The discovery sent a shiver of delight through Amelia. She ran a hand along the rough stone of the wall. She'd followed the whispers of the house, the drafts that seemed to emanate from a specific spot in the cellar. The stone panel opened easily, and she knew she'd found something special.

It was a hidden library. Bookshelves lined the walls, filled with ancient tomes and leather-bound volumes. A comfortable armchair sat near a roaring fireplace. She squealed in delight, wanting to explore every book, to spend hours and hours in this haven.
