Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge-Chapter 274 So Many Questions Left Unanswered

Serena hadn't recovered yet from the shock when Kira said another word. "Since we are already here, let me ask you something. Why? Why did you do that, letting me think that you betrayed me? Was it you who helped me live?" f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

Kira grabbed Serena's waist, holding her in place. Her body stiffened at their close contact. She couldn't look straight into his eyes. She had conflicting thoughts in mind.

'I'm not the one who helped him. Should I lie to him and pretend that it was me?' Serena thought to herself. She was wary of Kira. She didn't know what he would do to her once he found out the truth.

Seeing that she was hesitating to say something, Kira didn't stop urging her. "This is your last chance to explain everything to me. Next time… I might no longer listen to you. So tell me everything now, Selene…"

Serena raised her head at the mention of that name. There was grief and longing in her eyes and Kira saw them.

'Did she regret it? Does she feel guilty about what happened a thousand years ago?' Kira kept wondering about that. Would he be able to get closure in the past once Serena answered all his questions?

"No one is allowed to call that name… in front of me… I'm Serena," she said meaningfully, lowering her head, her tears threatening to fall from the corners of her eyes.

Kira clenched his teeth. He couldn't understand why she didn't want him to call her by that name. Was it because she didn't want to be reminded of their past?

"Alright. Just tell me… Answer me now, Sel– I mean Serena."

"Did you ever love me?" Kira confronted her once again. He already asked her of so many questions but he didn't receive a single answer from her. Now, he asked her this question because deep down in his heart, this was something he was dying to know from her.

Serena's tears began to fall from the corners of her eyes. She was contemplating whether to answer him or not. What was the point of letting him know? It would just bring demise for both of them.

"I did love you," she mumbled in a low voice, not looking into his eyes. She was afraid that he would find out the truth once she looked at him.

But Kira noticed her strange behavior. Something was off with her. He couldn't feel the spark anymore. He felt like the person in front of her was not Selene… the one he loved for the first time.

Was she the one who changed or it was him? He could no longer feel the attraction he had for her. But whenever he would think about Selene, his heart was still beating so fast.

'Why does it feel so different now that I am facing her now?' Kira asked himself in puzzlement.

"You are not her, are you?" Kira questioned her, letting go of her waist. He slightly pushed her away from his body.

Serena felt alarmed when Kira said that. Did he notice something?

"You should leave now! While Dominique is not yet around," Serena was sending him away, avoiding the topic.

"It was all in the past now. Let's forget about it. You shouldn't be here! And stop looking for Marceline. It was you who failed to protect her from your kind." Serena began blaming Kira.

At the mention of Marceline's name, Kira was reminded of the main reason why he came there. He was there to see Marceline, not Serena.

"You should be the one to stay away from her. Have you forgotten? Cedric and your fellow werewolves were the ones who killed Marceline's parents so that you could have control over the northern portal gate!"

Serena was not able to refute that. They were still arguing when another person entered the room. It was Beatrice.

Beatrice was surprised when she saw Kira. She couldn't be wrong. This was their Vampire King!

'Kira Alaric? Our Lord…. He is alive?' Beatrice stood frozen at the entrance door.

Kira and Beatrice met each other's gaze. Then Serena immediately moved, shielding Beatrice away from Kira. She was afraid that Kira would do something to her daughter.

But little did she know, Kira was aware that Beatrice was a vampire. He knew her. She was the one who was pretending to be Stella, the missing werewolf princess.

"Where is Marceline?" This time Kira asked Beatrice.

Kira's cold voice awakened her from her deep stupor.

"She went out with my brother, Dylan. They said… they were going to meet Marceline's husband." Beatrice told Kira the truth. She wouldn't dare lie to their Vampire King.

She still couldn't believe that Kira was alive. She already made a mental note to tell the vampires about this revelation!

"What?! They both left? And you knew. Why didn't you tell me and your father? Your father forbade Marceline to go out as her life is in danger! Vampires are chasing after her!" Serena had the urge to scold her 'daughter'. She was also concerned about Marceline's safety.

"You don't have to worry about her safety. I will protect her as her Husband!" Kira put emphasis on his last word.

Without wasting any more time, Kira turned to leave. He had no reason to stay there. Marceline was no longer there. He could tell that Marceline was going home to meet him.

Beatrice and Serena could only watch Kira's back until he disappeared from their eyes. Both ladies fell silent, not uttering a single word. They were still shocked that Kira dropped by at their house.

On the other hand, Kira felt uneasy. He noticed something strange after encountering Serena. Lots of questions were still left unanswered.

'Who is she? She said she did love me, but I couldn't feel her sincerity when she said those words. Am I wrong all along? Perhaps… Selene just used me to get together with Dominique? Her real mate?'

Kira's heart clenched with those thoughts in mind. He was also confused about his feelings. 'Damn! What's wrong with me?'
