Chapter 243 Strangers



"What the hell–"

Marceline almost punched the guy who suddenly grabbed her hand. Fortunately, she was able to stop her fist the moment she recognized the person in front of her.

"Dylan?" Marceline\'s eyes narrowed as she gazed at him. She didn\'t like the way Dylan approached her. He surprised her.

"What are you doing here?" she asked, lowering her fist.

Dylan smiled at her with an apologetic look on his face. He could tell that Marceline got annoyed by him. She was glaring at him as if she was ready to scold him.

"I\'m sorry. Please don\'t be mad at me. I didn\'t mean to surprise you. I just need to talk to you in secret." Dylan apologized while scratching his face.

Dylan wondered as to why Lyca postponed their dinner date so he decided to follow her secretly. He was paranoid, thinking she would meet Enrique again behind his back.

But Dylan felt relieved when he saw Marceline, instead of Enrique. He even heard the conversation between Lyca and Marceline. Because of that, he felt guilty of eavesdropping.

Now he learned that Marceline and Kira were having a conflict. Was it just a coincidence that this happened after Kira and Marceline met his parents? Who was Kira\'s ex whom Marceline was referring to?

Listening to their conversation a while ago, Dylan had the urge to comfort her. He couldn\'t bear to see Marceline sad. Fortunately, Lyca was there to cheer her up. Her mood brightened up after talking to Lyca.

\'Sigh, Kira is still a mystery. I wonder if my father is right this time. Is Kira the former Vampire King? Was he resurrected?\' Dylan thought to himself.

"What do you want to talk about?" Marceline\'s voice brought him back to the present.

Conflicted emotions could be seen on Dylan\'s face. Aside from wanting to comfort her, he had another reason for approaching Marceline– LYCA.

His father, Dominique, only gave him one month. That was the deadline of his stay here in the human world. He had to win Lyca\'s heart, reveal his identity to her and if possible, ask her to come with him to Kingdom Phantasia.

Dylan would marry her. She would become a princess. Though she was just an ordinary human, Dylan was so determined to be together with her. She was his mate. And no one could stop him from pursuing Lyca. He would make her fall in love with him.

"Can you meet me later? After your dinner with Lyca. Please don\'t tell her that you saw me here." Dylan requested her with his pleading look.

Marceline fell silent for a moment, contemplating whether to see Dylan or not. Kira already warned her and asked her to stay away from Dylan, Dominique, and Serena. They were werewolves!

But seeing how Dylan was begging her, she couldn\'t refuse him. So in the end, she just nodded her head. She was also curious about what Dylan wanted to tell her.

"Thank you, Sis!" Dylan hugged Marceline as soon as she got her approval. It was just a natural reflex of his body. He didn\'t know why he felt so happy and comfortable while talking to her.

"Alright. Let me go now. I have to use the comfort room," Marceline said awkwardly, pointing her finger at the door of the Ladies\' restroom.

Dylan immediately released her as he apologized once again. The two said goodbye for a moment. Then Dylan went back to his hiding spot where Lyca couldn\'t see him.

When Marceline returned to their table, the food and drinks were already served. Lyca ordered a lot.

"Do you think you can finish all this?" Marceline asked her exasperatedly. She thought Lyca was on a diet. She seemed to be having a stress-eating habit once again.

"You can bring some later. Give it to your husband. Remember… the way to a man\'s heart is through his stomach!"

Marceline\'s cheeks reddened almost instantly as she recalled what happened in her office when she fed Kira with her blood. Indeed, this statement held some truths!

Then her gaze fell on the delicious food at the surface of their table. \'This food will not work on him. He has different food preferences.\' She subconsciously touched and rubbed her neck where Kira often bites her.

"Come, let\'s eat. So that you can go home. You can start your \'Operation\' called Seducing Your Husband!"

Marceline could only shake her head helplessly before joining her. \'Sorry, Lyca… I can\'t tell you that Dylan is here as well. But don\'t worry, I will get to the bottom of this. I will confront him about what his goal is… for approaching you. He is a werewolf. What business does he have with an ordinary human like you?\'

Marceline didn\'t want her best friend to be involved with those creatures. It would be dangerous for her. Since she was meeting Dylan after this, might as well ask him about his real motive towards Lyca.

Two hours had passed and the two ladies got enough to drink. They stopped even before they could get drunk. Marceline had to remain sober as she still needed to talk to Dylan.

"Let me drive you home," Marceline said to Lyca after paying their bills. She knew that Dylan was just around watching them. She assumed that he would just follow her until she dropped Lyca at home.

"Sure! I didn\'t bring my car so I will not refuse your offer. Let\'s go, Celeste!" Lyca pulled her hand excitedly.

"Don\'t forget to apply what we had just discussed here. Your mission!" Lyca added, winking at Marceline.

Marceline just rolled her eyes because of her best friend\'s teasing. Just when they were about to leave the Golden City Pub, Marceline noticed something. Dylan was not the only one watching and observing them.

She saw through the glass door that two men were looking at them. They also stood up when the men saw them leaving.

\'Who are these strangers? Are they here for me… or Lyca?\' Marceline was alerted by their suspicious movement. She immediately pulled Lyca. But she pretended that she didn\'t notice those men.

\'I sense incoming trouble...\'
