intended to read but had slept off quite shortly after picking it up into it. I didn’t need a constant reminder that I wasn’t wanted. “Leah, wait…” I shook my head no and continued my search for the door. His house was so fucking huge that finding the entrance felt like the triwizard tournament puzzle game in Harry Potter.

Leo. I stopped short of the doorway and just… listened. I could have walked in. I could have coughed, made a sound, staged an exit. Instead I slid back into the shadow of a bookcase and let the quiet cloak me. Some confessions don’t need an audience; they need a witness.

A long, grotesque howl swept through the house, rising from the depths beneath the floor. I felt the bond inside me twist, as though it recognized the presence below—and despised it. "What is that?" I asked, already knowing I would not like the answer. Vardam smiled, cold as ice. "The next page of the story." I swallowed. "You mean the book, don’t you?" "Have you read it all?" "All of it?" I let out an incredulous laugh. "Have you seen the size of that thing? It is practically a graveyard of trees. It has hundreds of pages."

I hissed squirming. “Just watch. The fun is about to begin.” The man tilted my face towards the stage where Alpha Woods now spoke confidently about borders and praising his daughter. “Now I would like to remind everyone of the rules.” Alpha Woods spoke right as an arrow whizzed over everyone's heads. Impaling him in the neck. I watched horror struck. Seeing my Alphas eyes widen in shock. He locked eyes with me opening a mind-link ‘Get Kayla to safety’ I heard his voice fade near the end. A second later his body went slack landing on the floor with a dull thud.
