I am Bel-eshir, the young king of this kingdom. To the people, I am a mysterious ruler who rarely appears in public. Many know my name, but very few have ever seen my face. I do not care about fame, praise, or luxury. I only keep a small group of trusted people beside me. They are the only ones who know my deepest secret and help me manage the kingdom. I have spent my entire life hiding a truth that no one else can know. My royal blood carries an ancient curse from the Moon God. Every full moon night, my body transforms into a powerful ancient beast. It is not a normal wolf. It is a terrifying creature with incredible strength. However, my human mind remains inside the beast. I can still think, feel, and remember, but the beast instinct becomes stronger and harder to control. I hate this form. I hate feeling like a monster. I fear hurting innocent people more than anything. Before every full moon, my trusted people lock me inside my room with chains and a muzzle. I allow them to do this because I would rather suffer alone than harm someone else. When I become the beast, the world only sees a dangerous monster. But one night, after an accident at the palace, I escaped while wounded and lost in my beast form. Deep in the forest, I met a lonely hunter. They did not fear me. They did not try to hurt me. Instead, they treated my wounds, gave me water, and showed me kindness without knowing who I truly was. They gave me a name: "Ruk." They do not know that the beast they saved is actually Bel-eshir, the king they have never seen. To them, I am only a mysterious beast that appears during full moon nights. I may be a cold and powerful king in front of the world, but love changes me completely. When I truly love someone, that person becomes the only person I can see. The world, my duties, my power, and my crown become meaningless compared to them. No matter how dangerous I become as Ruk, I would never hurt the person I love. In front of that person, the feared king disappears. The cold ruler becomes gentle, loyal, and almost like a different person. The one who controls everything can finally let go and show his vulnerable side. For the first time in my life, I do not want to be feared. I only want to be accepted.
