The night Luna was born, the sky burned red with the cursed light of the blood moon. While the villagers whispered prayers and turned their faces away from the glow, an infant’s cry echoed across the fields, sealing her fate. To most, the night was a superstition, a passing omen that would fade with the dawn. But to the Elders, who knew the ancient stories, it was a warning. Children born beneath the blood moon were marked—bound to a destiny neither they nor their families could escape. And so Luna’s life began, not as a blessing, but as a question. A secret. A burden.For seventeen years, she lived quietly in the shadows of her village, believing herself ordinary. She worked the fields, tended to her mother, laughed with her childhood friend Elias, and dreamed of nothing beyond the forest’s edge. Yet on nights when the moon shone too brightly, she felt a stirring inside her—a strange ache, a pull toward something she could not name. She hid it well, convinced it was only her imagination. But the truth was never far behind.When the Watchers came, everything changed. Silent and faceless, they moved through the village like shadows, their presence suffocating, their purpose undeniable. They were searching for her. The mark she never knew she carried had finally revealed itself, and no prayer, no wall, no pleading could shield her from their gaze. In that single night, the fragile world she had known shattered, and Luna was forced to run for her life.At her side was Elias—the miller’s son, steadfast and unyielding, who had promised long ago that he would protect her, even if it meant facing the darkness itself. His courage was her anchor, his loyalty her only light as they fled into the depths of the forest. Yet even as he guided her through hidden paths and across dangerous rivers, Luna sensed that Elias knew more than he let on. He spoke of old myths, of sanctuaries veiled in mist, of wards older than memory itself. And though he never confessed it outright, his knowledge of the Watchers and the blood moon hinted at secrets that bound him to her fate.The road eastward is long and treacherous. The forest whispers with unseen voices, the rivers hide dangers beneath their calm surfaces, and the Watchers never cease their hunt. Each night, beneath the rising moon, Luna feels the weight of her curse press heavier upon her shoulders. She begins to realize that the blood moon is not merely a sign of doom, but a tether to something vast, ancient, and unyielding. It calls to her in dreams, in silence, in the moments between heartbeats, demanding that she face the truth of who she is.And yet, Luna’s journey is not only about survival. It is about choice. The choice to accept fear or resist it. To surrender to despair or hold fast to hope. To close her heart or risk it to love, even when love itself might demand sacrifice. As her bond with Elias deepens, so too does the danger that surrounds them. For in a world ruled by shadows and secrets, love is both a strength and a vulnerability.Whispers of a sanctuary promise safety, a place untouched by the Watchers, hidden by mist and protected by enchantments. To reach it is to find freedom. But freedom, Luna learns, is never simple. Along the way, she must confront not only the hunters that stalk her but also the truth of her birth, the legacy of the blood moon, and the final tear that destiny demands she shed.The Watchers are not her only enemies. Superstition, betrayal, and the fear of those who do not understand her become obstacles of their own. Neighbors who once greeted her with warmth now whisper behind closed doors, convinced that she is cursed. Strangers see her as a threat, a harbinger of ruin. Trust becomes a rare gift, and betrayal an ever-present shadow. In such a world, Luna must decide who she truly is—prey to be hunted, or a force strong enough to break the chains of her fate.Luna’s Last Tears is a dark fantasy romance woven with danger, mystery, and heartache. It is the story of a girl cursed by fate yet strengthened by resilience, of a boy who would defy the darkness for her sake, and of the fragile line between hope and despair. It is about the courage to walk into the unknown, the strength to face what hides in the shadows, and the power of love to endure even when the night seems endless.In the end, Luna must learn that her tears are not a weakness, but a beginning. That even beneath the cursed light of the blood moon, there lies a chance for rebirth, for freedom, and for a destiny she chooses for herself. Her story is one of courage, sorrow, and the unyielding light that survives even the darkest night.Beyond her personal struggle, the land itself seems to echo Luna’s fate. The blood moon is not only her curse—it is a scar upon the world. Wherever its light touches, crops wither, rivers run sluggish, and shadows grow unnaturally long. Old songs speak of a cycle that repeats every hundred years: when the cursed child rises, so too wi
