The Ending Of The Vow の小説・ストーリー

To covenant. From hate. To love. From nothing. To everything. They'd won. **THE END**

Outside, the storm finally broke, rain cascading against the windows like a symphony of fate. Elara closed her eyes, feeling the weight of the moment settle over her. “Whatever comes next… we face it side by side. Until the very last breath.” Kael pressed his forehead to hers, the warmth of his touch a shield against the darkness. “Until the last breath.” In that quiet chamber, amid the echoes of ancient power and whispered hopes, the last vow was sealed—a promise that would shape the destiny of their kingdom and the fragile heart beating between them.

“My mother entrusted me to you on her deathbed. And what did you do to me? “If you had a daughter, would you want her to forgive a man who treated her the way you treated me?” “So, no! I won’t forgive you. I don’t want to ever see you again.” He looked at me deeply, as if recalling that day when my mother placed my hand into his, when he had vowed he would take care of me. He lowered his head and fell silent for a long time. As I passed by him, his trembling voice drifted to my ears.

There was only the two of them. A mother and her daughter. Was this their final farewell? Livia did not know. But in silence, she made a promise— She would return. And when that time came, they would finally experience the freedom they had only ever dreamed of. “Let’s go.” Adrian’s voice was heard again. Firm. Leaving no room for refusal. “Wait a moment.” Rossa stepped forward, holding a small bag in her hand. “Won’t you go home first?” she asked softly.

My mind was too far away. Then his voice became clearer. “We now commit this body to the ground; earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.” Those were the final words. The coffin began to lower. The sound of it descending into the ground echoed louder than it should have. My chest tightened painfully as reality pressed harder against me. This was it. This was the end. After today, I would have nothing but memories to hold on to.

“You're mine. I'm never going to leave your side again.” I smiled, my eyes still closed. “Is that a promise.” “It's a goddamn vow.” ~THE END

I acted as if I hadn't seen her at all and continued exchanging heartfelt vows with Delilah. Delilah was so moved that tears filled her eyes. "Ry, don't worry. I'll be devoted to you for the rest of my life. I love you." I had heard those same words from Amara before, but for some unexplainable reason, I truly believed Delilah. I believed that she would truly spend the rest of her days with me. "I love you, too." Wrapping our arms around each other, we kissed. I'd never imagined that I could meet such an incredible woman in this lifetime.

Rain soaked his black clothes while thunder cracked across the sky. Vanessa placed a hand on his shoulder. “End it, Kael.” Kael looked at me one last time, then he nodded at the warriors. They understood the message and shoved me backward. I fell drastically, the wind screaming around me as darkness swallowed my body whole. Tears slipped out of my eyes, not because I was dying, but because the man I loved watched me fall. I closed my eyes as death rushed toward me. And with my final breath, I made a hopeless vow.

The sound around me started to fade, my eyes drooping shut, but I said to myself that this was it. This was the end. I made a vow… That I'd become someone they regret not wanting. A few more breaths, and darkness followed.
