"Andhara... do you have any connection to the rogues who attacked the village?"

Enne stared at Andhara with sharp eyes, waiting for the man's answer to her question just now. Seconds passed in silence, but Andhara didn't give any reaction. His face remained calm, showing no signs of shock or anger. His silence felt like confirmation to Enne-a wordless answer that confirmed all his suspicions.

Andhara stared back, his eyes deep and enigmatic, yet not a word escaped his lips. Enne felt shaky, but not from the cold. From the look in those eyes, a glimpse of a shadow appeared in her mind, and she felt it-a faint hint of a hidden memory or intention behind Andhara's eyes. Something dark and devious. She tried to make sense of the sudden memory, and the conclusion that came to her was horrifying.

He is indeed one of them... Enne thought with mixed feelings of fear and anger. Andhara was part of the rogues who attacked her village.

The thought disturbed her. It had been a long time since she

    Enne was still rooted to the spot. The word "Alpha" that came out from Lynx echoed in his mind. Alpha? Andhara was an Alpha? His mind instantly spun, remembering Devota who often called Altair with the same title. Isn't an Alpha the leader of a pack, the strongest and most respected? If so, was Andhara as strong as Altair?However, before Enne sank further into her confusion, Lynx's voice rang out again, softer this time, like a mentor about to explain something."Every wolf pack has an Alpha," Lynx said in her mind, his voice soothing, though Enne could sense a hint of worry behind it. "The Alpha is the leader of the pack, the most dominant and the most powerful. An Alpha can be male or female. Altair is the Alpha of your village, but he's not the only one in that position. His cousin, Stella, is the Alpha of another pack. However, since they have separate packs, there is no conflict between them."Enne tried to understand the explanation, although her mind was still shrouded in conf

    Enne blinked her eyes, trying to adjust her vision to the dimly lit room. The pain in her wrists stung, and she soon realized her hands were tied to a cold wooden chair. Her breath caught as her eyes began to focus on who was in front of her.In front of her, stood Andhara with a cold yet meaningful gaze. The man who had always seemed mysterious now stood with a serious expression. However, that was not the thing that made Enne more uneasy. At the side of the room, six people with sharp eyes were watching her. Enne recognized them-they were the rogues who were previously captured and held in the Altair village prison.Enne felt her heart racing. They were the escaped rogues... and they were all here with Andhara, her guess was not off, this was clear evidence that Andhara was one of them.Suddenly, from the shadows in the corner of the room, a person appeared with a dark coat and a hood that covered most of his face. The mysterious figure walked up to Andhara, signaling the other rogu

    Night crept in slowly, bringing with it a chill that pierced the skin. Under the full moonlight that bathed the forest in a silvery glow, two wolf figures galloped through the night mist. In front, Altair, a large white wolf with fur that glistened like snow, was traveling at full speed. Behind him, a slightly smaller gray wolf followed with regular breathing-that was Devota.Altair had not said a word since they left his territory. His heavy breathing sounded rhythmic with the long steps that broke the silence of the night. Devota, who usually didn't say much, knew very well that Altair was lost in his own thoughts. He could feel the worry and tension surrounding his leader."Alpha," Devota's voice sounded in his mind through their mental bond. "Are you sure you're leaving the search for Miss Etienne entirely to the warriors? What if they need you?""I have to do this, Devota," Altair replied in a firm tone, despite the slight uncertainty implied. "Etienne is in greater danger than w

  • IM THE LUNA   Chapter 1. The White Wolf

    Enne's throat constricted as she stared at a pile of bodies scattered in the snowy expanse of the forest. Her blue eyes unintentionally locked with a pair of golden eyes, copper-colored and not belonging to a human, but to a white wolf with fur as white as snow and a body three times larger than an average wolf. The wolf stood just a few meters in front of Enne."Don't look into its eyes! Let's leave this place!"Enne could clearly hear the disembodied voice. It didn't come from any direction but from within Enne's own mind, a voice that sounded different from her own. However, instead of following the advice, Enne froze in her place. Her legs seemed rooted to the spot, and her eyes remained fixed on the wolf's dominating gaze, which was incredibly terrifying.This fear was different from the fear of encountering a wild animal alone in the middle of the forest. It was the fear of meeting someone who held complete power over something, a feeling of being oppressed and uncomfortable. En

    "Did you feel it too?!" The man named Altair Enzo could clearly hear the voice, full of enthusiasm. Instead of answering, Altair sighed heavily."Why? I know you felt it too. That girl... she has what we've been searching for all this time," the voice spoke again."Can you be quiet, Cygnus?" Altair's voice sounded authoritative.Apparently, Cygnus was Altair's inner wolf. Yes, Altair was an alpha werewolf. Behind Altair's captivating pale white skin, sharp jawline, pointed nose, sharp eyes, and perfect physique, he had another form, that of a majestic white wolf with clean fur.Cygnus growled softly, what he wanted was to bring the girl he met earlier in the forest border this afternoon, the girl who was none other than Enne, who possessed the aura that Cygnus had been searching for all this time, his mate's aura."We haven't confirmed it yet. I want to be cautious," Altair calmly stated."I—it—we've been holding back for so long. You don't know how frustrating it is to restrain this

    Enne froze even as Altair approached her. Enne remained still even when she could feel Altair's breath brushing against her neck. The girl was so shocked that she couldn't move. What Enne couldn't clearly see was Altair's struggle with the wolf inside him. Cygnus was truly exerting all his abilities to take over Altair's body, but the man was still trying to defend himself from being taken over. "I don't smell anything." Altair informed him. "You don't know anything, I can clearly see her tempting brown tail swaying." Cygnus insisted. "She's not the girl we're looking for." Altair continued to resist. "I don't care, I want her." Cygnus was consumed by his desire. Altair's face at the intersection of Enne's neck prevented the girl from seeing Altair's eyes changing several times from brown to golden and back to human eyes again, continuously like that until Enne regained control of herself and took a step back from Altair, automatically releasing his hand. "What are you doing?" E

    "Who are you?" Enne immediately asked when the familiar voice sounded again."Do you like him too?" Instead of answering Enne's question, the voice returned with a question of its own."Who?" Enne asked again."The white wolf, at first, he was very scary, he had a strong intimidation, but if you look closely, he's also sweet."Enne frowned as the voice from within her mind resurfaced."The white wolf?" Enne muttered. Her head throbbed in pain. "I'm not crazy, right?" Enne monologued, thinking she was already accustomed to the strangeness within her, like when she could read other people's minds, but this was the first time she experienced something as odd as now, talking to someone who she felt was inside her own body."I am you," the voice said again.Enne shook her head gently, feeling that she was hallucinating."You're not hallucinating," the voice said as if it could read Enne's thoughts."I'm going crazy," Enne murmured softly, feeling her soul shaken a little after meeting the

    "My parents have passed away," Altair replied casually.Enne immediately stopped in her tracks. She didn't mean to bring up such a sensitive topic.A smile appeared on Altair's handsome face as he could see Enne's expression. "I'm fine."Enne didn't say anything else. She awkwardly cut the meat in front of her and continued eating.**Enne tightened her brown coat as the snow began to fall. As a newcomer to the place, she didn't know what tasks to do. Enne glanced at Altair, who seemed busy discussing with a man of his age, wearing a serious expression. They seemed occupied, and Enne didn't want to disturb them.When Enne went to the kitchen, the servants didn't allow her to help with their tasks. Enne was confused, not knowing what to do. In the end, she could only stare at the falling snow in Altair's yard.A white rabbit that was sitting quietly beside Altair's house caught Enne's attention.Enne's legs immediately took her towards the exit, but her steps were halted by a guard blo

    In the middle of a shivering snow-covered forest, Altair stood upright, looking towards the northwest. The thickening snow mist covered the tracks on the ground, making every step elusive. Several warriors stood behind him, awaiting orders. Next to him, Devota looked at him attentively, her eyes trying to read their leader's now troubled face."Alpha," Devota said, her tone formal yet full of concern. "Maybe we should stop the search for a while. This blizzard is getting crazy, and we're losing our way."Altair didn't answer immediately, just squinted, trying to see more clearly even though his vision was obscured by the fog. The cold bit into his bones, and he felt the foreboding growing stronger. But his mind wasn't just on the rogues they were hunting-there was another image nagging at his heart. Enne.She had left the village early in the morning to hunt for the trail of the rogues who had escaped the night before, but ever since the storm had started, she had been feeling restles

    "You've come to your senses," he said calmly, as if this encounter was just an ordinary occurrence.A sense of surprise and alarm immediately crept into Enne's mind. Although she had been rescued by Andhara before, there were many things she did not yet understand about the man, something that made her not entirely comfortable around him.Enne tried to keep her distance and stay alert. Slowly, she got up and leaned against the cave wall, her body still weak but enough to give her some space."You... saved me?" she asked softly, trying to subdue her nervousness.Andhara nodded casually. "I saw you almost freeze to death in the middle of a storm. There's nothing wrong with helping someone who is dying, right?" she said in a light tone.Enne stared at her silently, feeling confused whether to be grateful or even more wary. Andhara's relaxed demeanor didn't seem to imply any bad intentions, but there was something that made it difficult for Enne to feel comfortable.Andhara seemed to sens

    Enne let out a long breath, staring at Altair's retreating back. He knew very well that something was making the man uneasy. The way Altair spoke, the look in his eyes, all implied that he had something on his mind, but he chose to keep it to himself.Trying to divert his mind, Enne obeyed Altair's suggestion to continue with breakfast. With various thoughts in her head, Enne arrived and sat down at the dining table. The aroma of warm bread and winter potato soup was appetizing, but a bit of anxiety still filled her heart. Jessica greeted her with a gentle smile."Good morning, Miss Enne. Please enjoy. I've prepared a winter dish that might warm your heart," Jessica said, pouring Enne a cup of hot tea."Thank you, Jessica," Enne replied with a small smile, trying to hide the feelings of anxiety that surrounded her.The morning passed quietly. Enne enjoyed her breakfast in silence, accompanied by the sound of the winter wind blowing softly from outside the window. However, as the after

  • IM THE LUNA   Chapter 20. The Chase

    That morning, the corridor was quiet, as if waiting for something unexpected. Altair walked with firm steps, his intention was only one-a quick breakfast before starting the day. He imagined the warmth of coffee chasing away the cold in his throat. Occasionally, he rubbed his hands that were reddened by the cold air, although the freezing he felt was not only because of the freezing season but also the atmosphere that somehow felt more tense than usual.When she almost reached the dining room, her steps faltered. At the end of the hallway, she saw Devota, a Beta she could always count on. However, there was something odd about the man's face. His face was pale, as if he carried bad news that was too heavy to say."Devota?" called Altair, quickening his pace.Devota looked nervous, but the man managed to control his emotions. "Alpha... there's a big problem."Altair stopped the pace, his forehead furrowed deeply. "What's going on?"Devota looked directly at the Alpha. "The captives...

    The snow continued to fall, piling up on the window frames until the room felt quieter, more silent. The silence almost made time stand still, only the faint sound of the fire in the fireplace occasionally crackling in the corner of the room, creating a little warmth in the midst of the cold night. Altair sat across the table, his gaze dreamy. His face was serious, focused, but occasionally his gaze softened when his eyes glanced briefly at Enne.In his mind, Altair tried to piece together the facts about the rogue arrests that happened this morning. The six who were caught were a stubborn group-more persistent than originally thought. Despite being caught, they still refused to give any further information. And one thing that kept ringing in his mind was the reason behind their actions. Those rogues weren't just rioting to cause trouble; they were attacking the village, as far as Altair could tell, he found a loophole, they were doing it for revenge. But revenge against whom?
