Chapter 0214
(Lily POV)
James and I were standing next to each other in this foreign-to-us hall, feeling confused, when we heard
a female voice behind us.
“It took you long enough. Come, we do not have much time.”
We turned around and saw a beautiful woman -no, Goddess- standing before us. She was wearing a Grecian-style white dress, and her hair was long and silver. It was immediately obvious who she was.
“Moon Goddess?” I said.
“Yes, my children. Now, come closer so that we can talk. We really must hurry.”
James continued to hold my hand as we followed the Moon Goddess to an area of the hall that had a ceiling made of glass and a large water fountain in the middle. She gave us each a huge hug and
directed us to sit down on chairs in front of the fountain.
The Moon Goddess sat down in a chair in front of us, and then she grabbed one of each of our hands.
“So you chose James after all,” she commented happily.
“Yes,” I smiled.
“I was worried there for a long while, but I am glad that it all worked out. I just knew the two of you had

“Thank you for gifting Lily to me,” James said politely. “I know I do not deserve her, but-”
“Oh, enough with the self-defeated talk already. You would not be here if you did not deserve her. Each
time you question your worth, you are questioning Lily’s judgment. And I, for one, have no questions
about Lily’s judgment. She has proven herself to me.”
James nodded, not sure what else to say.
The Moon Goddess turned back to me.
“Now Lily, I am sure that you are eager to find out what all the secrecy has been all about.”
“More than ready,” I confirmed.
