Promise For Me Novels & Stories

I could still feel it under my skin—like a signature, like a promise, like the moment a match thinks about being struck and decides it wants to be fire. “Paper,” I said softly, the word leaving a temporary fog on the window. “Promises.” And because I refused, on principle, to be the first to look away, I stood and let the city look back until dawn found us both.

I'd already become a potential threat in his eyes. "Understood," I said, turning for the stairs. "Wait," Ryder called after me. "I need you to do something." I stopped with my back to him and waited. What would he want me to give up this time for the so-called greater good? "Call off tomorrow's pre-ceremony photo shoot," Ryder said. His voice echoed through the living room. I turned to him, keeping my face blank. I nodded. "Fine. I'll let the photographer know."

Clide’s eyes connected with mine, they weren’t pleading but commanding. “When I tell you this must be done, I mean it. All of our lives depend on it. I wish I could be more honest with you but…” He glanced at Ashly “I made a promise to her. I cannot and will not break that promise.” He hit the side of the metal bed frame with a closed fist. I jumped back “Alpha…” I glanced at Ashly “the Luna supported my decision too…” He slammed his fist again “Dam it Laura!” I felt hot tears stream down my face as my breathing quickened.

"Shower?" I nodded looking up at him, meeting his lips, "you might have to carry me." Seth laughed, "maybe carry you back." I frowned up at him, "don't leave me tomorrow." He kissed my forehead, " I'll be back I promise. Two weeks, I'll do whatever it takes to come back."

You promised" "He doesn't deserve you, princess. Let him go" "I can't. I love him and we promised to be together forever" "Promises are meant to be broken, Princess." "But..... But if I let him go then I'll be all alone." "You've never been alone Princess. I'm here" "But I can't even see you" "That is because you don't want to see me. Open your eyes and look at me. Really look"

She smiled. “What’s your promise?” Eileen asked. She gulped and smiled at her. “We both have forbidden promises. Do you know anything about them?” Tony asked. Eileen shook her head, she can’t tell them what she knows about Luke. “There were two types of forbidden promises: the killing promise and the strengthening promise. Forbidden promises are different from ordinary promises. Forbidden promises are a rare type of magic, you can only have a forbidden promise if it’s running to your blood. One of the forbidden promises, which is the strengthening promise, is running in our blood.” She explained.

Well, maybe that is the only way she believes people. "Yes, I promise," I reply to her. "So, what's with you and promise? You always ask for a promise whenever we are talking," I ask her out of curiosity, even though I know that it's crazy. "That's the only way I get to believe what people say to me," She shrugs as I expected, and I scoff. Does she think people will always keep their promises to her just because they made the promise? I ask myself and shake my head. She is still a kid, so she definitely does not know anything about life.

I knew what she trying to say but this is not possible in this life, I can't marry because there's nothing like love exits, it's fake, no girl in this world can live happily with me. "Maa, ask for my life I will give you, happily but not this," I stated, coldly. "I know, and I shouldn't force you if I wasn't in this condition but I am in my death bed, and I want to keep my promise that I made to my friend years ago, " She responds. "What promise?" I ask, puzzled. "That when his daughter will be 18 you will marry her and give her a better life despite how her parents lived in poverty." She explains.

how many promises had been broken before me? And how many would be broken still?

I will make you proud; I promise you that. . #TBC
