Taryn Asher No Wedding Ring Novels & Stories

The other couples turned to look. Asher reached into his pocket and pulled out a small velvet box. "Amelia Brooks," he said. "I know we signed a contract. I know we said one year. I know this is fast and crazy and probably a little stupid." He opened the box. The ring was beautiful. A round diamond set in platinum, flanked by two smaller stones. It caught the candlelight and threw tiny prisms across the walls. "But I don't want a contract marriage," he said. "I want a real one. With you."

"I guess Trevor still has a lot of touring to promote it after the movie, so I won't rush him into marriage." Ashley cleared her throat. When the two people in front of her turned to look at her, she shyly showed her finger. A white gold ring with a star-shaped diamond sparkled on it. "I think it'll be me and Tristan first," Ashley said quietly. Sonya and Regina were stunned for a moment, then both hugged Ashley simultaneously, pressing her between them in a tight embrace. "Oh, I'm so happy," Regina said. "Finally, there'll be someone who can tell Tristan off if he takes too long shifts at the hospital."

Just her, and me, and a ring I had chosen with the full understanding of what it meant to offer it. "I kept you hidden for four years," I said. "And I have thought about that every single day since you walked away from me. I am not going to ask you to forget that. I am going to spend every day making sure you know that the man who did that no longer exists, and that the man who is here now intends to spend his life making sure you are never hidden from anything again." She was very still. "Ayesha Adams," I said. "Will you marry me."

She has not done an ultrasound yet because she wants to surprise the child's gender. “Sha-sha! You are getting more beautiful!” Ally said happily and hugged her. The two had just arrived and Atasha was taking care of other things. “I think it's natural for me since I am a woman, right?” she said with a smile that made them laugh. The rehearsal has started but it is not enough. “Eldrith where is your best man and other partners of your bridesmaids?” Atasha asked him. “It is because they are busy so they can't go. They know what they are going to do when it's the wedding day, so no worries.” Eldrith said with a smile that made Atasha nodded and they started.

“You won’t get your inheritance unless you’re married. Everything will go to your cousin instead! You’ll lose everything!” Before I could respond, Asher stepped forward. He took my hand, and the entire room seemed to freeze. “What if I say she’s already married to me?” he said calmly. “Did she really lose anything?” Gasps filled the air. He reached for the necklace I was wearing and revealed the ring hanging from it. Then he slid it onto my finger. Shock was written all over their faces. “W what?” I smiled slowly. Asher removed his mask. And his face was finally revealed to everyone.

Katherine couldn't believe her ears or her eyes. Taryn was engaged. Her best friend, who didn't believe in love, let alone marriage, was about to tie the knot. She pulled Taryn upstairs to her and Dustin's room so that they could talk in private. "What the actual hell," Kat basically yelled as she stepped in after Taryn and closed the door behind her. "What?" Tar questioned as she held up the ring and admire it. "Are you serious?"

I can't say the same about myself; happy tears fell like waterfalls. Then it was his turn; the elder reread the vows, “I do.” Tyler says midway before our elder finishes, making everyone chuckle. We exchanged rings in simple bands. His ring was a mixture of black gold and tanzanite. It had Viking runes engraved through the band in gold and finished with small amethyst stones through the band (Asher’s idea). My ring was a Blue Nile Asscher cut diamond band with amethyst stones in between each diamond. He slowly places the ring on me with trembling hands, and I do the same.

“Honey, listen to me. This is their tradition. You can’t change it since you accepted his proposal—” “Then why I am not wearing any ring?” I raised my hand to show them my ringless finger just to prove to them that they could return whatever Thayer’s father gave them. “But you just said that you’re getting married.” “It’s complicated.” My heart sunk. “You’re not pregnant, are you?” “No.” But we did sleep together unprotected. “Well. He gave us a house.”

“You’re a magnificent couple,” Asher raised his glass for a toast, his eyes locked on me. “I’ll cover all the expenses for this wedding. Tell me, Amy, is there something special you want for your big day?” He seemed so kind that I finally understood why I had trusted them for so long without ever suspecting their actual intentions. But I couldn’t forget that after we got married, the pressure for me to get pregnant became unbearable. Warren’s family even forced me to take medication.

“But his love for Miss Evans is so outstanding, and his desire to make her his wife is so deep, that he cannot tolerate the idea of postponing this wedding.” Eleonor, although she had tears streaming down her face, did not maintain a desolate expression. On the contrary, she looked extremely numb. Asher turns to the bride, “He asked me to give it to you as a token of his sorrow.” He opens the velvet box and reveals a gold white ring with a huge drop-shaped diamond and several other smaller diamonds around the thin hoop. The guests sigh before the jewel. Erica nearly chokes. Emily's eyes glitter at the piece that is more beautiful and expensive than the price of all her jewelry put together.
