Thunder rumbled. Wind and rain howled. No matter how fast she ran, her mother only seemed farther and
farther away
She thought it would be like all the other dreams-no matter how hard she tried, she'd never catch her mother.
But just as she was about to give up, the dark clouds suddenly parted. Rain faded into sunshine. Spring bloomed
Bathed in golden light, she actually caught her mother in her arms.
Her mother was so warm.
That warmth, like sunlight, chased the cold out of her chest and filled her heart with brightness. Holding her
mother close, she beca little sun herself.
After finally finding the mother she’d missed so dearly, how could she ever let go?
Like a small animal afraid of abandonment, Lily tightened her grip on James and nuzzled her face into his chest
like she was being sweet and clingy.
“Mom. | missed you so much...”
He's not anyone’s mount
Not in a million years could he be a mom!
James wanted to shove her away on the spot.
But her arms and legs were clinging to him like an octopus, impossibly stubborn. He couldn't shake her off right
away.
Scowling darkly, he growled again. “Lily. I'm James. You've got the wrong person!”
“Mom”
Lily was lost deep in her dream. She couldn't hear him at all.
Her small hands, cold as ice, kept blindly groping-like she was searching for warmth.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJames didn’t want any woman touching him like that-Leila was the only exception.
His eyes darkened with irritation and danger as he coldly flung her wandering hand away
But a second later, she clung to him again.
Pitifully, she mumbled, “Mom, I'm so cold... Please hold me. I really... | missed you so much.”
Lily truly missed her mom.
Before age six. she was just a clueless, carefree little girl.

Luna had told her that from now on, she would be her mom.

Lily knew her real parents were Bryson and Jennie. But because their final words had told her to live on and be
well, she gave everything to the Ginger family.
She thought that if she was good to them, they'd never abandon her.
But after living in the Ginger household for over a decade, she finally realized-that place was never truly her
home.
Luna, the woman she'd called “Mom” for years, had never really seen her as a daughter.
Maybe it was because she hadn't felt that kind of warmth and happiness in a long time... but lately, she missed
her mother more and more. Even though she kept encouraging herself-telling herself she would becbetter,
that her parents could rest easy in the afterlife-every tshe dreamed, she still longed for her mother’s arms.
Now that she could finally snuggle up in her mother’s embrace and act spoiled, her heart was full of joy.
But strangely... she also really wanted to cry.
“Mom. hold me...
James had just been about to tell her there was no way in hell he was going to hold her when he looked down-
and saw her long lashes, dark as a raven’s wing, wet with tears.
Her lashes trembled slightly, and tiny beads of clear tears slipped down, pearl-like, one after another.
The corners of her eyes were red. Even the tip of her nose was flushed. She looked heartbreakingly aggrieved
James was absolutely certain that he only cared about Leila.
He didn’t love Lily. In fact, he outright rejected her. But for sreason, seeing her cry like that- completely
silent, those tears sliding down-his chest suddenly clenched with pain.
So tight it was hard to breathe.
That strange, suffocating ache was something he had never felt before. Caught in confusion and disbelief, James
forgot-just for a moment-to push her away.
In that brief lapse, her delicate, boneless hand found its way back to his chest.
She mumbled something unclear, then, as if testing his patience, scratched lightly at his chest a few times. Then
her head nestled even tighter against his heart.
As if he were the most precious thing in her life. The only person she relied on. The only one she trusted.
“Mom..”
Lily felt herself growing warmer.
Her mother was like a furnace-radiating heat. That warmth spread to her, chasing away every trace of
