Love After Heartbreak Novels & Stories

She looks so fragile in that moment. So this is what he likes? My eyes snap to hers. The look in her eyes says otherwise. Love? “I’m not sure you’re capable of that, Sharon,” I say. “You only know how to love yourself.” Silence settles between us. Cold. Final. “We’re over,” I say, pulling the ring off my finger and throwing it at him. I pick up my purse. My luggage. And walk toward the door. “You’re unlovable, Anastasia,” Tristian says behind me. “Men don’t like women like you.”

I had already lost my heart, it just a still piece of beating organ placed in my chest, it is broken, not completely free of emotion of affection and love but is trying hard to forget it's past and tormenting reality; the present. "I don't love you. I could not marry you. Why are you not understanding this Allen? We can't be married. How could you like me, even if you did like me, I am broken and miserable, my heart is badly bruised and it won't accept love and affection, it is scared of these sacred emotions. By talking about all this you are just tormenting me more."

Lisa* "You won't touch me? Why are you lying? See, Oscar," I started, trying not to get emotional before him. I moved into the room after he opened the door. "What is it?" He asked. "I... I love you and it is obvious. Yes, I accept that I do but please don't hurt me. I experienced heartbreak once and it was..." I broke down and he put my face into his body for a hug. "Don't cry," "I should, it shows how much pain and resentment I felt about keeping a relationship with another man."

"Long before the contracts. Long before the secrets, the betrayal, and the blue box. I loved the girl who used to ruin my black coffee with extra sugar. I loved the girl who fought me over Scrabble tiles on the dorm room floor. I loved you before I even knew what love was supposed to look like." Tears streamed down my face unabated, my chest aching with an overwhelming mixture of intense sorrow and profound, beautiful clarity. For weeks, I had believed our marriage was a cold, loveless accident born of duty and tragedy. But standing here under the London sky, listening to his heartbeat beneath my palm, I finally understood the truth. There was love here. Real, deep, indestructible love that

He stammered, "H-Honey, what are you talking about? Divorce? You can't be serious! No way!" I turned to gaze out the window, refusing to look at him. I stated flatly, "Let's just end this, Reynold. You don't love me anymore, and I've given up on you. If we keep going, all we'll do is destroy each other." His eyes turned bloodshot as he angrily threw the papers onto the bed. He shouted, "No! I refuse to sign the papers!" He tried to say more, but Brian walked in and kicked him out, citing that he was disturbing the patient. Outside my room, Reynold continued his frustrated ranting.

They joined in together in harmony. “Oh how much hurt can one heart take before it grows cold and has to break. How much of a fool could I have been too see what she needed but never give in. How could I have let her break when all she wanted was for me to stay. Why can’t I rewind the time to when I was hers and she was mine. I guess that’s my lesson to learn love is the only thing that makes a heart burn.” Nikolai finishes the last part alone.

Since that's the only other place she knows the road to. I kept on walking for a while my mind drifting off to when she shouted I love you, and I swear I felt my heart in my throat when I heard her. She can't love me, I don't have it in me to love anyone back... I tried the first time but it was all in vain. It was terrible actually, it ended like a fireworks show. Jade, just the thought of her name made my jaw clenched and unclenched unknowingly. That bitch, I trusted her with my life, but she came back to bite my fucking ass hard ripping off my heart in the process...

"You betrayed everyone, Ethan. You let your thirst for revenge put you to this pain you brought upon me and yourself. I loved you, Ethan, I loved you genuinely.” I wiped my tears and said boldly. “But not anymore. I hate you so much that if I were to hold a gun I would kill you myself." As I spoke, a bitter taste laid on my tongue. The fact that the man I had formerly loved had orchestrated a crooked game of manipulation and dishonesty left scars that ran deeper than any physical crack. "You destroyed everything, Ethan. I can not forgive you for that."

“Grace… I don’t know. Ethan was really clear about you staying away for a while.” “I know, I know,” Grace said quickly, her voice pleading. “But, Leah, you’re my friend.

I can’t give up on him, not when I know in my heart that we’re meant to be together.” Leah closed her eyes, leaning her elbow on the table and pinching the bridge of her nose. “Grace, this isn’t just about what you want. You went too far. You can’t force someone to love you.”
