Elijah’s world is falling apart. And no matter how tightly I hold on, I can feel him slipping through my fingers.

His family is breaking. His past is catching up.
And with every day that passes, the boy who once saved me is now the one I’m terrified of losing.

I’ve stood by him through it all. Through the silence. Through the secrets. Through the storms.
But love doesn’t erase pain. And patience doesn’t make it easier to watch someone you love disappear behind walls you can’t break through.

Part of me wants to keep fighting. To believe we’ll come out of this stronger.
But the other part?
The part that’s been bruised and broken before… It wonders if walking away might be the only way to protect what’s left of me.

This is our final test.
And I don’t know if we’ll survive it.

Holding Onto Forever is the breathtaking conclusion to Annabella and Elijah’s story. A deeply emotional journey of love, heartbreak, and the strength it takes to choose forever, even when it feels like all hope is gone.
