Fallen Novel Characters Novels & Stories

LILA I land on the ground with a thud, blood splattering from my mouth and I hear the crack of my bones from the impact of the fall before I feel the pain. I don’t dare look up to see the furious look on Beta Arden’s face as he closes the gap between us. What must I have possibly done to deserve all this torture? Maybe the moon goddess is punishing me for trying to escape my fate, if I had let myself stay in that cell at least by now i would have died and I would be resting peacefully.

Garrett corrected. I walked among the dead when I could stand. Kael is supporting me. My legs are weak. The world is still tilting. Stopped at each body. Each fallen warrior. Remembering faces. Names when I knew them. A young warrior who'd asked me why I was going into the circle with the monster. Dead. Crushed when the wall collapsed. One of Liana's mobile team. Dead. Throat torn out by corrupted claws. Moonstone warrior who'd sparred with Kael yesterday. Dead. Back broken.

With a whoop Cassi yanked the ball back, returning it to its rotation above her head. We were tired, dirty, hungry and pissed off. Our friends had been cruelly taken from us one after another, our commander killed. And for what? The Officials deal with the faction of the fallen had come roaring to light right before this mess. A bunch of pussy ass idiots who were out to save their skins and their families, at the expense of everyone else. I couldn’t tell which side, if any, had won and it sickened me that we lost so many for potentially nothing. It was only by chance Cassi and I were still alive and standing, and even then we were on our last reserves, having pulled ourselves together to hel

I reached through dimensions, grabbed the five souls burning themselves out for others, and pulled. POV: Maya One moment, nuclear fire. The next, falling. I hit ground that wasn't ground. Soft. Yielding. Alive somehow. My body was broken, power completely depleted, life force barely a flicker. Through the bond, I felt Alexei beside me. Also broken. Also dying. Through the other bond, Seraphina. Gasping. Fading. We'd made it through. Somehow. But at what cost? POV: Elena I saw them appear and fall. My daughters. All three of them collapsed in a heap. Alexei. Seraphina. All of them are barely alive.

Their bodies, once strong and resilient, were now broken and battered. Nicholas's gaze wandered across the carnage, his heart heavy with grief. He recognized each face, each name etched in his memory. There was Marcus, his trusted advisor; Lila, the pack's youngest member; Jake, the loyal protector and… Fiona. His heart sank immediately. He had brought her into this, he had promised to protect her just like he had done with the others. They had given up their entire life for the cause, and now they all lay dead before him.

Her hazel eyes gleamed with a dangerous excitement and she swiftly shifted and shot through the rogue whose chest pushed out and he looked toward the woods before he fell on his back. They were taking their souls. The humans and the Rogues, everyone was falling and those who weren’t already dead soon fell like dominos. Screams rippled through the air around us, no blood or gore, they weren’t suffering, they were paying a debt for their deeds. When the thud from the last fallen warrior sounded, the Demons rose high and went their separate way. All but one. Zade emerged in his glorious human form and walked over the bodies. A gust of wind pushed up behind me and I knew that Darian stood there.

Back in the physical world, Novel’s body collapsed beside Kitty, as he coughed up a splash of blood before slipping into complete unconsciousness. Inside his mind, Alexei faced the dark, monstrous shadow of the Myth standing before him. “You can’t use me for your revenge!” Alexei roared, charging the beast with everything he had. “My mate isn't dead! Give me back my body!” With a final, desperate strike, Alexei slammed into the dark entity, and darkness took him completely. _____ One Year Later It was Novel’s university graduation day. She stood near the podium in her cap and gown, a bright smile on her face as she chatted and snapped photos with her classmates, completely oblivious to the f

And then August followed, slower than the rest, like he was already a few drinks in, his movements just a little off. Three of them, my jaw clenched as I watched their annoying faces laughing and chanting their team names as they pushed in. One was missing, my eyes scanned behind them without thinking, but he wasn’t there. Asher, the leader of the quads. I looked away quickly, forcing myself to focus on the table again, but it was too late. My chest had already tightened, that familiar feeling crawling back up like it had never really left. They didn’t recognize me, though I knew they wouldn’t. Back then, I wasn’t like this…

"Some loves don't end in a fairytale wedding or a quiet house in the countryside, they end in a pool of smoke and blood, leaving you alone in the dark with the ghost of the only person who ever made you feel human." The smoke in the collapsed corridor tastes like sulfur and ash, burning my throat with every jagged breath I force into my lungs. My father’s men are closing in, their heavy tactical boots crunching over the shattered glass and burning timber behind me, but I can't move my feet. I am frozen in the ruins, staring down at Liam’s motionless body sprawled across the scorched concrete. His chest doesn't rise. The blood pooling beneath his tactical vest has already begun to cool agains

Then reality returned. Quickly. "Everyone okay?" Damon called. Groans answered from throughout the wreckage. Cassian's voice emerged first. "I think my soul left my body." Good. If Cassian was complaining, he was alive. Nova appeared next. Covered in dirt. Covered in blood. Mostly someone else's. "Still breathing." Seraphine followed. Then Mira. Then Hale. Then Isabella. Bruised. Shaken. Alive. Everyone was alive. Barely.
