The Librarian Series Novels & Stories

The building was supposed to be empty. Elise stood between the stacks in the restricted section with a cart of returns she no longer intended to shelve. Forty-one. Head librarian for nine years. Married. The gold band on her left hand caught the low lamp light every time she moved. She had sent the last volunteer home early and locked the staff entrance herself. The quiet that followed felt deliberate.

In short, her side was dominated by chaos and bright colors. Mine was the exact opposite. The desk was neatly pushed against the wall, the bed was made under the window and my closet was locked. I didn't have any posters on the wall. Instead there was a large pin board above the desk that was full of newspaper clippings about proles. On my desk were neatly piled journals dealing with Venators and their prey. The only thing we had to share was the large shelf that divided our room into two areas in the middle. But here, too, it was clear to whom which subjects belonged. Meticulous order versus pure chaos.

His female friend slid the reference board to the left, revealing the outline of an embedded door. "Yeah. Just walk along the tunnel. You'll come to a series of rock stairs. Head down, and you'll get what you want. We don't have enough space for all the books delivered to us. Up till now, you're perhaps the only one who requested this genre," she explained. Miracle nodded and entered the librarian zone. As she opened the embedded door and glanced behind her, she was stunned for a moment to find that the librarians weren't leading the way. She was going to do it alone.

Well, what are you looking for? "Ah erm books about the creatures in this world?" I voiced out when suddenly my eyes glanced upon a particular book with a moving branches cover. It fascinated me so much that I almost touched it when the librarian grabs my hand. She hisses, "Those books are off limits." The librarian then narrows her gaze at me doubting my curiousity. She slithers away and extends her body to reach out for books and gave them to me saying, "Here's all the books containing all that you have to know. The primary creatures of our world."

Well, I believe librarians do really become naturally strict due to the everyday reprimanding of noises and hey, do not ever disturb a person with books or they will blow fire at you like a dragon for ruining the running imagination inside her head. “I have been notified about your arrival Luna, I am Tanya the librarian and I will be assisting you throughout your stay here in the Library. If you may I shall tour you around.” She said and moved out of her cubicle to face lead me the way. Yael stood behind farther and I nodded at him to gesture that he may remain and relax since we are already inside the library and nothing will happen… hopefully. “This way Luna, I shall show you the book sect

Porter answered. “Jackpot.” Jakes voice sounded. “What you got?” He held his hand up above the counter with a fist full of sealed hypodermic needles and I smiled. We were going to be the medical departments new best friends. They had been sterilising and re using needles for the last year or so and it was the bane of their existence, or so they moaned at every available opportunity. “I got a cupboard full of blue paper towels over here, what you think?” “I would leave them. There are six other labs yet.” Bubble said, coming back into the room, “and I found more trolleys” he stated bringing another two into the room before leaving again.

" Hello pretty one, how may I help you?" The librarian turned to Lexa with a gentle smile and connected her fingers together while gazing at Lexa tenderly. " Please, I need to get a book on how to hide a scent," Lexa beamed at the librarian and grinned innocently. Though, she was anxious on how the librarian will react to her words but maintained a calm face. The librarian looked taken aback and adjusted her eyeglass, her gaze changed into a weird one. It seems she wasn't expecting that and arched her thin brows, " Excuse me?"

The lady Librarian checked it and smilingly gave the book back to him. "Thanks!" with a cold expression, he forced a smile and turned around. "Good morning, Nympha! How are you today?" Upon hearing a crisp lively voice behind him, he looked over his shoulder and saw a girl probably with the same height as Samantha and the same color of hair. "Sa~" "Miss Isabella! You came earlier than expected!" when the lady Librarian cut him with her cheerful greeting on the girl. "Oh! Can't wait to check my favorite series. Have they arrived yet?" placing her hands on the edge of the counter, she asked with excitement.

I raised my head up quickly at the sound of my name. “ I am. ” I stood up as the librarian scrutinized me. She was the new librarian, Lucy Wenford, a British American. Too beautiful to be unmarried but rumor has it that she was more interested in women. “ Okay. ” She gave me a look of pity before walking away to her desk which was at the far end of the library. For the first time, I was thankful I had company and super thankful that I stayed in a seat, too far away from the watchful eyes of the librarian.

I said and quietly rushed to him so I could help him put the books on the table. I felt the librarian's presence behind me and heard her gasp when she got to know what books Sander took. Even I was surprised at the certain topics Sander took. The books contained economics, political management, and social and cultural aspects. "My word..." Clariscia spoke. Her astonished tone was enough that she was impressed with my son. "Child, are you certain that you are going to read them?" Sander looked up and tilted his head in confusion. "Her name is Clariscia. She's the librarian, sweetheart. She takes care of the books here," I introduced.
