Promises Box Novels & Stories

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"

God bless me, I didn't get pushed out a second time. I was brought back to reality, it worked. “Usually, the boxes will be made by old magicians. The wooden box you saw earlier has an aspida-like appearance, as you can see.” “Aspida has many other features, it's more powerful, it only in case commands you are the owner you don't need to use MANA to protect it because this box only appears when there is an order from its owner.”

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.

“Paid to plant, paid to run, not paid to think.” Alessio plucked the burner from the guy’s pocket. No lock. An open thread blinked on the screen, last message sent three minutes ago: “ORCHID MISSED. NEW PLAY: WHITE BOX. —M” Elena’s stomach turned to ice. “White box.” “Package delivery,” Alessio said. “Inside signatures. This is a public room with private doors. We’re moving.”

“Lose it, and you are nothing.” One by one, the girls mounted the steps. Some swayed dangerously; others clenched their jaws and pushed forward. When Promise’s turn came, the box felt heavier than its size suggested. Her shoes wobbled on the marble edge of the stair. Each step carved fire into her calves, the strap biting into her ankle. She focused on her breath, one step at a time. Ajegunle stitched my spine, she reminded herself. At the midpoint, her balance faltered, the box tilting. Gasps rose from below. Promise pulled her shoulders back, steadying the weight until she reached the landing. Sweat soaked her back, but the box never fell.

He took a deep breath as her hand felt his heart beat faster. “My heart beats for you, Fatima Mendez,” he whispered. He grabbed the black box and opened it as she stood there in silence. She looked down at the box and saw it was a ring. “This is a promise ring. If you accept my feelings, I assure you that I will take care of you, be there for you, and treat you the best I can. I’ll make sure to make you the happiest woman alive,” he explained and took out the ring and grabbed her hand as she stared at him dumbfounded.

I squealed. He laughed "you know me better than that. Now this isn't really what it looks like but I feel obligated to give it to you" He pulled out a box from his pocket. I furrowed my brows together in confusion. He opened it and inside laid a beautiful diamond ring. It was rose gold with sterling silver and diamond wrapped around it with a huge one in the middle. "It's a promise ring" he said quickly. "Oh my goodness I love it!!" I squealed.

"Dinner, dancing, roses—the works. But standing here with you now, none of that matters." I pulled a small box from my pocket. Her eyes widened. "This isn't a proposal," I said quickly. "Not yet. It's a promise." I opened the box to reveal a platinum ring with a deep blue sapphire. "A promise that I'm in this—all in. That I'll fight for us every day. That I'll never push you away again." She stared at the ring, then at me. "Cassian..." "You don't have to answer now," I said. "Take all the time you need. I'm not going anywhere."

I just shook my head, clueless. She did not push for answers, instead offering a bit of comfort, "You're looking a bit pale. Why don't you go lie down for a bit? I'll take the little one for a bath, get her settled, and before you know it, it's bedtime." I nodded tiredly and watched her carry Ruby upstairs before collapsing onto the couch. I pulled out my phone and scrolled through the latest news. That was when I found out why Ruby's picture was plastered all over the mall. Alfred had gone and bought advertising space on the big screens in malls across the globe.

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.
