Chapter 61: Threatening a Mageling

Hayden’s POV

“Did you manage to find anything on the thing that attacked Eleonore?” I asked Logan as I entered the main area of the research library. It was a large, cavernous thing built by many of my predecessors and added to over time.

It held information on nearly every incident of supernatural beings or occurrences they had gathered over time. This was one of the most important aspects of this compound. Logan and Mason were situated in the middle of the library, where a large oak table sat.

Various books and pages scattered around them, each flipped to pages of more and more ghastly creatures. Their faces twisted and bodies mangled, yet none of them were like the shadowed figure of the thing Rhett and I had seen when we entered Eleonore’s mind.

Mason asked him for the books. I looked at the book he gave me, turning the pages as I read through its contents. They looked ugly, but something was missing.

“No, these aren’t… have you checked any of the other books?”
