Marceline ran as fast as she could to reach Dn''s spot. But Beatrice was the first one to arrive as she used her vampiric speed. She also heard Dn''s loud growl from the distance.
Dn was currently on a rampage. He kept attacking the two vampires who took away his mate. He already lost his mind. His beastly instinct was the one directing his actions.
He thought something bad happened to Lyca. The other vampire came back and Lyca was not with him. Those unwanted thoughts pushed Dn to sumb to his inner beast.
He wanted to kill them, punish them and tear their bodies apart. He wanted to bite them until his sharp teeth would be buried deep into their flesh.
One vampire whose name was Julius, had already broken his legs. Dn bit him a while ago. Fortunately, hisrade just arrived in time for his rescue.
Now, the two vampires were cornered by him. Dn pounced on them when Beatrice called him out to stop him.
"Brother, Stop!!! Don''t kill them!" Beatrice felt rmed when Dn charged towards the two vampires with an intent to kill. They were herrades so she must protect them.
She was the one who put them in this predicament. She started to regret her actions. She shouldn''t have kidnapped Lyca.
Though Beatrice already called Dn, the werewolf just ignored her. He continued biting the vampire who was pinned under him. The vampire screamed in pain as the werewolf''s bite started to sting.
The vampire begged at Beatrice through their eye contact. He was asking for help. They thought Dn would listen to her as his twin sister. They overestimated Beatrice''s influence on Dn.
Beatrice already tried to pull Dn away from those vampires but he shoved her, pushing her using his head.
BAM!
Beatrice was thrown several meters away from them. Her presence was not able to calm her ''rampaging brother''. Instead, Dn became more annoyed when Beatrice intervened.
The vampire who witnessed that scene lost his remaining hope. He felt like his end wasing. Their Lady Beatrice even failed to stop Dn.
''Am I going to die like this?'' The vampire already closed his eyes in submission. He was epting his fate tonight.
However, before Dn could bury his sharp teeth on the vampire''s neck, amanding voice was heard at the back.
"Dn! Stop at once!" Marceline had finally spoken, walking towards Dn.
Dn automatically stopped when he heard that familiar voice. He turned around to look at Marceline. His cold sharp eyes suddenly became gentle upon seeing Marceline''s face.
Marceline''s aura was overbearing as she maintained eye to eye contact with Dn. She continued tracing her steps towards him, not breaking their connection.
For some unknown reason, Dn couldn''t defy Marceline''s words as if he was born to listen to her. She told him to stop and so he did!<sub> </sub>
"Move back, Dn…" Marceline ordered him once again.
To their surprise, the rampaging werewolf suddenly became obedient to Marceline, following her words. He stepped back, releasing the vampire who was trapped under him! The two vampires and Beatrice couldn''t believe it.
''How can she do this? A mere gatekeeper can stop the werewolf prince with just her words?'' Beatrice was still in shock. Even She, who was pretending to be Dn''s twin sister, failed to stop him. But in Marceline''s presence, Dn went into submissionpletely.
''Is this the real power of the gatekeeper?'' Beatrice pondered to herself.
Dn seemed to be afraid of her… afraid of making Marceline mad!
When Marceline reached his spot, she petted his head immediately. This gesture made the angry Dn calm down. He whined as if he was telling Marceline that his mate was taken away from him, that''s why he got so mad.
For some unknown reason, Marceline could understand Dn. This might be the work of their werewolf bond. Ste could hear Dn''s wolf voice in her subconscious. She was feeding the information to Marceline''s mind.
"Lyca is safe. You don''t have to worry," Marceline softly mumbled. She could feel Dn''s rage. She appreciated how much Dn cared about her best friend. She witnessed how important Lyca was for Dn.
Meanwhile, Dn could finally breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that Lyca was safe. He wanted to go and see her right away. He even kneeled in front of Marceline, motioning her to ride at his back. Dn hadpletely forgotten about the two vampires and Beatrice.
''He wants you to bring him to Lyca,'' Ste informed Marceline.
Marceline nodded her head before climbing to the back of Dn''s wolf form. She made sure to hold him tight as Dn ran in the direction where she left Lyca.
Though disappointed that Dn had forgotten about her presence, Beatrice felt relieved that herrades didn''t die. She simply motioned them to leave the forest as soon as possible.
Then she moved her gaze back to Dn and Marceline until they vanished from her line of sight. She couldn''t understand the thing she had just witnessed. A mere gatekeeper keeping a rampaging werewolf prince in control?! How could that be possible? Was it because she''s a friend of Dn''s mate?
Beatrice couldn''t find a proper exnation for this. And one more thing was troubling her. Marceline said that she hated werewolves. But the way she talked to Dn, she didn''t see any hatred at all.
''Did she just lie to me about hating the werewolves? Or Dn is the only exception?'' Beatrice took a deep sigh, still couldn''t figure out what was the rtionship of the three.
In the end, Beatrice had decided to follow them. She just hoped Dn wouldn''t find out that she was the one who ordered those vampires to take Lyca.
Beatrice was a little bit anxious now. Things got moreplicated. She was certain that Dn would investigate further and would stop at nothing until he found out the real motive of those vampires for taking his mate. He would search for the culprit!
''I should gain his trust as his twin sister… This is the only way… he will not suspect me.''
