Author: Ninel nastasya Anna 

In a modern Korean city where nightfall drapes the streets in mist—hiding memories and truths—a shadowy figure reemerges: Asher. With eyes as red as a serpent’s, his gaze reveals that he is not entirely human. He has returned for one singular purpose—to seek out Luna. However, his path is obstructed by the lingering shadow of the past—Rein, who was once cherished by Luna... or so it was believed.

One fateful night, as Luna stands by her window absorbing the cool night air, she catches sight of a figure below. In that fleeting moment, she believes she sees none other than Rein. But the truth is more complicated.

A piercing question escapes her lips,
“Are you not Rein?”

For a split second, everything is suspended in time. Asher’s eyes, filled with an inner turmoil, betray his longing for Luna even as they remain shackled by remnants of a painful past. At his side, Rein’s cold, calculated presence serves as a constant reminder of what once was—and what might never be again.

"His eyes sought her, but the past held him captive."

In this tale, one man’s eyes are a quest for freedom, another’s a burning desire for revenge, and yet another conceals a secret that blurs the line between love and betrayal. Luna, caught in the midst of this emotional tempest, finds herself at the heart of a struggle where truth and deception are interwoven through every glance.
