That blazing red tangled with a shocking white–it was like crimson plum blossoms bursting into bloom in the dead of winter, suddenly buried beneath a heavy fall of snow.

The snow pressed down the branches, bending them with its weight.

Fragrance wafted through the air. Seduction flooded every inch of the car.

“Lily, get away from me!”

James didn’t want this. Didn’t want to kiss her. Forcing himself to turn his face away, he used every ounce of willpower he had to shove her off, trembling as he did.

“Someone’s bringing the antidote. You won’t feel like this for long. Stay away from me!”

When she tried to cling to him again, he shoved her aside with a cold face and wasted no time slipping into the driver’s seat.

“Mm…”

Lily had been quite content hugging that cool, icy jade—comfortably nestled against him.

Kissing it was even better.

She was happily wrapped around her human–shaped ice stone… until the stone suddenly came alive, refused to let her hold it, and even tossed her to the ground.

And then it yelled at her?

How could she not be mad?

Unable to hug her cold jade anymore, she tried to find some other way to cool off. If not, she’d really burn alive.

Hearing her little whimpering sobs of frustration, James glanced up at the rearview mirror without thinking.

He hadn’t wanted to marry her. That was the truth.

But after spending time with her, he’d come to realize she wasn’t the shameless, irrational kind of woman he’d assumed she was.

He thought once he pushed her off, even if she was uncomfortable, she’d sit still in the back seat like a decent person.
