It Runs In The Family Book Novels & Stories

The room was dimly lit and I walked through the rows of shelves slowly, studying each book before moving to the next. This large chamber was my family’s library. While change is said to be a constant phenomenon, I liked to make jokes about this room being the only thing I knew that wasn't subject to modification. It held information about the realms, historical pieces, information about the other realms, and classified information on how our family’s business is run and it left me wondering why anyone would leave the door open given that visitors from the other realm were in our home.

“What are you talking about? I thought you just had one brother? And you mentioned to me that Augustine was somewhat adopted into your family.” “I do. In my immediate family. But then there are the cousins and the cousin’s cousins and the aunts and uncles and the people who aren’t blood but still family involved, plus we all live together in like a family house, or estate or something like that so there will be a whole other family with their family’s family and so on. And if they are anything like me.. you know how Tasha says it, ‘arrogant’ then it’s going to be a hell of a ride... it’s just…I don’t want them to scare you away.”

I just like peace and quiet sometimes being around a lot of people who wouldn’t need space every now and then i mean I have a huge family and both my parents have 7 siblings a peace and they all live here on pack land too with their kids it’s never a dull moment in this house or in this Pack I go to get ready for my run so I can make it back in time to shower but can’t seem to find my shoes anywhere probably because one of my sisters wore them their always taking my stuff not that I don’t take theirs we share it’s a family thing so I decided to just let my wolf run either way I’m running this morning I have so much pint up these last few months I need a release.

It was a fairly large book that read Family Crests. I got excited and stood up waiting for him to open it. “It so happens I was familiar with that story and I have done my research on blood lines as a hobby.” Paul flipped a few pages in and stopped when it said ‘The Abbett Family’ and below it was a crown with a sword threw it. I was let speechless. Alpha Paul read the text,

"Welcome to the family. He had no more than left the room when I sank back onto the couch, the folder resting on my lap. My fingers traced the embossed West family crest across the cover. This life I was stepping into felt so like a movie-one I wasn't sure I wanted to star in.

She ran her fingers over the ancient book, the Reflection Game, her expression grim. She had seen this book before. Decades ago, it had caused unspeakable chaos in her village. Stories of children disappearing, their spirits lost to an underworld of torment, were etched in her memory. She had thought the cursed object was destroyed, yet here it was—back to haunt her family.

"I hope one day you can heal from the experience with the doctor. But for now, I can right my wrongs, and tell you about our shared inheritance. I have a book I want to show you." Lucy and Gertrude glanced at the book on the patio table. "It's an old family heirloom, with names of every single nymph child that graced the Eudora family over the years. It has drawings, pictures, pieces of research… almost like a nymph field guide for beginners." "You want me to read this?" Lucy asked, shock coloring her voice.

In my last life, they destroyed my entire family. In my new life, they destroyed each other instead. As for my family, we survived, whole and unharmed, walking forward into our own bright futures.

Rune paused for a moment and laughed softly alongside his brother. “And what do you want with it?” He inquired curiously. “It's just an old book filled with travel logs of an eccentric man. What does a great family want with such old trash?” “Trash?” She replied. “You and I know that book is anything but trash. If it was, you would have disposed of it the second he died,” Rune sat back on one of the chairs with a blank gaze, she had a point that had his tongue tied. “But I am a business woman unlike the Salvatores and Argyles. I operate with honor, give me the book and I will be a silent partner for your company,”

~Lily~ I knew something was wrong the second Jace texted me Thursday night. “Hey babe, big news. My family wants you on the run tomorrow. Couples thing to celebrate my patch. My friends orders. You in?” My stomach dropped straight through the floor. Run. Couples thing. Family of brothers orders. Bullshit. They never let outsiders on runs. Ever. Old ladies stayed home unless it was a family picnic. And that guy suddenly wanting me there? After I’d already grabbed audio gold and slipped out at dawn last lockdown?
