True Beauty End Novels & Stories

Always us. THE END

While I was not thrilled that she had to ever face a rejection, I was thankful that she found a mate that did deserve her. Life with Beauty had been filled with so many amazing moments and memories – ones that truly made life worth living. The best thing that ever came from our mateship was the incredible family that we were blessed with. I had vowed from the beginning that I would break free of the toxicity that was Calvin’s bullshit and the trauma that was inflicted by him.

You wanted kids, remember? I'll make it happen. We can have as many as you want," she said, bargaining desperately. I stood there, watching the sad spectacle, and replied with a calm finality, "There's no need. We're done for good. It's over between us."

"I want to spend it with just the two of us, of course!" Maya looked at me with such an expectant look that I wondered if something had gone wrong with the truth serum. After all, in the three years we had been married, I had never doubted her love. I studied her eyes, then tested her by resting my hand on her in a way she could not mistake for anything else.
