The Midnight Library Matt Haig Novels & Stories

POV: Kai The air in the back corner of the library was thick, heavy with the scent of old parchment and the citrusy shampoo Ava always used. It was well past midnight. The janitor had already made his rounds, leaving us in a pocket of silence that felt both like a sanctuary and a trap.

"Child, you don't need to ask. This house is far too quiet anyway. The library is yours. Use whatever you need. Knowledge is the only thing they can't take away from a woman." Zara felt a lump in her throat. "Thank you, Begum." "Go," Salma smiled. "But don't stay up too late. The law is a jealous master; it will steal your sleep if you let it." The Midnight Library Zara waited until the house went silent. She changed into her simplest cotton suit—the one she had arrived in—and made her way down the dark hallways.

"Hey, I was just about to call you. Angie's out with Bastian. Do you want to order something?" "Yeah, anything you want. Listen, I need Midnight's help with an assignment, where is she?" "You need help?" he asks, looking at me with confusion. "Yes, I need to read a book. It's about a mathematical philosopher and.... I can't do it," I explain. Lion nods as he understands the situation. "She’s in Angie's old room. Try to make it quick, I'm starving." I assure him it will be quick and head for her room. I knock on the door but open it anyway, if she's going to be part of the pack she has to get used to the idea that there is no privacy between us.

I hid my hand inside the pocket of my hoodie and starts distracting myself. I entered an alley instead of the entrance in front. The blast of the music inside was already invaded my ears. Club X is where I spent my nights working. Lucas owns this place, he became my friend when I started a fight inside his bar. I stopped walking when I noticed something in the dark corner of the alley, a place where usually there's no light can reach. A two silhouette flashed, I heared a man screams who started pleading, it's not visible but there's a silhouette of two people in the dark. The man who keeps shrieking in pain was lying on the floor, while the other one kick his face.

And he chose to start training her when she was very young, saving her from homelessness and coming to her aid like a god. Later, she decided to go see her senior, who had supported her since she joined the sect, after she had left him to finish his studies. When she arrived, she saw that he and the others were receiving punishment, so she made the decision to go into hiding to find out more. Later on, she encountered Ava, Lila's sister whom she heard that Lila her sister is the head of their sect but had not seen her before.

As he straightened his cufflinks, he cut his voice and added, "Don't wait up." I said, "I won't," already preparing my next move. I opened my laptop as soon as he was gone and looked up the Harrington archives. The searches directed me to a Midtown private library that needed special access to enter. I was uncertain if I would even be permitted entry, but my curiosity was burning brightly within me. An hour later, I was standing outside the imposing structure, which had elaborate carvings on its stone facade. The smell of polish and old paper filled the air within. As I walked up to the counter, a grim-faced librarian gave me a dubious look.

“What’s in that?” Emma’s good mood vanished as she turned solemn, “Blood.” She gulped looking queasy, “it’s for Damion if he is uninterested in the girls they bring him.” Yuck. Vampires were monsters and Damion just proved my view on them. “Can you help me move my stuff?” I shivered thinking of sleeping in the same room as Eric. Emma looked apologetic, “I heard. I’m sorry Val lucky for you Eric usually leaves at night.”

"What happened?" "I found the administration office." "And?" Liam held up a thick leather book. "I found this locked inside a cabinet." The three of them moved into a nearby lounge and placed the book on a coffee table. Dust coated the cover. The words MIDNIGHT HOTEL STAFF LOG were embossed in faded gold lettering.

She asked, obviously trying to shift the conversation. “Well I was searching for you. I got lost and I stumbled upon the mansion's library.” I replied. “It must have been stressful.” “It was, but luckily someone directed me to your room. I also found a book in the library.” “What book?” “Midnight Howls by Orin Darkhowl.” I replied. “Let me guess, you need me to get the book out of the library for you. So that you can read it each time you come to my room.”
