**Chapter 1: The Awakening** 

Lee Jong had always been an ordinary 18-year-old—good at sports, decent in school, and hopelessly in love with his childhood friend, Hana. She was the only one who truly understood him, the one who made his heart race with just a smile. But everything changed on the night of the Blood Moon. 

While walking home through the dense forest near his village, Lee Jong heard a growl—deep, guttural, and unnatural. Before he could react, a massive black wolf lunged at him from the shadows. Pain seared through his body as the beast’s claws tore into his flesh. Just as he thought it was the end, the wolf’s eyes glowed crimson, and instead of killing him, it *merged* with him. 

When Lee Jong woke up, he was alone, covered in dried blood—but unharmed. His senses were sharper, his body stronger. And then, the whispers began—the wolf’s voice in his mind. 

**Chapter 2: The Beast Within** 

At first, Lee Jong thought he was losing his mind. But when a group of thugs tried to attack Hana one night, something inside him *snapped*. His bones cracked, his muscles twisted, and fur sprouted from his skin. In seconds, he was no longer human—he was a wolf, tearing through the attackers with terrifying strength. 

Hana stared at him in shock, fear flashing in her eyes. Lee Jong fled before she could see more. 

Now, he had to learn to control the beast inside him while hiding the truth from the girl he loved. But dark forces were stirring—the same ones that had sent the black wolf after him. A secret order of hunters had been watching, waiting for the next "Wolfborn" to emerge. 

**Chapter 3: Love and Blood** 

Hana, though frightened, refused to abandon Lee Jong. She had always believed in him, and even now, she sought him out, determined to understand what was happening. Their bond deepened as she helped him tame the wolf’s instincts, their love growing stronger amidst the chaos. 

But the hunters were closing in. Led by a ruthless man named Daeho, who had a personal vendetta against the Wolfborn, they set a trap. When Hana was captured, Lee Jong had to make a choice—surrender to the wolf’s full power to save her or risk losing her forever. 

**Chapter 4: The Final Howl** 

Under the next Blood Moon, Lee Jong embraced the wolf completely. With monstrous strength and speed, he tore through the hunters’ stronghold, fighting his way to Hana. Daeho, wielding a silver blade, stood in his way. 

The battle was brutal, but love gave Lee Jong the edge he needed. He defeated Daeho, but not without cost—the wolf’s power was consuming him. As he held Hana, his humanity slipping away, she whispered the words that anchored him back: 

*"I’m not afraid of you. I love you, no matter what form you take."* 

With her love as his tether, Lee Jong found balance—neither fully man nor fully wolf, but something in between. Together, they vowed to protect each other from the shadows that still lurked, ready for the next hunt. 

**Epilogue** 

Lee Jong and Hana stood atop a cliff, watching the sunrise. The wolf inside him stirred, but it no longer controlled him—it was a part of him, just as Hana was. 

And as the wind carried his howl into the dawn, he knew their story was far from over. 

**The End… or Just the Beginning?**
