From Vows To Love

From Vows To Love

Lilienne Winslow "I'm a mess of warm chaos but I won't let you see it in my eyes, I smile every time but I won't let you see the sadness behind them ,it's pathetic" Rowan Sinclair "Your chaos doesn't frighten me; it draws me in. you wear a smile that dances like sunlight through shadows, but know this, my love: I see beyond the facade. Behind those shimmering eyes lies a world of storms, and it's not pathetic, it's beautifully human. Let me be your anchor in this tempest; let me cradle your sadness and transform it into something radiant. Even when you feel lost, I'll be right here, holding you tight." Neither of them ever wished for the union of marriage, not the weight of a promise, that felt more like chains. two souls adrift, untamed, untouched by love's hand.Yet fate, with silent steps, wove them into one, In a bond neither sought, but neither could withstand. He, a man of steel, a man of few words and of unshaken resolve, She, a spirit of grace, a woman of quiet strength,carrying wounds, no one cared to see. In the quiet vows exchanged, hearts kept their guard,But in the silence between them, emotions sparked, unbarred. In his silence, she found a space to breathe. In her fragility, he found something worth protecting.

𝐋𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐍𝐄 I descended the staircase of the glass-walled mansion, the soft clatter of cutlery and low murmurs from the dining room nudging me out of my thoughts.They were all already seated—lined up at the long marble table like royalty at a feast. I didn’t bother offering a greeting. Just headed to the kitchen, reaching for a glass, desperate to stay invisible.Of course, Veronica wouldn’t let that happen.“Congrats, little sis,” she sang out, her voice dripping with mockery.I didn’t even glance at her. Just muttered, “Hmm,” and kept drinking.Grandma didn’t waste a second. “Lily, would it kill you to show some manners? She congratulates you and you respond like a spoiled brat.”Aunt Jemma jumped on the moment like she’d been waiting for it. “She’s changed, Mom. Ever since college, she’s become... different. God knows what she’s even doing there.”I turned around slowly, a half-smile on my face as I raised the mug to my lips.“Correction, Aunt Jemma. It’s medicine. Not ‘Go

After dinner, I followed Grandpa and Dad into the study.The warm amber glow of the old lamp softened the shadows, casting a golden tint across the shelves lined with worn books and dark polished wood. It looked peaceful but the air felt different. Still. Heavy. Like something was about to shift.Grandpa moved slowly toward the couch, his movements slower these days, but his presence—unshaken. As firm as ever.“Sit, Rowan,” he said, motioning to the space beside him. His voice wasn’t loud, but it didn’t need to be. I sat, perching on the edge. Dad settled into the chair opposite us.Both of them were quiet for a second too long. Their eyes were on me not harsh, not pressing but with something else. Expectation.Grandpa finally cleared his throat.“It’s time, Rowan. You should start thinking about settling down. You’ve already said no to too many proposals.”I knew it was coming. It always came. But still, the words hit with a chill. I could already feel the irritation beginning to cl

𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐀𝐍 I stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of my Manhattan office, watching the city stretch beneath me. From up here, New York looked almost... insignificant. Like a game I’d already won. Every building, every street, every frantic soul rushing below—it all moved the way I allowed it to. Power wasn't something I chased. I owned it. Controlled it. Wielded it with every decision I made.

The phone on my desk buzzed again. Another board update. Right on schedule. I glanced at my Rolex and smiled faintly. Always on time. Everything about me ran like clockwork. No margin for error.

Chapter: Chapter 2
In his private study, he gestured for me to sit. The room, dressed in leather and mahogany, felt more like a courtroom than a place where a father and daughter should speak. "So, when are you going back to New York?" he asked, his voice calm but direct. "Tomorrow," I replied not wanting to engage with him even for a moment "Don't go," he said suddenly I blinked, turning to look at him, utterly shocked. For the first time in my life, my father had asked me to stay, the man who had barely spoken to me for years, who hadn't even flinched when I left for NYC to pursue my dream was now asking me to stay suddenly but why? It was a strange and, unsettling My mind flashed back to the time when I first told him I wanted to study medicine, and he hadn't said a word. No encouragement, no resistance, just silence and a black card that I didn't use. It was my grandmother, my aunt, and Melora who had caused the usual drama, but none of that had mattered because I had left anyway because I wa

𝐋𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐍𝐄 𝐖𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐋𝐎𝐖 The house was in complete chaos. It was September 8th, Melora’s birthday, and today, the whole world seemed to orbit around her. I didn’t want to be here., i had escaped this place and all its suffocating toxicity the moment I turned eighteen, heading off to med school not just because it was my dream, but because it was the only way out.This house, the one others dared to call home, family had always felt like a prison to me.I came back yesterday to get a few documents signed, planning to leave as soon as I was done. But Melora had practically begged me to stay for her birthday I might’ve refused, but then Grandma added her usual dose of guilt.“Oh, so you’re too good for us now, huh? You’ve seen the outside world and suddenly, your family doesn’t matter anymore?”Her words didn’t sting because they were true, they weren’t but because they echoed the weight I’d carried all these years. I hated this house. But I hated the way she twisted my silence
