Heavens Trilogy
By
Diana Nixon
Book 1
The Souls of Rain
Synopsis
The secrets of the heavens had always been carefully
guarded. Until one day when the angels realized that what they used to believe
in was nothing but a cruel game between heaven and hell.
And Claire’s life is a part of that game too….
She is a guardian angel. She always thought that her
existence was perfect. But perfection is a very relative term, and no one is
protected from making mistakes.
Everything changes the moment Claire gets a new assignment.
Guarding humans has never been easy, and this time won’t be an exception.
Alan Rosenford is a spoilt party-boy, whose life is a
hurricane of risk and adrenaline rush. His soul is damaged, his heart is
bleeding, and there are so many things he prefers to keep private….
The words they have never said before ….
The sins they have never committed….
How much does forgiveness of the heavens cost?
Or maybe even the heavens make mistakes?...
***
Trailing my fingers over the
lines of your face,
Kissing your lips and melting in
your embrace,
Enjoying the warmth and drinking
in the moment,
Leading multiple lives feels like
a pure torment.
Falling even deeper in love with
you,
Discovering all the things I
never knew,
Evolving into someone better and
someone new,
I’ll stay for one more day, or
maybe for a few,
To build up my strength to live
centuries without you.
I’ll follow you to the deserts
and across the oceans,
Desperate for changes and
overwhelming emotions;
I’ll stay with you on the earth,
or follow you to the sky,
Only with you can I breathe and
feel myself alive.
Holding hands, we walk between
the silver raindrops,
With the snow-white doves flying
around us;
Leaving for the memories we
shared, lives ago,
Can we put them back together? No
one knows.
Look around and tell me what you
see,
There’s no one else in sight, but
you and me,
Chasing away the darkness and
stormy clouds,
Just the way it was always meant
to be.
Living like there’s nothing left
to lose,
No one to forgive, no one to
accuse.
When the bridges of hope come
crashing down,
In the bewitching sounds of love
we drown,
As we kiss away each other’s
worst fears,
Banishing regrets, pains and
bitter tears.
Take a breath and wait for the
long tomorrow,
If I disappear in the shadows,
find me and follow,
Rescue me in the midst of my
endless night,
Turn the pale moon into bright
daylight,
Make this heart of mine miss a
beat,
Only with you is my soul
complete.
Prologue
Three angels were standing in the middle of a round,
crystal room. Their long, silver cloaks were swaying slowly in the wind; the
rustle of their wings was the only sound breaking the intense silence. One of
them, a woman with curly, strawberry-blond hair that went to her feet, raised
her hand and a huge, white cloud formed in front of her.
“The girl deserves to know the truth,” she said to the
others.
“This is insane,” a male angel replied, shaking his
head. He ran one palm through his messy, sandy hair; his big, blue eyes seemed
to be brighter than the sky itself. “What if something goes wrong?” He stared
nervously at the picture appearing inside the cloud.
“We are losing control over her.”
“She’s right,” the other male angel said. “It’s not
safe to keep her here.” His golden eyes shifted impatiently between his
companions. “We need to send her back to the earth.”
“You will follow her,” the woman said, looking at the
blue-eyed angel. He was the youngest of the three of them, and his age was the
only thing that stopped him from breaking the order. He didn’t want to spy on
anyone. He used to be one of the best guardian angels, until one day he made a
huge mistake and was obliged to follow the orders of the top-ranked angels. It
was the worst part of his punishment; he hated being told what to do.
“You didn’t have to say that,” he snapped, meeting the
woman’s emotionless eyes. Sometimes it was really hard to believe that she was
an angel, and not a demon wearing snow-white wings. “You know I would have
never left her unprotected.”
“Right.” The other angel smirked.
“Albert,” the woman hissed, warningly. Her voice
sounded calm, but the intonation said it all — she didn’t approve fights
between her subordinates. “This meeting is over. I’ll see you two later.” And
just like that, she disappeared, making the air in the room crackle. Albert grimaced
at the force of energy left after her disappearance. He wasn’t as strong as she
was, and the powers she possessed always made him uneasy. He looked one last
time at the blue-eyed angel, and followed the woman.
Left alone, the angel stared at the picture of the
girl he was supposed to spy on. The girl was a guardian angel. She was slim and
beautiful; with long, black hair and big green eyes, shadowed by the curling
lashes.
She was walking down the alley surrounded by the
age-old oaks, watching her fosterling. She seemed to be relaxed, but in reality
her every instinct was on alert. Her wings were outspread, and though no human
could see her like that, the creatures of the heavens always knew when she was
on duty.
“I won’t let
you down, Claire,” the angel swore in a whisper, making the cloud in front of
him turn black. “Never again….”
