Novel & Cerita Promise In Love

“Only death will do us part.” Hearing these words, a wave of relief washed over her. She gazed into his eyes, feeling the sincerity of his promise resonate within her. With her heart racing, she pulled him closer and kissed him deeply, pouring all her love and gratitude into that single, passionate moment. It was a kiss that spoke of trust, hope, and an unbreakable bond—a promise sealed with love.

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 slow down slightly, my shoes hitting the gravel path as the word echoes in my head. Love. Such a small word with big consequences, a kind of promise. Do I love him? The idea feels ridiculous, dangerous fuck probably impossible. And yet the thought of Lorenzo isn’t that simple anymore. It hasn’t been for a while. Somewhere between our early morning runs, the arguments about the house renovations, the quiet moments where he actually listened to me and our honest talks, something changed. I care about him obviously more than I should if I am willing to launch myself at him. The thought sends a zap of arousal through my body.

I had no dreams of climbing ladders or becoming someone important—just a desire for a quiet, content life. I'd followed Ted to Eldonfield because he was building his career here. I had been convinced that if I stayed by his side long enough, he'd eventually see me. But love, it turned out, couldn't be forced through sheer persistence. On my way to the hotel, a curbside bookstore was blasting lyrics that struck a chord. "I don't care what they say, I'm in love with you. They try to pull me away, but they don't know the truth. My heart's crippled by the vein, and I can't stop crying..."

She didn't know if he would come back to her, it was as if she was just hoping to get snow in the Philippines. "I would love to—" "You love to?" "I want you to promise me that you’ll come back," she whispered. She knows that’s impossible, she just wanted to hear it from Josh. She wants to hold on to his promise. “Please, promise me.” “Promise, I’ll be back. I'll be back; I'll get you and your siblings.” What she was about to say was cut off when he touched her lips to her. It was enough for her to hear his promise. She was stunned for only a few seconds and was able to respond to every movement of his lips.

"Don't be scared. I've got your back from now on." He remembered twenty. Shot up in some bloody family mess, barely breathing in a hospital bed. Everyone counted him out. Already moving on to other heirs. But Arianna? She never left. The doctor had warned her he might never wake up. She just shook her head and said, "He will. He promised to marry me." She stayed the whole month. And when he finally opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was her face—soaked in tears. He'd sworn right then to make her the happiest woman alive.

Not a threat. Not a warning. A promise.

So many stories he never had the chance to tell me. "They made a promise to each other," Attorney Castillo continued quietly. I slowly lifted my eyes toward him. His expression had suddenly become serious. "A promise they both intended to keep..." He paused. "...even after death."

He was getting under my skin and I didn’t want to have him know it. “We don’t know if I am pregnant yet and there is no way in hell that you are going to tell me what to do” I retorted. “I said that you are not going back to your old pack simply because it is not safe there. If you really feel like you don’t want to be here, then go somewhere else, just not there. I won’t be able to live if I find out that something might have happened to you and I am unable to protect you. After all, all those years ago when you were born and I was only seven years old, I made a promise that I will protect you with my life and I do not intend on breaking that promise any time soon” Rowan said.

He was not sure what he wanted from her. He was obviously excited by her fear, yet bothered by it. “Who marries just because of a childhood promise. Why is mine coming to hunt? I also promised to give my childhood neighbor four children, is he also going to pop out?” she blurted and his cold gaze swept over her. “Your mouth is really quick, isn’t it? It moves before your brain can keep up,” he said. “I’m sorry,” she lowered her head. “I won’t kill you? At least not to keep my secret,” he said in frustration.
