[ At Kingdom Phantasia… ]
Marceline was acting strangely. She was avoiding her mother, Serena. Dominique and Dn noticed that something was off between the mother and daughter duo.
Dominique urged his son, Dn, to talk to Marceline and find out what was bothering her. As per the request of his father, Dn immediately brought Marceline to the garden.
Lyca and Little Lowell joined them but they chose to roam around the garden while picking up flowers.
"Sis, is everything alright? Why do I feel like you are troubled by something? Did you and mother fight?" Dn asked her softly, patting her back.
Marceline took a deep breath. She could no longer hide it. At least, Dn was here to listen to her.
"I don''t know how I will interact with our mother after knowing her real feelings for Kira. Do you know that our mother and our father had a connection with Kira… in the past. Father betrayed Kira and Mother helped him to survive…"
"... because she loved him…"
Dn was taken aback for a moment when he heard that.
"Sister… I thought you and Kira had already reconciled. Why are you worrying about this? Mother and Father looked happy with each other. And Kira loves you."
Marceline nodded her head. "I know. But our mother and father don''t want me to be with Kira. How can I convince them? I just hope they will forgive each other and reconcile as well." Marceline had this wishful thinking. If only peace could be easily acquired by just forgiving each other''s enemy.
Dn just let out a soft chuckle. He wanted to cheer her up. He didn''t want her to overthink andplicate things.
"Hmm. Your marriage is the key. A werewolf princess marrying a vampire king! This might bring peace to both ns! It''s also advantageous if you will bear a child– a child of a werewolf and a vampire!"
Marceline could only smile at his suggestion. "Yes. But Kira has to gain the trust of the Vampire n. Currently, the vampire n has a different leader. They are treating Victoria and Raizel as their Vampire Queen and King."
"Sigh! My brother-inw has to work hard to reim his power as the Vampire King. When is he going here?" Dn looked at his fingers, counting the days from the moment theyst saw Kira.
"He said… he woulde once the vampires acknowledge him as their King." Marceline sighed deeply. She missed Kira already. Dn could see in her eyes the longing.
"Okay. Let''s change the topic. I don''t want you to get sad while talking about Kira. Have you heard the announcement this morning?"
"What announcement?" Marceline asked him innocently. She wasn''t paying attention to the Pce''s announcement. Her mind was preupied with Kira. She felt uneasy as if something bad happened to Kira. She even had a dream about him… calling for help.
"Two days from now… Our Father will do the public execution of Cedric, ''The traitor''," Dn said, informing Marceline.<novelsnext></novelsnext>
"Huh?! But why?" Marceline didn''t know if she felt d or not. Killing their fellow werewolf was wrong… but part of her was telling her that Cedric deserved it. He even tried to kill her Twin Brother, Dn. Fortunately, Kira was there to save him.
"Father can see Cedric as a threat. He wants to eliminate him as soon as possible. The Werewolf King is not as merciful as you think." Dn shrugged his shoulders. He was also undecided about this.
But Marceline could only bob her head. She knew it. Dominique, the Werewolf King, was not merciful. He was tyrannical and ruthless. He even used his own mate to lure and deceive Kira.
"Let me try talking to him…" Marceline volunteered. She was worried that Cedric''s death would cause hatred from the other werewolves, especially the White w Pack. How could she promote peace among the werewolf n and vampire n if she couldn''t even unite all the werewolves?
"Okay, Sis! I will support your decision, no matter what!" Dn wrapped his arms around her shoulders. He was truly d that he met his twin sister.
"By the way, I met your friend… the White Witch. Do you want to visit her today? Let''s bring Lyca and Lowell!" Marceline mentioned the witch whom she met thest few nights.
"Oh! I forgot. I''m d you reminded me, sis. I need to visit her. I will thank her personally for the help she extended to me for my journey. How did you meet her?" Dn was looking at Marceline with anticipation. The White Witch was residing in the dark forest, very far from the pce. Howe Marceline was able to meet her?
"It''s a long story! Let''s go now and meet her. I also want to ask for her help. Who knows she can help Little Lowell to speak again just like how he used to."
Marceline just wanted to breathe some air, far away from the pce. She could still feel the awkwardness in Serena''s presence so she wanted to hang out with Lyca, Dn, and Lowell today just to avoid her mother.
"Lyca, Lowell! Do you wannae with us?" Marceline approached the two who were enjoying the flower-picking.
"Yey. We areing. I love exploring this world. I have never seen beautiful ces like the forests and flower fields in this kingdom!" Lyca had dreamy eyes as she said those words. She felt like she was just on vacation.
Marceline and Dn could only smile at her reaction. It did not take long before Dn and Marceline shifted to their wolf forms. Lyca rode Dn while Lowell was secured by Marceline. The four of them traversed through the faraway forest to meet the White Witch.
After half an hour, they finally reached her house. They should have arrived earlier but Lyca took photos and stopped over in the forest.
The White Witch sensed their presence so she immediately stepped out of her house to wee and greet her visitors. Riemc''s eyes sparkled in delight as soon as she saw familiar faces.
"The Werewolf Prince and Princess are here along with theirpanion. I''m d to see you all today." The White Witch weed them with open arms.
It did not take long before her attention was caught by the young hybrid boy. Riemc was surprised to see that boy and suddenly a vision shed in her eyes.
''This kid… what is he doing here?''
