Step Into Reading 1 Books Novels & Stories

I took five steps before I dropped the book. “Start again.” Charles ordered as I walked back to where I started from. I replaced the book and exhaled trying to focus on this task. I can do this. This should not be overly complicated… I took eight steps and the book slid off. “Again.” Charles repeated from the other side of the room. I walked back to the door, putting the book back on my head. I carefully took eleven steps and the book slid off my head. This went on for the next two hours. “If you can make it twenty steps without dropping the book, I will let you take a break.” I nodded quietly and kept trying. I need a break from life not just this lesson. After two more hours, the most I wa

Instead, curiosity — and something hotter, more shameful — rooted me in place. “Show me,” I whispered. Elias led me to a large oak reading table in the center of the main chamber. He selected a slim, leather-bound volume from the nearest shelf. Gold lettering read *Dominance: A Primer*. “First lesson,” he said, opening the book. “Read the opening passage aloud. Do not stop, no matter what I do.” My hands trembled as I took the book. The words glowed faintly as I began: “‘She stood before her master, wrists bound by silk, heart racing as he approached…’”

The little girl was very glad to get what she was searching for. Lexa went through the page that explained how to hide any scent, but the process was somehow strange to her, and she checked the book again to make sure she picked the right one. Is this book a joke or what? She questioned herself inwardly and shook her head. Lexa continued to read the page, but it was kind of difficult for her, cause she had no opportunity to get educated. The only way she got to know how to read was through her friends and some little teachings she did for herself.

(Renata Pellegrini) How to describe the emotion of stepping for the first time into a mall? And even more, when all the stores are open just waiting for you to enter? Knowing this makes a chill run through my stomach. I feel like a child excited to go to a different place. This is good. "Does he bring all his assistants here?" - this thought pops into my mind, I stare at him, my eyes sparking with anger, I wish I could electrocute him with the force of my gaze.

I feel hot all over. “Thank you,” I mumble and step away from him quickly. I walked towards the books that were on the table. It is all dusty, so I blew the dust before opening the old pages. The book is all about wolves and their first shifting. I smiled sadly, seems like I will never get to know that feeling. “Hey Lexa,” he calls, startling me. I turned to look at him. “Want to go for a ride?” he asks.

I have to walk halfway down the row before I finally enter the plants and animals sections. The first couple of books are on forest plants. Then, I spot a book whose title is 'Herbs'. A short title, but it perfectly suits the book. I flip through the pages to find page after page covered in writing without a single picture in sight. Wanting to cover all of my bases, I search for a book that has pictures of the herbs. Not even five books away, is a book titled 'Herbs Catalog'. Each page of this book discusses a different herb and contains a large image if what it looks like.

Stephanie’s POV: When I finished eating, I went back to my room since there was nothing else to occupy my time. I grabbed a book from the small stack on my desk and settled onto my bed, allowing myself to sink into the soft mattress. My body sprawled across the bed as I began to read. At least, I tried to read. The words blurred on the pages, refusing to stick in my mind. My thoughts wandered, drifting to places I didn’t want them to go—specifically, from one brother to another.

The gray-coated man quietly whispered, "It remembers you." Adrian stopped. "I've never seen this book." The stranger looked into his eyes. "No." "But it has seen you." A low hum filled the island. The first page slowly turned by itself. The second page... was completely blank. Not a single word. Not a single mark. Only a tiny sentence appeared at the bottom. Place your hand here. The First Reader immediately raised his voice. "Don't." "If the book accepts you..." "...there will be no turning back."

She smiles as she climbs into bed. Kim smile as she moves over next to Brianna. I walk over taking a seat at the end of the bed as Kim open the book. "The very hungry caterpillar." She read the title to Brianna before opening the book. "In the light of the moon, a little egg lay on a leaf. One Sunday morning the warm sun came up and pop out the egg came a very tiny and a very hungry caterpillar." Kim looks over at me sitting on the end of the bed and smile as she turns the page and continues to read the book.

It took just over an hour of reading with half a mind, when I heard someone step in. Alpha Axel. I was hyper-aware of the Alpha as he moved around the room flipping through books before plopping next to me. He startled me out of my reverie by asking, “What have you got there?” I stared blankly down at the book for a minute, not taking in any of the words on the pages, before his question registered. Exhaling, I said, tongue thick and clumsy in my mouth, “Oh, um. It’s an old book.” Glancing over at Axel, then back down to where my fingers were tracing across the page.
