Ascent Series, Series by Kris Hack

I loved him at fifteen. I thought we’d stand the test of time. He was my forever but maybe I fell too fast or loved him too much. Maybe I came on too strong or maybe I did something wrong. He still left. Turned his back on me without a word. I never thought I’d see him again and to be honest, I didn’t want to. I began to hate him even though he would never know it. But then, I did see him again and with him came the secrets that would forever change all of our lives... moreI loved him at fifteen. I thought we’d stand the test of time.

I never thought I’d see him again and to be honest, I didn’t want to. I began to hate him even though he would never know it. But then, I did see him again and with him came the secrets that would forever change all of our lives. She was only a recurring dream in my foggy unconscious. A voice. A face. We weren’t supposed to dream. We weren’t supposed to remember. They said it was impossible and the before would never come into the now. None of the others remember, at least not that I know of. What I do know is that she was my everything, my every waking breath. Now that I’ve found her I will not be losing her a second time. She will be mine again, no matter what the cost. less

The pain is unbearable. The voices are worse. I know it’s affecting her, I can see it in her eyes every time I look at her. We’ve been on this journey for weeks with no relief in sight.

To ensure that I can once again be the man that she needs, the man that she loves. I have to fall... moreThe pain is unbearable. The voices are worse. I know it’s affecting her, I can see it in her eyes every time I look at her. We’ve been on this journey for weeks with no relief in sight. We haven’t had a real conversation since before that first strike of lightning, and I constantly miss what we could have become. There’s only one thing I can do to make it all go away. To ensure that I can once again be the man that she needs, the man that she loves. I have to fall. The apocalypse wasn’t what I thought it would be. The earth hasn’t turned to lava, and ungodly creatures haven’t risen from the depths of hell. The angels are fighting the Fallen, and more and more humans are slain every day. Both sides are multiplying, and there’s only one side we can choose to be on. The Fallen are evil, but more and more I’m realizing so are the angels. No one can be trusted, and no one is safe. less
