Their Mistake Her Rise Novels & Stories

Dear Readers, And finally… we have reached the end of Maeve and Keiv’s story. ❤️ If you’ve made it all the way here, thank you so, so much. Honestly, their journey was never simple. It all started with a wrong unit, a wrong bed, and a mistake they never imagined would become the beginning of such a huge part of their lives. But perhaps, that is one of the most beautiful messages of their story: Not every mistake is something we need to regret. Some mistakes become the path that leads us to something we never knew we were looking for.

"—As time went on, I began to see you more and more as unworthy. I thought you stayed for his money, for his status. I believed lies because they were easier to swallow up than the truth. I never wanted to imagine that my son was the one unworthy of you." I kept silent, my fingers curling into my palms. I just stared at her. Dead silent. "I was wrong." She said softly. "So incredibly wrong." This was odd. I had imagined many things when it came to Margaret. More scorn than I already experienced. Another insult, maybe even a serious threat. But never this. Just never this. Not humility. Not remorse.

Jacintha finally said after weighing the implications of not apologizing for the mistakes she made. “What the young miss of such a reputed family be so vicious? I was almost convinced she was a dignified lady”. “She has such an evil mind for evil plots, I wonder what else she is capable of doing”. The people castigated her as they found their way out of the dramatic scene. “It looks like someone finally admits their wrongs. It's fine, I will forgive you this time but don't you dare do this again” “We won't do such a thing again!” Both Julia and Rise said in unison.

“It’s grown-up stuff. Complicated grown-up stuff.” “But why was everyone angry at you?” She looked up at me and her bottom lip jutted out, trembling, and I bit the inside of my cheek so hard I tasted blood. “Sometimes people make mistakes,” I said gently, peeling her shoes off one at a time. “And other people get upset about those mistakes.” “Was it a really bad mistake?” I pulled her pyjama top over her head and buttoned the front carefully, focusing on the small motion of my fingers because it kept me from falling apart. “Yes,” I admitted quietly. “It was.”

"I want to tell her that everything that happened was my fault" ****** "Stop this Tiana, you know i wont let you leave" Marcus stood up immediately "I don't think I would need your permission to do that, incase you forgot, I'm an adult." "Tiana please calm down, we certainly can talk about this" Jess tried taking the bag away from Tiana " There's nothing to talk about Jess" the certainty in her voice was a pain in Marcus heart. "I am really sorry Tiana, I'm ready to make this right" sincerity really evident in his voice

I couldn’t breathe for a second. Two slow, heavy heartbeats passed. Two seconds where every rule I ever made tried to fight gravity. And lost. Two seconds too long. I pulled back like the mat was on fire. She sat up slowly, face hot, eyes down. I stepped away like I needed fresh air and a new brain. “This—” I started. “What happened?” she asked quietly. “A mistake.” Her jaw clenched. Her eyes lifted. She looked fine— but her hands shook. “It’s okay,” she said. “Not a big deal.”

It was powerful and profound—it didn’t stop her from trying to be the best mate she could be to him. She hated every mistake, every bad judgement, and as she approached the gates of light above, just toward the moon glinting in the sky, she vowed to try to make things right. She had given everything she had the moment she saw that Alpha. But she was wrong in doing so. Her body floated below, abandoned, and her spirit was furious for her mistakes. If she ever had the chance to do it over again, she would. And the first thing she would do? Find Herold Hughes and make him suffer.

I don't know if I should be amused at her confidence, or be annoyed at the fact that she thinks she knows me that well. "I do not love you. That's where you're wrong. " I correct her, but she shakes her head stubbornly. She parts her lips to protest, but I stop her before she can speak. "That kiss was a mistake. It should have never happened. " "That's the best part about the things we call mistakes. " She laughs. "We do want them to happen because we crave them, but we are cautious of the consequences. It was a sweet mistake, Vincent. One you wanted so fucking bad. "

A mistake in the underlying code had triggered a crash in the chain system. The engineers were already overwhelmed. When they saw me walk in, their eyes held a mix of expectation and embarrassment. I didn’t respond to any of it. I sat down and connected to the system. Memories of every system upgrade and custom request Apex had gone through, buried deep in my mind, surged forward instantly. An hour later, the alarms stopped, and the data was restored. Mr. Johnson’s call came directly to my phone. “Lily, thank you! I knew you’d handle it!”

She asked, surprised that I could have a mind of my own. "Is that so?" I asked sarcastically. "Yes, that is so. So she cheated, so what? It was a mistake and you cant sit there and tell me that you are above mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes here and its a normal thing. The good thing is that she has owned up to the mistake, apologized and is trying to make it better, so why are you so focused on ruining every single thing that this woman has worked so hard for?"
