"Luna, wake up..." I was awakened suddenly.

I don't know how long I slept but when I heard Nayeon's low voice, I opened my eyes and turned to her. It must be evening. I stared at her for a while and slowly sat up on the bed while looking at my children who were still sleeping. They are good at sleeping. After feeding both of them, I put them to sleep and while watching them, I cried my heart out thinking about Jungkook and then I fell asleep without even knowing.

"Luna, you need to hurry up. We have to leave..." What is she saying? Do we have to leave? Where? Where do we have to leave all of a sudden? When I was about to ask her the questions in my head, we heard a noise outside. It was as if someone was whimpering from pain. My body was startled. Horror took over me and I immediately got up from the bed.

"Stay with them!" I said to Nayeon before hurrying my steps out of the room ignoring Nayeon's warning asking me not to go out. I came downstairs and saw blood. The heavy smell of blood easily gave me the feeling of nausea and disgust. What happened? What happened here? No one was there to be found so l decided to walk out of the house.

The moment I stepped out, I saw Jin who was ripping an unfamiliar man's head apart. I was shocked and my legs trembled. Did... did he just kill a man? I chewed my bottom lips and took a step back but Jin's eyes fell on me. His eyes are glowing yellow which made me believe that it was his wolf who was controlling his body. Seeing me, he threw the dead body of the man aside and came to me.

"Luna, the news of Alpha's death has spread everywhere already. Just because the children are small, they have already begun to fight for the Alpha position! You need to leave, you need to leave with your children right now before they can do something to you and them."

What? Has already begun to fight for the alpha position? How come? It's been only two days... only two days since they brought the bad news and people are already fighting for the position? I clutched the skirt of my dress staring at Jin with a frozen heart. What is happening to us? To me and my children now?

"Where's Alpha Lee Dong-Wook?" I couldn't help but ask him. Jin let out a deep sigh and took a step closer to me as he lowered his head and whispered something against my ear which made my heart skip a beat with horror.

"Alpha Lee Dong-Wook is gathering men for a war. Right now, he's the alpha of all of us but he's too old to bear the position, that's why people began to act up. Alpha Lee Dong-Wook was the one who instructed us to take you away, Luna. Please hurry up, I'll take you and Nayeon somewhere safe. Somewhere Alpha built for Ayaan's protection if a situation like this occurred."

My eyes were covered with tears again. He had done everything for his children and me but why did he have to leave so suddenly? I nodded at Jin and wiped my tears. I have no idea why all these things are coming into our lives so suddenly but at least I have to protect myself and my children. Without waiting any more, I hurried my steps back to my room.

As I entered, I saw Nayeon gently caressing Ayaan's hair while her eyes were on Yuna. She turned to me upon my arrival at the room. Her eyes were reddened and showed fear. Without saying anything, I entered the dressing room and grabbed a bag as I put on some of my light clothes. Then I ran into Ayaan's room and put a few clothes on him before putting on the diapers and dresses that Yuna would need. Once I was done, I came back into the room.

"Can you take Yuna? I will take Ayaan." Nayeon nodded at me as she gently picked up my daughter to her embrace and hugged her against her chest. With that, I moved closer to Ayaan. I needed to wake him up but I didn't know how to answer his questions once he woke up. Instead of waking him up, I carried him and hurried my steps out of the room. As soon as I came out of the room I saw a man standing there. He glared at me and smiled. The smile was vicious and creepy. My heart began to thump inside my chest without a hint of gentleness. And I suddenly realized something as my nose filled with the weird scent I'd never felt before. This man is a vampire... I can't believe that a vampire barged into this house.

"Going somewhere, Luna?" He asked with a mocking tone. Then his eyes fell on Ayaan. I hugged him tightly against my chest, biting my lower lip. I won't let anything happen to my children.

"It's a pity that you lost your husband this soon. But we are glad to hear that the beast is dead. If you want to continue living, you can hand over this little one to us." I swallowed hard. The man's words are like daggers to my heart. He's saying that he's glad about Jungkook's death but why did he call him a beast? And why do I have to give Ayaan to them? I'm not giving my son to anyone.

"Step aside!" I said I wanted to leave here as soon as possible. I can feel the situation is getting worse with every second I spend here.

"You surely look as gorgeous as they mentioned. Well, let's do this. Both you and your son should go with me to meet our leader. How about it?" This man is crazy. What is he even talking about, I don't even understand. Who's his leader? A rogue? I don't care about either a rogue or a vampire, I just need to leave without being too late.

Where's Jin? How did this vampire enter the house without making Jin realize it? How am I going to escape from this man now? I don't know... I turned back and looked at Nayeon. She looked scared... I know that she's not someone who's so brave when it comes to things like this. She's innocent and kind. My mind was both scared and helpless. I have no idea what to do now. There's no way that I can fight because I was holding Ayaan. The vampire moved closer to me as he grabbed my hand.

"You are going with me!" He said roughly as he pulled me to him. I immediately shook the pale hand away from me. I looked around me to see if there was a chance for us to escape from this man but before I could even think about something else, the vampire who was in front of me coughed blood. I was utterly shocked and I jumped back.

"Luna, hurry up..." It was Jeongyeon who appeared. I sighed in relief as I followed her. She took us out of the house on a path that I'd never known before. I never thought that there was a secret path in this country. Jungkook was truly amazing and he had arranged everything for an emergency. When I think about him, suddenly my heart begins to burn again as my eyes are covered with a layer of tears. How can I continue living without him? I was already with two children and he suddenly left us alone. I bit my lip harder, preventing myself from beginning to sobbing here. His face was appearing in my mind without stopping and all those memories and appearances in my dreams did nothing but destroy my heart brutally.

"Where are we going?" While walking in the middle of the forest, I asked Jeongyeon. She was leading us somewhere that I hadn't even seen before and this dangerous forest was scaring me. Fear, pain of losing my husband, helplessness, and agony controlled me as I felt I was losing my mind. It's been hard for me to keep my sanity in the right place after knowing that Jungkook was gone. It's been two days and every second I spent thinking about him was killing me slowly.

"A secret place that Alpha built," She answered. She said nothing more as he led us. I walked through the forest and finally, we stopped at a house. A house in the middle of nowhere. Jeongyeon opened the door of the house and waited for me to go in. When I and Nayeon entered, she looked at me and sighed.

"Luna, stay here. Don't open the door for anyone. If someone is knocking on this door, it should only be me, Jin, or Alpha Lee Dong-Wook and you know our voices. You have everything you need here. Until the situation here gets better, you should stay hidden." I felt my headache as I listened to her. Jeongyeon watched me for a moment and then lowered her head as she turned to leave after giving me the keys to the door. Jungkook is gone... the better, peaceful, and happy life I spent is over. Now it will all be about survival, hiding, and protecting my children. Teardrops rolled down from my eyes and I closed the door after Jeongyeon left.

Look how fast my happiness faded away. Look how fast our lives changed. Without him, I don't know what will happen to us. I closed my eyes and forced myself not to cry. I've been crying for two days without stopping and I'm so exhausted but still, I can't help but cry for him. I just loved him so much. Although both of us didn't utter that we loved each other, we both knew that we loved each other. I know he loved me and he also knew that I loved him. Wish I could tell him that I loved him... after everything he did for me and our children.

"Luna, get some rest..." I heard Nayeon behind me. I lowered my head and headed towards the stairs of the house as I went upstairs. I opened the first room I saw and put Ayaan on the bed as Nayeon did the same.

"I don't know why people are so rude," Nayeon mumbled. I listened to her but didn't add any comments. People are indeed rude. Fighting for a posting that they can't even touch or feel. It's all about nothing but power.
