(Warning this book can be read as a stand alone but has a book before it called The Goddess of wisdom and creation.) "Ariella are you ready?" My father asked for the hundred time. I could only roll my eyes. Nomatter how many times I told him I would come down when I was ready he kept coming to my bathroom door. I mean I knew I was running late but I couldn't help that I wanted to look perfect for my first day at the most sought out school in all realms. Plus I couldn't help it that my curls were nearly impossible to tame. Just looking in the mirror was giving me anxiety. The light make up I had looked perfect but it was my hair I was struggling with. "Ariella school started 10 minutes ago." My father yelled from down stairs. He sounded annoyed and that was all I needed to snap out of the never ending brushing that I was doing. I couldn't mess this up. Even though my hair was a frizzy mess because off all the brushing, I had no choice but to put my brush down. For years I had tried to convince my father to let me go to school but I was forbidden. I couldn't mess this up. You see I'm not your average Goddess. I'm far from it. When I was born I was missing one thing, my powers. Turns out before my mother died while giving birth to me, she took every drop of my power trying to save herself. So not only am I powerless but I'm also motherless. It's kind of ironic that my father was the God of Good fortune and we ended up with so much bad fortune in one day. "Ariella." My father snapped me out of my thoughts with a bang on the door. "I'm coming." I rushed out. One last glance at myself in the mirror and I was running out my perfectly organized room. I woke up hours earlier to make sure my outfit was perfect and makeup was just right. How it took me every minute to get ready was beyond me. My hair seemed to have a mind of its own and nomatter how many times I straightened it, my curls still made an appearance. It was frustrating. "25 minutes late. Maybe you should just stay home instead of going to the academy. I don't need letters sent for your tardiness." My father threatened as I ran down the stairs taking two steps at a time. The unladylike cry that I made said it all. "It won't happen again." I rushed out. I couldn't stay home any longer. I needed friends and to see more than my back yard and the inside of our two story house. My father gave me a scrutinizing look before he was sighing and shaking his head. I couldn't help the little hop from foot to foot I made. I needed this. My excitement was so thick it was probably contagious. "Let's go than." He sighed as he grabbed my arm. One last look at our simple living room was all I got before I was heading out. This was it. My new start. Butterflies filled me as I realized that I wouldn't see my father for a long time. Unlike mortals we didn't get breaks to go home. 4 years of being at the academy and no going home. Unless we had dinners at the academy or ceremonies I wouldn't get to hug my father or laugh with him for a long time. Would I remember my very pink room and bright white bathroom? Or would I forget the way my father's eyes crinkled when he was happy even though he was a God and wasn't suppose to have any wrinkles. Would I remember the bright smile he gave me every time I remembered something he taught me? "Are you okay because we are here?" He whispered pulling me out of my second guessing thoughts. It would be fine. I wanted and needed this. I looked up to a huge white and golden building. "Its only one building?" I asked in astonishment instead of answering his question. How could I, I was far from okay. The pillers that were at the front entrance were huge. The building looked as big as a mortal football field. It was big but was it big enough? "It's magically infused. It's bigger in the inside. You'll love it." He stated as he dragged me forward towards the big double doors. It seemed like he had turned around and was more excited about this transition. His eyes twinkled as he looked at the building that looked more like a government building than a school. The excitement I felt earlier was replaced with fear and anticipation. I dragged my feet slowly as we walked up the the building steps that seemed to get bigger the more we ascended the steps. My father had to teleport us up half way up. Did they not account for Gods that didn't have powers? I mean yes I was one of the only Goddesses born without but there were also God's who lost their powers because of breaking laws. I heard the laws here were strict and the high king was brutal and unforgiving. Never in existence did dark rule until the high king took over everything the moment he killed his wife. He was ruthless and my father said he was not one to be crossed. If I seen him I was to go the other way. I definitely would be taking his warning to heart. "Ready." My dad broke me out my thoughts again. I definitely had to get use to paying more attention. The huge door opened before I could reach for the handle. My eyes went big as I looked through the doors. When my father said it was amazing he wasn't lying. Anticipation took over completely as I looked at the open courtyard with green grass that was a radiant dark green. The buildings that scattered all around were a whitish gray and made this school yard look older than it was. The high king had this created alittle after I was born. So it was no more than 18 years old.My book is officially done with the first part. The last chapter is 322 and a new part 2 to the book hits 323 focused on a different character. I don’t want to spoil anything so I am letting everyone know the first part is finished and can be read alone. Second part needs the first part through
Ariellas pov The courtyard was completely empty. I had read a lot of mortal books on schools and this was definitely not what I envisioned. "Everyone's already in class. Let's go." My father whispered. Why he was being quiet when nobody was around us made no sense. It was beyond quiet and I definitely didn't like it. "Do you think we are the only ones late?" I asked as we walked though the courtyard. There's no way I could be the only one late right. "Here." My father said right as he teleported us out. I actually wasn't a fan of teleporting. It made me feel funny. I preferred to walk to enjoy the scenery. Something that I could thank on being powerless. My father created things for me in the back yard to mimic different realms but it wasn't the same as the real thing. It would never be the same. I always thought it was amazing but now that I seen the real thing, I refused to go back to my back yard unless it was just a back yard. No more fake beaches or forests. I wanted the r
Ariellas Pov "Nobody told me that." I whispered. I felt defeated. I was so excited to come here but I forgot about my dad. Hes been so supportive and always there for me. "Let's go." Blake demanded as he grabbed me. I couldn't protest because we were teleporting out of the main office instantly. "Oh. I see we have a new student. If I'm not mistaken this Is Ariella. I want everyone to make her feel welcomed." A scratchy voice said alittle to excitedly. Her enthusiasm did nothing for my anxiety. The older Goddess with big brown eyes and chestnut colored hair had a huge smile on her face. It was like she was a huge bottle of sunshine. Her happiness did nothing for me. "Go ahead, you can sit down in the empty seat." Her scratchy voice hurt my ears more than it helped ease me into my transition. I slowly walked forward and looked around at all the unfamiliar faces. Most of them were smiling and smirking. Whispers could be heard but not understood. It was like walking into a rainbow
Ariellas pov The God that was standing in front just stared at our table. I knew that he was watching Blake but I still couldn't get rid of the feeling that he was staring at me. Observing me. Did he know I was powerless? Was I some kind of weird creature to everyone here? Zavier looked at our table one more time before he was looking at everyone. He held his head up high, like he was looking down at everyone. Nobody had the relaxed demeanor that they had when we walked in earlier. Everyone was on edge. It felt like there was alot of tension in the room. "As most of you may know I'm the God of the Future and I can see things before they happen. So let that be a reminder that I will know before you decided to magically learn something and the punishment will be severe. The high kings laws are not to be looked at lightly. Just like skipping classes or leaving all together." Zavier stated right as he looked at me with a raised eyebrow. Did he know I wanted to lea
Ariellas pov It felt like my word was crashing as Goddesses were chuckling. I could only keep my head buried deep in my book. If I could I would submerge into it "Ariella. Ariella." Blake snapped at me as he shook me. Why was he yelling like something was wrong? I didn't want to but I peaked at him with one eye. He was looking at me with a raised eyebrow and I was more confused than ever. "Did you plan on sleeping throughout the whole day?" He asked with a smirk. Sleep? "I mean I'm all for sleeping but I definitely don't think you want to get punished on your first day." The laugh he gave me had me slowly sitting up. I looked down at the dry book confused. I couldn't stop my hand from rubbing at my very dry face and eyes. I was sleep but I didn't feel like I was sleep. I looked over at Blake who was now standing.. A sweep of my eyes over the room had me sighing with relief. It was a dream. Everyone was gone. How I sleep without realizing it was beyond m
Ariellas pov Aries looked at me for a second before he was looking at everyone else. His teeth grinded together the more he took everyone in. "I know you think you are being funny and that I don't know but I've been teaching for the last two years and I know what you are laughing at. And let me warn all of you if you laugh at my handwriting or even speak of it you will be crying by the end of the day." Aries snapped at everyone. I paled alittle as I watched him closely. He slowly walked to his black desk and sat down. His eyes scanned the room continuously and I swear that every time they got to me they paused for a second. Maybe it was my paranoia but it felt like he had a vendetta against me. His relaxed personality couldn't hide the beast that he truly was. I really wanted to ask the God next to me what he thought but it was like I was being intimidated to keep forward even without him saying a word. I felt trapped in my seat during the whole class period even when Aries loo
Ariellas pov "This beautiful Goddess right here is Ariella The new Goddess and I am the dick that never introduced myself. Ace is the name but the ladies love to call me Aye." Ace joked as his eyes twinkled up at me. "Nobody calls you Aye loser." The Goddess next to him who had dark blue hair laughed as she playfully hit him. The way he looked at her with hooded eyes told me that he was definitely a player. It was fine. I was definitely not looking for anyone to date. "I'm sorry I'm so rude. My name's Rosie." The dark blue haired Goddess with the yellow eyes smiled. Rosie and Ace. That was easy. "Ariella but he already told you that." I softly spoke. The way she made her brows jump had me confused and the smile that came with it was even more confusing. "Well I'm Derek and this here is jazzie." The God with regular brown hair said as he messed up the blond Goddesses hair. So many names to remember. "Well as long as you don't try to talk to my boyfriend we can be friends an
Ariellas pov Relaxation hit me fast. I felt free. At some point Ace had lifted me up and had me sitting on his lap. Whatever they gave me was working wonders. "You are so beautiful." Ace whispered next to my ear. The feeling of being against his body was nice. Comforting. The tickle of his voice hitting my ear had me shivering. My sensations were all over the place. It felt like I was getting cold even with the sun heating up the garden. The warm breeze should have helped heat me up but it did the complete opposite. Every time it hit me I moved closer to Ace who didn't seem to mind. Everything around us was going so slow, so serene. I see why they inhaled that straw. A rough hand rested on my upper thigh pulling my attention to my leg. Ace was making small circles on my leg. Part of me knew I should probably move but I was too lazy and comfortable. I felt his hand go up higher but I was too relaxed to even talk. My mouth felt heavy and my body did to. "So soft." Ace whispered
Ariellas pov "But they, they inhaled the straw too." I rushed to defend myself. I couldn't get in trouble if everyone else did it to right? Alax chucked before shaking his head. "A straw you say?" He asked like what I said was the funniest thing he ever heard. "This. This is not a joke. I didn't know what it was and I won't do it again." I stuttered. The realization that I might make my dad suffer was taking away the fun of having friends and being here all together. "It doesn't matter, you did it and if you were to go to your next class like this consequences would've been severe. Drugs are forbidden on campus." I felt light headed as I realized what I had done. Drugs? I had heard of drugs but all I knew was mortals took them to get high and sometimes they made them do crazy things. Every kind had a different effect and some could be deadly. The high king actually made them illegal recently to any low rank God. "Am I going to get arrested?" I asked as I came to realize my mis
