Protection From Arrows Fate Novels & Stories

IF it is even open slightly, it is enough to break the seal, negating the protection around the house. Standing up, I watch as the horseman removes another arrow from his quiver. Slamming the window all the way shut, I feel the wards fall back into place. The next arrow deflects itself off of the wards, propelling back to the sender. The arrow misses him narrowly. Looking up, he gives me one last stare before turning around and walking away, taking the shadows with him. The sky grows warmer, and lighter as the shadows around the house lift. “He’s gone,” I inform Faye. She takes a deep breath of relief.

flashback Kayla made it to this handsome stranger and his dog before I did, but he thankfully held on to her before she could touch the animal. “Woah, princess, you don't just touch any dog like that, okay? It can hurt you.” He explained, tone gentle. “But I wanna touch it.” Kayla pressed stubbornly, her mouth taking on that cute pout most people found hard to say no to.

They were fifty yards into the ravine when the first arrow flew. It struck the snow inches from Natasha's horse, a black-fletched shaft that quivered in the frozen crust. The second and third followed immediately, aimed at the warriors flanking the column. One took a Shadow Fang fighter in the shoulder, spinning him from his saddle with a grunt of pain. "Shields!" Marcus roared, swinging his own from his back and positioning himself between the archers and the treaty bearer.

Verna hissed but stayed at the rear of the charging forces. Arrows flew to the air and hit the imperial soldiers, but they seemed to be invulnerable to the projectiles that fell harmless to the ground. For some reason, the whole army of imperial soldiers seemed to have gained some mantle of protection that the darting arrows were unable to penetrate. Eldion looked at the glowing necklace that the imperial officer raised to the air and knew that it was the source of their protection.

I snapped, my senses on high alert, searching for where the threat was coming from. It was chaos out there. A band of armed troublemakers had blocked the road, and our cavalry soldiers were locked in direct combat. I jumped into the fight, taking enemies down with precision. I had to protect the Prince at all costs—though it was starting to feel odd how often we were getting ambushed lately, even if we knew there was a threat. Finally, when it seemed like the situation was under control, I heard a sharp sound. A sudden movement caught my eye—a stray arrow flying right at the carriage. Without hesitation, I threw myself in front of it. Pain tore through my shoulder as the arrow lodged there,

Crown archers unleashed a volley of silver-tipped arrows from the ridge that rained down like deadly stars. One arrow grazed Lyra’s shoulder, burning as it passed. She hissed in pain, and Kael’s roar shook the valley. He spun toward the ridge, eyes blazing with fury, but before he could charge, the lead guardian moved with surprising speed and positioned itself as a living shield, its massive body absorbing the next volley. The ancient beings had chosen. They would protect the heir. Lyra realized the terrible truth as the guardians drained the land's power and her movements grew more labored inside her.

White light shoot from the tip of their wands and this white light combined created a barrier of light that act as their shield The sound of the arrows coming in contact with the protective barrier sounded like the pattering of the rain in the roof of a gazebo. Also, every time that an arrow hits the barrier, something that looks like a ripple of water appears on their protective barrier and it will be followed by a series of vibration. This vibration can be felt within their wands and it only makes it harder for them to sustain the barrier. Nonetheless, they still persevere as to make sure that their protective shield won't be breached by any means. It continued like that for a few more min

Just one command. Protection. And with that one word, a magic barrier formed all round us. Every direction I wanted to be protected, just became surrounded with a thin layer of a large shield. With just one glance and it became saved from the harsh release of arrows. I knew that because as the arrows flew by, they just stopped by the invisible barrier that now surrounded us. Again came another arrow, but it just swung by and hit the piece of shield that protected us, before falling down.

How could she use that without actually puncturing me? I looked over at Enzo who didn’t seem as concerned as I was, so I knew I had to trust them. She got into her stance, and I did the same. Soon, Enzo was giving us the signal to start, and an arrow was flying directly at me. In a panic, I used the dagger to shield myself from the arrow and the arrow hit the dagger in a clink and fell to the ground. A couple more arrows were flying directly toward me, and I did the same exact thing, watching as the arrows bounced off the dagger and fell to the ground.

I muttered I turned around and looked at his shocked face, he widen his eyes, he looked lost just like I thought. Perhaps he thought I will never make it in life. "Don’t be shocked, Mr. Rayan Faiz," I said "Afraah" He sighed I rolled my eyes "It’s Miss Afraah for you." I corrected "I’m so happy to_" I raised a hand "I’m not here for chit-chat." I cut him off, turning back I looked at my bodyguard and nodded. He instantly understood and brought out a bag, he handed the bag over to Rayan
