When a quiet storm rolls through the night, Luke doesn't expect anything more than a restless sleep. But when a newborn calf wanders from the barn and curls up beside his chest in the dark-terrified, trembling, and alone-everything changes. She doesn't just want warmth. She wants him. Now, with her tiny spotted body snuggled into his bed, and her heart wrapped tightly around his own, Luke discovers something he never saw coming: Healing, comfort, and a kind of love he didn't know he needed. Through sleepless nights, thunder-filled mornings, and days that feel just too heavy to carry alone, Luna is always there-nuzzling into his arms, whispering through soft moos and silent company: Forever and always.
