Daughters Of The Promise 소설 & 이야기

She stepped forward, reaching for the principal’s leg. "Sir, I really want to go to school. Please, I promise I’ll study hard…" Before she could finish, the principal recoiled as if he had touched something filthy and shoved both mother and daughter away. "Out, out, out! Throw them out of the school!" he shouted, trembling with anger. "We are responsible for all our students. There’s no way we would admit someone like this!" Before they could even react, security guards dragged them out and tossed them onto the street.

I knew what she trying to say but this is not possible in this life, I can't marry because there's nothing like love exits, it's fake, no girl in this world can live happily with me. "Maa, ask for my life I will give you, happily but not this," I stated, coldly. "I know, and I shouldn't force you if I wasn't in this condition but I am in my death bed, and I want to keep my promise that I made to my friend years ago, " She responds. "What promise?" I ask, puzzled. "That when his daughter will be 18 you will marry her and give her a better life despite how her parents lived in poverty." She explains.

The song swelled, and a voice emerged, not a call but a presence, warm yet vast: “Jessica, heart of the nexus, claim your promise.” A figure materialized, not a weaver or a shadow, but a woman, her form woven from prismatic light, her face shifting between Jessica’s mother, Echo, and herself, her eyes a kaleidoscope of hope and sorrow. “I am Auris,” she said, her voice the song’s crescendo, resonating with love and warning. “The Promise Weaver. You hold the nexus, Jessica, but its future is unwoven. Choose its path, and weave your place.” Kade’s growl was soft, his hand brushing Jessica’s, his voice raw with devotion. “Choose? Jess, you’ve carried us this far. Whatever this is, we’re with yo

“I'll do it, for both of us! “I say, caressing my little one’s face. Carol nods her head and we put the cardboard house back together. My daughter smiles brightly every time she has something like that to do. She has always been creative and likes to participate in projects at school and I love helping her. Carol is without a doubt my best partner and we are inseparable. In fact, I don't intend to ever get married again, because I don't trust men. Not even! I don't want to risk going through what I went through again. I wouldn't take that risk. LUCIEN

"It's fine. Just go ahead and take Isabelle home. Otherwise, you're gonna have to pick her up when we're halfway there." Douglas was clearly taken aback, probably because he hadn't expected me to be so understanding. He lowered his head, planting a kiss on my cheek. "You really are becoming more and more understanding, sweetheart." I wasn't being understanding. I just couldn't be bothered to argue anymore. This was where my six years of devotion came to an end. After stepping out of the door, I took my phone out, my hands shaking. "Mom, Dad, I've thought it through. I'll proceed with the marriage alliance with Leonard Kane."

“S-see, t-the t-t-thing is—“ Joe brushed his hand through his thin brown hair, his dark eyes blinking out of fear. “It’s only ten-thousand.” I read out loud, frowning. “You don’t have it?” I cleared my throat, surprised as Joe pulled a disgusted face. “Stay out of it, little girl.” He snarled. “Men are handling business.” This didn’t faze me, and it never did. I was prepared for this and knew I had to earn my respect. People saw me as young and inexperienced, and I had to prove them wrong. “So you don’t have the money, but you have a wife and two daughters.” I squinted, reading through the notes. “Livia, 24—Paloma, 22—Anastasia, 18—Clara, 15“

That is the promise I will never forget. THE END

Burying my face in my arm, I closed my eyes and let the tears fall. “Let me help. Let me do something…please…” I shook my head. “Lo único que puedes hacer por mí es dejarme ir.” [The only thing you can do for me is to let me go.] His hand froze on my back, and I could feel it clench slightly. “No sé si puedo prometer eso.” [I don’t know if I can promise that.] Smiling and chuckling this time, I lifted my head up and looked back at the dancers twirling to the music.“No cumples las promesas de todos modos.” [You don’t keep promises anyways.]

“I want your promise though. If I find your mate, then you must swear an oath to me that you'll never hurt anyone I care about ever again. Do we have a deal?” Lizzie looks at me in the most skeptical way. I know she doesn't think that I can find her mate. Butif I can, it may be the only way that I can ever truly be free. So, if there's even a chance, I need to try. “We have a deal,” she says, shaking my hand. “If you can find me a mate that I love more than you, then I will give you an oath that I won't harm anyone you care about again.”

“I know you and understand that you are just a kid, you might even forget many things when you grow up, but I know you will never forget this day… The day that your parents and Pack members were burned to death. Thus, I also know that you will never forget what I just told you. But my child, you will have to promise me something… Never reject him when you find him. No matter what, you must protect and be there for him always. And listen, even if you meet hundreds of Mates in the future but without the name Ashton, then you will have to know that they are not your Promise Mate.” The queen's mother said to the little boy, who was just looking at her as if he could understand what the queen was
