I Never Meant To Hurt You Novels & Stories

I reached out to touch her. She pulled away from me, her eyes brimming with tears and anger. Unease swept through me. It was never my intention to hurt her, but why do I feel like I'm making things worse? "I never meant to hurt you," I rasped. "I'm trying—" "Try harder," she snapped in a harsh voice. "Because I'm done pretending that this... whatever this is... doesn't feel like a lie." She turned on her heel and stormed out of the house.

“Please… You are hurting me.” His arms flew away from my shoulders as if burnt, a look of guilt marring his handsome features, “ I’m sorry Celene. I didn't mean to hurt you. It's just I want us to be together and I'm doing everything I can to do it. But you won't even let me explain. It's not fair on me.”

But then her expression hardened, her jaw setting in a familiar stubborn line. "I'm not asking for your forgiveness, Ivy," Irene said, her voice cold. "I'm just asking you to understand." "Trauma doesn't give you the right to hurt me, Irene," Ivy spat. "I was traumatized; it wasn't just you. Yes, trauma is unfair, but you have to own up to your actions. There’s no excuse for hurting others. It's your duty to acknowledge the pain you've caused, and to make amends." Ivy's eyes locked onto Irene's, her gaze unwavering. "Anything less is just cowardice."

She reaches out to me, sadness in her eyes as she says "No. Don't say that" I try my best not to grin as I put a sad face "I hurt you. How can I ever live that down?"

“Sylvia…” “You know I still deal with the trauma,” I said. “You don’t get to say ‘let’s forget the past’ when you weren’t the one breaking.” He stepped closer. “I never meant to hurt you.” “I know,” I whispered. “That’s the problem.” He looked confused. “You hurt me without meaning to,” I said. “And that makes it worse.” Silence stretched between us. I could feel my heart racing, my throat tightening. I needed to say it. I needed to say the thing that would make him stop fighting.

I want to be free of you, Isaiah. Oh God, I can't believe I actually said that to him. What was I thinking?! “I didn’t mean to hurt you that night,” I said quietly. “I… I didn't mean what I said.” “I know, baby girl,” He hummed, running his fingers soothingly over my scalp. “You were hurting,” “I'm always hurting,” I murmured, sighing when he began rinsing my hair. “How long?” He asked. “What?” “For how long did that bastard touch you?”

“I never meant to hurt you. I just—” “STOP IT!” Maya’s scream exploded through the room. Both of them flinched. “I don’t want to hear another word from your filthy mouth!” Maya shouted, her entire body shaking now. Sixteen years of friendship. Sixteen years.

Jeffrey moved to strike him, but I stopped him with a hand. I shook off Harry's grip and said in a sharp tone, "My happiness has nothing to do with you. You said you never loved me, so why are you clinging to me now?" His body stiffened. After a moment, he stammered, "I only said those things out of anger because you hurt Ember's arm." A bitter laugh escaped me. "Harry, you didn't even bother to check before accusing me. From the moment you slapped me, whatever was between us ended. From now on, we'll go our separate ways."
