Once Married Novels & Stories

Now. … As soon as I stepped off the plane, news reports flooded in about Leander abandoning the wedding and leaving Dinah stranded at the altar. "They say Dinah left Leander years ago, and that's why he went abroad. So why would he leave her now, just before the wedding?" someone whispered. Ryan murmured, "Mamma, are they talking about Don Beaumont?" I let out a chuckle, slipping my hand into Ryan's as I led him out of the airport. "It doesn't involve us anymore."

"Oh Laura, being unmarried for both men and women depends on what kind of unmarried, right? Being divorced and unmarried is a bit unfair to Miss Fenton, isn't it?" Evelyn chuckled lightly, walking over in all her glittering finery, with Corey by her side. Everett's face slightly darkened. Laura, however, was very diplomatic and said with a smile, "Evelyn, times have changed. Whether it's a first or second marriage, it doesn't really matter if there are no children involved. Those who have been married before have learned from their previous failures and are often more considerate." Evelyn laughed, "Laura, you seem so open-minded. Why didn't I see you agree when my nephew came to propose befo

I finished. For the first time I wished I was still married because all my words would’ve held more water if I held up my ring and showed it to Ansel that I’m married already. “He’s not married, he’s still single.” Ansel answered and my jaw dropped as my mouth opened. “What?” “Cassian, he’s still very single, he called the engagement off and even the wedding didn’t take place.” He explained and I blinked as I tried to wrap my head around the new information.

He said,”I came to see you and plead with you to come back to me, " he held the hand she kept on the table. Appalled, Celine quickly withdrew her hand ,not knowing that someone had snapped their picture already. “Don't hold my hand again,I am a married woman now and you are not my husband,so you don't have a right to do that.”she reprimanded him. “Okay dear I am sorry but I want you to think about my proposal,I can take care of you,than the business man you married, we will have fun together just like before and I promise not to abuse you again.”

Ciara continued, leaning forward conspiratorially, “I’ve never actually seen him with anyone. Well, except his ex-fiancée.” The mention of Alaric’s ex caught me off guard, and I straightened in my seat, trying not to appear too curious. “He was engaged?” “Yeah, a long time ago,” Ciara said, nodding. “I only heard bits and pieces, but from what I gather, it didn’t end well. No one really knows the full story, though.” I tried to keep my expression neutral, but my mind was already spinning with questions. What kind of person was she? Why did they break up? Did Alaric ever talk about it?

"Are you always this neat?" "Yeah. Uncle Sam taught me, and since I live alone it's pretty easy to keep the place clean if you don't let things pile up." She changed subjects quickly. "Why aren't you married, Jaime? You might as well wear a t-shirt that says "Prime Husband Material"." "Honestly, I haven't found anyone I loved enough to consider marriage. I'm like a lot of animals. I intend to mate for life, so I have to be damn sure. I was in love with a woman once, but nothing came of it."

Camille interjected, and I turned to her with a smile. “Well,” I began as I tucked my hair behind my ear, “I don't really know because he never officially asked me out, but it seemed like he wanted to do that today but was interrupted by an uninvited guest who ruined the atmosphere.” “How could you think of getting back to him when you know he is married? Your fiancé recently died, and you are already clinging to another man. Aren't you ashamed?” Eunice snapped, and I wondered what her problem was exactly.

“I suppose it just caught us off guard. When Marcus told us about it, we hadn’t heard it from you two. We’ve always imagined you’d find someone with… a simpler past. Who has the same values and upbringing as you? Someone who was more like you, in that she’s never been married at all. Was that too much to expect as parents?” India nodded. “I understand. I do. But life doesn’t always work out the way we plan. I only wanted to be married once in my life; a second marriage wasn’t what I dreamed of either. But I’m happy I did get married a second time because, to me, Denver is my first and last marriage. The other one doesn't even count in my opinion.” Denver reached out, taking India’s hand, la

"I'm sorry! It's my fault because I lied to you. I didn't tell the truth. But I didn't cheat!" He even really followed me. I stopped walking for a moment because of what he said. "Believe me, I didn't cheat." Yeah, I know you didn't cheat. But can we still change what happened? Our marriage was annulled now. And one more thing, you already love someone else. I don’t know what this talk is for. Does he want closure? He signed our annulment. That is the closure.

“Who are you to tell me what to do?! I make decisions for myself! Not you! I'm not ready to face them yet! You know that! But what did you do?! What is this?!” I cried because of frustration. “Sorry, but Eunice, I found out that you are still married to Travis, that you are still husband and wife. What you said about your marriage only being valid for a year is not true. He's still your husband,” He said. I looked at Travis in disbelief. Married? I thought it was just for one year? “W-What does he mean, Travis? What does he mean we're still married? Didn't you say that our marriage is only valid for a year? So how can you still be my husband!?” I asked him.
