Marceline left without confronting Kira. She already heard enough. Kira didn't love her. He just wanted her for revenge. That was also the reason why Kira agreed on helping her before.
The two of them were supposed to get their revenge against the werewolf clan. But now, the situation has changed. She was part of the werewolf clan. She is a werewolf princess. And the only werewolf whom she should blame for the death of her adoptive parents was Cedrick Morgan!
Once she got her revenge, Marceline had to help the Moon Goddess to reunite the creatures– werewolves, vampires, witches, humans, and hybrids! She must stop the war no matter what.
But she didn't know how she would do that. She was now heartbroken because of Kira. She didn't know if Kira had feelings for her or if he was still in love with her mother, Serena.
After driving with no clear destination in mind, Marceline ended up in her best friend's clinic. Lyca was surprised to see Marceline in her gloomy mood.
"Why do you have such a long face?" Lyca asked her, inviting her in.
Marceline walked inside, sitting on the chair in front of Lyca. Lyca stood up and flipped the "Close" sign of her clinic so that no client would disturb them. Her best friend seemed like she needed someone to talk to right now.
Lyca was her twin brother's mate so she couldn't avoid her fate of getting involved with supernatural creatures like vampires and werewolves. She had the right to know the truth about the existence of those creatures.
"Lyca… I'm leaving…" Marceline mumbled. She didn't want to talk about Kira. She was here to ask Lyca if she would like to accompany her to the Kingdom Phantasia.
"Huh? Where are you going?" Lyca asked her in confusion. She had a bad feeling about this.
"In a faraway place. Would you like to come with me?" Marceline was not beating around the bush. She said what was on her mind directly.
"Huh? You are leaving… What will happen to the Zhou Empire?" Lyca couldn't understand why Marceline suddenly made this kind of decision. "How about your grandpa? He is still missing! Enrique and Natasha are still searching for the culprit."
Marceline fell silent. She didn't know where to start. There were lots of things she had to explain to Lyca for her to understand the situation.
Her grandfather had become a vampire. She couldn't bring him to the Kingdom Phantasia. She had to ask Xyon to take care of her grandpa while she was sorting out things.
"Xyon. I will appoint him as the new CEO of the Zhou Empire."
"Eh? Natasha will try to kill you for doing that!" Lyca reacted.
"She can't kill me. I'm stronger than her," Marceline said matter-of-factly.
"Celeste… I don't know what you are trying to do… but because you are my best friend… I can't leave you alone. I'll come with you. But you have to tell me everything. Okay?" Lyca didn't think twice. She would always back her up no matter what she would do. That's how loyal Lyca was to her best friend, Marceline.
"Let's go to the Zhou Ancestral Mansion. Xyon and Little Lowell are already there, waiting for me. I have to inform them about my plan."
Lyca just bobbed her head. She immediately grabbed her bag and keys. Though Marceline was not telling her directly, Lyca could sense that Marceline was having a hard time right now. She needed her friend by her side.
Without wasting any more time, Marceline and Lyca proceeded to the mansion. The mansion was still in a chaotic state, proof that an intense fight happened there.
"Oh my gosh! What happened here?" Lyca gasped in surprise. She was a little bit shaken by the scene in front of her.
Little Lowell ran in Marceline's direction, hugging her. He got worried when he smelled vampire scents around the house. He thought something bad happened to Marceline.
"I will tell you later…" Marceline replied to Lyca before shifting her gaze to Xyon. "Did you bring the documents?"
"Yes, Lady Boss!" Xyon promptly responded, handing the folder over to Marceline. It was the appointment paper that would make Xyon the new CEO of the Zhou Empire.
"Lady Boss, are you sure about this? Are you not afraid that I might steal your wealth? Do you trust me that much?"
"This is just temporary. I will still come back. And of course, I trust you. If you will betray me then I have no choice but to hunt you down once I return." Marceline smiled at him. She knew that Xyon just asked her a hypothetical question. She could feel his loyalty. He won't betray her.
"Yes, Lady Boss! I understand!" Xyon's eyes were sparkling with delight. He felt so happy since Marceline didn't doubt his loyalty.
"Xyon… I will leave my grandfather in your care. You know what to do!" Marceline was referring to feeding her grandfather with blood while keeping him underground.
Xyon had an underground basement in his house. They would transfer Grandpa Roland to his house. They would leave the Zhou Ancestral Mansion empty. Since Little Lowell was a hybrid (half werewolf and half human) Marceline would bring him to the Kingdom Phantasia.
"Got it, Lady Boss. Is it true… that you are leaving the Golden City?" There was a hint of sadness in his voice. He would miss her a lot.
"Yes. I found my real family… I have to be with them."
Lyca and Xyon were both surprised when they heard that. 'Real Family? 'Does it mean Marceline is not a member of the Zhou Family?'
"Hey, what are you saying, Celeste?" Lyca asked her in disbelief.
"The Zhou Family adopted me. The real Marceline Celeste died. I'm Stella… Stella Silvano. That's my real name."
Lyca and Xyon couldn't believe this. If this was true then… Enrique and Natasha would try to get the Zhou Empire from her.
As if she read their minds, Marceline spoke up. "The Zhou Empire is not my priority right now. I can give my shares to Enrique, only if I find him qualified to manage the Zhou Empire. But I will never give it up to Natasha."
