Love Better Than Immortality Novels & Stories

Haldir asked as his eyes darted around his rickety hovel. Michael gave Haldir an apologetic look of understanding because he'd had a similar gift bestowed on him many, many millennium ago. "You will live among the Others in their world. Since you can never really be like them because you were born of human blood, the gods gifted you immortality. No weapon ever used against you will succeed, you will not age and you will never know illness." Haldir laughed out in his raspy, throaty way. "That is quite a gift."

It was wonderful to be with him for so many years, to be loved and cherished. I am living proof that even the worst bitch of all can find true love. From time to time I visit Cade, as he is the only one who is immortal like I am, and we have our fun, the way we both like it, but we stick to that, to friends with benefits. Sometimes I wonder why he didn't get a new wife, someone with whom to share his throne. I guess, eternal love is not a thing, just temporary love, as normal life is short, and you must live it to the fullest.

"But I want to be the immortal man that you'd choose to spend eternity with." Win brow furrowed. "But why me? You've been alive for so long . . . why would you do this for me?" It was a question that Adom has studiously avoided thinking of much less answering for the better part of three years. "I do not know if I really understand what love is, Win. Hell is the origin of hatred, anger, and cruelty. There is no place for love there—it is snuffed out in an instant. I lived for so long in misery without even knowing that there was any other way to be. But you . . . you showed me something else, something so beautiful that I shudder to think of it. I would not ask this of you as a mortal. Every

“Hector can't come back anymore, it's his choice. Aubrey, come back to hell with me, live a carefree life, and help me manage everything, I will grant you immortality and greatness like a thousand other demigods; then you will be honored in the history books as Persuaus or Jason or even Achille.” “Immortal…” Aubrey tearfully looked at Hades with helpless eyes, he sat down on the ground, his whole body relaxed. “Do you think everyone in this world needs immortality. Do you know how much Hector suffered while living an immortal life? Immortality is not a gift, it is a punishment, the confinement of human greed. Do you have to see the person you love die in front of you, but you can't die? That

"The time has come to transcend the limitations of our past. We must recognize that our differences are not weaknesses but opportunities for growth and understanding. Together, we can build a world where acceptance and compassion triumph over fear and hatred." Their words hung in the air, seemingly suspended between hope and doubt. Fleur could see the internal struggle within their listeners, torn between the familiarity of conflict and the unknown possibilities of peace. Then, an elderly immortal, bearing the scars of battles long fought, stepped forward. His weathered face held a mix of weariness and wisdom. "I have seen the depths of despair and the heights of triumph," he spoke, his voic

The dark clouds flashed with electric light. “I did not mind him biting me as we made love. But I became tired, so tired, of cleaning my own blood off the walls and floors. Not to mention calming him down when he wanted to kill anyone who even looked at me the wrong way. Love isn’t possible without compromise, but the longer you’ve been at your habits, the harder it is to change them. For a mortal, that’s difficult enough. For an immortal, who has been set in his ways for centuries, it’s nearly impossible.”

"You know what happened to me, and how hard I had to fight to get here, so why would you, of all people, ask me to give up my immortality?" "Because I love you." He whispered, tilting my chin up so he could see my face. "It's not love, you want to possess me, that is all." I told him, pushing his hand away. "How many times do I have to tell you, you are different? I just want to be with you." "You say that now, but when you get what you want, you will turn away like everyone else and I will be stuck with the consequences." “Fight it all you want now, but you will give in, eventually.”

The hardening between his legs, the way his fangs elongated just from her scent, alerted him to just how inviting she was to him. She felt it to. The heavy scent of her arousal wafted towards him, pungent yet sweet. Ripples of desire washed over her flesh, cheeks flushing. Yet, she denied it. Of course she would. They had only just met. Being immortal, Malik had learned long ago that life was fleeting. It was best to simply take what you wanted, when you wanted it. But with Annabelle, Malik found himself unable to take what he desired from her. He ached to hear words of acceptance fall from her tongue. Until that moment, he would do nothing to break her.

I told him and he quickly shakes his head and says, “You don’t mean that.” “Yes, Tyler I do. I just want happiness in my life for once. When I got here after school, I thought I might have found that with you, but I quickly found out I was wrong. And then I ran off to better myself for you and I spent all that time away from you working my ass off and I stayed pure for you. But I know that wasn’t the case for you now that I became an immortal. I realize now why you slept with the red head in your office. The blood tastes so much better when mixed with their pleasure.” I say and Tyler growls at me.

“You took his immortality.” Forever had an expiry date.
