Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge

[ Zhou Ancestral Mansion… ]

Kira and Marceline had a long day today. He chose to talk to Marceline when they arrived home. He wanted to ask for a Day Off since he was planning to save the other vampire prisoners.

He didn't get a chance to tell her a while ago since he became busy teasing his Lady Boss. He just heard some part of the conversation between Lyca and Marceline.

But thinking Marceline would get mad at him, he didn't continue eavesdropping. He just left the clinic and surveyed the other areas around.

Now that they were back home, Kira remembered the important task he had to do. Triple W only gave the vampires 72 hours to surrender the one responsible for the attack. And now, 66 hours are left before the deadline. He had to make a move soon.

He just waited for Marceline to change her clothes and go downstairs before sharing and discussing his plan with her.

When Marceline came downstairs, she saw Kira standing in the center of the living room with a serious expression on his face. It looked like he was in a deep thought.

She approached him. Upon reaching his spot, Marceline tapped his shoulder to catch his attention.

"Boss Lin," Kira turned to his side when he felt her hand tapping his shoulder.

"It seems like your mind is wandering off somewhere. Was the caller a while ago the one who has something to do with this? Who is that caller?" Marceline asked Kira directly.

She was dying to know the identity of that person. Was it a woman? What if that person was Kira's vampire lover?

Ever since Lyca mentioned it to her, Marceline couldn't help but think about Kira's status.

Was he single or married? Was he in love with someone? After waking up from his one thousand years of deep sleep, would he look for her? These were some of the questions Marceline wanted to ask Kira.

Thinking about it, she didn't know anything more about Kira aside from being a vampire who slept for a thousand years while he already knew more things about her.

She told him about her mysterious illness and tragic past so Marceline was now thinking that maybe it was the time for Kira to tell her more about himself.

"The person who called me this afternoon is my fellow vampire."

Marceline was all ears on him with her heart beating so fast, feeling a little bit tense. She was bracing herself, thinking that the vampire was Kira's lover. She was already analyzing and assessing herself how she would react to Kira.

"His name is Serafino. I saved him from the witches and werewolves who were hunting him in the Northleaf Timberland Forest before."

Marceline felt relieved when she found out that the caller was a male vampire.

"What happened? Why did he call you?" Marceline walked over, sitting down on the vacant single couch that was facing Kira. He also sat down on the opposite chair before answering her queries.

"I heard a piece of bad news from him. The Triple W is planning to kill our fellow vampires if I don't surrender to them. I had an encounter with the werewolves last night on the riverbank near the Northleaf forest. I fought and attacked four members of Triple W."

"What?! You had a fight with them last night? Why didn't you tell me? Was it because of me? Did it happen when you looked for me? Are you okay? Are you hurt somewhere?" Marceline bombarded him with so many questions.

Her concern for him was visible in her emerald eyes. Her voice sounded so worried. She even stood up and sat down next to Kira, checking his body.

Kira was at a loss for words. He never expected that Marceline would react like this. He could feel the worries and concerns she had for him.

He didn't speak for a moment. He just watched her as her hands roamed around his body while her eyes were inspecting him, searching for a wound or any injury.

Kira's heart jumped with joy knowing that Marceline was concerned about his well-being. He smiled inwardly, enjoying the moment as her hands began touching his muscles.

Marceline stopped when she noticed the silly smile on Kira's face. She arched her eyebrow and asked him in annoyance. "Why are you smiling? Is there something funny? I am here worrying about you. But here you are, still smiling. I asked you if you were hurt. Tell me."

Kira couldn't help it. He just felt so happy that's why he was smiling like a fool again.

'Why does it feel so good when she is worrying about me… knowing that she genuinely cares for me?'

With this thought in mind, Kira subconsciously pulled Marceline into a hug, embracing her tightly in his arms.

"Put your heart and mind at ease, my Lady. This bodyguard of yours was not hurt at all. I've beaten them into pulps, that's why they are searching for me." Kira reassured her while squeezing her in his arms.

Marceline could only bite her lower lip while her head was pressed into his sturdy chest. She didn't expect that Kira would suddenly hug her. But she really liked it. She loved sinking further into his body while being engulfed by his strong arms.

Kira hadn't released her yet. He just continued talking, telling Marceline his request.

"Boss Lin, I am planning to rescue my fellow vampires so here I am asking your permission to grant me a Day Off for two days starting tomorrow. I need to plan and strategize on how I will get them out of Triple W's headquarters. They are currently being imprisoned there."

"But it's dangerous! Triple W has tight security. You will enter the den of wolves and witches. What if they catch you while you are saving your fellow vampires?" Marceline said anxiously, gazing up to look at Kira.

Kira was about to speak when the two of them suddenly heard someone clearing her throat. When they looked at the back, Aunt Brianna was there, watching them with a teasing smile on her face.

"Aunt Bri!?"

Marceline immediately pushed Kira away, realizing they were still hugging each other.
