When Forever Changes Novels & Stories

“And what I want, is all of you.” Mia watched as Carter looked around at each face. Mia, Lily, Alexander, Grayson, and even at Mia's stomach for the future face to come. They were a family. This is what love looked like. This is what a forever kind of love looked like.

I was never going to handle that. “I told you I don’t do temporary love, but…” That was what she said when we were in Peru. Did she change her mind? Was she here for a little while before returning to Peru? “I have been thinking that… that I want a forever love.” My heartbeats quickened. “You know, somebody I could be with and love with all my heart until my very last breath, so Xander, will you be… will you be my forever?” My mate was giving me another chance. She came all the way from Peru to offer me one more chance.

As unprecedented existence. Forever. Or until forever breaks us. Whichever comes first. The story continues! END OF CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOUR TO BE CONTINUED...

She lowered our joined hands by her side. "I'll give you a thousand kisses, My Sophie. All of them. No one will kiss you ever, but me." My eyes widened but my heart didn't slow down. "That would be forever, Chelsea. To never be kissed by anyone else means we have to be together forever, and ever and ever!" Chelsea nodded her head, then she smiled, Chelsea didn't smile a lot. But she normally half smiled or smirked. She was real beautiful when she did. "I know because we are forever always, remember?"

And that's exactly what our children will grow up knowing—that real love fights, endures, and emerges stronger than ever. Forever. The end.

Forever would never end. We were family. We were love. We were everything. And that was enough. More than enough. Perfect. THE END

Our eternal promise. And nothing would ever change it. Nothing. Ever. For all time. That was certain. That was real. That was home. And I embraced it completely. Now and always. Forever and ever. With my whole heart. My whole being. My whole soul. This was life. This was love. This was purpose. This was everything. Perfect and beautiful and absolutely, wonderfully, miraculously right. Exactly as it should be. Exactly as it would always be. Forever.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

“Always.” He kissed me then, slow and deep, as if the word had become a vow between us, and in the warmth of his arms I understood that forever did not need to sound grand to be real. Sometimes forever was simply this: his hand holding mine, my name trembling on his breath, and the quiet certainty that no matter how many seasons passed, my heart would still know where it belonged.

“Bu⁠t‍ I ca‌n promise I won’t be t‍he re‍ason it breaks.” ‌ ‍That was diffe‌rent. N‌ot control. Not guarantee. Choice. Ava slowly leaned closer. ‍Their shoulders touched. ‌ For a mom⁠ent‍, neither of them spoke. Just breathing. Existing. Together. Then Ava s⁠aid so‌ft‍ly, almost like she was testing the wo⁠rds herself: “Forever is a big word.” Liam nod‌ded slightly. “I know.” A⁠ paus⁠e‍.

Forever. Yes. For Ariana, the word 'forever' was not something she could trust. She had been deceived by that one sweet word. Indeed, up to this point, that word had never truly existed in her life. Everything in her life only contained the word 'temporary.' In her life, she didn't have a forever happy family. She didn't have forever loyal friends. She didn't have unconditional love forever. Remember, Ariana was abandoned. And even when she got a new family, she felt neglected. And now, even though she saw Gerald looking at her with adoration, she knew that adoration would only last temporarily.
