Unspoken Truth About Marriage Novels & Stories

He’s so handsome, it physically hurts to look at him. “Stop it,” I whispered. “He’s Sophia’s fiancé. He probably despises you.” Still, confusion twisted in my chest. If they truly loved each other and wanted to get married, why would something like a hymen matter? I hope their love is strong enough to survive this, and that Sophia would stop cheating on him. That they find their way back to each other. They were planning a wedding. Surely, they could figure this out.

It wasn't enough. The betrayal was too deep. The lies too extensive. The trust too broken. How could I marry him when I didn't know what else he was hiding? I couldn't. So I wouldn't. The wedding was off.

“What do you want me to say?” “I want you to care!” Her voice broke loudly across the phone. For a moment, neither of them spoke. Then Valentina whispered something so quietly Lucas almost missed it. “I gave up my whole life for this marriage.” Lucas leaned back slowly. “And I gave up mine.” The words shocked both of them. The truth finally stood naked between them. Their marriage was not built on love anymore. Maybe it never truly was. Only pressure. Control. Family expectations. Business. Fear. Valentina wiped her tears angrily.

Kathleen didn't want to keep any crucial information to herself. Alec had been left amazed by her revelation, he had gone completely silent, and why not, Kathleen knew that he wouldn't ever want to talk to a girl who is married with a child. He was young and successful, a billionaire, he could get any girl without any responsibilities being stuck with her back. "We are separated but we live under the same roof. It was nice meeting you, hope you'll find a desirable friend one day." Kathleen felt weirdly guilty for not telling him at the beginning of the night.

Rebecca was reacting to Andrew's apparent discomfort by trying to wiggle them both out of the situation. "Think of this like a vaccination against future problems, my dear. You don't wait until you have polio for treatment anymore, not when the vaccination can prevent so much pain. This is the same. We come into a marriage mostly unaware of our own sexual natures, and completely unaware of our partner's needs and desires. As we progress, we hide the things that we think might be objectionable to our partners, and the repressed desires become unexpressed resentments, and before you know it you're getting a divorce that neither of you wants, for reasons that you won't even speak about."

The wind this night was especially strong. "I know everything already, nothing is news to me." "What do you mean?" I was greatly confused. Unless he has been following me, there was no way he'd know everything. And him following me, is definitely creepy. "You got married to Jake almost immediately after we met, went to your honey moon in Maldives, know the prophecy, and now you're out here because your mate is sleeping with another woman and you're greatly hurt." I moved back a little in shock when I heard what he said. A smile curved his lips when he saw my action.

"That's not a problem, you can leave your husband and get a divorce from him. I don't care if you are married; you belong to me and me alone." "Are you crazy?!" Charlotte busted out in anger. She used all of her energy to push Christian's hands off her. "You really expect me to leave my husband for you?" "Listen Charlotte, I know five years have passed but I still feel the same way about you. Plus, I know that the marriage between Sebastian and you is just a contract marriage. You guys never even met prior to a month before your marriage." Charlotte's heart stopped beating for a moment when she heard Christian say that her marriage was based on a contract.

“What will you tell them?” “The truth. The one really good thing about the truth is it doesn’t come back and bite you. Keeping secrets is what messes everything up.” He paused to let this all too relevant truth sink home. Then totally careless of the fact that other people were listening, he bored in with,” Do I have your consent to announcing that we’re getting married in the near future?” Inescapable… She was trapped. Her mind whirled, trying to grasp some other workable way to handle the future.

I grappled with the weight of his unspoken words, a complex dance of emotions unfolding in the silent spaces between us. Doubt crept into my thoughts, and I couldn't shake the feeling that Hudson's revelation was a sign of obligation rather than choice. Was he forced into this marriage, tethered by duty rather than desire? A pang of insecurity gripped me as I considered the possibility that Hudson refrained from seeking the woman from his past because he was already bound to me. The unspoken fear that he settled for our union out of obligation instead of a genuine connection cast a shadow over the fragile foundation of our relationship.

"Let them talk. There will be leaks about the diary anyway, because the police station leaks as badly as any government department. What matters is that we know the truth.” "And what is the truth, Hunter?" I asked, unable to stop myself. "About us? About this marriage?" I wasn’t pushing, I knew, but I needed more. His eyes met mine, steady and unflinching. "The truth is that I married you because I couldn't imagine my life without you in it. Because the thought of raising our child with anyone else was impossible." My heart stuttered. "Is that all?" He hesitated, something shifting in his expression. "No," he admitted finally. "That's not all."
