Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge

Kira didn't care any more if Dylan would find out his true nature. He poured his frustration with that punch, causing the wall to collapse. He couldn't accept the revelation he got today.

Marceline was the missing werewolf princess... the daughter of Dominique and Serena. Why would fate bring them together like this?

'Is fate playing a joke with me?' Kira didn't know how he would face this truth. Everything between Marceline and him became more complicated.

"You are a vampire," Dylan mumbled, eyeing Kira with a shocked expression.

"Yes. I am." Kira didn't deny it. He pushed Dylan to the side and walked away.

"Wait!" Dylan followed him. "Where are you going? Will you not chase after my sister?"

Kira halted on his steps. It took him several seconds before he answered Dylan's question. "I need to give her time and space. She ran away because she needed it."

But deep inside, Kira was also thinking that they both needed time and space. He couldn't figure out what he would do next. Maybe Dylan and Marceline didn't wrong him. But their parents... were the problem.

Their clans were also in a war right now. He couldn't put aside his clan's welfare just because of his personal feelings. He was the Vampire King. It would be unfair to his clan if his decision would be influenced again by his relationship with Marceline... a werewolf... or rather, the werewolf princess.

Kira just took a deep breath before walking away. He had to see Raizel. He was the only person whom he could talk to about this. His only friend.

"Stop following me!" Kira scowled at Dylan who continued following him.

"Let me warn you, Ki. Marceline is my sister. Please don't hurt her feelings. She has nothing to do with this war. She's been living here as a human." Dylan didn't want Kira and Marceline to break up just because of this revelation.

But Kira got annoyed when Dylan kept on bringing it up. "Marceline and I... don't misunderstand our relationship. We are only together because of our deal. I promised to help her get her revenge against the werewolf clan. But now that she finds her real family, I don't think she will want to destroy the werewolf clan."

Dylan was stupefied upon hearing that. 'Does it mean Kira and Marceline are just in a contractual relationship? No feelings attached?'

"I think... I truly misunderstood you. I thought you loved my sister... but it turned out... you are only doing this for revenge. I am disappointed," Dylan was now upset by Kira's behavior.

"Go away, mutt! The next time I see you, I will not go easy on you. We are enemies and that will never change." Kira warned Dylan. The heavy tension between them was rising by the minute.

"Don't regret it. I will not let you get near my sister ever again." Dylan said through his gritted teeth. He turned around to leave Kira.

Kira just watched Dylan's back with complicated emotions on his face. He just picked a fight with the werewolf prince. He just said those words on impulse. He didn't mean it.

He was also having a hard time because of Marceline. But they had to face the truth. They could never be together.

Kira continued walking until he reached the gate of Zhou Ancestral Mansion. He watched the mansion for one last time. He didn't know if he could still come back here after this.

His heart clenched... and for the first time, after one thousand years ago... he felt the same pain in his heart. A single tear fell from the corner of his eyes. He was hesitating to take another step. Once he did, he felt like he would never see Marceline again. They would never be the same again.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaah!"

Kira screamed, balling his fists tightly. He was sad, heartbroken, and at the same time, he was furious.

"Why? Why are you making me suffer like this?" Kira's heart was filled with bitterness. And without looking back, Kira left the Zhou Ancestral Mansion.

Meanwhile, Marceline continued walking without a certain destination in mind. Before she knew it, she just found herself standing in front of the grave of her parents (Mr. and Mrs. Zhou).

Marceline kneeled in front of their grave as she cried, pouring her heart out. She wanted to thank them for taking care of her and treating her like their real daughter. She wondered if her parents already knew about her real identity ever since the beginning.

Then Marceline recalled those moments when her parents didn't let her touch objects made of silver. They also hid the Ametiz Protection stone to keep her safe. They didn't allow her to touch it as they already knew the negative effect on her.

"Mom... Dad... you both knew all along... but how did I end up in your care?" Marceline asked them as if they were there, listening to her.

"What happened to your real daughter? How will I know the answer?"

At this moment, she missed Aunt Brianna. What if she knew something? She had been serving the Zhou Family even before she was born.

"Aunt Bri..." Marceline wiped her tears. She stood up and decided to find the answer.

"I have to know what happened in the past."

Marceline didn't waste any more time as she went to Aunt Brianna's house. She would try to find a clue. Aunt Brianna must have left a clue.

Marceline kept on searching the whole house until she got tired. She didn't see anything. She felt so helpless and desperate. All she could do was cry. And she ended up falling asleep because of emotional exhaustion.

*****

Nighttime...

Marceline was still lying on Aunt Brianna's bed when a light appeared from the attic. Shortly, footsteps were heard, approaching the bed.

A beautiful woman in a white dress appeared, her long curly silver hair cascading down her waist. She reached out, caressing Marceline's face. Her eyes were looking at her, filled with love and care.

"It's been a long time since the last time I saw you. You are having a hard time again," a soft mellow voice of the woman resounded in the room.
