Lucas and the others were enjoying their dinner event on the sailboat arranged by Arka. Everyone seemed to be enjoying their dinner while engaging in some light conversations."Where does Grandma Maruna live, Arka?" Luna asked, immediately stopping the movements of Arka, as well as Lucas and even Leon."Honey, why are you asking about Grandma again?" Lucas questioned."I'm just curious about what happened earlier," Luna replied, causing Lucas to put down his utensils and look at Luna with a serious gaze."Honey, forget about that incident. I'm sure Grandma just wanted to greet us as foreign tourists," Lucas reasoned, trying to dissuade Luna from asking Arka any further.However, it seemed that the reason Lucas provided wasn't convincing Luna, given her expression that still indicated her desire for more information about Grandma Maruna. "I'm sure Grandma said something about me, and I need to know the meaning behind her words," Luna answered, leaving Lucas unsure of what kind of reaso
Lucas extended his hand to gently caress Luna's face, wiping away the tears that flowed and dampened her cheeks. At this moment, Lucas had no idea how to breathe properly; his chest felt tight and painful as he looked at the sorrow on his wife's face."Tell me, Lucas, is it true that I can't have a child?" Luna's words struck Lucas once again, and he immediately shook his head, denying every word Luna had just spoken."That's not true. One day, we'll have a happy family – you, me, and our children. Children who will look just like you, and some who will look just like me. They'll fill our days with color, wipe away sorrows and tears. We'll get everything, someday," Lucas reassured Luna, as if he was giving her strength. However, deep down, he felt like his heart was being stabbed with a blunt knife over and over again.Beyond the lies he was hiding, which would undoubtedly hurt him, and the fact that Luna would genuinely struggle to conceive, there was another fact – how Lucas would c
Lucas helped Leon and Arka unload their bags and ushered them into the car, while Luna accompanied Selena in the car, who appeared pale and weak."Are you okay?" Luna asked, looking at Selena's face with concern."Hmm, I'm fine," Selena replied weakly, causing Luna to divert her gaze to the three men who were still busy with their belongings.Suddenly, Leon interrupted the moment between Lucas and Luna on the boat. He informed them that they needed to return to the island immediately because Selena seemed unable to tolerate the sea's surroundings, whether it was due to her past experiences or because of the baby she was carrying, and this had caused Leon to panic upon seeing his wife dizzy and nauseated.That's why they decided to cut their vacation short and return. Initially, Leon was going to let Luna and Lucas enjoy their honeymoon, but Luna refused because she thought it wouldn't be enjoyable if one of them had to leave, especially since they were going together. Moreover, Luna p
Luna slowly tried to open her eyes, feeling the gentle strokes on her cheeks. She heard Lucas's voice calling out to her, but for some reason, it was extremely difficult for her to open her eyes. Her body felt cold and weightless, as if she was floating, and Luna had a momentary desire not to open her eyes. However, Lucas's persistent calls compelled her to muster all her strength and try to open her heavy eyelids."Come on, find another way," Luna could clearly hear Lucas's voice, sounding panicked. Despite her closed eyes, Luna struggled to listen."We should call for help," another voice chimed in, recognizable as Leon's."What we really need right now is a doctor," Lucas's voice responded, sounding angry."I'm okay, guys," Luna thought to herself. Not only could she not open her eyes, but she also couldn't manage to produce sound from her mouth. Luna was unsure what was happening to her; it seemed to be the aftermath of whatever the grandmother had done. Everything felt light and
Luna didn't know what was happening to her. She could hear and perceive what was happening around her, but she couldn't move her body or even open her eyes. It was as if her soul was trapped and held captive by something. Luna listened to the debate between Lucas and Arka about the incident that had befallen her.Luna felt a strong urge to interject their conversation and confirm that she did indeed meet Grandma Maruna in the middle of the forest. However, just like her other body parts, her voice seemed to be beyond her control. Luna eventually resigned herself, remaining silent, waiting for everything to return to normal. After a while, Luna felt as though someone was pulling her through something she couldn't define.Previously, she had sensed someone pulling her back into her body and gaining control over whatever Luna wanted to do with her own body. When Luna felt something flowing in her throat and a cold sensation moistening her face, she managed to slowly open her eyes and bli
The conversation between Lucas, Leon, and Arka came to a halt as Luna approached them. She walked quickly towards them, carrying a book and writing tools, which she placed on the table. Luna gazed at the three of them with a slightly exasperated expression before writing something on the notebook she had brought."Stop arguing. The old woman didn't harm me; she's not dangerous," Luna wrote on the pages of the book, then showed it to the three men, who were now looking at her."I've told your beloved husband that repeatedly, but he's stubborn," Arka said, looking lazily at Lucas. Luna, too, gave her husband an annoyed look. Lucas, visibly frustrated, clenched his jaw.Luna then lowered her head and wrote again, "Lucas, I think the old woman wants to tell us something. It's like she wants to help us." She showed the book to Lucas, who responded with an irritated sigh.Lucas let out a harsh breath before replying to Luna's words, attempting to control his irritation. "Fine, let's assume
Luna and Arka halted their steps as they reached Arka's yard, coming face to face with Lucas, who had just arrived from the opposite direction. Luna quickly walked towards Lucas and assessed his appearance from head to toe. She then raised her hand as if to ask something, furrowing her brow."Honey, do you want to ask me something?" Lucas inquired, causing Luna to pout with frustration. This was the reason Luna was eager to meet Grandma Maruna – she couldn't keep communicating through writing or gestures that she struggled to make. Luna then turned and walked towards the car, retrieving the notebook she had carried earlier. She scribbled something and showed it to Lucas."Where have you been? And why do you look like that?" Luna's question made Lucas examine himself, realizing he was covered in mud."I was just walking around the area behind the forest, but it turns out there are a lot of wild animals there. I was almost chased by a wild boar and had to jump into the mud to escape," L
Everyone was sitting in the living room of Arka's residence, their minds in disarray due to the morning's events. After being startled by Luna's screams from her room the previous night, they received news that completely baffled them.Upon hearing the cries, Leon and Arka rushed towards Lucas and Luna's room, only to find out that Lucas explained Luna had a bad dream. However, what shocked them was Luna's dream of finding Grandma Maruna lying in a pool of blood in the middle of the forest, a dark figure blindly stabbing her.Lucas, Arka, and Leon were taken aback by Luna's words. They didn't even realize that Luna had regained her ability to speak until she continuously rambled about Grandma Maruna's murder. That night, they dismissed Luna's dream as just a nightmare, but the news Arka brought in the morning truly made them feel that something was amiss around them. Arka had received word from a local fisherman that Grandma Maruna's lifeless body was found in the middle of the forest
Slowly, Luna begins to open her eyes and surveys the room she's in. She feels something tightly holding onto her hand, and as she looks down, she sees Lucas, who's asleep while clutching her hand. Luna reaches her other hand to gently stroke Lucas's hair, rousing him from his sleep."Did I wake you up?" Luna asks, causing Lucas to blink his eyes a few times."Are you awake? How do you feel? Is anything hurting?" Lucas inquires, his worried expression reflecting in his eyes."Am I okay?" Luna replies with a faint smile on her lips. They fall into a brief silence, just gazing at each other, before Lucas finally finds his voice again. He extends his hand to tenderly caress Luna's cheek."I'm sorry I couldn't protect you and our baby," Lucas says, causing Luna to furrow her brows."What do you mean you couldn't protect our baby? Did something bad happen to our baby?" Luna questions, concern evident in her voice."I almost let us lose our baby," Lucas says, his head hanging in regret and a
Luna screams as Travis attempts to remove the knife lodged in her shoulder. He glares at Luna with a murderous intent, gripping the blood-smeared knife. Finally summoning her courage, Luna manages to stab Travis's shoulder using a knife she had hidden under the pillow. As Luna suspected, Travis hadn't realized she had hidden two knives earlier as a precaution. Taking advantage of Travis's momentary lapse due to exhaustion from their previous activities, Luna strikes back.Luna finally manages to wound Travis's body, even though her strike misses its intended mark on Travis's chest and ends up hitting his shoulder. Despite this, the wound is deep enough to make Travis grimace in pain, blood quickly staining his chest. What proves lucky for Luna is that Travis had forgotten to lock the door to the room Luna occupied.This oversight allows Luna to flee down a flight of stairs, leading her to realize that the room she was in was at the very top of the building. As she runs, Travis is hot
Lucas, Arka, and Leo are starting to look anxious after flying for hours, yet they haven't found the island where Luna is hidden."Have you checked the island properly?" Lucas asks, causing Leo, who has been focused on a flat object in front of him, to mutter."I don't want us to end up on the wrong island this time," Lucas says again, earning an annoyed look from Leo."Why, do you think finding that secluded island is easy? I might be able to track Luna's whereabouts through her phone network, but look, there are numerous islands scattered across the entire ocean. I don't know which one is where Luna is. Besides, I can't currently trace the phone's signal," Leo explains, making Lucas frustrated. Earlier, they had landed their helicopter on two islands, only to realize they were wrong. This time, Lucas hopes they're on the right one."Do you think that island looks suspicious?" Arka says, gazing at the island below. Lucas also looks down and sees a single building on the island, which
Travis started to bring his face closer, starting from behind Luna's ear where she was particularly sensitive. His tongue danced around her neck, gently grazing it, even as Luna continued to squirm and curse at him. Travis paid no attention to her protests, following his heart's desires even in the face of Luna's resistance.Travis was determined to have Luna, and he intended to do it with tenderness and affection. He believed that Luna would eventually give in to him, even though he was met with rejection at the moment. Luna clenched her fists tightly as Travis touched her so softly. It was far from what she had expected; she thought Travis would be rough and filled with anger, especially after she compared him to Lucas.However, now Travis was touching every inch of her body with a sense of emotion that made Luna have to bite her lip hard to suppress any moans."Even though you've rejected me, I will provide you with a beautiful first night experience that you will never forget," Tr
Luna slowly opened her eyes, sensing someone tightly embracing her, sound asleep. She felt the rhythmic breath on her neck, and as she turned her face slowly, she saw Travis's closed eyes. Luna began to move her palms cautiously in front of Travis's face. When she was sure that Travis was deeply asleep, she attempted to lift Travis's arm that was wrapped tightly around her waist.However, just as she managed to lift his arm a few inches, Travis's body tightened against hers again, causing Luna to hold her breath and close her eyes once more. She was afraid that Travis might wake up as she was about to put her plan into action. Luna waited for a few moments, ensuring Travis was sound asleep before attempting to pull his arm away from her waist once more. She succeeded this time. Travis seemed to be deeply lost in his dreams. Slowly, Luna began to lower her leg off the bed and made her way to a nearby cupboard, retrieving a hidden knife.Returning to the bed, Luna held the knife with tr
Luna takes a step back, her heart racing, as she faces Travis's intense gaze, holding a phone in his hand."Quickly tell me where you got this phone from," Travis asks in a cold voice, making Luna wary since he could potentially harm her and her unborn child, even though she manipulated the pregnancy test results she gave him earlier."I just found it in the wardrobe," Luna replies, her voice shaking, as Travis then hurls the phone against the wall behind her, shattering it into pieces. Luna's eyes widen in disbelief. Then, Travis walks briskly towards her, grabbing her shoulder with a tight grip."Tell me quickly, who gave you this phone?" Travis demands, his grip intense. Luna closes her eyes tightly, not expecting Travis to become this aggressive. She can't tell him that she stole the phone from Priscilla, as she doesn't want Travis to punish the servant who indirectly helped her. Priscilla had informed Luna that she was on a remote island in the middle of the sea.Luna is taken ab
Lucas and Arka forcefully enter a lavish house after Lucas's men incapacitate the guards. Bursting into a room, they startle the occupant who stands up from their seat."What are you doing here?" the person asks, visibly surprised."Tell me where Luna is," Lucas demands, gripping Leo's clothes tightly."What do you mean? Why are you looking for Luna here?" Leo asks, trying to free himself from Lucas's grip and attempting to choke Arka. Arka senses Lucas's emotions and moves closer, trying to restrain him."Don't you want to finish this brat off in our current situation?" Arka says, causing Lucas to finally release his grip on Leo's clothes. He then pushes Leo forcefully, causing him to fall onto the floor."Tell me, did you give her the bracelet she's been wearing?" Lucas asks, making Leo furrow his brows for a moment before lifting his head."So, Luna wears my bracelet every day??" Leo remarks with surprise."That's not the point right now," Lucas replies sternly."Did you plant the
Lucas, Leon, and Arka, followed by Carlos and a few detectives, are currently visiting the homes of fishermen to inquire whether there have been any foreign ships around in the past week. Lucas, Leon, and the others observe Arka as he talks to the fishermen. After waiting for a while, Arka approaches Lucas and the group."How did it go?" Lucas asks."They said there hasn't been any ship passing through Darmaga or any foreign vessel seen in the past week," Arka reports, causing Lucas to rub his forehead, unsure of how to proceed in finding Luna."Does that mean the kidnapper is still on the island?" Leon guesses, to which Arka shakes his head."I don't think so. There must be a way for the kidnapper to take Luna off the island. If he's still here, we would have found her by now," Arka's statement prompts Lucas to nod in agreement."So, what do we do now?" Lucas asks, causing Arka to fall silent as he contemplates their next steps."We need to think of another approach," Arka suggests.
The next morning, Luna woke up to find Travis absent from her room, which brought her a sense of relief. Instead, a servant was present, informed to attend to her needs. "I've prepared warm water for your bath," the servant said as she exited the bathroom, prompting Luna to get out of bed and head towards it.Luna spent a few minutes in the bathroom, trying to gather the courage to use the pregnancy test that Travis had given her. She felt a mix of curiosity and anxiety about whether Travis's claims were true. After a deep breath, Luna finally took the test and then turned her back to it, unable to face the result.Summoning her courage, Luna slowly turned around to see the test. Her eyes widened as her palm covered her open mouth in astonishment. She couldn't believe her eyes – the pregnancy test showed a positive result. Thousands of butterflies seemed to flutter in her stomach as the reality sank in. She felt a surge of joy and excitement.Luna was about to stand up from her seat,
