Chapter 115

Damien’s POV con’d

I was thinking over all Zane had said as Alora pulled us off in the direction of the willow, once at the base of the tree, she reaches up and pushes on a very distinctive knot in the tree, and a barley perceptible door opened leading inside the tree, to a massive library, that spiraled up and up. 2

The tree was a hollowed out circle in the center, the book shelves lining the ‘walls’ from a the ‘floor’ of the tree to the ceiling. Each single story level of shelves had wide wrap around balconies in front of it, with four ladders that were attached to the shelves and slid side to side for each. 2

This place had magic in every single nook and cranny. I saw a painting of Lucian and Luna cuddling on the bench out front, in a cut out of the first floor shelving right across from the door way. It felt like this place had been dormant for a while and was sad about it. There was a large carved circle of magic in the middle of the floor, I wondered what the spell was for.

I hadn’t known this place existed, when she said the mansions library, I had assumed she meant the three story library, that was actually in the mansion. How had this come to be here, Alora had let go of my hand when we got in here. I look around at the shelves as she goes up the single massive back and

forth stairway that went all the way to the top balcony, she stopped at the third floor. O

Looking at the cases I noticed all the shelves had carvings etched into them, as did the few rectangle top tables set in front of the few couches, with two chairs one on each end of the tables. There were only ten of these seating areas. Lucian and Luna’s carvings continued in here on these shelves, and on one of the seating sets, the others looked similar, but each carving was different.

That’s when I noticed the pattern, for each floor there was a painting of a couple, each one had different names, and sometimes the male had blue or green eyes, but otherwise they all looked almost exactly like Lucian and Luna, like Alora and I, with those same mating marks.

One table for each floor, one painting for each floor, the carvings belonging to the couples in each painting. The first floor represented our first life, the other floors after, represent all of our past reincarnations, where we met and mated.
