Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge-Chapter 287 Her New Beginning

Marceline finally revealed to Xyon and Lyca her real identity. She was slowly unfolding the truth before Lyca as she didn't want her to suffer from great shock.

She wondered how Lyca would react once she found out that her best friend was a werewolf. Xyon had no idea either. He only knew that Kira was a vampire but Marceline's true nature was still hidden from him.

"Lyca… you have to know something." Marceline held her hands and turned to Xyon. She needed Xyon's help to support her in revealing the existence of supernatural creatures to Lyca.

"Do you still have the copy of footage… taken from Triple W Headquarters?"

"Yes, Boss! I saved it on my phone." Xyon promptly responded, fishing out his phone inside his pocket before handing it over to Marceline.

Lyca just watched them in confusion, darting her gaze back and forth between Xyon and Marceline. "What's going on here?"

"Lyca… humans are not the only creatures in our world… Creatures like vampires and werewolves really exist. Come… you have to see this." Marceline showed her the video where humans transformed into their werewolf forms. This was recorded when Kira and Marceline rescued the vampire prisoners inside the Triple W Headquarters.

"O.M.G! What the fuck?! Is this true?" Lyca gasped when she saw giant werewolves running around the Triple W Headquarters.

She thought she would only see something like this in a movie. But no! This was happening. Those creatures were real! 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m

"Lyca… the place where we are going is the kingdom of those supernatural creatures called Kingdom Phantasia. Now that you know the truth, are you still willing to come with me? That place might be dangerous to ordinary humans… like you."

"Huh? What are you saying? Aren't you an ordinary human too?" Lyca asked her best friend inquisitively.

Little Lowell and Xyon also glanced in her direction, their eyes focused on her. After a while, Marceline shook her head. "I'm not human… I'm a werewolf."

Lyca's jaw dropped and her eyes widened in disbelief when she heard those words from her. "No? You are just kidding, right? Don't joke around like this, Celeste. I'm serious."

But Marceline didn't smile nor laugh. She was staring at her best friend with a serious expression on her face. Even Xyon almost fell when the realization struck him.

His Lady Boss was a werewolf?! Oh M G! That was so cool. He wanted to see her wolf form.

"Lady Boss? Are you telling the truth? Can you show us your wolf form?" He asked her with his dreamy eyes while putting his hands together as he requested her.

"Not now. But I will show you next time. I promise." Marceline said, smiling faintly at Xyon. She was not in the mood to shift in her werewolf form. She would just be reminded of Kira and his hatred toward werewolves.

"Okay, Lady Boss! I will look forward to that!" Xyon responded enthusiastically. He had now something he would look forward to once Marceline returned.

"By the way, Boss! How about Kira?! Will you bring him with you? Does he know about your real identity?"

"Oh right! I almost forgot about your husband. Where is he?" Lyca also spoke up, searching for Kira.

Marceline's expression darkened and her face contorted at the mention of Kira's name. Just a simple name could bring so much pain in her heart. She felt like her fragile heart was being torn into tiny pieces just thinking about Kira.

Marceline tried her best not to cry in front of Xyon and Lyca. She was holding back her tears as she didn't want them to see her in this broken state.

She loved Kira wholeheartedly. She was being honest with him about her feelings. She confessed her feelings for him bravely. But in the end, Kira just took her for granted. She never heard the words "I love you" from him.

He never confided his true feelings for her so she didn't know their real score. Was she only a source of food for him? Was she only a sex partner for him? Nothing more?

"Hey, Celeste, are you okay? You are spacing out. Are you thinking about Kira? Where is he?" Lyca softly asked her friend before giving back the phone to Xyon. She had seen enough. She believed Marceline and Xyon.

"Stop mentioning Kira. We are no longer related to each other. He is not my husband. Our marriage is just contractual." Something was pinching her heart when she said those words. It still hurts a lot!

"Oh right. Vampires and werewolves are rivals." Xyon whispered to Lyca. "They can't be together."

Lyca glared at Xyon, signaling him to keep his mouth shut, otherwise she would punch him. 'Can't he read the situation? Why did he have to spell it out in front of us?'

Meeting Lyca's deathly glare, Xyon automatically closed his mouth.

"Let's leave now. My parents must be looking for me now. I will introduce you to my family." Marceline told Lyca. Then she turned to Xyon with a grateful look in her eyes. "Xy, please take care of my grandpa…"

"Yes, Lady Boss! You can count on me!"

Marceline just bobbed her head before reaching out for Little Lowell's hand. She would finally leave this mansion. Her heart was filled with sadness and longing. She had a lot of good memories here together with her adoptive parents, her grandpa, and most especially… with Kira.

'Time to say goodbye… and move forward for the future.' Marceline mumbled, roaming her eyes around the house for one last time.

She didn't bring anything. She was afraid that once she looked back and took something that would remind her of the past, Marceline might not be able to leave this mansion. This was her home for the past two decades. It was so hard to say goodbye and leave everything behind. But she had to… for the greater cause!

After a while, Marceline, Lyca, Little Lowell, and Xyon left the mansion together with Grandpa Roland. Xyon brought the casket with him wherein Grandpa Roland was being locked. 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐oｍ

'Kira… if we ever cross again… I wish… my heart will be strong enough to face you…' Marceline finally took a step, walking further away from the mansion. This would be the start of her new beginning…. Her journey as the werewolf princess… returning to her homeland.
