βThat was close.β
Cadriel maneuvered himself in midair and smiled at the angel coming out of the blinding light with hair almost as white as his folded wings behind him.
βAgnolo, why are you here?β
Like him, Agnolo suspended himself in the air and looked him straight in the eyes. βCadriel, the godsββ
He raised his hand to stop Agnolo. βIf this is about last night, please, donβt bother. I know the rules, but I just canβt attack anyone who is defenseless, and I mean anyone.β
Agnolo smiled uncertainly. βThe gods are worried that what happened to Alastair will also happen to you.β
Cadriel narrowed his eyes before shaking his head, feeling annoyed. Alastair was supposed to be Victorβs guardian angel, but after Alastair had let the demon get away with the human he was assigned to before, the gods made him takeover the guardianship of Victor.
βTell the gods thisβI have never failed them since I started working for them, so I hope they wonβt start doubting me now and comparing me to Alastair. We do things differently, and the gods should know that better than anyone else. They didnβt rank me an archangel for fun, did they?β
βCadriel! You know I canβt say something so disrespectful!β
Β βI know.β He smiled. Personally, he didn’t see how saying what was in his mind disrespectful, but thatβs just how most angels were, and Agnolo was not an exception. βPlease just tell the gods not to worry, I have everything under control.β
Interesting little teaser there. P.s. I’ve contacted you about a Behind the Author Interview if you want it. My messages sometimes go to Spam. I think it would be fun π
Thank you Mathew β€οΈ Thanks for considering me. It will be my honor to do the interview. I haven’t seen the email yet so I’ll check it soon. π
This is interesting, Jess! Cadriel is such a cute name. π
Thanks Weng!
You’re welcome, Jess!
Is this the beginning of a larger story?
That’s a complicated question. Haha π
This one is an excerpt for the first book in a series. You can say that it’s a beginning of a larger storyline, but it also stand on its own. A reader can read this book without missing the next, or read the next book without the first. Because the next books will be about the minor characters from this volume.
In short. This is a beginning of a series but also a standalone story. I hope made sense π
It’s a great start Jessicaβ¨π Best Wishes β¨π€βοΈ
Thanks Simon. It’s actually a part someplace in the middle of the book π
so its a completed book π€ . Ok then will search ur bookππ
Haha π Thanks Simon. The links is beside the book cover under the teaser, or by clicking on the cover itself. Thanks for reading. Have a great day π
Thanks Jessica. Post completion of my existing books, next is yours.ππ
Sounds an interesting story! Except your selection of names make me stare to the screen like crazy hahha best of luck Jess <3
Was it bad? They’re not humans so I figure that it was best to give them an unusual names. The main character’s is Triste (a demon princess) and “triste” is a wordplay of the Norwegian word “trist” which means sad. Later, I found out that the word “Triste” existed in Spanish. And this means sad too π
oh no not bad, it’s your story and your choice, but I will never memorize them π I know what Triste, I’m french educated and it means the same “sad” π yes in Spanish too but different pronunciation probably, what a inspiring name π
Yes, we often say that French is like a softer Spanish. π
Aha good to know this information π
πππ
You were nominated! π enjoy!
