Autumn Promise Novels & Stories

Then he told me, "This dress would only suit you." I accepted it and kept it at the bottom of my trunk. I liked it too much to wear it. On the day he left, he stood at the entrance of Silver Hollow and said, "Julia, come with me." I refused him. I told him I could not bear to leave the village, and I could not bear to leave my mother. After that, he never asked again. Over the years, he would send me something for each holiday. Sometimes, it was books. Sometimes, it was fabric. Other times, it was a jar of candy that could only be bought in the city.

Her eyes were filled with pity when she saw a young man like me renting the place just to pile up junk. Mr. Winters' factory was right next door, and he produced the same line of goods as Uncle Liam. Half his yard was piled high with scrap and left unattended. When I knocked on his door, he sized me up. "Aren't you Liam's nephew? I heard you and your uncle had a massive falling out." "I'm here to talk business, Mr. Winters. I'm sure a personal rift won't get in the way of my business." He smiled. "Fair enough. You've got guts. In any case, you can take that scrap pile off my hands. I'll sell them to you for five grand."

I will give her everything I never had. One evening, as I rock Lily to sleep, I whisper a promise into the darkness. "I will always protect you," I say. "I will always be there for you. I will always love you." She stirs, her small hand reaching up to touch my face. I smile. "I will be the father you deserve." The days grow shorter, the nights longer. Autumn deepens, painting the world in shades of amber and rust. The leaves fall, carpeting the ground in a mosaic of gold and brown. The lake grows colder, the surface rippled by the wind.

"Promise me you'll never leave again. Promise me you'll never run again. Promise me you'll never hide from me again. Promise me you'll never disappear." "Promise me you'll never push me away again. Promise me you'll never shut me out again. Promise me you'll never try to protect me by hurting me. Promise me you'll always let me in." "I promise. I promise on everything. I promise on Noah. I promise on us." "I promise. I promise on everything. I promise on Noah. I promise on us. I promise on every day we have left." Noah runs back. His hands are wet. His face is dirty. There's a feather in his hair. He's beaming.

“I want to make you a promise.” Luna looked up at Asher, her gray eyes filled with curiosity and love. “What promise, Asher?” Luna asked quietly, her voice barely above a whisper. Asher took a deep breath and let it out slowly, trying to find the right words. “I promise you, Luna,” Asher said quietly but firmly. “I promise you that I will never let Aurora feel unloved. I promise you that I will never let Aurora feel unsafe. I promise you that I will spend the rest of my life making sure Aurora knows she’s cherished.”

Arnapurna announced. Swara was smiling when the trio praised her. "Bhai, when is your flight?” Uttara asked. "In two hours. I will leave after dinner," Laksh replied. "Bhai, can I and Swara Didi come to drop you?" Uttara asked. Laksh looked at Swara and nodded his head in agreement. ♡♡♡ "Bye, Bhai. Take care," Uttara said. "Swara! Take Care of yourself," Laksh said while hugging Swara.

“He hasn’t. And he won’t.” I shook my head, trying not to believe her. “That’s not true.” Thor promised me protection. I signed the contract. I agreed to his terms. I knew if there was anything, he would find a way to get me out of this. Or, so I hoped. “You were a mystery the moment you entered Astrald. And now that mystery has turned into danger. Thor has to protect his position. He cannot risk you for his people and reign.” Tears pricked at my eyes. I hated how her words clung to the bruises already etched in my soul. She was making a bit of sense and I began to doubt whatever hope I had.

He looked at Autumn's face, observing her as he said, "Didn't you say you wanted to go to Disneyland? Do you want Papa to take a few days off of work to take you there?" The fear in Autumn's eyes was instantly replaced by surprise. She sat up, questioning him with a sweet voice, "Really?" Her smile melted Ryan's heart, which led to negotiation. "Really, but only if you stop crying for Mama and go to bed. Papa will try his best to finish up work and take you there. I promise." "Oh my god! Oh my god! Yay! I get to go to Disneyland!" Simple minded, the child immediately dropped her doubts towards Ryan after having been promised such an amazing deal. She even started bouncing joyfully on her pin

"We're going somewhere we don't know. What if Callie returns to the pack? What if she escapes and goes back, and we're not there? How would she find us?" Autumn reached out and placed her hand on Rain's thigh, a gentle, grounding touch. "We know who took her," she said. "And he's not going to just let her go. He has plans for her, which means he'll keep her alive and relatively safe until those plans come to fruition. That gives us time to track him down." She paused, making sure Rain was really hearing her. "We are going to get her back. I promise you that."

“It’s not like that, Eric. Please don’t think like that.” “That’s the truth, Autumn. But it is fine. May the best man win. I won't give up easily. Not until the man whom you choose would also love you with the same intensity as you.” He grabbed my dirty hands. “Autumn…I promised to cherish you forever.” “I already have some trauma when it comes to promises, Eric,” I said honestly. “So please don’t tell me anything about that. If you want me to believe it, you have to work for it.”
