He looked at the windows, like perhaps they should be open. “It’s almost December. In Montana. It’s not warm at all,” I said. “We’ve been talking about putting up a Christmas tree. It might snow next week.” Mr. Nuthatch ignored my comments on the weather. “Miss Nightingale, the council appreciates your recent assistance with Fionna Flamingo. It seems she has some interesting traits that we were previously unaware of.” I wanted to say, “Yeah, she’s a looney tune,” but didn’t, I only nodded along with his statement and waited for him to say more.

Miguel screamed from the bed, "What are you doing?! Why aren't you casting something?!" "I-I can't!" Natalie shouted. "The book! I don't understand it anymore! The words-they're gone! They turned into symbols and shapes!" Cielo cried, rocking herself on the bed. "No! No! No! That book is our only hope! Fix it! Fix it now!" Natalie turned the pages faster, hoping to find at least one part she could still read-but every page was the same. Unreadable. Foreign. As if someone had replaced the entire language overnight.

"Landon," Veronica's voice was a soft whisper in the stillness. "What is it?" I asked. "Do you know... I really like you?" Her words hung in the air, her cheeks flushed a deep shade of crimson. My heart pounded in my chest, the rhythm erratic and wild. A confession in the dead of night from a nurse! This was a first for me since joining the hospital. "I... I..."

The air grew colder and damper, and Amanda could hear the distant drip of water echoing through the darkness. Finally, they reached a large chamber, where a group of vampires were gathered around a central figure. As they approached, Amanda could see that it was Martina, the daughter of the Leader of the vampire. Martina's eyes locked onto Amanda, and she could feel the weight of her gaze like a physical presence. For a moment, no one spoke. Then, Martina stepped forward, her eyes still fixed on Amanda.

There was no mention of the video of my torture that was sent to the previous group chat, which was a huge relief, but the ladies did talk about me, some of them wondering when I was going to give them the book recommendations I was about to give them that night before disaster struck. They were being sweet, saying they needed the next book to read for their book club, the one I was now a member of, and said I was the one who was going to choose it for them. They were being adorably nice, and I was in for it. But before I could think about giving them a recommendation from the long list

All thoughts of taking a lady home had flown right out the window and instead like a creep I had found myself by her side all night without her knowing. "Zade Cutler what on earth are you doing here?" She asked, I held the book I had skimmed through last night in mid air. "You mentioned a book club", I replied, her face showed displeasure. With gritted teeth but an audible voice I picked up, she said, "What games are you playing at?" "Nonsense, Claire. Everyone's included in our book club, most especially my god son" "God son?" She lifted a brow, I crossed my hands on my chest,

After a few seconds of me glaring deeply and him examining every inch of my body, his eyes finally moved back up to my face.

I was nodding, my spirit lifting, when Haley’s voice sliced through the budding hope. “How touching. A book club for the illiterate. What’s next, Luna? Finger painting?”

She screamed in his ears. “Where did you learn that from?” He asked frowning. “Mary told me. There is Cinderella. I wanb Cinderella.” She said and a soft smile played on his lips at the demands of his almost 3-year-old daughter and her mispronunciation. Her birthday was the coming week and she had already been making a list of the things she want.

she huffs annoyed, crossing her arms as she shakes her head unhappily at the thought of confiding in them. “Why? Up until recently, we all thought nightcrawlers were a thing of the past but we all know that was a lie,” I chuckle pointing at my neck as evidence. “That’s true,” she hesitates for a moment, carefully choosing her words before she whispers mischievously, “-If I managed to somehow get my hands on some of the books locked up in the Trinity Council’s vault about the subject would you maybe, possibly, be interested in helping me take a look through them?
