Chapter 285 For His Revenge?
Chapter 285 For His Revenge?
[ At Scarlet Heart Inc Headquarters…]
Kira, Raizel, and Victoria gathered in one room. They were all silent. They sat on the different corners of that room. Raizel was stealing glances at Kira from time to time. He was waiting for him to speak up.
Victoria, on the other hand, couldn't hide the anger and displeasure on her face. She still couldn't accept that they failed tonight. And this happened because of Kira's interference. They almost won by killing Dominique and Serena. But Kira helped the werewolves instead because of Marceline.
"Why did you do that?" Raizel broke the silence, questioning Kira. "You should have killed
Victoria turned to Kira, waiting for his response. She also wanted to hear his explanation, otherwise, she would not be able to pacify her angry self.
"I can't do it… in front of Marceline," Kira said to them truthfully.
Victoria's eyes were set ablaze with raging fury. She was so tired and sick of seeing Kira fall into another werewolf. Couldn't he just like a vampire… their own kind?
"Just leave Kira! You don't deserve to be here! You are not our King anymore! You will just become our downfall!" Victoria yelled at him, sending him away.
At this moment, Raizel didn't say a word to defend his best friend. He was also upset by what he did. He let go of the opportunity to kill Dominique. Now, they were back to zero! Their plan just went in vain.
Kira clenched his fists. If he leaves now, he doesn't know where to go. He couldn't come back to Zhou Ancestral Mansion. Marceline was no longer there. He wondered if she would still come back to that mansion.
"Fine, I'll go," Kira mumbled before turning around to leave.
He would try to look for Serafino. He would stay with him for the meantime. As Kira left the Scarlet Heart Inc, his mind had been wandering off somewhere. He wondered how Marceline was doing.
He was thinking that probably, Dominique and Serena already knew that Marceline was their missing daughter, the werewolf princess.
Kira had to see her, otherwise, he would go crazy just thinking about her. He was not yet ready to let her go. He didn't want to see her getting closer to Dominique and Serena. His heart was breaking into tiny pieces. He was in pain once more.
After gathering his thoughts, he came up with a plan. Tomorrow… Kira would try to approach and see Marceline. He would also apologize for what happened to her twin brother.
"Dominique stole Selene from me. Now… I will take his daughter away from him…" Kira mumbled through his gritted teeth.

Meanwhile, in Silvano's Villa, Dylan finally regained his consciousness. He saw Marceline sitting on the sofa next to his bed. She was the one who watched over him the whole night.
"Sister, you are back," Dylan mumbled with a hoarse voice. He tried to sit up, leaning his back on the headrest of the bed. He still felt weak.
Marceline immediately stood up from her chair and approached the bed. Upon reaching his spot, she pulled Dylan into a hug. She embraced him tightly and her eyes began to water. She was crying in Dylan's chest.
"Sis? What's wrong? Don't cry. I'm fine now. Thank you. You saved us all…" Dylan rubbed her back gently.
"I know…" Marceline sniffled. Then she gazed up, cupping Dylan's face. "I'm sorry… I came late. I failed to protect you. You suffered… a lot."
Dylan shook his head, watching her helplessly. "Don't apologize. It's not your fault." Dylan wiped her tears using the back of his palm. Then he caressed her cheeks, consoling her.
"I… missed Kira. I want to see him and talk to him…" Marceline mumbled, sharing her feelings with her twin brother.
She felt like there was a giant wall preventing her from getting closer to Kira. Her heart was so heavy. She felt suffocated. Dominique and Serena would forbid her from seeing Kira. And tomorrow evening, they were going back to Kingdom Phantasia.
"You love him so much, don't you?" Dylan asked her. He was conflicted about this. He wasn't sure what Kira was thinking nor what his real feelings toward his sister were.
He was afraid that Kira would hurt her. He could tell that Kira was hesitant to accept Marceline's real identity and nature. But seeing Marceline in this sorry state, Dylan couldn't endure it.
"If you want to see him then go find him. No one is stopping you. You don't need our father's and mother's permission to do what you want. Don't worry, sis. I will always support you with your decision. I'm just here. I will cover up for you." Dylan reassured her.
Marceline glanced at him with a grateful look in her eyes. She would follow her brother's advice.
"Thanks, Dylan… I have to leave now and find Kira. I have to talk to him before we go back to the Kingdom Phantasia."
After saying goodbye to her brother, Marceline sneaked out of Silvano's Villa. She would search for Kira.
She had been roaming around the Golden City for two hours now when she finally caught Kira's scent nearby. Without further ado, Marceline entered the abandoned building. There she saw Kira and Serafino talking to each other.
She was about to approach them when Kira spoke up, sharing his plan with Serafino.
"No. I will not be deceived twice, Serafino. I already learned my lesson in the past. This time I will be smart. I will not let anyone fool me. I will help the vampires to reclaim the throne for our clan's sake." Kira declared to Serafino.
"But my Lord, what will you do against the Silvano Family? They are still powerful." Serafino asked him expectantly.
"I will do the same with them… My Revenge. I need Marceline to do that," Kira said.
Marceline felt like her heart was torn apart the moment she heard those words from Kira. 'Is he planning to use me to get his revenge against my parents?'
Instead of walking in Kira's direction, Marceline turned around to leave. She knew now… Kira just wanted her for revenge.
