The A girl by Hope (best book series to read txt) 📕

just felt right to be with him, and I kissed him. My father can’t know because he’s a traitor. He is not who I thought he was. I just need to tell someone. And I can trust you. When I graduate; I’m leaving. Adrian’s going to take me to meet my dad.” I said, and she interrupted me.
“And what about your life here? You’re just going to leave? No goodbye or explanations. Aaron’s going to wake up, and you’ll just be gone? You can do that to him?” She accused, and my eyes got wide with shock.
“No, he knows about my Dad. He knows I’m leaving.” I said and she stood up.
“Does he know why? I defended you. I feel like such an idiot. I told Elle she was the slut, but she was right. You are a slutty, backstabbing, cheater.” She yelled at me a glow to her skin, but her eyes were damp.
“I made a bad choice. I don’t want to hurt anyone.” I defended myself.
“So it only happened once?” She asked hopefully and I grimaced.
“No it’s still going on. I love Aaron.” I started, but she lifted her hand silencing me.
“No. You do not love him. You couldn’t do this to him if you loved him.” She said and I stood up.
“But don’t you see? I’m doing this to Adrian not him. I was with Adrian. He’s the one I betray by being with Aaron.” I said defending myself, but wanting to throw up from the guilt. Adrian would die if he heard what I had just said.
“Does that make it better? Aaron is the one you’re dating. Now you tell me you’re in love with someone else too? And that you act on it? You can’t string both of them along.” She said and I nodded.
“You’re right I know, but.” I said, and she cut me off.
“There are no buts about it. You are leaving one of them. I’m all for being a bad kid, but you can’t be a slut and my best friend. If you don’t tell him, I will.” She said and I got in her face glowering as I felt the power of the shadow realms.
“I trusted you!” I yelled.
“Just like Aaron trusted you.” She said shoving me back.
“If you tell him I will rip your wings off your untrustworthy back.” I growled before walking out the door, and slamming it so hard the hinges broke. It flew off into her room shattering the door frame as it ripped free. I groaned as people yelled about the time. I walked out of the angel area, and ran right into Aaron.
“What are you doing up?” I asked rubbing tears out of my eyes, and he shrugged at me.
“What are you doing here?” He asked, looking up at the starry sky.
“I was, nothing.” I muttered, and he looked at me.
“What happened?” He whispered pulling me to him, and I sobbed into his chest. I was tired of being angry, and I was tired of being hurt.
“I’m sorry.” I whispered, and I was going to pull away only to find his arms locked around my waist.
“One second.” He said, and I heard the soft whoosh of his wings. A minute later he set me down on a cliff, and sat down dangling his feet over the edge.
“You’re sorry?” He asked and I looked away from him.
“I am just going crazy. I haven’t told you the whole story.” I said with a sniffle, and he looked at me pain in his eyes.
“I know.” He whispered looking in front of him again. I looked at the back of his head, and bit my lip before walking over to him.
“Do you want to hear the whole story?” I said filled with dread as my hands began to shake. My heart was racing, and my legs felt like jelly dangling over the cliff ledge.
“I’m afraid to.” He said, and we sat there in silence for who knows how long. I lay back after a while, and he did the same. I stayed awake watching the sky, but he fell asleep soon after lying down. I looked over at his perfect sleeping face. He started mumbling, and he grimaced. I thought I heard my name in his mumblings making me curious of his dream. I focused on him, and one image filled my head. Adrian kissing me in the hall. Suddenly the world went back into focus as I gasped. If I had seen his dream, and he really had seen that… I couldn’t face him now. I stood up, and thought of me in the shadow realms. I had wings there maybe I could… No I didn’t want to push my luck, and help speed the change along. I instead concentrated on being back outside next to the weeping willow where Aaron found me. I felt the cool breeze, and smelled the leaves before I opened my eyes.
I sighed sitting down as I leaned against the tree. I needed to figure everything out. Let’s see… Than told me that I was going to be a goddess. He also told me I couldn’t be with Adrian, and he said he called me mistress because he wanted to be on my side. Again. What does that mean?
I shifted into the shadow realm deciding that Than was a good a place as any to start.
“Hello Mistress. Welcome back.” Than greeted, and I nodded to him.
“Don’t I have wings?” I asked, and he nodded. “Where are they?”
“Make them appear.” He said, and I focused on the way Aaron’s wings came out of his back. I felt a searing pain in my back for a second, and then looked in my mirror. My wings were as tall as me and each wing as wide. They had very long black feathers that drifted across the bottom of the floor at the end of my wings. I touched the downy feathers, and they turned silver.
“Beautiful. Um, anyways I was wondering… Earlier you said you want to be on my side again. What do you mean again?” I asked running my hand through my hair.
“Oh, well when you become a goddess you gain access to those who came before you.” He said, and I stopped him confused again.
“Wait I thought goddess’s were immortal.”
“Goddess isn’t the right word. They had the power, but they didn’t have the mindset we wanted to make them an immortal. They had the power, but they got to stay on Earth.” He explained, and I looked at him in shock.
“So, I can keep my power, and stay on Earth?” I asked mad at Hades lie.
“Not exactly. Look, you’ve been selected. It’s an honor. Don’t worry about why everything is happening, and just be glad that you’re so lucky. Now, what I meant by again was that you have been a goddess before. The last goddess tried to overthrow Zeus, and she was killed. I support you no matter what.” He stuttered, and I shook my head.
“I don’t want this!” I yelled my voice making rocks fall.
“Please be calm.” Than soothed, and I turned to him imagining him feeling the pain I feel everyday all accumulated into one. He hunched over, and I looked away from him my mouth moving on its own.
“I am the Goddess of life and suffering. The chosen one. You do not control me.” I towered above him, and I got control of myself before growling. “I’m leaving.”
I opened my eyes to see the moon high in the sky. I got up walking to my class; Adrian’s class. I’d skipped my other classes, and I’d probably skip more. I walked in right as the bell rang, and forced myself to not look at Rose. When class was finally over, I took a long time to pack up my stuff as I waited for everyone else to filter out. Once the last person was out of the door, and on their way to lunch I closed and locked the door.
“Can we talk?” I walked towards him, and he nodded.
“Is something wrong?” He asked and I huffed.
“They’re choosing me to be immortal. I don’t have to be. They are going to make me.” I looked up glaring at the ceiling while Adrian put his hand on my shoulder.
“They have a good reason I’m sure.” He consoled, but I shrugged him off not having it.
“That’s not all. Aaron caught us kissing. He knows I cheated.” I answered blinking back tears as I looked at Adrian. I wouldn’t let him see me get upset by Aaron.
“Has he confronted you?” He grabbed my shoulders looking me square in the eye.
“No, not yet, but I know he’s going to.” Adrian pulled me to him just as there was a knock on the door followed by a crash. I let go of Adrian, and I looked over to see Aaron standing on the broken door. He glared at Adrian and I before storming out. I ran out after him, and grabbed his arm. He yanked his arm from me turning so abruptly I nearly ran into him.
“You cheated on me again.” He growled, and I sobbed shaking my head.
“No Aaron please.” I begged, but he was already walking out the doors. I burst through the exit in time to see him shoot up into the sky.
I sobbed my shoulders shuddering as I breathed, and I ran to Rose’s room. She was the only person I could trust to at least listen. I burst through her entrance after I ran the whole way there.
“Rose I’m sorry. Aaron confronted me, and we’re broken up.” I said, but I looked around. She wasn’t in her room. I sniffled before sulking my way to my room. I wiped my eyes before opening the door to see Chris standing there.
“Allie, what did you do?” He asked opening his arms up, and I ran to him burying my face in his chest as he hugged me.
“I’m a worthless cheater Chris. I’m a terrible person.” I muttered sobbing again, and he smoothed my hair with his hand as he nuzzled his cheek against my head.
“Sh, it’s alright. Tell me about it.” He cooed, and I felt my jaw quiver.
“I cheated on him. I kissed someone else, and I mean I kissed kissed him too. He has every right to be mad. I feel so terrible.” He kissed the top of my head making me sigh as I relaxed a little.
“Aaron will come around. Give him a while to cool down, and soon enough he’ll be willing to talk.”
“Why are you here? I’m glad you are, but why?” I looked up at him, and he smiled sadly.
“Adrian got me.” His eyes flooded with realization as he saw the guilt on my face, “That’s who it is, isn’t it? It was Adrian.”
“You can’t tell anyone, please.” I pleaded and he nodded kissing my forehead.
“Just breathe. You can trust me always.”
“I don’t deserve a friend like you. I’m not trustworthy. I’m a liar, and I deserve everything to fall apart just like it is.” Chris looked at me sternly making me silence my sniffling.
“Ahnallie Faine quit it. You never act this way. Let’s stop the pity party, and get your act together. Tell your bubbs about it. What’s going on?” He asked concern in his eyes as a soft knock sounded on the open door.
“My sentiments exactly.” Ciaran said softly, and I rubbed my eyes glaring at him.
“Get out. I don’t trust you. Go.” I growled, and he looked mildly surprised.
“I thought we were past this.” He whispered stepping towards me.
“I am trying to
