Xara

I had waited for this day for almost a decade—the day I would see the Angel.

I grew up picturing him to be all kinds of creatures, but Trip was right. He looked just like every other man. Except he had wings attached to his back.

No, that’s wrong. He didn’t exactly look like every other man. He was beautiful. More beautiful than even Greek Gods probably were.

And he saw me looking at him.

I cursed under my breath as I ran away, hidden in the shadows, just like Trip had taught me. I shouldn’t have let him see me. He shouldn’t have known that I could see him. I was supposed to follow him while I stayed hidden. He was never supposed to see my face.

And instead, I was running away from him.

What other choice did I have?

When I thought I was hidden well enough, I looked back. Nobody was there.

I was so sure that he’d follow me. The way he’d looked at me…it was almost as if he’d been waiting for me, too.

My phone rang and I nearly screamed. With shaking hands, I took it out of my purse and turned the sound off before it could give me away to anyone. To the Angel, though it didn’t look like he’d bothered to follow me at all.

“What?” I hissed when I picked up.

“Where the hell did you go?” Nora said.

“I’m going home,” I said, and I could practically see her freeze in place. I’d lived with her for the past three years. I even knew the way she breathed. She was my best friend, after all.

“Get your ass back here, now!” she said.

“I shouldn’t have come to this stupid party in the first place.” But I was damn glad I had. Otherwise, who knew when I would’ve seen the Angel? “I’m leaving.”

“God, Xara! You’re killing me! I need you to be here.”

I rolled my eyes. “You don’t need me, Nora. You’re fine all by yourself.” She really was.

“What if he comes over to talk to me?”

I almost laughed. The reason why she’d dragged me to this fancy masquerade party was to see this man she’d been crushing on since forever.

“Then talk to him! What do you need me for?”

She argued with me for another minute, then begged me to go back for a few more seconds, then she hung up on me. That was expected. Like I said, I knew my best friend. She’d be fine by morning.

Besides, I had more important things to take care of. I had to find Trip.

He lived not far from where I was, but I was still going to need a cab to get there. I waited for another fifteen minutes, just to make sure the Angel wasn’t hiding somewhere, waiting for me, before I left.

The more time passed, the more I panicked. I’d trained for a long time to finally see that Angel. I was supposed to follow him, and eventually, he would lead me to my brother. That’s what Trip said.

And now, I had this terrible feeling that I’d ruined it.
