Loveless Marriages Novels & Stories

“I know the reality of it all. I’ve never been an attractive girl-” “You’re a very lovely girl,” I interrupted her, and I leaned forward in my seat. “I promise, Kiara, I’m telling you the truth. You’re so much more than you think you are.” “That’s kind of you to say,” she remarked, seeming like she didn’t believe me. “My father has always told me that love wasn’t necessary in a marriage. He told me he wasn’t in love with my mother when they got married, but their marriage was good anyway. Is that true? Are loveless marriages able to work?”

A friendly personality, always smiling—that figure was no longer to be found by her. There was only a cold, untouchable, and rough figure that she now encountered—a figure who desperately wanted to make her suffer continuously. Her heart could not lie that there was still a tiny spark of feeling that might continuously grow if she stayed with the man. Tears flowed down her cheeks, which she instantly wiped away. "Renata... where are you," Melvin mumbled in his sleep, making her tears instantly flow uncontrollably again. She had never imagined that the man forced her to marry him simply because his lover had left a week before the wedding. She had not imagined that there was a third person in

Anything and everything, we never ran out of topics—celebrities, the fashion industry, music, business, school gossip, until we ended up discussing love. "Maybe that's how it is," I said, looking into the distance, as our conversation shifted to loveless marriages—those unions where people come together for money, convenience, or status but lack love, like mine with Adam. "What do you think?" I asked, looking at her. "Is that how you see it?" I nodded. "Why? So, you don't believe there's someone out there meant for you?" I laughed at her statement. "That's bullshit, Kyra. I thought you learned that by now."

For the last three months, everything had happened so fast and I couldn't help myself from worrying that it will all fall apart. We had bought a larger apartment where we had room for the kids to run around. Thick walls for mecael and I and a larger kitchen and office for Phoebe. Alex had finally admitted to his feelings. Though he was thrown into a turmoil when Liz proposed out of nowhere,he got after it soon enough and said yes. They had a church wedding which obviously came as a surprise to all of us. None of the boys have visited Heloriet ever since he was taken away. We received the news that he had been admitted to one of the largest psych wards on the world. I was certain that that wa

"Our marriage didn't start in a good term. Grandpa just forced us. He wrote it in his will. He will give all his assets to charity If I don't marry Mara before the end of the month after his accident, "This woman has been mean for two months. She gave me a chance a month ago." "Who would believe that you love me after seeing how badly in love are you with Loren?" "Tokki, the day I found out that you are Ara and I found out what Loren did to Grandpa, she was already out in the picture. Yes, I loved her before, but I love you first, and you'll always be in my heart forever. You are the first woman I love, and no one can change that."

"Without friends and a wedding party, it wouldn't feel quite real, would it?" No, it wouldn't, Thomas begrudgingly admitted to himself. And therein lay the crux of the matter. This marriage, devoid of genuine affection and commitment, was nothing more than a pragmatic arrangement, a means to an end. Yet, as he gazed into Leah's pleading eyes, a pang of guilt gnawed at his conscience. Despite his reservations, he couldn't ignore the longing in her voice, the desire for a semblance of normalcy and authenticity in what was otherwise a charade.

She turned and went up the stairs, vanishing into the sanctum of her and Dad's room, leaving us in a thick silence. The sound of her footsteps had hardly dissipated when Josh, the eternal opportunist, made his move. "Fixed marriage? Man, you're seriously getting the bad end of the deal. Your marriage is like a subscription package, you understand? Limited-time offer," he said, attempting a joke, which fell on deaf ears amidst the charged air. He caught a sharp backhand from me, the blow making him jump. "Ouch!" he exclaimed, rubbing the back of his head, his eyes widening in mock outrage.

Amari cries, while the other woman waves her hand dismissively. “Nonsense! We all know that the sneaky Thomas tricked her into this marriage.” She sounds angry for some reason. I have a feeling that she does not like me much. “Tricked or not, they are married and in love by the looks of it. You are just jealous that someone snatched Amari,” Mrs Gail says while Amari avoids my eyes. “Tricked marriage is not real!” the woman snaps at Mrs Gail. “Marriage is sacred, Sister Harvey. Get over your prejudice and be happy that Amari has found her prince,” Mrs Gail lashes out at the other woman before mischievously winking at me and adding “I will pray for you to find peace with that, my dear sister.”

“Aria, you and I both know that marriage is nothing but a business alliance. You don’t love him. You can’t.” Her lips curved into a dangerous smile. “And what makes you so sure I didn’t learn to?” “Because I know you!” Lucas said, stepping closer. His voice cracked with frustration. “You hate being caged. You crave freedom. Damian Cross isn’t the man for you he’s your jailer.” Aria tilted her head, voice calm but sharp. “You sound awfully passionate for someone who lost me years ago.” “I didn’t lose you,” Lucas said firmly. “Your parents forced you to marry him. I tried to fight it, remember? But you gave up.”

Lolita said referring to Zoëlla. “ We regretted not fighting for love when he forced us, we started in loveless marriages for years until love developed, it's not that we currently don't love our spouses but if we married them out of love, we would have been much happier even though we're happy now." Estephan took a bite out of his food. “He's disowning me guys." He said. “Its one of the sacrifice for love, we've got you, every decision you make, we are with you. Your company is doing very well, you would be fine." Lolita advised.
