"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

  • IM THE LUNA   Chapter 27. Traces in the Full Night

    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 28. Home at Midnight

    The night air was cold when Enne opened his eyes slowly. He found himself in a room with simple wooden walls. Unlike the previous places that were dark and gloomy, this house looked ordinary, like a normal human home. A small wooden table, a simple sofa, and a fireplace in the corner of the room gave the impression of warmth, but Enne knew better than to let her guard down.The last thing Enne remembered was Andhara who was about to tackle her too, but Enne struggled until they almost fell, but at that moment, Andhara suddenly knocked her out until Enne didn't remember anything anymore.Enne reflexively held her neck, afraid that Andhara had really marked her, but she didn't feel anything like when Altair marked her first. Enne could only hope that Andhara didn't do anything to her while she was unconscious.In the end, Enne carefully observed her surroundings. There was no sign of the rogues or the person in the black hood that she had seen earlier. But Andhara-the man who had brough

    The sun had just risen when Stella returned to the Purple Moon Pack with a triumphant expression. Her long black hair that was usually neatly arranged was now a little messy, and blood stains decorated her leather jacket. Behind her, several warriors from her pack followed with heavy steps, carrying the lifeless body of the rogue.Altair, who was waiting for Stella's news in the main hall, rose from his chair upon seeing his cousin. His eyes swept over Stella carefully, making sure she was unharmed."You're late," Altair said in a low tone. "What happened?"Stella pushed aside the strands of hair that fell on her face, then folded her arms across her chest. "That Rogue is harder to catch than I thought. She had incredible agility, but in the end she was outmatched by us.""And she died," Altair replied coldly.Stella nodded, not looking the least bit sorry. "He was too dangerous to be left alive. Besides, she didn't give us much information, except for one important thing.""What's th

    The snow that covered the forest created an atmosphere of piercing silence, only the roaring steps of Altair and Stella in wolf form could be heard. Altair, in his dashing white wolf form, led at the front with incredible speed. Stella followed closely, her gray wolf looking alert and full of concentration.Altair's mind whirled endlessly. The conversation before this trip kept haunting his mind.***"Altair, you have to trust Cygnus," Stella said as they talked in Stella's study. "If you and Enne are truly mates destined by the Moon Goddess, you have a bond with her. Use that to find her."Altair stared at Stella with a sharp gaze, her facial expression showing doubt. "That bond might not be strong enough. I've only marked it, and Enne... she hasn't even accepted Lynx's existence completely.""That's not important," Stella replied firmly. "You've already marked it. That's enough to start the bond between your inner wolves. You just need to ask Cygnus to search for Lynx's whereabouts.

    Andhara was still silent.Lynx, who had long been silent due to his weakness, suddenly took over Enne's body. Golden light surrounded the girl's body, and in an instant, her body transformed into a beautiful golden brown wolf. The wolf instantly shot off at high speed, leaving the still shocked Andhara behind.'I know you're weak, Lynx,' Enne thought from inside her body. 'But thank you.'It's our job to survive, Enne,' Lynx replied in a determined tone.The cold wind and freezing snow were no obstacles. Lynx continued to run as fast as he could, crossing trees and jumping over roots hidden under the snow. However, behind him, the sound of heavy steps began to be heard.'He's chasing us,' Lynx said.Enne turned her head and saw Andhara in the form of a large, fearsome-looking black wolf, with fiery red eyes full of determination. She was getting closer, reducing the distance between them.***On the other side, Altair and Stella had arrived at a denser forest, where tall trees stood l

    The sky outside Purple Moon village was still gray, a sign that snow would fall again at any moment. Inside the warm healing room, the atmosphere remained tense even though the physical threat had passed. Altair stood by the window, his gaze blank through the misty glass. Enne lay unconscious, surrounded by the sharp yet soothing scent of herbs. Lynx, Enne's inner wolf, did not even make a sound.The healer was busy mixing herbs with quick but measured movements. Altair could only watch from a distance, his heart filled with an indefinable sense of anxiety.Andhara's name kept echoing in his mind, like a thorn piercing deep. Altair remembered the first time he faced Andhara. It was not a battle like tonight, but an encounter carefully designed by Andhara.At that time, Andhara deliberately provoked Altair to make the man almost pounce on him by turning into a wolf, unfortunately Enne was still there with them, it was the first time Enne saw Altair's transformation into a wolf, and of

    As they walked towards the dining room, Enne couldn't shake off her uneasiness. Not only because Stella would definitely tease her again to no end, but also because of the strange feeling that had been lingering in her mind since this morning. Lynx briefly called out her name, but then went silent again.He glanced at Altair, who was walking leisurely beside him. The man looked as he always did-cold, calm, and in control. But there was something in the way he held her hand that felt different. Tighter, as if to ensure that he was there.Once they arrived at the dining room, Stella was waiting with a meaningful expression."Good morning, new couple," Stella greeted in a teasing tone.Enne immediately felt his face heat up, while Altair only gave a small snort before sitting down in his chair.Stella chuckled, her eyes twinkling with satisfaction. "Why is your face red, Enne? Ah, aren't you still tired from last night's practice?"Enne almost choked on the water she had just drunk. "Ste

    That morning, the sun filtered in through the gap in the curtains, illuminating the room with a soft golden light. The morning air was still cool, even though winter had already passed. Enne sat on the side of the bed, his fingers playing with the ends of the thin scarf wrapped around his neck. It was not his habit to wear a scarf indoors, but this time he felt he needed it.Meanwhile, Altair was still lying on the bed, one arm bent behind his head, his eyes watching Enne with his usual relaxed expression. He could feel the subtle tension from the girl, especially after the night they had spent together. Altair did not regret it-not in the slightest. In fact, this was something that should have happened a long time ago.However, before they could talk further, the door to the room opened without warning."Good morning, new couple!" Stella appeared with leisurely steps, a meaningful smile etched on her face. "How did you sleep last night? Good?"Enne was shocked to death and almost jum

  • IM THE LUNA   Chapter 62. Advanced Training

    The training between Enne and Altair that was originally meant to be a simple training session slowly turned into something more than just physical exercise. The quiet night, lit by the faint moonlight, created an intimate atmosphere between them. Their breathing was ragged, not just from exhaustion, but from the tension that was slowly building between them.As Enne tried to launch her final attack, Altair easily dodged and caught her wrist. With one swift movement, Enne lost his balance, and in an instant he was in Altair's arms. Her heart was beating fast as their gazes met. Altair's dark eyes were filled with something Enne had never seen before-unrestrained desire."You did well," Altair murmured, his voice deep and filled with pent-up emotion.Enne was speechless. The air between them was heavy with something unspoken. Altair's hand that was still grasping her wrist slowly moved to her face, gently caressing her cheek. Enne held her breath, feeling the warmth from his touch."Al

    That night, the sky above Pack Altair was covered with glittering stars. The night breeze blew gently, caressing the leaves and carrying the distinctive scent of damp forest soil. Inside his quarters, Enne sat on the edge of the bed, fiddling with his fingers restlessly. It had been several days since his secret training with Stella and until now, he still hadn't found the courage to speak to Altair."You must persuade him, Enne. If anyone can do it, it's you." Stella's words were still ringing in her head.Enne sighed heavily. It was not an easy thing to do. Not because she didn't want to be honest, but because every time she tried to open her mouth, her tongue felt numb. Altair, with his cold calm demeanor, always managed to make her lose her nerve at the last moment. But that didn't mean she gave up.Throughout the day, Enne tried to find the right time. Several times, he found himself face to face with Altair, but when the man's piercing gaze traced his face, his guts shrank. Ever

    Devota stood tall before Altair, his eyes radiating seriousness as he delivered his report."Before I saw firsthand, Alpha Stella asked me to vacate the training area. I thought it was just normal training, but after I checked... I saw Stella was training with Luna Etienne."Altair did not respond immediately. His sharp eyes scrutinized Devota for a moment, before he finally leaned back in his chair, his fingers interlaced on the sturdy wooden table. To be honest, he was surprised-not because Stella was training Enne, but because Enne chose to hide this from him."She did it behind my back..." Altair muttered more to himself.Devota watched her leader's expression intently, trying to understand his reaction. She had expected Altair to be angry or at least annoyed that Luna was training without his knowledge. But the opposite was true-Altair was only surprised, not angry. He seemed more worried than upset."You're not angry?" Devota asked finally.Altair shook his head slowly. "I don't

    Enne bit her lip, holding her breath as Stella attacked her again. He tried to defend himself, but as time went on, his reflexes slowed down. Her legs began to feel heavy, her body began to lose balance.Stella quickly seized the opening. Within seconds, she launched a flurry of attacks-punches, kicks, deadly moves that Enne could usually avoid. But this time, Enne was overwhelmed.Her feet stumbled as she tried to dodge, and before she could balance herself, Stella had already grabbed her arm and pushed her to the ground. Enne fell with a thud, her breath coming in gasps."You're starting to slow down," Stella commented, giving her a sharp look.Enne growled, trying to get up, but her whole body felt heavy. She looked at Stella in frustration. "I... I don't know why."Stella watched him intently, her brow furrowed. Since the beginning of the practice, she had felt that something was off with Enne. His initial movements were quite good, but over time, he grew slower and seemed unfocus

    Enne sat on the balcony of his residence, staring into the distance with a blank expression. The sun was about to set, leaving a beautiful orange tinge in the sky. However, his mind could not enjoy that beauty at all.It had been more than a week since the incident at her wedding-since Andhara had kidnapped her.Or rather, someone who looked like Andhara.Ever since then, something had been wrong. Something that bothered her so much that she had trouble sleeping.Lynx was still asleep.Enne had tried to talk to her wolf. He had closed his eyes many times, focusing, hoping to hear Lynx's distinctive voice that was usually sharp and sarcastic. But, there was no answer.Normally, Lynx wouldn't stay silent if Enne felt uneasy.But now, the silence she felt was even more frightening.'What exactly is happening to me?'Her hands clenched into fists on her thighs. Ever since that incident, she tried to live her days normally. As if nothing had happened. However, the empty feeling inside her

    "You've done your job well, Devota," Altair said finally. "But from now on, I will handle this myself."The next day, Altair called a surprise meeting with all the pack members. No one knew what would be discussed, but once they saw the cold look in their leader's eyes, no one dared to underestimate the urgency.Enne, who was standing beside Altair, felt confused by this situation. However, he did not say anything, just waited like the other members.When everyone had gathered, Altair stepped forward."I want to discuss something I shouldn't have to," his voice sounded heavy, each word containing power. "Our Luna has been accepted in a legitimate ceremony, and that means she is one of us. However, I hear there are those who still question her position."Silence fell over the place."I don't care who you are or where you come from, but one thing you must understand-no one in this pack has the right to challenge my decision." Altair's eyes swept the crowd with his piercing gaze. "Enne i

  • IM THE LUNA   Chapter 56. A Luna's Trials

    Enne began to understand that being Luna wasn't just about being Altair's mate or standing by his side as he led. It was about how she was accepted by the rest of the pack, how she proved herself not only as Alpha's mate, but also as a leader they could respect.However, not everyone welcomed him with open arms.Ever since the inauguration ceremony, there were some pack members who seemed to keep their distance from her. Enne was aware of the doubtful looks that were thrown his way, the subtle whispers that often stopped as he approached.One morning, as she walked through the village center with Lyra, they passed a group of pack members talking. As Enne and Lyra passed by, their conversation suddenly stopped. Some of them seemed to bow their heads, while others looked at him with expressions that were difficult to interpret."Looks like someone still has doubts about you," Lyra whispered after they moved away.Enne sighed. "I know. But I don't know how to change that."Lyra smiled fa
