Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge

"Fine. I'll bring him back tonight so get ready." Raizel finally agreed. "Again, be careful in dealing with him. He might hurt any of you." He warned them.

"I can protect her," Kira said with so much conviction.

"She's a werewolf. She can protect herself. But I'm afraid that her wolf might hurt Roland Zhou since he'd become a bloodthirsty vampire."

Marceline narrowed her eyes at Raizel. She didn't like the way he talked to her and Stella. They would never hurt someone, especially those close to them.

"Don't compare us to other werewolves, Mr. Scarlet. You are wrong to think of us like that."

Raizel just gave her a mocking smile. "We will find out once you meet each other."

Raizel didn't stay long. He immediately left the Zhou Ancestral Mansion. Tonight, he will bring Roland Zhou. Kira and Marceline had decided to keep him in the underground basement of the Zhou Ancestral Mansion. Kira's casket was also being stored down there.

When Raizel left, Marceline chose to be alone in her study. She didn't want to talk to Kira as she needed to clear her mind. In fact, she was shaken by this revelation. There was a possibility that the family whom she thought was hers was all fake.

Marceline slammed her eyes shut while clenching her fists. If she was not part of the family, then why was she being raised by the Zhou? Her parents and grandfather didn't make her feel like she was an outsider.

They loved her so much. Now, she wondered if her grandfather knew about her nature? What if she was truly a werewolf to begin with? Would Grandpa Roland still accept her? Her kind killed his son and his daughter-in-law. She was the only survivor.

"Kira will also hate me…" Marceline mumbled to herself. Her heart was filled with anxiety. But no matter what happened, she had to know the truth.

She remembered Stella. She wondered if Stella knew something.

'Stella, are you here? Can you hear me?' Marceline asked Stella through their mind link.

'Yes, I'm here. Is there something you want to know?' Stella promptly responded. She could also feel that Marceline's mind was preoccupied with a lot of things.

'Yes… Do you know who's my family? Am I a human or a werewolf? How did I become a werewolf?' Marceline asked Stella expectantly. Though she had plans of having a DNA test with her grandfather, Uncle, and cousin, she still wanted to hear Stella.

Stella fell silent for a moment. She was assessing Marceline's feelings. Would she handle the truth? This was the first time Marceline asked her about her nature and origin.

'I'm you and you are me. We've been together since you were born. Does this answer your question? I can't give you more answers as I was sealed for a long time.'

Marceline was rendered speechless. This only meant that she was indeed a werewolf. She had been born a werewolf and Stella was already with her.

"Does it mean… the Zhou Family is not my family?" Marceline mumbled. She felt like every ounce of her energy was drained in an instant.

Stella didn't want to say it so she just remained silent. She already knew that Marceline was having a hard time accepting this fact.

Just like Stella, Kira was worried about Marceline. He had been standing outside her room, waiting for Marceline to come out. He didn't want to disturb her.

He was also having conflicting thoughts about this. If Marceline was a werewolf, should he follow Raizel's advice? He had to stay away from her. Could he do it?

*****

Several hours had passed and Raizel came back to Zhou Ancestral Mansion. He brought the coffin where Grandpa Roland was sleeping.

Kira and Marceline guided him to the underground basement.

"You can leave us now. I want to see my grandfather alone." Marceline requested the two men.

"I already made the preparation. I already requested my cousin, Enrique to give me his blood sample as well as my Uncle Ronan's blood sample. We will do a DNA test," she added, informing Kira and Raizel.

"If our DNA will not match then you are right. I'm not a member of the Zhou Family."

Raizel was satisfied to hear that. Marceline was right. This was the easiest method to find out the truth. But they still needed to investigate how she ended up in the care of the Zhou Family.

Why was a white werewolf raised in the Zhou Family?

Raizel held Kira's shoulder, motioning him to leave her alone. But Kira wanted to stay with her and see Grandpa Roland's condition.

"I will stay here. Your grandpa might attack you once he wakes up."

"No, Kira. Just leave… I want to be alone," Marceline said firmly.

Kira and Raizel had no choice but to respect Marceline's decision. They left, allowing Marceline to be with her grandfather alone.

Marceline slowly opened the coffin. She gasped upon seeing her grandpa's appearance. Bloodstain could be seen on his clothes, even the corner of his lips. He looked pale as compared to before.

Marceline couldn't help but shed some tears. Her heart ached for her grandfather. She kneeled in front of his coffin and held his hand.

"Grandpa, I'm so thankful for everything you've done for me. You loved me as if I were your real granddaughter. But… I just found out the truth… about my true nature. I'm not your granddaughter…"

"I'm so sorry… for surviving that night. I should be the one who was killed, not your son and his wife… I owe you so much and my parents… They raised me so well with so much love despite the fact I'm not their biological daughter…"

Marceline had no plan of protecting herself if ever Grandpa Roland would suddenly attack her. Her life was not enough to pay them.

After a while, Grandpa Roland who was sleeping in the coffin suddenly opened his eyes. He was finally awakened.

Grandpa Roland immediately smelled sweet blood. Before he could recognize the owner of that blood, his hungry instinct kicked in. He raised both his hands, grabbing Marceline by her shoulders. Then he pulled her towards him, his fangs getting ready to bite her neck!
