The Librarian's Daughter The Story of Abi VanHaven

by M.M. Gavillet

“She tricked me,” Nate looked down at the counter. “She had the power of a siren and she made me a fool.” His voice trembled.

  I crossed my arms shifted my weight and glared at him.

  He looked up meeting my unsatisfied eyes. “I thought she might have insight to Victoria. Sirens and Victoria have always had a bond and I thought that was a good place to start. And if you would’ve watched a little longer you would’ve seen me push her away. Do you think I want to hurt Meg? I’ve come this far in protecting her do you think I would throw all that away on some siren?!”

  I stepped away and sat on the couch burying my face in my hands. I could feel Kelan sit next to me as I thought of Meg. All this time Nate had been protecting her from heartache and death. I felt bad for everything that I ever thought or assumed Nate was. I would’ve never guessed that he had a noble bone anywhere in him.

  “It says Glass Room, Apartment 10A and 10B.” I looked at the card the sylph guardians gave me. The lettering looked to be hand written and in silver letters that nearly faded into the white paper.

  “The conference room—really. I would’ve never guessed they would handle everything there.” Jack took the card from me and examined it. “Oh, well leave it to be decided among the guardians and librarians…it’s like a fart in a skillet—never know what they’re going to do.”
