What? My Love-stricken Mom Is Back Novels & Stories

“Don’t pull away from me, Bev. We’re meant to be. I know it. You know it too.” Tears sprang to my eyes instantly. I tried to push him away again, but my arms felt weak, traitorous. “This is wrong,” I choked out, my voice breaking. “I can’t keep doing this to Mom. She talked to me the other night… she loves you. She thinks you’re her second chance. I can’t keep betraying her like this. It’s killing me.”

He stood his ground. "Fine! But tell me.". Mom said she was suspicious. "Tell you what...?". Christopher responded to it. "Are you perhaps in love with someone, or haven't you healed from the pains of the past?". Asked mom, Christopher giggled once more. "Nah! It's over, and when I fall in love, you'll be the first to know.". He promised Mom. I took heed of someone coming in my direction and went away from the door. Why's mom hell bent on bringing Lisa back into her son's life? Has she forgotten the scars she inflicted on him when they broke up? ...

It felt like the ground beneath me had disappeared, leaving me unbalanced and vulnerable. Turning to the mirror, my reflection betrayed the remnants of last night—Ezekiel’s love bites were faint but undeniable, scattered across my collarbone and body. I sighed, pressing my lips tightly together, frustration bubbling inside me. Why, Mom? Why now? I didn’t understand why she had come back so soon. She had ruined everything—my perfect moment with Ezekiel, the peace we had built in our shared intimacy. Moving quickly, I cleaned the room, wiping away any traces that might hint at the night’s passion. Throwing on something modest, I made sure to cover every mark, even as they seemed to burn agains

I bobbed an absurd curtsy, completely oblivious to the handsome stranger behind me. “Hello, Mrs. Thatcher.” My Mom looked over my shoulder and her smile dropped. “Sir...” She gasped, staring popeyed at him. “I’ve come back for my property,” His sharp blue eyes shone as he muttered. “Mom, what’s going on?” I wonder what property my parents owed him. “Give me some minutes to talk to her,” Mom replied. Me? My brows arched in confusion as I glanced from the handsome devil before me to my terrified Mom.

So, she had been giving us the silent treatment saying we were her kids and she shouldn't have to listen to us. "I am still upset that you guys won't let me move back into my home, but I understand you are looking out for me. You are my daughter; of course, I want to ensure you are okay. I love you. I love the both of you," My mom said, looking at me and then at Justin, and I couldn't help but smile at her. "I love you too, Mom," I replied "So, what happened?" My mom asked

"No, Mom. You're wrong. Your heart would still beat without Dad, and Dad can live just fine without you." Mom shook her head hard. "Alicia, you're too young to understand what your dad and I had." I let out a quiet sigh. Silly Mom. I understood better than anyone. My mom was already gone. She disappeared a little more every time she chose someone else over Dad. So who was this woman standing in front of me? She reminded me of the ghosts from the bedtime stories my teacher used to read to us. She hadn't come back because she finally understood what she had done. She came back because she couldn't bear what she lost.

I had been reborn. I quickly checked the table calendar on the bedside stand. Today was the sixteenth of June, 2024. Yes… today was the day it all started. The day Luca told me to seduce his father. The Goddess had sent me back so I wouldn’t make the same foolish mistake. My heart swelled with gratitude toward the Moon Goddess. This time… I wouldn’t be a fool who trusted easily and loved blindly. Yes… like the promise I made before the fire consumed me completely, I would burn them down first. I swore it!

I really needed the distraction’ I gasped from within, surprised at how far I already went with my imagination and his face as the major theme and spur of it. The door pushed wide open with a bit of force and the person that showed up behind it shocked me to the core as I originally imagined it was going to be Kade. “Mama?! What are you doing here?” He uttered, staring at his mom like she just cut him off from doing something. “I just haven’t seen Lily anywhere today after checking almost everywhere. This was the last place to check and so I did and thank the goddess I found her.” She muttered, completely acting it out.

After all, the last time he saw me, I was still that pitiful mother desperately trying to win his affection, begging for scraps of love from my own child. But I was done indulging him: "Didn't you want Scarlett to be your mother and Emma to be your sister? You should be happy about me breaking the mate bond with Derek. This way, you can live happily ever after with them." As I spoke, I watched Tyler's face growing increasingly pale, the blood draining from his cheeks. I added with a smile that didn't reach my eyes: "No need to thank me." Panic flashed across Tyler's face as he nervously grabbed my arm, his fingers digging into my skin: "Mom, what are you talking about? You're my mother! "

Those words hung in the air long after he was gone even now but that is the person I am supposed to make fall in love with me. From the distance, we heard the gate glided open. “He’s back!” Mother exclaimed, “Game on...”
