Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge

Chapter 95 "Big Boss, Help!"

[ Five Days Later… ]

At Lyca's Clinic, Marceline propped her head underneath her chin while staring at her doctor friend suspiciously with a raised eyebrow.

Marceline dropped by to see Lyca, making sure that she would attend the party tomorrow. Who knows her doctor friend might change her mind at the last minute and decide not to appear at the party?

"Hey, what's wrong? Don't tell me you are having a second thought? Are you not going to attend my grandpa's birthday party?" Marceline asked Lyca, who was spacing out in her seat.

Lyca, who was biting her ballpen with her absentminded expression, snapped out of her trance after hearing Marceline's voice.

"Huh? What did you say?" Lyca didn't hear Marceline clearly as her mind was wandering off somewhere just moments ago.

Marceline rolled her eyes skyward before taking a deep sigh. "Are you still with me, Dr. Lyca Lee? Or am I only talking to the air?"

She snickered slightly before clearing her throat. "I'm sorry about that, Ms. Marceline Celeste Zhou. I'm just a little bit distracted because of someone."

Her cheeks burned almost instantly in a pinkish hue as Dylan's handsome features popped up in her mind.

Marceline could no longer bear to see the silly expression of her friend so she reached out to pinch her cheeks while saying, "Get a grip of yourself, Dr. Lee! Why are you blushing? Don't tell me you are imagining some lewd things again?"

Cough! Cough!

Lyca choked on her saliva after hearing Marceline's last remarks. Well, if thinking about a gorgeous man and the intimate moment she shared with him could be considered lewd things then somehow Marceline got it right.

"Celeste! I… I hooked up with a stranger last week!" Lyca could no longer keep her secret. She was dying to tell Marceline about what happened.

Marceline: "..."

"Remember when I invited you to go clubbing but you said you were not available?"

Marceline just nodded her head, not saying a word. That was the time she stayed at home the whole day together with Kira. She didn't want to leave thinking Kira was not yet feeling well.

"Things just happened so fast. I don't know what had gotten into me but I suddenly became bold and wild." Lyca spoke spontaneously.

"You are always bold and wild when you are not wearing your doctor's uniform," Marceline retorted, sneering at her friend.

"We made out inside my sports car!" She declared exasperatedly.

Marceline's jaw dropped upon hearing that. She didn't expect that Lyca would do that inside her car. Then suddenly Marceline thought about Kira.

'Ahem. Kira and I also made out in a storage room and my office… so it was not a big deal if Lyca did it inside her sports car. Who am I to judge?' she thought to herself.

Marceline leaned over as she asked Lyca in a low voice "Ahem, are you sure it's just making out? You didn't have sex with him?" There was a teasing look in her eyes when she gazed at her friend.

Lyca crumpled her face as she recalled what happened between them after their passionate moment. Her expression darkened as she pursed her lips, feeling disappointed.

"That Dylan guy! He suddenly ran away and disappeared! I wanna beat him once I see him again." Lyca lamented to her.

"He ran away?! But why?" Marceline couldn't believe that the guy just ran away after making out with Lyca. "He is a jerk! If I were you, I will not only beat him but I will torture him and skin him alive!"

Lyca nodded her head, pouting her lips while putting on a pitiful look on her face.

"He said he would come back! But he never did!"

Little did they know, Dylan had a reason for leaving Lyca right after their first intimate moment. He had a hard time controlling his wolf as Lanlan wanted to take over his body.

Dylan almost transformed into his wolf form in front of Lyca. He tried to prevent that from happening. Lyca would be scared to death if he suddenly transformed into his wolf form.

At that time, Dylan forgot to bring the magic pill given to him by the White Witch. The pill was useful to control and seal his wolf if ever Lanlan would shift and take over without his consent.

Lanlan became so wild after the intimate session he had with Lyca. He wanted to claim her right there but Dylan didn't want to do that without telling Lyca about their mate bond first.

So in the end, Dylan left Lyca to control his wolf. But she misunderstood him since five days had gone by but Dylan never showed himself to her. Besides, he didn't even get her contact number and address, how would he find her? But Dylan promised he would find her and come back to her.

"Just forget about that jerk. Fortunately, you didn't do a one-night stand with him. If you want to replace Enrique, choose a responsible guy who will cherish and protect you no matter what happens." Marceline was thinking of Kira when she said those words.

Lyca, on the other hand, looked at Marceline with a raised eyebrow. "Hmm, why do I feel like you are referring to yourself, not me? Did you find that man already? OMG?! Don't tell me you are talking about your bodyguard, Kira?!!"

Marceline scowled at her doctor friend. "Of course not! I'm talking about you, not me!"

Lyca just shrugged her shoulders, not believing Marceline completely. "Anyway… you are right. I should stop thinking about that stranger. The more I think about him the more I want to beat him. And of course, I should forget about Enrique as well."

"Thank God! You are finally back to your usual self." Marceline patted Lyca's shoulder.

"By the way, how's the preparation for your grandfather's birthday party?" Lyca changed the topic.

"My Aunt and Uncle are the ones preparing everything. Of course, they want to curry favor with my grandpa so they will do their best to impress and satisfy him during his birthday party," Marceline said nonchalantly as she didn't mind them at all.

Since they were still her relatives and part of the Zhou Family, Marceline was not doing anything for now although his Uncle was trying to scheme against her by proposing an arranged marriage with the Silvano Clan.

She was so focused on unfolding the truth about her parents' death with the help of Kira. She had no time to deal with her Uncle's scheme. It was not worth her time.

"Why are you not involved in the preparation? You also need to socialize with other prominent people to strengthen your network. This will help you in taking over the Zhou Empire. Who knows, the board members will change their mind and choose your Uncle and cousins to be the heir or heiress of the Zhou Empire, instead of you?"

Her red lips twitched into a sly smirk and said, "Why? Are they capable enough to beat me?"

"Hmm, you have the skills and capability. But what will happen if they have more connections than you? Who do you think will win? Haven't you thought about that?" Lyca asked her hypothetically.

Marceline just smiled with full confidence. "Who said that I don't have connections? What made you think that they have more connections than me? Hmm, I may not socialize with everyone, but I know how to deal with a person, making him or her to be on my side."

Lyca burst out laughing as she remembered something. "Oh right! I almost forgot! You are the cunning witch! You can use some sly tricks to make them submit to you and obey you. I wonder what kind of threat or blackmailing strategy you are using against them. Haha!"

"You know me well, my dear friend." Marceline praised her.

The two ladies just erupted into a peal of laughter. They were still laughing when Marceline's phone rang. Someone was calling her.

She frowned the moment she saw the caller ID. It was Xyon aka Mr. X.

"Hmm, why is he calling me at this time?" She murmured. She motioned to Lyca that she would just answer the call. Her doctor friend just nodded her head as a response.

"Big Boss! Help me!" Xyon's panicking voice was heard as soon as the call got connected.

With a puzzled look in her eyes, Marceline asked Xyon what was happening on his end. "What's the problem?"

"Big Boss, save me! Your bodyguard! He is going to kill me! Please come and Ahhhhh!" Xyon was not able to finish his sentence as he began to scream in fear.

Marceline didn't know what was happening. Kira killing Xyon?!! Why would he do that?

Standing up in a rush, Marceline said goodbye to Lyca before dashing out of her clinic. She immediately dialed Kira's number. But he was not answering.

"Damn! What happened between the two?" She cursed inwardly, feeling a little bit anxious. What if Kira would truly hurt Xyon?

She immediately called Aunt Brianna. Kira and Aunt Brianna were together when she left the company. So how come Kira was now trying to kill Xyon? What did he do to offend Kira?

The phone rang several times before Aunt Brianna was able to answer the phone

"Aunt Bri, where are you? Is Kira with you?" She asked her with urgency in her voice.

"I saw him talking to Xyon a while ago. They went to the rooftop. Why?"

"Aunt Bri, please help Xyon for a while! He said Kira is trying to kill him. I'm on the way back to the company now."

"Eh? Kira killing Xyon? But why?!!"
