Beautifully Broken Rings Novels & Stories

“This is payback, Mira. What were you thinking while destroying the sacred artifact? I twitched, trying to break free from the man's embrace, but he held tight. “The darkness has been imprisoned for so many years, and now, having broken free, it will devour all of you. You worthless creatures of the Firstborn are not worthy of her power... I fluttered in vain in male hands. He laughed softly in my ear, enjoying my helplessness. Darkness hit the wooden frame, and from this blow the window pane was covered with a fine grid of cracks. I shifted my gaze to our entwined hands and only now noticed a massive ring on the middle finger of the man. A silver raven was engraved on the black stone. The n

"You are an amazing person whether you see it or not. You see everything you've been through as bad luck but I see it as struggles that you made it through and became stronger from. I'm not scared of your past, Tiffany." Tiffany exhaled through her noes. She held a worrisome and somewhat sad look on her face which made my chest ache because I knew she was finding it hard to believe and accept that someone was willing to love her despite the baggage she was carrying. "Maybe you're right," she finally said, looking at me with soft eyes. "But... I'm broken and messed up and have pieces of me all over the place. That's not something anybody should have to deal with, Noah."

Noel clicked his tongue in frustration, "Please ask the cops to check the house once again—every single inch of it. I'll go take a look outside." Ms. Elisa nodded and watched him go out of the house. He carefully walked to backyard of the house and began scanning the place bit by bit. While he was examining the place, the glimmer of an object caught his eye among the bushes in the backyard. His eyes narrowed as he crouched closer to the bushes and parted them with his hand, only to see a golden pendant resting on the grass attached to a silver chain. Its half was missing while the other part remained with the pendant.

“I apologise if I caused you any offense. Trade has been slow in the past months, and as time and age carve away at me, I’ve started to find that objects are more powerful when imbued with emotion.” Slowly, Lily uncurled her fist. “You may see it, if you like.” At his nod, she brought her hand closer. She did not remove the ring, but tilted it back and forth. It shimmered softly in the flickering light of the fire and the candles spitting wax upon the hearth. “It was my mother’s,” she said, her voice little more than a whisper. “She… died. My dad gave me the ring. And then…” her voice wobbled, “I left.”

Brandon Kim’s last statement, but he kept a straight face, acting as if he wasn’t interested. “Remember this, Skylar. Your bond cannot be broken at will. You and your partner are permanently bound. The only way to break that bond is through death. This is clearly different from the typical concept of an Alpha and Omega fated pair because you are not an Alpha. Anyway, I’m done talking to you. I have to get back to work. Rest now." Dr. Brandon Kim walked out of Skylar’s room, shaking his head. Just before he disappeared behind the door, Skylar faintly heard him mutter.

"The doctor said she just needs to rest." "Good to hear." He watched me packing and frowned. "You're not really leaving over a necklace, are you?" A necklace? I stopped and looked at him. "In your eyes, that was just a necklace?" "That's not what I meant…" He looked flustered. "I know it was important, but it's broken. We can find the best craftsman to fix it. There must be some magic that can repair it perfectly…" "Repair it?" I laughed, a cold, empty sound. "Austen, some things, once they're broken, stay broken."

The great doors close with a sound like breaking bones, leaving me alone with the ache of this cursed crown and the weight of a kingdom built on graves. The crown itself pulses against my temples, its once-brilliant gold now tarnished to the color of old blood. It used to shine like captured sunlight, a beacon of hope and righteous rule. Now it hums with an endless network of hairline cracks, each fracture a spider's thread of corruption spreading deeper into the metal and into me. Each break is a reminder that nothing in this world remains unbroken: not thrones built on noble intentions, not bloodlines stretching back to heroes of legend, not oaths sworn under starlight with hearts full of

“Fine. You want me to say it? To confess to some fantasy crime? Sorry, Miley, but I don’t play your games.” “Then let me remind you.” My voice shakes, not with weakness but with the storm ripping through me. “The ring wasn’t just jewelry. Each petal, each gemstone—delicate, beautiful—but the base? Brownish blue. Laced with a poison so subtle it eats you from the inside out. Not enough to kill quickly. Just enough to weaken, day by day, until her body gave out. A perfect murder disguised as a gift.” Her face goes pale, the color draining so fast it’s almost beautiful. She doesn’t speak.

Ethan had always been the kind of person who doesn't give up easily. Her fingers lingered above the ribbon, pausing for a fleeting moment. Taking a deep breath, she gently untied it, removing the layers of the wrapping. Her pulse quickened as the box gradually opened, disclosing its contents. Inside lay a fragile crystal sculpture-a stunning, detailed representation of a wolf howling at the moon. Cecilia's breath was halted in her throat. She extended her hand, her fingertips gliding over the sleek surface of the crystal. The artwork was breathtaking, graceful in its straightforwardness, yet the meaning behind it was obvious.

Aubrey said confidently. “This girl,” Grandma said as she pulled the chair. “I swear you will be the end of everyone if it happens that the ring had landed into the wrong hands.” Aubrey glared at her grandmother, “Which wrong hands' grandma? According to moon goddess rules, that ring can only be owned by three people, the chosen ones and that is us; I and Angelo, you or any other person from Diana's hunters generation. We are the only exciting members of Diana's hunters generation and here, Angelo is the chosen one. So what I mean if the ring is among the three of us, it can't get lost.”
