Icarus Laughed As He Fell Novels & Stories

he said making her angry. “Then go. Leave me,” she said as she tried to get up from his lap. “My Love, I am just joking,” he said. “Next time, you repeat the same joke, I will run from my wedding,” she said with her narrowed eyes. “As you say, your Grace,” he said as he bowed his head. “Cough” an awkward cough resounded in the hall. “I forgot about you, Lord Lazarus,” Abigail said. “Now I know, why I can’t find Lord Orion in his chambers,” he said seriously.

When he still couldn't find her, he gave up and walked in the opposite direction, elated with the pictures and eager to trade them. "But she's way too hot. Should I blackmail her instead?" he sneered, laughing out at his sick humour. Precipitously, he toppled over something and lands dead on his face, with a screeching cry. "Fuck!" he squawked in pain, but his whole body froze like a glaze of hail in Antarctica when caught the sight of a glorious figure through his peripheral vision. Her hands bridged across her chest, her one leg propped up against the wall while the other leg stretched out. She smiled, tilting her head as her silk black wisps veil her right cheek.

I didn't know why but out of all the boys in school, my heart decided to fall for The Decadence of The Fallen's "Ice Prince" and lead vocalist. A nobody falling for the most popular boy in school had to be the greatest cliché of the century. A sort of cosmic joke that the universe decided to play on a mere mortal like me. And everyone in the whole universe seems to be laughing but me...

I asked in curiosity. "I saw you? I saw you, you were scared. There were these shadow man, but I can't remember anything else. Sometimes pieces of it come back to me in my sleep." He jumped over the fence, reaching his arms out to help me. I knew I wasn't gonna make it over, I took one step up and slipped, the wolf coming behind me to catch my fall tingles rushing through me as I gripped his fur causing him to grumble.

Even though I was mentally prepared, seeing it with my own eyes still sent a sharp, undeniable pain straight through my chest. As the last illusion between us shattered, all I hear was silence.

"Ha, ha, ha! Pero, you could fool the king and queen! But, not me!" "Ha, ha, ha! Little girl, be careful. A hungry beast is blind!" His laugh sounded so eerie before he suddenly drop onto the ground with an eerie smile on his face.

"Senior.. let me tell you about a demigod named Narcissus. Evidently, the idea of narcissism comes from him." Successfully able to stop the banter, Jeremy made Ken too eagerly listen to him. "It is said here in Metamorphosis, that Narcissus fell in love with his reflection on the water and treated all his admirers both Male and Female—of various species, badly. He desired himself and literally kissed his own reflection." "Looks like someone sitting right beside me." Monroe deadpanned, enraging Ken. The banter should have mediated, but seeing the turn of events, Jeremy groaned sadly. Did he make things worse?

CHAPTER 141 DARIUS’S POV The fall didn’t feel like a descent, it felt like the world had simply stopped existing beneath my boots. One second, I was standing on a floor of polished concrete and broken glass; the next, the freezing mountain air was a blow, stripping the breath from my lungs. I didn't let go of Iris. I couldn't. Her fingers were locked with mine in a grip so tight it felt like our bones were fusing. Between us, Ethan was a dead weight, a shadow caught in the middle of our frantic, vertical plunge.

At that moment, the pride and confidence of Westhaven's greatest fighter was shattered, destroyed by the relentless, almost insulting way Carissa wielded her whip. And now, Icarus feared he might not escape tonight. If they got their hands on him... the consequences for tomorrow's negotiations were too dire to even consider. As his thoughts grew more frantic, his focus slipped. He made more and more mistakes, and eventually, there was no way to dodge the whip. It wrapped around him like a serpent, tightening around his neck. With one sharp pull, Carissa yanked him forward. Her hand moved like lightning, ripping the tattered black cloth off his face.

Heimdall booms "C'mon hop on your board and catch him" He obeys and soars into the air on his ice board. He pursues Lust at full speed and begins to throw ice at him.

He is sent falling into the ground and Marcus makes a dive for him. He catches him after some seconds and continues falling with him on his arms. Lust kicks his head, acrobatically and he spins on the air, letting the arms of Lust free. Lust spins a little and regains balance as they continue to fall rapidly into the ground.
