''I will reject you as my mate…''


    When Kira heard that, he suddenly stopped moving. Marceline was here in Ste''s form. He nced back, meeting her amber eyes. She was slowly approaching him.


    Kira was conflicted for a moment, darting his gaze back and forth between Dominique and Ste. His heart clenched tightly as Ste was now siding with the werewolves.


    Dominique was her father… so it was natural that she would try to protect him.


    "Kill him already, Kira!" Victoria yelled at him, urging him when she noticed the hesitation in Kira''s eyes just because of the white wolf.


    Victoria was about to attack Ste when Kira immediately raised his hand,manding her to stop. He let go of Dominique''s neck. In a sh, he moved in front of Victoria, shielding Ste.


    He also nced at Raizel, giving him a warning look as if telling him ''Don''t you dare touch her.''


    "You are doing it again, Kira! You will be the cause of the vampire''s demise!" Victoria yelled at him, gnashing her teeth. "You are the disgrace of our n!"


    Without saying a word, Kira dragged Victoria out of the house. Raizel and Beatrice followed them. It seemed that Kira changed his mind about killing Dominique.


    This was because of Ste''s warning. She told him that she would reject him as her mate. Deep inside, he got scared of being rejected by her. Though he didn''t believe in mate bond, he didn''t want to sever any bond he had with Ste and Marceline.


    His heart constricted and his body froze as if he just heard the scariest punishment Ste would give him.


    In the end, he took away the vampires from the mansion. He didn''t want the fight to break in that mansion. Dn had been severely injured. He already knew that both Ste and Marceline would get mad at him.


    He let this happen and he failed to stop Raizel and Victoria from attacking her twin brother. Marceline might me him for this.


    A few hours ago, he was supposed to meet Raizel but after reaching the Scarlet Heart Inc, he found out that Raizel and Victoria left together.


    When the vampires left, Ste approached Dn who was lying unconscious on the floor. Ste howled as soon as she saw Dn''s condition. He was bleeding and his bones were broken.


    Ste licked his wounds, trying to heal him using her saliva. A cold glint shed through her amber eyes. She was furious. Her kind and sweet twin brother ended up in this sorry state.


    ''Brother… Brother…'' Ste was calling him through their mind link.


    Dn was not responding to her. She got worried since Dn remained unconscious. She continued licking his face, including his wounds. After a few seconds, the healing ability worked. His wounds were slowly disappearing.


    When she was done treating Dn, Ste and Marceline transformed back to their human form. Marceline grabbed the nket to cover Dn''s body. Then she went to the wardrobe to pick some clothes.


    She was very silent as she watched her real family in that unconscious state. If she didn''te, Kira and others would have killed Dominique.


    Fortunately, she decided toe back and faced the truth that she was the werewolf princess. After talking to the Moon Goddess, Ste was consoled and felt better.


    The Moon Goddess gave her an important mission to reunite all the creatures. No one should die. She would do the right thing for both the werewolf n and the vampire n.


    She knew it would be difficult. She would try to encourage both ns to have a peace treaty again. But to do that, she had to build a strong rtionship with vampires.


    Since Kira was the Vampire King, Marceline must preserve the rtionship they had. She appreciated it that Kira listened to her and he didn''t harm her parents.


    But she couldn''t stop getting mad as Dn suffered from their hands. Marceline transferred Dn to the room next door. She just let him sleep and she watched over him. She held his hand as she stayed by his side, waiting for him to wake up.


    A few minutester, Dominique and Serena regained consciousness. They were disoriented, not knowing what happened to them. The poison was still in their system but they could already move.


    "Where is Ste?" Serena asked Dominique in her worried tone. Were they attacked by someone? They could tell that something was wrong with their bodies.


    Dominique shook his head. He was rubbing the space in between his brows as he could feel a throbbing headache. It did not take long before they could feel someone else''s presence inside the mansion.


    "Marceline and Dn are here," Dominique mumbled as he could smell their scents nearby.


    The husband and wife got off the bed and proceeded to the next room. They were surprised when they saw Dn lying unconscious on the bed while Marceline was looking after him.


    Serena dashed inside, running towards the bed. The worries and concerns for Dn were reflected in her eyes.


    "What happened to my son?" Serena asked Marceline.


    Dominique also moved closer, a chilly glint shing through his eyes. "Is this the work of vampires?" Dominique could easily tell that the vampires had something to do with this.


    "Where is Ste? Did they take Ste with them?" Serena panicked as she didn''t see Beatrice around.


    Marceline stared at them for a moment, before answering their questions.


    "Yes, Vampires were here… and Ste went with them… because she''s a vampire, not a werewolf."


    Dominique and Serene were dumbfounded when they heard that. The Ste, whom they thought was their missing daughter, was a vampire?!


    "She is an impostor," Marceline added, assessing their reactions.


    The anger surged up in Dominique''s heart. He didn''t expect that they would be easily fooled by vampires. They thought they already found their missing daughter but they were mistaken.


    Dominique wanted to vent his anger by killing some vampires tonight. He was about to leave the room when Marceline grabbed his elbow.


    "Father, stay… I''m here. The real Ste."
