False Romantic Novels & Stories

“I still hate you, Mr. Fuenter. The fact that you saved me there doesn’t change our situation, you are still my fiancé and it sucks.” “Why do you hate being my fianceé that much?” “If you were me, you will hate it too. Imagine, a twenty-year-old girl being arranged for an engagement, it’s ridiculous and very old-fashioned.” I scoffed. “Let me tell you a secret, Ms. Fuenter.” He whispered as if no one should ever hear about it. “What is it?” I said, curiosity in my eyes. He gestured me to move closer to him and I did as he asked.

After making a mental note of making an appointment first thing tomorrow in the morning, I exit the gloomy toilet when Rosa face appears out of nowhere. "Angela?" Rosa said with a worried lace in her voice, "are you okay?" I waved my hand in anticipation for her to leave me alone but of course, Rosa De Luca is not that kind of person. "What's wrong with you?" she scanned me from head to toe, examining me as if I was caught doing something bad. Too lazy to answer her, my mouth lifted in a grin and she snickered. "Don't play with me!" she slapped my arm making me hiss in pain and back away from her but she pulled me closer to her body as she noticed me distancing from her and dragging me with

"You know nothing about me, Cairen. But I don't read romance. It's cliche.” I have never read a fiction book in my life. It's boring and gives me a headache. “Romance is not cliche. It shows true love and how the characters struggle in the name of love,” I remarked, biting my lips not to laugh. Zach wrinkled his nose like I was saying a nasty thing. "Why is it called fiction? It's not a real thing that happened. I would rather read about things that happened in real life than bullshit imagination," he grumpily said.

-"Yes. Why are you looking at me like this? Did you think that we won’t eventually mark each other?" -"I honestly hadn't thought of this possibility at all" Ι responded sincerely. -"You should have. We are mates. We are expected to mark each other". -"I do not want to mark you, let alone let you mark me". -"You do not have a choice sweetheart" he said complacently. -"Of course and I have. In addition, there is no such term in our agreement". -"Then all we need to do is redefine the terms". -"I don't want to redefine anything. I won't allow myself to be marked by someone who doesn't know how to be a mate" I said firmly.

The wolf family was sent away with their lives, but the father felt insulted by her intervention and was bothered the entire day. Unable to hide his displeasure, he summoned her to his private court and accused her of adultery. Astonished, the mother tried bravely to defend her honor, but her fate was sealed even before she stepped foot in his court. When she attempted to beckon to his better nature, one that he did not possess, he flung her across the room where she was pinned by a tusk hanging from the wall. Her lifeless body was tossed into the woods, unburied and without her honour as a Luna. Since then, I have detested my father’s anger above all things.

They were very happy, they said. But what happened? Eventually, Mommy also looked for others even when Daddy was still there. She cheated on her husband and on her family. Romantic love isn't real. It’s only pure sentiment, which eventually also disappears with time. So what's the use of exerting time on something that will eventually fade? You will just waste time. "Congrats to you!" Congrats, my ass. I doubt if they would even make it to ten years. I ran my finger across the table while waiting. The noise of the couple left subsided. I just looked up when I saw Enzo approaching with a tray. He stopped midway, though. She looked back. I also looked over there and saw the familiar group.

I don’t trust the word when people say it to me. His gaze narrowed. ‘Are you saying you love me?’ Lea ran the tip of her tongue over her parchment-dry lips. ‘It wouldn’t matter if I did or not. You don’t love me the way I want to be loved.’ He closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose. After a moment, he lowered his hand from his face to look at her. ‘No one can love anyone the way they want to be loved. The standard is set too high, fed by romantic fantasies encouraged by popular culture. It’s not real, Lea. What you feel for me is not real, it’s just a fantasy.’

“Still not find the one, huh?” “Oh, please.” Phoenix rolled her eyes with affection. “Alaric doesn’t believe in the one. He says ‘love’ is just a series of chemical impulses designed to trick us.” Christopher raised both brows. “Romantic. Typical of him” “Absolutely,” she drawled, the sarcasm thick in her tone. “I mean, it’s impressive how committed he is to never committing.” Gerard leaned back, grinning as he reached for the bottle of red on the table. “Wasn’t he supposed to visit last year?”

Famke puffed her cheeks as she exhaled at Royal’s question. “Truth?” “I don’t want anything else from you, not ever,” Royal said seriously. “I’m overwhelmed. Bram was right when he told me today my romantic feelings for you are only a week old. I mean, have I had more than one wicked dream where you featured? Yes. However, the actual relationship part, is so new and I know you’re ready to dive headfirst into whatever this is, but I’m not sure.” She stared at him waiting for any kind of negative reaction but all she received was an encouraging smile. “I can’t tell you I love you, Royal. For all we know tomorrow we’ll be at each other’s throats.”

Harper looked at her friend, her brows arched. “There's nothing attaching the both of you romantically. You do your part, make it believable for just one year, get your money and that's the end. You're not falling in love Harper, he's not asking you to fall in love. It's a win-win for the both of you.” Harper was quiet. She was thinking very hard. It was true what Rain said. They weren't going to fall in love and according to the contract, falling in love was out of it. It was a breach.
