BOOK after book was a bust. Nothing about demons, weres, or Others seemed to exist in his grandfather’s collection. Simon had been through most of the shelves by the time the sun started to set. He flipped on another lamp and scanned through the books again.

He started to reach for a history book when he paused, remembering that his grandfather didn’t keep all his books here in the library. His journals were out in the workroom, where he could easily take notes on his herbs and other projects.

Simon hurried to the room, enjoying the clean smell of drying plants in the air. It comforted him, made him remember all those days at his grandfather’s side preparing the plants for drying, crushing them into usable bits, and storing them for later use. This felt right. If Grandfather didn’t have an actual book on the topic, he’d surely taken notes over the years of his experiences and observations.

His notebooks were in an antique cabinet that had once served as an armoire. A faded mirror, speckled with age, still lined one of the doors. Simon jumped when he saw his reflection, a moment of panic overtaking him. He laughed when he realized he was staring at himself and not some stranger who’d come to steal him away.

Simon had kept his grandfather’s habit of keeping the cabinet locked up, even though the key was hanging just inside the door of the room on a hook. He carefully got the doors opened, wiggling the key just so to convince the worn lock to release its hold, and stared at the pile of leather-bound books inside.

The gardening notes were separated from his general notes according to shelves. The topmost row held all his gardening secrets. But it was the next batch of books Simon was more interested in. He had never read his grandfather’s personal journals, even years after his death. They were his grandfather’s private thoughts, and he’d never felt right about reading through them.

Now, though, a shiver of excitement poured through him. The answer was here. He could feel it. His grandfather had left him these books for a reason, had insisted on leaving this cabin and its contents for Simon’s use, and for the thousandth time, Simon was so grateful for his planning. He grabbed the first few journals and sat down on the floor. He flipped through the first one quickly, scanning the pages for any key words. Demon, werewolf, Other, dark magic. He looked for anything that could help. The stack of journals grew by his side as he flipped through year after year of notes.

Finally, Simon found what he was searching for. His mouth fell open in shock as he read, and his eyes filled with tears that rolled down his cheeks unnoticed. Simon couldn’t believe he’d been so wrong for so long.
