In the early hours, before the first light of dawn, Rafe, Faghri, and I prepared for our venture into the mysterious forest. The sky remained shrouded in predawn gray, and a cool breeze swirled around us.

"Hey Rafe, have you ever thought about becoming a wolf?" Faghri joked, his voice bouncing off the trees, making it seem as if the forest itself joined in the joke. Rafe, his eyes a deep well of untold stories, shot back a look of mild irritation masked by a veneer of calm.

"Not possible," Rafe grunted, his voice harsh, almost lost in the rustling morning air.

I had entrusted Faghri with Rafe's werewolf identity, along with the legends and mysteries that came with it. We moved forward, following the serpentine trail, surrounded by the incessant murmur of the wilderness.

I glanced back periodically to make sure Rafe's crew was stationed around the house, guarding Ani, the young girl still in a vulnerable slumber. Their vigilance brought me a semblance of comfort, but a storm of worry r

    I stood nervously in front of the big suspension bridge over a deep, dark abyss. It was still dark in the valley, as if the night wouldn't leave, even though dawn was coming. The sun wasn't up yet, which made everything seem mysterious. I looked down into the dark hole under the bridge."Rafe...can you carry me?" I half-joked, but I was really nervous. I could feel our legs shaking, scared but ready to cross the bridge.But it wasn't Rafe who answered. "Luna, I'll carry you," Faghri said, his voice calm and friendly, which felt strange because things were tense between us.At that moment, a silent battle began between Rafe and Faghri. "No, I will," Rafe said coldly, glaring at Faghri. Their eyes met fiercely, as if challenging each other."Okay, no need... I'll go alone," I said, hoping to stop their fight before it started. I didn't want to cause trouble between them, so I walked ahead, leaving them behind.The bridge moved a lot under my feet. Each sway made me feel more afraid, as

    In the thick forest, I heard insects and the wind. It made me anxious. I was scared and confused. I had been kidnapped and was now lost, far from my old life.One kidnapper said, "Hey, put the girl down." His voice was rough but clear. They took off my gag. I could hear them laugh, which hurt."They said, "It's sad that a beautiful woman like you will die here." They looked at me strangely. I felt proud to be called beautiful, but also angry. They talked about my life ending soon."Are you really going to kill me?" I asked, trying not to sound scared. I thought being diplomatic might save me. I remembered some wise advice.I tried to talk them out of it, looking for some kindness in them. But they only said, "It depends on our boss." This made me more unsure.When they mentioned "Boss," I got confused. Then, a name popped up in my head, bringing back a bad memory. "Aline..." I whispered, like I was calling a ghost. Then, as if by fate, Aline came out from the trees, smiling in a way I

    Lost in the heart of a forest where every sound seemed to be absorbed, I found myself alone. The two kidnappers who had brought me to this place were now gone, leaving me as the sole participant in a harsh test of wilderness survival, reminiscent of a twisted reality show."Shit," I whispered to myself, my voice sounding strange, almost smothered by the rustling leaves around me.The image of Aline flashed in my mind, her taunting smile that once ignited in me a rage so fierce I thought of strangling her. But the presence of her two large bodyguards always rendered me powerless."What should I do now?" I asked myself quietly, attempting to stay calm.I wasn't sure how much time I could survive in this place. My eyes settled on a towering, thick tree, symbolizing the immense barrier between me and the rest of the world."Even a helicopter wouldn't be able to spot me here," I murmured, acknowledging the grim reality of my situation with a sense of resignation.Trapped in the midst of a

    I still remember our last meeting when the wolf said goodbye in a touching way. Suddenly he turned into a bunch of fireflies and disappeared into the evening light, just like Ani's mother."What's happening here?" I wondered aloud, full of amazement, hoping the magic wolf would understand."What's confusing you? Ani's grandmother's story, or the mystery of my being here?" the wolf replied, laughing a little, as if he was making a joke."Both," I replied quickly.I was really curious to know how Ani's grandmother was saved by this creature."Actually, the two things are connected," the wolf explained and began to tell the story."There was a lady with a necklace, and this necklace was surrounded by a magical glow and ancient magic," the wolf began, getting serious.When he mentioned the necklace, it hit me. My necklace, the one that was stolen by a kidnapper. Could they be related?"The necklace that fell near this cave had great magical power," the wolf said, his eyes shining with mys

    Something strange happens in Rafe's house, especially in Luna's room. A very old magic book, the Grimoire, opens by itself. The room feels even stranger when ghostly laughter is heard. Then suddenly a clear sentence breaks the silence."I must hurry with this plan," says a mysterious voice, and then the Grimoire disappears as if it had never been there.The story moves to the wilds of Borneo, a different and secret place. Here many helicopters, supported by air force planes, are searching for something important.Luna has been missing for two days and nobody knows where she is."That kidnapper!" Rafe says angrily.Rafe hasn't slept in two days, and he's not the only one feeling bad. His friend next to him looks just as tired. Their long search for Luna is frustrating. They keep looking, but it's as if their efforts are lost in the dark, mysterious Borneo forest.In the midst of their worries, Faghri, looking very worried, talks to Rafe. "I have spoken to my family. They can send thous

    I stayed here for two days, using hand signs to communicate with Ani's grandmother. We don't speak the same language, so we can't really understand each other.Ani's grandmother, a kind old lady who once helped us, let me into her house right away before. Then I noticed something strange approaching. It wasn't a person walking, but something else. I remembered the wolf's warning from earlier, telling me to stay inside.And soon a huge wolf appeared with a surprise. This time he had company."Rafe, Faghri," I whispered, shocked to see them together - a man and a wolf making a strange story.I couldn't believe it: Rafe and Faghri, emerging from the mist, riding the giant wolf.Just before I could say more, they both got off the wolf and took my hands warmly. "Luna, we're here," they said together and kissed my hand gently. I was so surprised that I couldn't speak."Yes, thank you," I blurted out, sounding a little silly. It wasn't the best thing to say, but it just came out."Rafe, Fag

    "Luna, your end is near," Aline said. Her voice echoed in the dark forest. She stood still, looking into the darkness like she could see through it.Behind her were armed troops, more than a hundred men, ready for battle. The moonlight shone on their armor, casting long shadows on the leaf-covered ground."I didn't think we'd move so fast," Aline whispered, with a sarcastic smile. The president's daughter was known for her tricky and surprising plans.A few days earlier, a strange dream had disturbed her sleep. A man with a blurry face had appeared, telling her it was time to speed up her plan."But I can't believe werewolves are real," Aline thought out loud, sitting under a tent. She relaxed in a camping chair, watching a cave in the distance."Miss Aline, why not just bomb the cave?" a man from her team interrupted. He stared at the large entrance to the cave, curious about what was inside."You want to kill my husband?" Aline asked loudly, her voice strong. The man in front of her

    I opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was the face of the woman I hated the most."Aline!" I screamed, but I noticed that my hands were already in chains. So were my legs, and Aline was looking at me with that scornful face."Luna, do you know who my father is?" Aline asked again, even though I and everyone else probably knew. Aline was the president's daughter and she always bragged about it."Aline, what do you want?"I grunted, trying to pull at the chains on my hands, but they only felt stronger."Luna, you heard that I know the Alpha Oath, right?" Aline asked and my heart skipped a beat.The Alpha Oath is dangerous, I remembered the story of how Rafe first swore his loyalty to Aline and it was hard to break that oath."You guessed right, Luna," Aline said. Aline's face came closer to me, as if she wanted to look into my eyes."Today I will make Rafe say the Alpha oath again," she said in a slightly hoarse voice full of lust."Aline! Stop your foolishness," I rebelled, but Al

    We visited my grandmother's grave and found the place unkempt. As Rafe had mentioned, her grave had remained intact, contradicting my belief that it had been torn down due to the surrounding new construction."Luna, come on," Rafe urged, leading me to the cemetery.I grabbed some tools and started clearing the overgrown grass."Why hasn't this cemetery been torn down?" I asked, aware of the ruthless business tactics often employed these days, where even homes are not spared for the sake of profit."The company that owns the adjacent property is having financial difficulties," Rafe informed me.Then he added, "I plan to buy all that land," leaving me stunned."Thank you," I said, realizing that expressing gratitude had become a habit for me. I truly appreciated all that he had done.After tending to the grave, Rafe and I decided to dine at a nearby restaurant. Its simple charm was refreshing, a reminder of how much I missed such unpretentious places.Having spent the past month indulgi

    I never thought it would end. The last few months have been really exhausting for me and I'm glad they're finally over."Luna, what are you going to wear?" Rafe asked as he approached me with a group of people behind him. They seemed to be famous fashion designers."What do you think would look good on me?" I replied, bringing out Rafe's playful side."Anything looks good on you, Luna," he flirted, earning nothing more than a playful flick of my tongue in return. Rafe laughed heartily, his demeanor so different from before.He seemed much more alive and approachable now, almost like a new person."Did you hear about Faghri? He's going to run for president," Rafe announced, taking me completely by surprise. Faghri, once notorious for his ruthless ways, had transformed himself into a respectable figure, and now he was eyeing the presidency."Rafe, you're serious, aren't you?" I asked, looking for confirmation in his expression. He nodded solemnly, confirming the surprising news."I'm se

    That morning, the shocking news reverberated across all media platforms, sending waves of disbelief around the world. Television programs, newspapers, and online outlets all carried the same headline: "Assassination at the President's Office: President Etas fatally shot by trusted aide". The uniformity of the reports, which all followed the same chronology, was striking, with not a single source challenging the narrative of President Etas' untimely demise.In stark contrast to this grim news, a more personal story was unfolding in an old but grand home. Here, Rafe and Aline were seen in a tender embrace, their affection evident in front of Rafe's parents. The atmosphere was one of familial warmth and impending change."Rafe, have you decided who you are going to marry?" inquired Rafe's father, a hint of expectation in his voice. Rafe's answer was a nod, followed by a frank admission, "Legally, I am married to Luna. But in matters of the heart, not yet." His words revealed a complicate

    The presidential palace was eerily quiet that day, a stark contrast to the tightly secured perimeter outside. Inside, however, the atmosphere in the President's private chamber was anything but calm.Aline's father, the President, was visibly seething with rage. His face was contorted with rage, the veins on his neck were pronounced, and his body tensed as if ready to spring into action. The anger inside him had reached a boiling point."Bastards! I'll kill them all," he roared, the words thick with raw emotion.The tragic death of his daughter Aline had devastated him. Ironically, he had denied her Secret Service protection out of respect for her wishes to engage in something illegal, a decision he now bitterly regretted."I swear, everyone involved will pay," he bellowed, his tone dripping with vehemence.In a fit of desperation, he threw a paper across his desk, his demeanor mirroring that of someone lost in a terrifying episode of unbridled madness.At that moment, there was a ten

    On the other side of the picturesque park where love once blossomed, next to a quiet street, Faghri sat alone, lost in thought."It seems I took too long to realize it," he murmured to himself, reflecting on his past mistakes.It was a moment of deep regret for Poria. He lamented that he had not met Luna earlier and thought about a different fate."If I had met Luna earlier, would I have been the one she loved?" Faghri wondered aloud.He sat brooding in solitude, struggling with a fate that seemed inexplicable and unfair."Never mind," he finally sighed, trying to accept what he couldn't change.As tears trickled down his cheeks, Faghri quickly wiped them away, trying to regain his composure.Looking back, he noticed that Luna and Rafe had returned. They seemed to have reconciled and returned to normal. Faghri watched them, a mixture of relief and sadness in his heart."How was it? Was the curse finally lifted?" asked Faghri, trying to maintain a calm and undisturbed demeanor regardin

    Luna chased Rafe to the edge of the highway, her heart pounding with a mixture of fear and determination. Rafe stood dangerously close to the edge, his eyes a lifeless gray that reflected his apparent resignation to ending his life."Rafe!" Luna's voice broke through the tense air, a mixture of fear and relief coloring her tone.Rafe turned, his expression one of disbelief. "Why are you here?" he asked, his words laced with disbelief.Without a word, Luna delivered a powerful punch to Rafe's cheek, leaving him momentarily stunned. Her voice, trembling with a cocktail of emotions, scolded him, "What's the point of us surviving all this time if you're just going to throw your life away?"As Rafe looked at her, his eyes changed, darkening with a resurgence of hatred. "Luna...go away. I don't want to kill you," he said softly, his voice strained with the effort of suppressing his darker impulses.It was all because of the Alpha Oath that Rafe harbored a deep-seated desire for revenge agai

    I opened the letter Faghri had just given me. It was a letter written directly from Rafe, who was nowhere to be found.**To Luna,I know I've caused you a lot of trouble. I selfishly planned to save us both from this terrible fate, but now I realize that may not be possible. It seems that one of us must make a sacrifice, and I have chosen to be the one to do so.Luna, perhaps we will meet again in our next reincarnation, hopefully free of this curse. Before I met you, I lived a lonely life, but your presence brought color to my world.For you, Luna, I cannot break the Alpha Oath. After Aline's death, my desire for revenge has grown. I am torn between wanting to hurt you and loving you.You no longer need to look for me. If my father asks, please give him this letter. I do not want to bring suffering to anyone, so I have decided to end my life.I believe the waves will take me to the next life.Thank you, Luna.**The message ended with my heart racing wildly.
