Love Goes Astray Novels & Stories

There was no trace of the defeated, joyless man he became after being forced to marry me in our past life. This moment only solidified my decision. 'Noah, in this life, I will never love you again. If it's true love you want, I'll let you chase it. Just don't count me in,' I thought. I glanced at his face, now visibly twisted with frustration, and repeated my refusal. "If you didn't believe me the first time, I'll say it again. Noah, I will never be your girlfriend. Not now. Not ever." Each word left my mouth slowly with finality. His expression turned even darker.

Lisa was standing behind the door with her father beside her, Sasha was carrying her dress behind while Maria was throwing the flowers all her way walking behind them. The song started to play in the background as she made her way to Augustus. "WISE MAN SAY ONLY FOOLS RUSH IN BUT I CAN'T HELP FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU SHALL I STAY WOULD IT BE A SIN IF I CAN'T HELP FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU." Augustus's eyes were smiling while looking at her walking slowly to him, Lisa's face was glowing from the happiness and love as she stood at the stage in front of him and they both said their vows.

Staring at those mementos, my heart fell into pieces. I once thought we would be together until our hair turned gray. It felt like a cruel joke. Why hang onto love that was gone? I gathered up everything that reminded me of us and tossed it all away without a second thought. 'Edward, I'm done lowering myself to love you,' I told myself silently. After a restless night's sleep, Edward never showed up. He only dropped me a single message. [Jennifer, I didn't mean to snap at you. I'll come home with a gift later to make it up to you.]

Her tears shimmered against the light as she shouted back, “Then you made him feel! You made him love! And now you think you can take that back?” For the first time, the god faltered. A shadow — brief and almost human — crossed Travian’s face. The faintest flicker of sorrow cracked through his divine composure, but it vanished as quickly as it came. “Love,” he murmured, “is not meant for those who bridge heaven and flesh. It is the flaw that unravels all order.” Elara’s voice rose against the storm. “Then let it unravel!”

I whispered. The words felt dangerous. Forbidden. Real. The line stayed open, my mother listening, measuring. Finally, she spoke again—cool, distant, unchanged. “Then you will have to learn,” she said, “that love is a liability.” The call ended. I lowered the phone, staring at the empty street where John had vanished. Somewhere out there, he was running—fighting—surviving. And I was the reason he’d learned to stop trusting. I told myself I had done what I was raised to do.

"After all, how could the mighty Swan Prince order a lover to hurt his ex?" "No… no… That's not true…" His lips turned purple. "I didn't… I really didn't…" I stopped looking at him and said to Caelan, "Push me out. The air here is filthy." Caelan nodded gently, pushing the wheelchair toward the door. Behind me, Lucian's voice tore through the room, full of despair. "Astraea! You can't do this to me! I love you with all my heart!" I didn't look back.

It's the kind of person who throws into the crowd and no one will pay attention. The panic in his pale blue eyes hadn't disappeared yet. The scratches on his face had dried up into dark red streaks of blood. Under the dim light, bruises could still be seen under the chin and cheeks. His face now looked like he had just come out of some kind of fight, not to mention the pale face as if he was about to die. Perhaps Alex wouldn't have expected, later on, that person who "even threw into the crowd no one would pay attention" would make him fall madly in love.

When she was about to throw the key into the river, Mike tried to grab it but failed. We all looked at the key that dropped in the river. Mike's knuckles became white as he gripped the fence of the bridge. He glared at Katherine and punched the fence. She flinched. "Just leave," Rose told Katherine. She glared at us before doing as told. Mike tried hard to remove the love lock with his hand but couldn't. He raked his fingers through his hair as he looked at the surroundings. Furious, he picked up a stone from the ground and started hitting the lock with it.

"And I waited, for a whole year. Then you stopped called, stopped texting. What did you expect me to do? Wait on false hope?" "You never broke up with me". "I'm sorry, Miranda but its over. I love someone else, I'm sorry". I walked away from her and went to one of my cars unlocking the door as I got into it. I inserted the key into the ignition and start the engine driving the car. The gates rolled open and I drove out, I'm sorry, Miranda but I love someone else now, Chloe Houston. I'm in love with Miss Crazy. . . . . . TBC
