Ariellas pov Relaxation hit me fast. I felt free. At some point Ace had lifted me up and had me sitting on his lap. Whatever they gave me was working wonders. "You are so beautiful." Ace whispered next to my ear. The feeling of being against his body was nice. Comforting. The tickle of his voice hitting my ear had me shivering. My sensations were all over the place. It felt like I was getting cold even with the sun heating up the garden. The warm breeze should have helped heat me up but it did the complete opposite. Every time it hit me I moved closer to Ace who didn't seem to mind. Everything around us was going so slow, so serene. I see why they inhaled that straw. A rough hand rested on my upper thigh pulling my attention to my leg. Ace was making small circles on my leg. Part of me knew I should probably move but I was too lazy and comfortable. I felt his hand go up higher but I was too relaxed to even talk. My mouth felt heavy and my body did to. "So soft." Ace whispered
Ariellas pov "But they, they inhaled the straw too." I rushed to defend myself. I couldn't get in trouble if everyone else did it to right? Alax chucked before shaking his head. "A straw you say?" He asked like what I said was the funniest thing he ever heard. "This. This is not a joke. I didn't know what it was and I won't do it again." I stuttered. The realization that I might make my dad suffer was taking away the fun of having friends and being here all together. "It doesn't matter, you did it and if you were to go to your next class like this consequences would've been severe. Drugs are forbidden on campus." I felt light headed as I realized what I had done. Drugs? I had heard of drugs but all I knew was mortals took them to get high and sometimes they made them do crazy things. Every kind had a different effect and some could be deadly. The high king actually made them illegal recently to any low rank God. "Am I going to get arrested?" I asked as I came to realize my mis
Ariellas pov My head felt like someone had punched me a million times. Nomatter how hard I tried to reel in the pain it just kept coming. A throbbing pain that was like clock work. No amount of tossing and turning did the job. "Help." I groaned. Hopefully my father would hear me. He was usually very alert and nomatter the time he would come running. Silence was all that filled my room besides an annoying clock that kept ticking. Who put a clock in my room? "Daddy." I called out, causing the throbbing to take ahold of my temple. I lifted my hand to try to massage my head but my arms felt like jelly. I couldn't even panic right because every time I sobbed or freaked out a pulsing pain shot through the side of my head. Where was he at? I couldn't call for him anymore because just the thought of the pain that talking caused had me panicking. He would be up to check on me soon. I hoped. For now I would try to fall back to sleep. Tick, tick tick was all I heard and it was driving m
Ariellas pov "Are you seriously going to ignore me all day?" Blake asked right as Aries class ended. I would say I was flattered to receive so much attention but I didn't plan on lying. Soon Blake would get over it and life would be easier. Having him around when I vowed to never talk again was stressful. Especially since this morning was boring and the first two classes were beyond pointless. I can't even use my powers so why they had me in a class that is to help strengthen ones powers is beyond me. Power awakening my foot. How dare they put me in bed with clothes on and than put me in a class that is a waste of my time. If the powers my mother died with could somehow awaken I think I would know by now. Everyone that looked at me was probably wondering the same thing I was the whole time, what's the point? Let's not get me started on the second class I had to take. Spell perfection. I don't have powers. "Let's go." Blake interrupted my train of thoughts which was getting old
Ariellas pov I really couldn't believe that he was really stooping this low. All I was doing was ignoring him and he decided that was grounds for making me eat squid. "Blake. Ariella I presume." A blond haired God said as he sat down from accross us. I took him in quietly as I stirred this nasty concoction with the spoon I was given. "Are you guys really eating squid?" The blond God asked with disgust written all over his face. Even he knew this was torture. "Well you see Ariella Is ignoring me and refused to tell me what kind of food she wanted, so I decided I would play along to her petty games too." Blake lied. Blatantly lied to be exact. It was like he was named Blake because they knew he would lie. It was fine I would eat this nasty squid and than once I started dating the yellow haired God nobody would have the right to ever boss me around or lie to me again. And if I couldn't get the yellowed haired God I would find someone better. Just wait and see. All my anger was b
Ariellas pov "You know what, who would've thought we would become bff's over tacos and squid." Alax mocked me for what seemed like the millionth time. "It's been a week. It's getting old." I groaned as I shoved another fry in my mouth. I actually regretted saying that the moment it came out my mouth. Alax was immature and petty at times. I should've known he would take pleasure in teasing me. "You two act like siblings at times." Blake absentmindedly said as he shoved a piece of pizza In his mouth. I doubt he even chewed the way he took a bite and swallowed. "You know both of you are rude." I said as I looked though my classwork for the hundredth time. I could bang my head against this book. None of these laws made any sense. "You're on the council right. You know I bet if you." I Couldn't even get my full sentence out before he was grunting his disapproval. "Nope." Blake said without giving me a chance to beg. "What's the point of being on the council if you can't use it to
Ariellas pov It sucked not understanding the laws that the high king created. It felt like he wanted a reason to punish someone. Nomatter how many times I read this book it did nothing for me and to make matters worse the teacher stopped allowing us to share in class. So I was forced to read to myself whenever I had time. Hoping and praying that something gave before I failed the class. I don't get how the high king decided that this book cut it. "Did you hear, the high kings here." A Goddess screeched to her friend. I would've been interested in what she was saying but for the last few days the rumor had been going strong. Everyone was freaking out and I didn't understand why. Even though he was the high king he still killed his wife to gain absolute power. That was something going around the school alot. Nobody said his wife's name but everyone talked about how she was the most powerful God until he stole everything. Every time I brought him up, Blake turned into a brick and
Ariellas pov "Well lucky for you we were just getting started. So if you would." He gestured towards the seats. It felt like the room was getting stuffy the more I looked at his sparkling eyes. An arm grabbed me and guided me towards my seat by my waist. The God who seemed to be teaching the class watched me with interest as Blake dragged me to our seat. As soon as I got into my seat he sat down and groaned. My head seemed to clear alittle bit with Blakes help luckily. I don't know why but I felt a pull to that God up front. Whatever his name was. I looked up front and observed the God who was now looking through the book we were assigned. His ankles were crossed and he was lazily going through the pages like he had no care in the world. He didn't even us his powers to flip the pages. His finger lazily skimming page by page. As he slowly licked his finger and used it to help get a page unstuck, I slowly short circuited. I couldn't look away from him. The small smile he made
