Soaring To New Heights Novels & Stories

I had more important things to concentrate on. It was a long flight, made more difficult by my inexperience with flying, and it took me some time to master riding the updrafts, but when I finally got the hang of it. I loved it. Soaring up and down through the clear, starlit sky was magical and incredibly beautiful. I was mesmerised by the sheer beauty of the world around me, thanks to my heightened senses. It calmed my anger and helped me to focus on what I was heading toward.

A smile spreads. Slow. I already know what to take. I already know who to hurt. I step forward. Shadows curl around my feet. Lift me. Carry me upward, not climbing, not struggling but rising. Effortless. Controlled. New. And as I ascend— One thought settles clearly in my mind. They think this is a game. They think they’re winning. They think I’m behind. They’re wrong. I won’t fall. I won’t hesitate and I definitely won’t lose.

His alpha instincts kicked in, sensing Theo's every need and ensuring his son felt nothing but joy and wonder in this moment.

Chapter 103 Proud Parents Abi soared through the skies, her wings beating effortlessly as she chased after Niklaus and Oliver. Her beast form was smaller than Niklaus', but she made up for it with her agility and quick reflexes. She darted and weaved through the air, her little roars of excitement echoing off the buildings. As she flew, Abi felt a sense of freedom she had never known before. She was no longer just a little girl, but a powerful beast, capable of conquering the skies. She felt her heart full of joy, her spirit soaring with every beat of her wings.

“Are you sad you didn’t make it to the top?” “I’ve thought about that and a few times I pictured myself staring out from the peak of the mountain, yelling that I’ve made it and hearing my echo, but honestly, you guys are my peak! I’ve made it, just having you all by my side. That will always be enough for me! I love you guys.” “We love you too,” AJ chimed in, “but we love you a little less since you can’t flip us off when you get pissed off anymore.” Everyone laughed.

And with that, I lifted her off her feet, my strength propelling us into the night sky. Her gasp of astonishment was music to my ears as we ascended higher and higher, defying gravity's hold. The wind whistled past us, and the cool night air brushed against our skin. Calla's flushed expression, a delightful blend of surprise and excitement, only spurred me on.

As the sun rose on another beautiful day in Flatland, I wondered, as I did most days, if this would be my last. It’s not easy to climb onto a moving dragon. The take off was a series of violent lurches into the air, followed by slow, forceful beats of the giant wings to send us soaring upwards. I grabbed onto Vikchutni’s ear with both hands and held on tightly, my main goal being not to fall to my death — I don’t have many ambitions, but those I do, I pursue vigorously.

The eagle screeched again like it knew what he was feeling and told him to: "hang tight and hold on!" They flew to newer heights. He felt the wind rush by him like a warm embrace. He felt joyfulness like had never felt before. He laughed hard and then screamed with all the strength in his vocal cords. He felt he needed to do something, or else his heart might burst. Then it hit him. He needed to do this or else he might violently convulse in extreme ecstasy. He stood on the eagle's shoulders and positioned to take flight.

And yet, later on, I couldn't tell if I was truly happy. If getting what I wanted was happiness, then why did I still feel this ache and sorrow even with Philip? I had no answer. I just held Mom's hand and promised something even I wasn't certain of. "I will, Mom. I will be happy." Lost in my thoughts, I didn't notice my heel catching on my dress.
