Defiance Of The Fall Novels & Stories

She checked the nearby surveillance footage, but soon found that I hadn't shown up in any of the footage. "He even knows to avoid the blind spots of the cameras, just like the rat he is. I doubt I will be able to find him!" I was utterly speechless by her behavior. I couldn't help but ask the system, "I can barely remember what Natalie used to be like after so many worlds. Was she always this arrogant and foolish? Then, why did I go through all that suffering? Does she even deserve it?" The system was silent for a moment before replying, "Do you really want to give up now? You are just one step away from the end. If she falls in love with you now, she will remember everything, and the real h

I didn't have a room. "Skylar!" Hearing his voice had my heart racing with fear, I walked down the stairs to meet him in the hallway. There was a door under the stairs, probably to the basement which is where they made me sleep last time. My step-father stood there with the door open. Suddenly he shoved me and I slipped, falling down each step. Rolo barked and growled at him, earning a kick for himself before he too got locked in the basement with me. I swear I heard him lock it with a key. There were three lights down here, they were fairly dim, the floor had been carpeted thankfully, a single mattress lay in one corner of the room no bedframe, a dog bed next to it with the dogs food and wa

His wings still out, tensed, and ready, the rest of us holding our weapons. He moved so fast I didn’t even see him. Sliding past the others as fluid as water going around rocks in a stream he came for me, I felt his arm snag my waist and my feet left the Earth. I heard Devon’s shots fire and Kenneth soared into the air in pursuit. Cassi let out a scream and I heard the others calling my name as we ascended, until they were just specks. Kenneth closing in, aiming his crossbow at Shamshiel’s wings, his purple wings beating as he tried desperately to keep up, his face contorted in anguish as he realized he would not be able to help me. In the blink of an eye Shamshiel closed his wings around us

I voiced out. "And whose fault was that?" she said glaring at me. Your psychotic mind, I mumbled beneath my breath, just then she decided to drop one of her crutches, she tried to make it look like an accident but failed miserably. She's going to be the death of me, mumbled before adding a string of curse words to the statement. I hurried over to her and supported her falling figure by putting my hand around her waist leading her to the nearest table. I ignore how right it felt to place my hand around her waist or how she seemed to fit perfectly in my arms every time I carry her. I went to pick up the fallen crutch and made my way back to her.

Not every fall… --- Is caused by weakness. --- Not every defeat… --- Means failure. --- Sometimes— --- The strongest ones fall… --- Because they refuse to bend. --- The core was breaking. --- Not slowly anymore. --- Not quietly. --- Violently. --- Cracks tore through the space around them— --- Splintering light, distorting structure, pulling everything toward collapse. --- Time— --- Was gone. --- “We end this now!” Victor’s voice cut through the chaos.

For if you fall The realms fall with you. Tears spilled freely now, blurring the words. She could hear her mother in each line, the fierce edge of defiance, the aching softness beneath. She knew. Even then. That Elara would be the storm to end the silence. There is more.

One must yield. My heart slammed. Aria’s voice trembled slightly. “Yield what?” The answer came instantly. **Dominion.** Kael’s jaw tightened. “No.” Lyra’s eyes flashed. “Never.” Darius stepped forward. “You see? This is why four cannot hold.” The energy pulsed again. Stronger. More insistent. **One must yield. Or all will fall.** Seren’s voice echoed faintly. “Don’t let it choose for you…”

But doesn’t shatter. The sky groans. You destabilize creation. “I refuse your version of it!” The courtyard fractures completely. Stone lifts into the air. Cars flip. The seam descends another meter. This isn’t persuasion anymore. This is forced ascension. Aidan’s body lifts off the ground slightly. Pulled upward. His energy clashes with the golden lattice. Not explosion. Grinding. Two structures colliding. “You don’t get to take him!” I shout. The voice shifts. He is not yours.

OLIVIA We stand there, engaged in a staring contest. Of course I lose because in my defense his eyes aren’t really the type you’d like to look into for a long time. It feels like they’ll drag you into the plainness of them. “I’m out of here,” I mutter under my breath and try to push past him. He’s not even trying to be gentle at this point, he pushes my shoulders hard enough that I stumble and fall to the floor. It hurt, really bad.
