Novel & Cerita Inside Her Book

I picked it up gently and saw it was a picture of a little girl, she couldn’t have been older than two, sitting on a woman’s legs and had her head rested against her chest. The woman in the picture was Meredith, but did that mean… I opened the book and saw several baby pictures, on the inside, it was labeled ‘Selene- our baby girl is finally here' There was another sentence that had been covered in white, it was unreadable. I closed the book, feeling the burn behind my eyes from the tears that were building up, and placed it on the shelf. I was back in my room, it felt weird to say that. My room.

She asked him shutting him off, from across she heard him chuckle, but he didn’t look up at her. “Asshole” She spit out in annoyance as she shut her phone and dropped it on the bed beside her, she closed her eyes and what she saw was the eyes following her in the darkness of her dream she snapped her eyes opened again. Who knows maybe if she sleeps again she would have the same or more horrible dream. She was feeling restless already. She stood up went to the table side the vase and picked up a book there titled “Hurting the Hunters” She shook her head and went back to her bed, she could keep us with the book for a while. She started on the book, it was interesting right from the start and u

He heard her wait. He said: "Come in." She came in. She said: "You read them." He said: "Yes." She said: "All four." He said: "Yes." She said: "What do you think." He said: "I knew most of it." She said: "Yes." He said: "But I knew it from the outside." She said: "Yes." He said: "The books are from the inside." She said: "Yes." He said: "The inside is different."

That was the account of a woman who had bought candles on sale and had eaten the meal alone and had worn the green dress to a dinner she attended by herself. "Yes," I said. "I am ready." "Good," she said. "Call me after the Thursday meeting." I put the phone down. Went to the bassinet. Picked up Eleanor. She looked at me with the dark, patient eyes. "Someone is going to publish the book," I said. She looked at me. "The book I wrote for the women in the long middle," I said. She kept looking. "You were born in the chapter about arrival," I said. "You are in the book."

How did she get in here? "How did you get in here?" I quizzed in a calm voice, confused at the look of paranoia in her features. "What is it about this book? Why do you seem afraid?" "Because no one is allowed access to it except--" She stopped, probably realizing she was about to spill too much to another Alpha, more or less a stranger. I stepped closer to her. "Except who?" She didn't reply, instead backed into the glass door like a frightened mouse, her eyes wide and face ashen. I smelt her fear, raw and putrid. However, I saw that her gaze was still pinned onto the book.

Clutching the flowers to her chest, Polaris felt an unexpected warmth, like she was reconnecting with a part of herself she had left behind. She continued her walk, drifting into her favorite bookstore. It was as cozy as ever, with shelves crammed with books and the faint smell of coffee lingering in the air. She ran her fingers along the spines, finding comfort in the endless rows of titles. Pulling a book from the shelf, she settled into a corner, letting herself get lost in the pages.

Ears attuned to the slightest sound, she paused outside a closed door near the backside of the house and heard the unmistakable sound of books sliding across a shelf. She let loose a wolf whistle as she entered. The library was far larger inside than the unobtrusive door had presaged and was stocked with row after row, case after case of books. Enough books to start her own bookstore. “I knew I heard books,” she said to no one in particular. “You hear books?” Daniel’s lightly sarcastic voice came from the far left corner of the library. “Interesting. Most people actually have to read them.” “It’s a gift,” she said, shrugging. “What are you doing?”

A memory hit her like a wave: sixteen, barefoot, hungry, scribbling in the margins of a free newspaper while a woman in the next cot cried all night. She whispered, “Thank you.” And walked on. ⸻ The second stop was harder. It was the bookstore where she used to hide—pretending to browse just to stay warm. It had been remodeled, polished, modern. But the back corner still had a reading bench. And when she sat down, she felt her younger self beside her. It was surreal seeing her own book on the shelf. She reached out and touched the spine. Rewrite: A Story in Pieces.

"I'm glad you did." She handed me the envelope. Inside was a photograph. Not of me. Of herself. Standing in front of a small storefront with a simple sign above the door. Chosen Books & Café "I opened it today," she whispered. "I almost stayed in a life that was making me disappear." Tears filled her eyes. "Then I read your story." I looked at the photograph. A tiny bookstore. Fresh flowers in the window. Lights glowing warmly inside. It wasn't an empire. It didn't need to be.

The girl said. “Same here. I actually thought that this book wasn’t popular but you’re reading it as well. Oh, I’m Kayne by the way, Kayne David.” “I’m Natsumi Koga, it’s nice to meet you!” “Ah yes, you as well. I was actually about to ask if you always come here.” Kayne asked. “Uhuh, I always go to this café every time I go to town, this is actually kind of my spot, haha.”
