Pinkie Promise Sapphire Hale Novels & Stories

"It is time to inspect the bridal silver." The velvet cloth was lifted. Beneath it lay a stunning silver crown. Ninety-nine tiny silver bells were arranged across the crown in delicate layers, catching the morning light until they shimmered so brightly that no one could look away. My younger sister, Lily Jones, covered her mouth. Her eyes turned red at once. "All seven pieces are here," she whispered. "Julia, you can finally get married." A wave of admiration spread through the crowd. "I have not seen a silver crown that beautiful in decades. Logan really spent a fortune this time."

It had been going on for a while now, and we were all hoping they would work things out. “Well, we’re not fighting anymore,” she said, a small smile tugging at the corners of her lips. “In fact, we’re really, really good.” Cheryl raised an eyebrow. “How good are we talking here?” Alex hesitated for a moment, then pulled out her phone.

It was from Daniel Stonebridge, a rival billionaire known for his ruthless business tactics and insatiable hunger for power. As I stepped into the sleek and modern lobby of Stonebridge Tower, I couldn't help but feel a mix of awe and trepidation. The opulence of the surroundings was evident in every detail, from the polished marble floors to the shimmering chandeliers that hung from the ceiling.

I stepped inside the building, taking in the golden chandeliers, white walls decorated with black fabric, and an array of other colors over the classy Halloween-themed decorations scattered about. The ball was packed, and people of various outfits stood along the edges as the dance floor raged on with grinding bodies that swayed to the beat of the music. It would be easy for someone to get lost in a place like this, and the moment Julia seemed to notice a few people she knew, she let go of my arm and disappeared through the crowds. Which I was very grateful for. My feet carried me straight towards the bar where I spotted the shirtless bartender in just a bowtie, black pants, and a black mask

Wrapped around the stones was a dainty Celtic filigree design. “Do you hate it?” Clayton asked, his voice tinged with uncertainty as she stared at the ring, unmoving. “I love it,” Camden whispered, her eyes fixed on it, a mix of emotions swirling within her. “Is it an antique?” “It is,” Clayton replied, his smile returning. “It’s a Scottish Sapphire. They symbolize loyalty and are unique to the Isle of Lewis. I thought you might want something to remember this journey by.”

It sat in a custom platinum cathedral setting, the band wrapped in a river of micro-pavé diamonds. It wasn’t just a ring. It was a promise carved in light. “Will you marry me, Demetria Hernandez?” I asked, my voice thick with everything I felt but rarely said. Her breath caught. She froze. Her hands trembled around the bouquet, her mouth parting in disbelief. “YES!” she burst out, the word flying from her like she’d been holding it in for years.
