The Upside Of Falling Book Summary Novels & Stories

She felt apprehensive and agitated by the cold vibe he emitted as his comments reverberated throughout the lift. Daisy tried to push him away with her one hand which was not avail. She cowered in terror, her eyes wide as a startled deer, as if even a gentle breeze could make her vanish. His chilly voice was so powerful that it made her tremble as if he were a terrifying ghost. In all this situation they did not feel that the lift had already stopped “What, got scared” Harper lifts his eyebrows and mocks the girl; “You are getting out of line Mr. William”

I placed my feet on one step of the shelf, stretching my hands towards where the book sat, looking towards the ground which was far away from where my body was positioned. My fear increased, and my body weight had pushed the shelf which was causing me to fall snd I would have hit my butt on the ground if I wasn't able to bounce off the weight by steadying myself on the shelf before falling to the ground. I guess that was a big mistake... I looked upwards to see the shelf falling backwards in my direction, and my only thought was that of death, and I could only turn my back to shield my baby while placing my hands before me to shield my face as the shelf fell on me.

Carolyn Cooper was likely surprised to know that my locker was next to hers. My first class was Pack Leadership and Tactics. As an alpha's son— even though I'm not legitimate— I have special textbooks designed exclusively for Alpha heirs. I took my book, closed the locker, and got out of there, not before I heard Pansy say to Carolyn, "I'm so sorry, Carolyn. I shouldn't have chosen high heels to wear today. Or any other day. My foot twisted and, I'm sorry, I fell back and the force pushed you forward."

Felix said as he gave me a look. "No way. That would make me a loser, a failure." "There's nothing wrong with failing. It only gives you a chance to do better work. But don't get me wrong, I don't mean you should work better on your next bet." Felix explained. We were completely opposite of each other but he gets me, that was why he's the closest to me among my friends. He was like a brother to me and I knew he was the only one who could help me get through this mess.

My pensive scowl melted off and a panicked one replaced it as I began to straigheten out the page, immediately realizing that it will never be as good as I found it. Diab- Cassius, I corrected immediately. Cassius' image glared back at me from the rumpled pages of the giant book. My anxiety had gotten the best of me and I had gone back to claim the library book, reading a particular line over and over again. Cassius Marcus Ashford. Status. Dead.

EROS I sat perched at the very edge of the highest building in the city, my legs dangling freely over the side as I gazed upward into the vast expanse of the clear, blue sky above me. From this height, the world below looked so small, peaceful, and orderly, yet I knew better. I knew what truly lay beneath the surface of every street, every house, and every beating heart down there. "What a beautiful world… yet undeniably cruel," I whispered to myself, a faint, knowing smirk touching the corners of my lips as I slowly shook my head in disbelief. The contrast was heartbreaking—so much beauty, yet filled with so much pain, betrayal, and suffering.

I teetered with one foot on the stairs, dangerously close to falling head over ass down the flight of stairs. My arms flailed wildly in the air as I desperately searched for something to hold onto, only to grab and miss the rail. All the while, my eyes, wide with horror, were transfixed on the man who stood frozen on the stairs, watching me in equal surprise and horror. Then mercifully, he seemed to snap out of his shock just as I fell over, and moved quickly. He grabbed one of my flailing arms and with incredible strength, hauled me forward and I flew, with all the grace of a ragdoll to collide with his chest, the impact knocking the breath out of me.

Time to get back to work. "Sloane?" I turn. "The book I left on the bus. Did you read it?" "I'm halfway through." "And?" "It's exactly what I needed. How did you know?" "Because I read it three years ago when I was falling apart. And it helped." He shrugs. "Figured it might help you too." "It does. Thank you." "Small gestures." "Small gestures," I agree. I walk back to my equipment feeling lighter than I have in months.

Sebastian's words looked far-fetched but with the look he had in his eyes, I chose to believe him. " If he did something as severe as that, why was he brought back," I asked for him to construct a sardonic smile on his face while his gaze intensified. " When you are at the top, there will be others that would want to pull you down. My father and the ancient wolves had their eyes on me, waiting for when I would make a mistake and I did," he said.
