Icarus Has Fallen Novels & Stories

Nobody celebrated, nor did they try to give chase, instead they spent the night cleaning up. Ari in the Falling Oasis as Xasha called it collapsed in exhaustion, "Ari," Mila screamed as she caught her falling little figure. "You did a good job, you need to rest now." "No," Ari said as she struggled to her feet, "take me to restricted block 94." "Why?" Cecile asked.

The last blue beam faded into the night. An uneasy silence settled over the Carter Center. No one spoke. Everyone stared toward the eastern horizon where the light had vanished only moments before. Elias Arden lowered his head. “The First Hidden Sanctuary has fallen.” His voice carried genuine sorrow. Not triumph. Not relief. Sorrow. ⸻ Marcus crossed his arms. “If you’re telling the truth…” He looked directly at Elias. “…then who destroyed it?” Elias didn’t answer immediately.

"He has, but you blocked him. And he knows this mess is his fault. He's too embarrassed to face you." I fell silent, feeling conflicted. Even though Elliot had failed me, it felt bad to see him fall like this. At the same time, I knew this was the price he had to pay. He had chosen Yvette over me, and now he had to face the consequences. "Where is Yvette?" "Rumors say Sorothspire, but we don't know which country. The police are still looking."

Simon quickly dialed Irina’s phone number, but no one answered the call. “What is it?” Camillia walked out of their room. When she noticed his dark expression, she gently took his hand. “Who upset you?” “Irina’s gone to Mucannaiss,” he said coldly. Camillia blinked but chuckled at the next moment. “She loves you too much to attend our wedding. So, she ran away as far as she could.” She leaned against his shoulder and caressed her still-flat belly. “But maybe it’s for the best. Her absence is better for our baby.”

I mutter as I throw my leg over the windowsill. I hold on tight as I swing my other leg out, then find my footing between the holes in the trellis. Slowly, I start to move down, searching for spaces to hold onto. Suddenly, I hear the wood snap. I suck in a breath, then the trellis pulls away from the house, making me shriek. No! I climb down further, but the wood must be worn with age, and it gives way. Another shriek escapes me as I fall. I hit the ground so hard my teeth clatter, and a sharp pain flares through my right hand and wrist.

"Be very careful, darling. You might be treading water now, but there are always beasts lurking in the darkness." He took another step, his head tilting as though he could hear the frantic pace of my heart. I was frozen, completely still against the railing as his predatory gaze slid slowly over my face. "Those beasts would love nothing more than to get their hands on you." He murmured, his voice smooth like silk, sweeter than honey, and more cunning than a snake. "Welcome to the Iridescence Pack, Rachel." Apollo's hand reached out, pushing against my chest. I felt myself topple backwards, my mouth opened in a silent scream as I fell over the railing and into the open sky.

“You don’t even compare…” “You know what. I never wanted to be like him and I can never be like he was.” Jasmine’s hand started to glow hotly and started to shine through his body. He hissed as he exploded into dust causing Jasmine to scream and turn her head. The world started to turn again and the clouds started to move on to release the sunshine as it became brighter as if a huge storm hadn’t just hit randomly. Gabriel ran over to her, touching her hand that was still frozen as if Judas was still there. She was shaken up, but was fearless nonetheless.

Locked on the bits of information Jonas had given me. He thinks I’m damaging Mathis. That Mathis is getting weaker. The thought of going back to him made my stomach tight. I yearned to beg him for a night of reprieve. I was exhausted and the thought of going back was nightmarish. On the other hand I couldn’t imagine sleeping in my bed and knowing that Udora might be enduring whatever fate, Mathis had in mind for me. I can’t go back to WitchFall. My gaze wandered to the Fortress on the hill. With its peaking towers. Leering at me like the dark face of some monstrous creature.

Kronos gritted his teeth as he listened to Icarus' breathing, and the flames hungrily devour his village. "Icarus listen, you're going to be alright. Just stay with me." “ Goodbye...Kronos. I'll see you...in Takira." Icarus said before his eyes went lifeless, and his chest stopped. "Icarus? Icarus?!" Kronos shouted, tears forming in his silver eyes. No response came from the boy's body. Kronos's tears began to fall as he gently set the child down and closed Icarus' eyes. So...the Ishtar Dynasty has betrayed us, have they ? They'll rue this day. He looked down at the body and placed the small figurine in the boy's hand.

Before the vampires came back, they had to get out of there. Icarus spread his wings and flew high in the air. At this moment, Rion was baffled upon seeing the hole stretching 1000 meters down there. The Castle of the Vampire that previously stood majestically was gone. Not even its ashes remained. Not long after, Icarus passed through the portal and came out of the cave. They were immediately greeted by Roul and the others who were just about to return to pick them up. “Thank goodness, the king and queen are safe,” said Kaven with a sweet smile on his face.
