The rain on the western ridge did not merely fall; it drove sideways, a relentless sheet of freezing highland water that turned the peat and heather into a thick, clinging mire. Tala stood perfectly motionless at the absolute precipice of the ridge, her feet dug firmly into the ancient earth. The storm howled around her, ripping at her clothes, but her spun-copper hair seemed to dance with a life of its own, vibrant against the dark, bruising gray of the sky. Her icy blue eyes were fixed on the valley below, tracking the glowing halogen headlights of Malakai’s heavy excavation armor as the machinery slowly ground its way toward the first sacred threshold.

We all knew that despite the love and unions within our individual couples, we’d need to unite as one to take on the future. Thank you for reading BOUND BY A PROMISE.

The light from the snow outside the window reflected off her face, making her beauty seem ethereal. To the strains of a lilting violin, I dropped to one knee. Margaret froze for a moment, her eyes filling with surprise and unease. "Margaret." I looked up at her and took her cold hand in mine. "Every day spent with you over these past few months has brought me immense joy. I want this happiness to last a lifetime. So, will you marry me?"

he comments. I followed him to the door as he talked. I was grateful that he wasn't going to push me to stay here longer. It felt weird to have anyone new in my space, and my last meeting with a boy in my room left me feeling awkward. "Just promise me one thing," he turns and looks at me. His eyebrows crease together with concern, and I hold my breath, hoping I can keep this promise. "You don't go looking for her without me.

Cold droplets of rain splashed against Dominic’s face, mixing with the warmth of his tears as they traced a path down his cheeks, soaking his clothes and the wound on his hand. Blood dripped again.

Walking outside I glanced up at the sky, "it is supposed to get bad tonight." Brooke frowned, "yeah well it's not even raining right now so I don't want to hear it.
