- The King's Broken Promises -

In a faraway kingdom, a valiant Prince named Nathaniel, who dared to defy convention and fought for the liberty to love freely, found himself in a predicament. Despite his father's insistence upon an arranged marriage, Nathaniel's heart was irrevocably bound to Velliena Ivory, a woman of unwavering faith and indomitable spirit. However, their love was fraught with peril, as Nathaniel was betrothed to another and Velliena faced insurmountable obstacles of her own.

Velliena endured heartache and loss, yet never relinquished her faith in God. In her darkest moments, she sought solace and guidance from God, her Best Friend. But when a quarrel with Nathaniel threatened to rend them asunder, Velliena made the agonizing decision to depart.

Years elapsed and Nathaniel ascended to the throne. He had not forgotten Velliena and often pondered her whereabouts and well-being. Meanwhile, Velliena had returned to the town after years of absence. She heard murmurs of a King who had fallen in combat and wondered if it could be Nathaniel.

At noon, after her return, she visited the place where they had first met. There, she wept for the loss of the King she thought was Nathaniel. But it was not meant to be. King Nathaniel often visited the place where he had first encountered Velle as well, yearning for her presence every day. And there, amidst the flowers and fireflies, he beheld her once more.

Their eyes met as tears welled in Velliena's. The King hastened to her side and enfolded her in a tender embrace. They clung to one another, lost in the moment, as if no time had passed at all.

However, this is not how the story ends: "Your Highness, you have received a letter from your Mother. She is on her way to see you very soon."

Their love is collided by Nathaniel's mother, Ruth, and Velle's secret admirer.

This is a tale of love and faith, of duty and sacrifice.

I don't know what possessed me to do my next action, as I closed the inch of distance between our lips. Perhaps it was floating in the air or rushing through my blood, but just this once before the madness ensued I wanted to kiss him. Maybe I shouldn't have let myself give in for a single moment, but I was only human and he was unlike any man I had met in a long time. Our lips pressed together, eyes closed, arms pressed against his chest as he brought me closer. We moved in sync and this feeling made everything melt away. ________________________________________________ In the middle of editing so two of this symbol ~ . means that a chapter is fully edited minus the few grammar mistakes I'm bound to make, if there's only one ~ then it means that chapter is currently being edited so please don't kill me.

"How can your God love me?" I asked in pure distress. "How can He love me after everything I've done? Doesn't He know where I come from or who I am? What I am?" "He does but that doesn't stop Him from loving you all the same." "How is that possible?" I wiped my eyes. "God is love; He loves you because it's in His nature to do so." He said and I could barely comprehend what he meant. "Give Him a chance to show His love to you." "I don't understand and I don't think I want to." I shook my head in denial. "I will see you later." I took the easy road and chose to run away, living in a world where I could be free and live happily was a dream I had given up on long ago. Especially now. "God loves you and believe it or not I do too. I love you Zaya, so much that I want you to be my wife." He said and I stopped on my tracks, then I turned to look at him intently. Marriage? Could I ever have that? "What?" I asked him. "Marry me," he looked into my eyes and I panicked. He meant it for some reason and that alone was enough to make me run away like the coward I was. * * * * * * * * Life was easy and perfect for Zaidan Nawan, she had everything. From the looks to the riches, she was the envy of so many people in the clan. But everything came crashing down when her father lost the battle to a wild lion and her twin brother died mysteriously. Being exposed to a series of misfortunes was enough for her family to be looked upon as cursed. Out of fear and wickedness, they were labelled black legs by the people and excluded from the community. After receiving a message, she sought to restore her family's fallen glory. After a search, she found her breakthrough, her solution in the person of Isaac Delaney, the careless white man who settled down with his people in a camping site deep into the forest. But things didn't work out as planned and when she thought everything was over for her, God found her. And just like that, her life began.

That night had been the first time Tristan told her he loved her. Their courtship had started fast. It took four hours for him to get her into bed and take her virginity and one night for her to fall head over heels in love with him.
