Chapter 78It's been a few years since Luke and Rebecca went through the grief that tested them. Now, happiness is beginning to return to their lives, especially after seeing the development of their son, Lucas. The ten-year-old grew up with so much energy, always full of vigor as if the world couldn't contain his little steps.But it wasn't just his activity that made Lucas special, it was his extraordinary abilities. He could see into people's pasts and futures, something that not even adults could do.Rebecca and Luke realize this gift was given to them by the Moon Goddess during the Bluemoon festival a few years ago. Whenever Lucas showed them this ability, they were always reminded of that sacred night, a night that brought unexpected blessings to their family.That afternoon, the sun began its slow descent behind the trees, leaving an orange tinge in the dusky sky. Lucas played in the yard, accompanied by Ovy, the loyal servant who had worked with the family for years. Ovy was b
Ch 79That night, the full moon hung perfectly in the sky, its light illuminating Winterblood Castle with an impressive silvery glow. The night sky was clear, and the stars dotting the sky looked as if they were rejoicing in celebrating this special night.Around the palace, the festive atmosphere was felt to the edges of the territory. The Bloodmoon Festival, an annual event held in honor of the Moon Goddess, was in full swing. A giant bonfire burned in the center of a large field, radiating heat and a golden-orange glow that touched the faces of the attendees, creating shadows that moved with the dance of the flames.The sounds of laughter, conversation, and distinctive wolf music enveloped the night. The alphas, betas, and higher-ups of the various packs stood in groups, chatting excitedly with each other. Flags adorned with symbols of the Moon Goddess fluttered softly in the cool night breeze, adding to the majestic atmosphere.In the distance, there was the clattering of wolf dan
Chapter 80The sound of festive music drifted softly, filling the starlit night air. Small lanterns hung all around the open field, creating a golden glow that added to the warm and intimate atmosphere. Pack members laughed and rejoiced, celebrating the annual festival they always looked forward to. Luke stood in the center of the crowd, smiling faintly at his comrades, but inside his heart was a feeling that was hard to explain: an unfilled void.This night should be full of happiness, but Luke feels something different, something he never expected. His emotions began to fray, and he couldn't understand what was making his chest feel tight.An unfamiliar sensation suddenly slipped into his heart. That bond. A mate bond, but strangely, it was not with Rebecca, the woman he had always thought was his destined mate. Her heart rate increased, and cold sweat began to break out on the nape of her neck. In his heart, he knew something had changed. Slowly, his eyes swept the crowd, searching
The night was festive, as the evening breeze rustled gently through the hearing trees of the Winterblood forest. The cold air gently brushed the face of Luke, the Alpha, who stood still at the edge of the forest. His eyes were glued to the star-filled night sky, but his mind was far away. The outward calmness he displayed was at odds with the storm raging in his heart.By his side, Rebecca stood with a growing sense of unrest. Since the last few hours, her husband had seemed more reserved than usual. His every move, from the way Luke stared at the sky to his cold demeanor, made Rebecca even more curious."What's wrong with you, Alpha? Why have you been so quiet?" Rebecca asked softly but with concern. Her voice was almost a whisper, but still clear under the silent night sky.Luke turned his head, staring at his wife for a moment. He tried to mask his anxiety with a faint smile, but it failed to hide the emptiness in his eyes. "I'm okay. There's nothing for you to worry about, Rebecca
CWindows82That morning, Luke's house was a bit chaotic but full of life. Lucas, in high spirits, was running around the living room getting ready for school. His school bag was already slung over his shoulder, and a cheerful smile graced the little boy's face. On the other hand, he was standing in front of the large mirror in his room, wearing a golden silk robe-a symbol of his authority as Alpha. Although the robe hung perfectly on his shoulders, there was something that him feel not quite ready.Luke stared at his reflection in the mirror, noting his tense face. His hands slowly smoothed the frills on the hem of his robe, but his mind seemed to drift. In the midst of the busyness, Rebecca, Luna who always accompanied him with great care, entered the room. She deftly adjusted the collar of her husband's robe, a gentle smile on her lips."Don't get too tense, Alpha," Rebecca sLuna, a soothing tone, smoothing Luke's robe carefully. "This is juremonial event. You've been to many bigge
Chapter 83The ceremonial event at Alpha Aleardo's palace was truly mesmerizing. Sparkling crystal chandeliers hung majestically from the ceiling, creating an atmosphere of luxury and elegance. The soft light from the chandeliers bounced off the shiny clean marble floors, adding to the sense of grandeur from every corner of the room. Guests conversed in respectful whispers, while the soft sounds of music from the orchestra filled the night air. The scent of fresh flowers from the luxurious arrangements around the palace also perfumed the atmosphere, immersing everyone in the graceful atmosphere.Luke stood in the center of the crowd, neatly dressed in a black suit that made his body look even straighter. However, behind his calm appearance, there was a restlessness that could not be hidden. His mind had been spinning ever since his gaze met Emily's. There was something different, something unfamiliar. There was something different, something unfamiliar, and difficult for him to unders
Chapter 84Iceoicee the grand hall of Winterblood Castle, Rebecca stood with a puzzled expression on her face. Tall, gilded pillars surrounded the room, while large windows revealed a view of the vast expanse of snow outside. The air inside the hall was cold, but not just because of the temperature outside. A tense atmosphere pervaded the room, like a storm about to erupt at any moment.Rebecca looked at Luke and Ken, who were standing a few meters in front of her. The two men looked at each other with an inexplicable gaze, a communication that was deeper than words. A strange premonition crept up on Rebecca. Something was being hidden, but she didn't understand what it was."What does that mean? What's going on?" she asked in a trembling voice, trying to understand what was going on. Her eyes moved from the face of Luke, her husband, to Ken, the man who used to fill her past.Luke remained silent, just staring at Ken with an intensity that was hard to describe. He knew Rebecca would
Chapter 85The reddening twilight in the sky illuminated the vast meadow, where the leaves and grasses swayed gently to the rhythm of the afternoon breeze. The sound of the gentle breeze sounded peaceful, but not to Rebecca. The peace she usually felt in this place vanished instantly when her eyes caught Luke standing with another woman.Rebecca's body instantly froze, and inside her chest, something cracked. That girl was too close to Luke. Rebecca's mind was spinning fast, and she felt as if she was staring at a nightmare come true."Luke..." her voice was barely audible, broken by the emotions she had been holding back for so long. "Is what that girl said true? Is she your fate mate?" she asked, her voice trembling as tears began to stream down her cheeks.Luke looked at her, his face full of awkwardness. It was obvious that he was weighing what to say, as if afraid that his words would hurt Rebecca even more.Before Luke could speak, the woman beside him took a step forward, givin
Chapter 110That night, the pale moon hung in the sky shrouded in gray clouds, as if it didn't want to fully reveal itself. The atmosphere was eerie, with a cold breeze that made the branches of the trees creak, creating the impression that something was lurking in the darkness. In front of a dull, unkempt old shack, Lucas stood tall with a cold, piercing gaze, even as his heart rumbled within him.He stared straight ahead, where a girl with a black face full of burns stood trembling. The girl, Elle, was sobbing, her tears flowing unstoppably, but Lucas would not look at her. He knew what she had done, and it was unforgivable.Lucas took a deep breath, trying to tamp down the emotions that were about to explode inside him. "Delta Richard," he called in a firm but flat tone. His voice sounded like a command that could not be refuted. "Take this girl right now to the Winterblood pack. She must be held accountable for her actions there."Richard, a tall man with black hair that had begun
Chapter 109That night, the cold wind was blowing hard, carrying snowflakes that fell relentlessly. The dark sky was covered in thick clouds, with only the occasional glimpse of the full moon obscured by the fog. The atmosphere inside the spacious and majestic room was eerie, although the fireplace in the corner of the room burned brightly, providing a little warmth in the midst of the blizzard outside.Ken stepped quickly into the room with a tense and angry face. His every step echoed on the cold marble floor. Behind him, Delta Richard followed him with a solemn expression, his eyes not leaving Ken's back which looked even more solid as anger overcame him. The air in the room was tense as if everyone was holding their breath.The snow on Ken's fur coat melted and dripped onto the floor, leaving a wet trail. As soon as his gaze fell on Elle, who sat weakly on the floor with a dull face full of wounds, his anger intensified. Next to the girl, Lucas stood transfixed, seemingly unaware
Chapter 108In the middle of a pine forest covered in a white blanket of snow, the silence is eerie. The cold air hugged everything in it, and only the sound of the wind whispering through the tall trees accompanied the journey. Broken, snow-covered branches made a crunching sound under Ken and Richard's boots as they stood still, transfixed by the endless trees.Their faces looked full of anxiety. A moment ago, Emma stood before them, before disappearing into the darkness, leaving behind a warning that made their blood rush faster."Lucas is in this forest. Find him before that black-faced girl kills him, just like she did to Alpha Hernandez's family," Emma said, her voice firm and full of warning.As soon as those words were spoken, Emma disappeared without a trace. Like a wind that suddenly changed direction, so quickly and without warning. Richard stared in the direction Emma had gone, his eyebrows knitted together. "Why does she always disappear like that?" he muttered irritably,
Chapter 107It was getting late, and the silence felt more piercing than just the chill of a mountain night. The simple wooden house in the middle of the forest that usually sheltered Lucas was now filled with tension that hung in the air. The dark, moonless sky emphasized the gloomy atmosphere, while a gust of cold wind broke through the cracks in the wooden walls, making a faint swishing sound that added to the discomfort.On the veranda of the house, Lucas sat leaning against an old, almost fragile wooden chair, his hands firmly gripping the back of the chair. His sharp eyes full of emotion were fixed on Elle, the girl standing not far in front of him. That night, something was different, something that made Lucas feel mixed up. While the sound of her heartbeat echoed in his ears, his mind was filled with confusion and disbelief."How could you say the same thing to me?" asked Lucas in a hoarse voice, almost a suppressed whisper. His tone was filled with shock, perhaps even a littl
CASpter 106Lucas was still sitting in the middle of the street, his body shaking lightly from the adrenaline that was still coursing through his body. His gaze did not shift from the girl standing not far from him. The atmosphere around them was tense, with only the crackling sound of flames from a burning car in the distance, and the thick smell of smoke filling the air. The afternoon sky was covered in dark clouds, leaving only a little light from the obscured moon.The girl, with a jet-black face that looked like it had been burned, stared at Lucas expressionlessly. The large scar on her cheek was clearly visible, but strangely, despite her sinister appearance, there was something in the way she held out a hand that made Lucas feel a little calm."Are you okay?" the girl's voice sounded soft yet firm, as if full of assurance that she was there to help.Lucas remained silent, his gaze blank. His mind was spinning, trying to digest what exactly had just happened. Just a few minutes
Chapter 105This morning Ken woke up with a gasp, his body still feeling the residual tension from the nightmare he didn't fully remember. His eyes looked around Emma's old hut. The weathered wooden walls seemed helpless against time, with cracks letting in the dawn rays. The gloomy atmosphere added to the uncomfortable feel of the hut.Beside him, Richard had woken up first, sitting on the edge of the rickety bed with a dazed face and eye bags that clearly showed a lack of sleep. Outside, birdsong could be heard faintly, but it was unable to ease the anxiety that suddenly enveloped the room."Lucas... where is he?" muttered Richard, his voice full of confusion as his eyes scanned the empty room.Ken snapped out of his slumber, his heart beating faster as he realized Lucas' absence. "He was here last night. I'm sure," Ken said in a firm tone, though in his heart, worry was beginning to creep in. His gaze swept every corner of the old hut, but there was no sign of Lucas."We have to fi
Chapter 104The sound of the fire crackling softly from the small fireplace in Emma's hut mingled with the silence of the night as if forming a rhythm that accompanied the emptiness of Lucas' heart. The cold air enveloped the narrow room, while the old wood of the ceiling cracked adding to the gloomy atmosphere.Lucas sat in the corner, his body motionless, only his empty gaze piercing through the small cracks in the wood. Elara's face swirled in his mind as if haunting his every breath. This nightmare felt real, more than just a dark memory.Ken, who was sitting next to Lucas, looked at the young man with concern. The atmosphere inside the hut was so tense, with the air seemingly holding its breath, only the sound of the fireplace was a silent witness to their despair."Lucas..." Ken opened his voice, quietly but thoughtfully. "I know it's hard, but you need to rest. We need energy for tomorrow, to start looking for answers."Ken's voice didn't seem to touch Lucas. Lucas' eyes remain
Chapter 103As dawn begins to fade at the border of the forest, the atmosphere is quiet and cold. A thin mist drifted between the tall trees, creating a mysterious impression that surrounded every corner of the forest. The biting night air made Lucas, Ken, and Delta Richard's breath turn into a thin vapor that soon disappeared among the mist.Lucas stood at the front, his body tense and his jaw hardened. He didn't say a word, but the anxiety was clear in his eyes. While Ken and Richard who stood behind him, remained vigilant, scanning every corner of the dark and eerie forest."We have to be careful here," Ken muttered, his eyes keenly watching the dense forest before them. "I hear this forest is famous for all sorts of... unfriendly things."Lucas didn't respond. He stepped forward, breaking dry branches under his feet, his eyes focused ahead. Thoughts of Elara filled his mind. No matter what Ken said, there was only one thing that mattered now: finding Elara. All the horrible storie
Chapter 102That morning, dawn was reddening in the sky above Blackmoon Castle, coloring the dusk that began to slowly glow. Fresh air with a cool breeze enveloped the entire neighborhood, carrying the scent of wet soil freshly touched by the morning dew. Lucas, eyes still a little heavy, was awake earlier than usual. The creak of the large wooden door sounded softly as he stepped out of his magnificent room. The hallways of the palace were filled with large, gold-framed paintings that told the long history of the Blackmoon family. His quiet footsteps echoed as if soaking up every memory stored within those walls.Once outside, Lucas' gaze fell on the vast garden that stretched out in front of the palace. It was filled with neatly arranged flowers, with a giant fountain in the center that sparkled with rainbows from the reflected rays of the rising sun. Lucas walked to the stone bench in front of the fountain, sat down, and took a deep breath. It had been years since he had set foot i
