Chapter 119

• Deep down, Cullen was seething with rage. Words wouldn’t be able to exactly explain how he was feeling at that moment. He almost couldn’t believe that his own mother had come to try to defend his step-father who he absolutely hated from the pit of his heart. And the mom his mother acted to, Cullen felt like he couldn’t barely recognize her anymore.
• The woman who held her and taught him how to walk, who taught him to bake cookies, who taught him his homework and built castles with him in the sand, the one who gave him a kiss on a forehead for nine years straight even when he didn’t want it anymore and tried to complain but secretly loved it.
• That was his mother.
