Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge

Chapter 133 A Warning

After their intense physical activity inside her office, Kira and Marceline fixed themselves. Marceline couldn't look straight in Kira's eyes. She suddenly felt embarrassed, realizing she was not supposed to do this kind of thing in her office.

'When it comes to Kira, I often forget how to behave appropriately. Why am I becoming so wild and… gosh!' Marceline smacked her face using both hands.

Kira chuckled after seeing Marceline's blushing face. Her cheeks became more flushed when she met his charming gaze. Kira was undeniably handsome, making her swoon.

Contrary to Marceline's reaction, Kira couldn't stop himself from smiling. Whenever he was with Marceline and got physical with her, he would forget about Marceline being a werewolf.

He could still tolerate that thought since he was thinking that Marceline was a human turned into a werewolf. She's not at fault for becoming one but it's Cedric's fault. In fact, he felt sorry for her.

Kira hugged Marceline from behind which surprised her. He pulled her, making her sit on his lap.

"Ki… let go? I need to go back to work." Marceline pretended to complain but deep inside she liked the way Kira was cuddling her after the two of them made love.

"Stop working. Are you not curious about what happened a while ago? Just as we expected, your Uncle immediately went to Triple W Headquarters to seek Cedric Morgan's presence." Kira informed Marceline.

Marceline's mood turned ugly at the mention of her Uncle.

"We need to find the evidence soon. I can't bear to see him, enjoying the privilege of being the CEO of this company and the only son left of my grandfather. I have to put him in his proper place."

Kira nuzzled his nose at her neck, smelling her scent. He caressed her waist and said, "Don't worry, my Lady. I already know what to do. You should cooperate with me. I will tell you how you will be able to get the evidence."

Marceline hastily turned around to face Kira when she heard his last remarks. She was so eager to know what he was planning.

"What's in your mind? Tell me your plan!" Marceline hooked her hand around his neck, while the other one was tugging his tie. She was looking at him expectantly with her mesmerizing emerald eyes.

Kira couldn't take his eyes off her. He just wanted to watch her, imprinting her beautiful face in his mind. He raised his hand, caressing her face before responding to her queries.

"The Ametiz Protection Stone is the key. Your uncle swapped the real ones with fake stones. We have to find those stones in his possession. Let your grandfather see that he has his brother's Ametiz Stone." Kira shared his plan with her.

"But what if my Uncle already got rid of those stones so that there would be no evidence that could implicate him with my parents' death?" Marceline sounded a little bit dispirited.

As much as possible, she wanted to show her grandfather concrete proof that her Uncle had something to do with her parents' death.

"Don't think negatively. We will find ways. Just trust me. Okay?" Kira lifted her chin, allowing her to look into his eyes.

Marceline wanted to trust him with all her heart so, without a second thought, she bobbed her head as a response. "Aside from Aunt Bri, you are the only person I can trust… Please don't let me down… Ki."

Kira smiled tenderly, giving her a peck into her lips. Then he said from the bottom of his heart, "I won't let you down. I will use all my power and influence to help you get the justice you are seeking for your parents."

"Thank you, Kira."

"You don't have to thank me, my Lady. This is part of our agreement. But of course, even if there is no agreement, I am still willing to help you."

Marceline felt so touched. This was the first time she chose to rely on someone. Kira was like an angel sent to her by heaven.

"We are not going home tonight. We are going to Zhou's villa. We will stay there to accomplish our mission of finding the evidence. I will tell grandpa that we will stay over tonight." Marceline immediately stood up, getting off Kira's lap.

Kira groaned inwardly when she left in a hurry. He still wanted to hug her but she already sprinted to the door.

Bam!

Kira could only sigh helplessly while looking at the door where Marceline disappeared to. He had already foreseen that tonight would not be a peaceful night in the Zhou Residence as they were about to reveal the great conspiracy that happened eighteen years ago.

Meanwhile, in Ronan's office, he kept on pacing back and forth while holding his phone. He had been waiting for Vladimir's call as he promised to update him once he relayed his concern to Cedrick.

However, until now, he didn't get any communication from their end. It seemed like they were intentionally ignoring him. He was in his desperate time right now. He was about to lose the Zhou Empire! He needed to think of a better plan to chase Marceline out of the company.

Feeling annoyed and impatient, Ronan threw his phone. The screen of his mobile phone broke in an instant upon hitting the concrete wall near his office door.

"Cedric Morgan! What the hell is happening to you?! He keeps on ignoring me! F*ck!" Ronan said through his gritted teeth. He couldn't understand why Cedric was avoiding him for these past few days.

In the end, he called his wife, Evelyn. She was the only one with whom he could vent his frustration and open up his feelings.

"Honey, how are you? Is everything okay?" Evelyn's voice was heard as soon as the call got connected. When she saw Ronan's caller ID, she could sense that something was wrong. It was seldom for him to call her during working hours unless he encountered a problem.

"Not good! My father just resigned today, passing the Chairmanship position to my niece, Marceline! I had a bad day! A very bad day! Cedric Morgan and his adviser, Vladimir, are avoiding me!" He complained to his wife.

Evelyn fell silent for a moment. Now, she understood why her husband suddenly called her. She was currently in the spa when she received his call. She just finished receiving a whole-body massage.

She quickly got up, putting her clothes on as she continued listening to her husband's rants. Ronan told her everything that happened during the emergency meeting as well as his visit to the Triple W Headquarters.

"I'm dropping by your office. Wait for me," Evelyn said, picking her bag. She gave the money to the masseuse before leaving the spa.

Ronan hung up the phone when Evelyn told him that she was coming. While she was inside her car, she dialed Vladimir's phone number. It rang several times before it was answered.

Evelyn felt relieved when Vladimir picked up her call. She thought her master would also avoid her. It seemed like he was only ignoring Ronan. She wondered why they were doing this.

"Master! What happened? Why are you avoiding my husband? I think he needs your help!" Evelyn confronted Vladimir right away. She was not the kind of woman who would beat around the bush.

"Eve, something came up so we had no choice but to stay away from the Zhou Family." Vladimir was also frank enough to answer her directly.

"Please explain, Master. Enlighten me. Why are you doing this?" she probed.

Vladimir heaved a deep sigh. Evelyn had heard it from the other line. She could tell that this was a very serious matter. This was the first time her master sounded very problematic. She became more curious about this.

"Master?"

Vladimir could only tell her a warning. They already made a deal with Kira. The White Claw Pack's reputation was on the line. It would be humiliating for their clan once they broke any of Kira's demands.

"All I can say is… be wary of Marceline Zhou. I think she already knew what happened to her parents eighteen years ago. Aside from her, you should also watch her bodyguard's movement. He is no ordinary guy. He is smart and capable." Vladimir warned Evelyn.

Evelyn's perfectly-shaped eyebrows were drawn together in a deep frown when she heard all of this.

'Marceline already knew what happened? But how? Who told her? Aside from her, my master is warning me about Marceline's bodyguard… the one whom she married… Are they both plotting something?' Evelyn pondered to herself.

"Master, thank you for this warning. I will be more careful and cautious."

"Okay, Eve. Just make sure not to tell your husband that we are intentionally avoiding him. I know you can handle him well." There was a hint of pride as he praised her.

"Got it, Master. I know what to do. I'm on the way now to meet my husband." After saying that, she ended the call. Then she asked her driver to speed up.

Fifteen minutes later, Evelyn arrived at Zhou Empire. She headed straight to her husband's office.

Upon entering the room, she was surprised to see that an important visitor dropped by to see Ronan. The person was the personal messenger of the Werewolf King, Dominique Silvano.

She stayed quiet as she listened to their conversation.

"Our King and our Queen are going to visit the Human World next week. You will have to prepare as they will pass through the Northern Gate Portal this time.

Ronan: "..."

Evelyn: "..."
