"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. The library was a cathedral of lost knowledge. The ceiling was so high it was lost in darkness, and the walls were lined with thousands of leather-bound books that smelled of aged p

Somehow I ended up climbing stairs and reached the third floor and here I pushed open a random door and ended up in the library. Just great. This is where more sheep come to hide from the popular sheep! But it was almost empty except for the huge rows of shelves filled with early book editions that would make the National Library jealous. There were so many books and many of them were leather-bound. Somehow the architect had made the library like a big sphere and the center isle cut it into two halves and that diameter led to the librarian’s desk. The librarian was a sleepy grey-haired woman with glasses who had her nose buried in a voluminous book. I slipped inside one of the isles to hide

This is ridiculous. Greta chuckled. "Well, that's the rule. As a matter of fact, all the books in the library contain some information you couldn't get anywhere. Of course, information varies on every floor. That's why status was important to enter the library. The higher your status, the higher the floor you could access. There are 12 floors and the top two floors need a Royalty Membership Card and as the name suggests, only the royalties can enter that floor." Information. My instinct told me I could find clues about Leonora Moon in this library. I must enter this library no matter what.

That must have been the reason she was friendly to Rachel. Rachel grinned as she got her library pass from her. "Morning sleeps are the worst kind of career annihilators." She could hear Mrs Wickham laugh softly as she walked past, scanning the large, beautiful library for her favorite spot to slide into. The library was spacious and well equipped with books upon books. Illuminated with florescent lights, cooled by air conditioners, and monitored by CCTV's. She zoomed past a few students into the hallway of bookshelves. Running her hands unconsciously on the well stacked books, she walked through the spaces between the giant bookshelves.

The woman then walked to the right and sat on one of the chairs that were there. "Wow. It's my first time entering a large library like this. Usually maybe I just walked into a bookstore and bought a novel there to read at home, "Bella muttered. The woman was busy looking at this huge library area. The books here are neatly arranged and lined up on the shelves that have been provided. Really awesome. Plus, the condition of this library is very calm and conducive. It is suitable for her who really likes reading books. Bella shook her head softly. The woman looked back at the book that she had put on the table. She immediately focused on hers original purpose here. Reading book.

I stepped inside and was greeted by the musty scent of ancient pages and wood polish. The library attendant, a frail old woman with silver hair tucked into a tight bun, looked up from behind the desk. Her eyes were sharp, even though age had stolen the rest of her youth. I’d heard she was a respected elder in the pack, a widow who lost her mate decades ago and chose to serve knowledge rather than grieve in silence. “I’m looking for the section on witches,” I said gently. Her eyes narrowed a bit. “That’s not a topic people ask about lightly.”

And just like that a blurry voice and an image that she assumed that was part of her memory appeared in her mind. 'A woman's worth is more than a man could never work for. A woman is a powerful person who gives light. A woman has been given a womb and a man's part and yet she can give life. A woman has been given a house and yet she made it a home that is full of warmth. A woman is someone who was given a simple thing but can give back precious treasures. A woman has never been worthless. Always remember you are a woman. And you are worth it"

The woman stood behind the podium; her old, but unworked hands, smoothing out the precious pages. “Welcome to my library,” The woman said, her eyes flashing to them. “Can I help you find something?” The librarian had a reputation about her, stories whispered on sleepless nights. Her name was Claudia, and she had been in the library for as long as anyone could remember. Claudia’s book held more than the location of library books; it was said to hold every answer imaginable. The volume was magic; so much so that it was a part of the woman’s soul, and only she could read its pages. To every other eye, it was completely and utterly blank.

Zach says as we begin walking to the library again. We walk in, waving at the woman who is standing guard at the front window like someone might decide to steal some books. Since Piper and Zach seem to know where they’re going, we follow them back to a secluded corner of the library. It’s darker back here but there’s a table set up and a young woman is there with a computer in front of her, typing away at lightening speed.
