When he turned eighteen, he met Sophia during their final year of training at the pack’s warrior academy—a place where young wolves learned to control their transformations, hone their strength, and understand the ancient laws that governed their kind.
What began as a simple friendship soon deepened into genuine love.
Two years later, beneath the light of the full moon, Marcus asked Sophia to become his future Luna.
She accepted without hesitation.
Their engagement was celebrated warmly throughout the pack. The elders blessed their union, and many believed the two young wolves would bring prosperity and happiness to the territory in the years to come.
Everything seemed perfect.
But while Marcus was happily building his future, someone else had already begun watching him with growing resentment.
And that person’s jealousy would soon destroy everything.
Among werewolves, jealousy was often described as the most poisonous sickness that could infect a wolf’s heart.
Once it took root, it spread like wildfire—devouring reason, loyalty, and love until nothing remained.
And when that fire burned long enough, it destroyed everything in its path.
Even the one who carried it.
