Ethan's POV:

Rufus' words pierced my heart like sharp daggers. It was my fault he had become like this.

Many years ago, there was a witch who I had an entanglement with, and she had fallen deeply in love with me. But I refused to promise her anything. This made her so angry that she cursed me and Rufus, who at the time was only seven years old. She cursed his bloodline, saying that he would never bear any children and that every full moon, he would transform into a vicious monster.
