Dylan blinked several times, wondering if he heard it right. 'She doesn't hate me… does she?'
Dylan finally understood Marceline's words when he saw the faint curve of her lips. She was smiling. Yes! She didn't hate him and she meant those words.
Dylan couldn't stop himself from smiling broadly. He grabbed her hands and pulled her into a hug. He was carried away by his joy, forgetting that his hands and body were covered with blood. However, Marceline didn't mind it at all.
"Thank you, sis…" Dylan was feeling grateful.
Marceline could only sigh helplessly. Dylan was being so cheesy and dramatic though he was a guy. But she liked him that way. She found him cute and charming in his own way.
"Now tell me… what kind of help do you want from me?" She asked him curiously. "After this, we also have to discuss what happened to Lyca," she added.
Dylan nodded his head, a raging fury reflecting from his eyes as he remembered those vampires who took Lyca.
"The truth is… my request has something to do with Lyca. You… Being her friend, I would like to ask for your support. Can you help me confess to her my real identity?"
Marceline was taken aback when those words passed through her ears.
'What? Why does he have to do it? Isn't it better for him to keep it a secret than to confess? Lyca will be in danger once she learns about the existence of different creatures.' Marceline had a concerned look in her eyes.

"As you know… a werewolf like me has a destined half whom we called Mate. And recently I just found my Mate… that someone is none other than… Lyca, your friend."
Marceline's eyes widened in surprise. Now she understood it. Stella also mentioned things about Mate and Mate's bond.
"However… Lyca doesn't know about it. Sadly, she even loved someone else… Your cousin, Enrique." Dylan continued talking, telling Marceline about his true feelings towards Lyca.
"I can't give up. Aside from my twin sister… My mate is the missing piece of my life. I love Lyca and our mate bond made my feelings and attraction for her stronger. I want to win her heart and confess my real identity, but I am afraid that Lyca will hate me or be afraid of me. I'm afraid that she will only think of me as a monster… a beast…"
"I can't stand it if Lyca will reject me as her mate." Dylan clutched his chest. Just thinking about those possibilities made his heart clench.
For some unknown reason, Marceline could relate to Dylan. And the first person that came into her mind was Kira. She was also afraid of being rejected by Kira. Stella shared the same fear with her.
"I only have one month left… after this… I have to go back to our kingdom," Dylan informed Marceline. "I have to win her heart and make her fall in love with me… by that time."
As Dylan continued sharing his thoughts and feelings with Marceline, someone was hiding in the dark, just listening to their conversation. It was Beatrice who was currently pretending to be his twin sister, Stella.
She rejoiced after hearing that Lyca loved someone else. Beatrice wanted to win Dylan's heart. She had been serving him as his vampire slave for a long time. Dylan was the only werewolf who treated her well as if she was not a vampire, a werewolf's mortal enemy.
Dylan was so kind to her that she fell in love with him. That was the start she wished that vampires could go back to Kingdom Phantasia as a creature in power, not a slave for werewolves! She wanted Dylan for herself.
She somehow felt relieved that Lyca didn't feel the same way as Dylan. This gave Beatrice a chance to steal Dylan.

But unknown to her, pretending to be his twin sister was a great mistake. Dylan would not look at her as a woman, but his sister. Furthermore, once the truth came out, Dylan would be upset, unhappy, and disappointed with her, knowing that Beatrice chose to deceive him and his parents. She even used his beloved twin sister's name to get what she wanted.
"I can't say yes… because you will just put Lyca's life in danger. You are aware that vampires and werewolves are in a war. Once she gets involved with you, your enemies will target her. See what happened tonight. She was attacked and taken by vampires. Don't you think it was related to you?"
Dylan had to admit that he might be the reason for this attack. However, he was puzzled about who would do this. Vampires didn't know that the werewolf prince was also here in the human world. Only his family knew about it.
At first, he suspected his father because Dominique was against his human mate. But the culprits were vampires so there was no way the Werewolf King would connive with vampires just to get his mate.
"I can assure you. Vampires do not know that I'm a werewolf. I am in disguise so that no one could recognize me. I should have asked those vampires to know the truth. It's my fault for losing control. I let my rage win over me." Dylan explained to her.
"If so… then do you know someone whose name is Beatrice? I heard… that a lady vampire was the one who ordered them to take Lyca." Marceline finally told Dylan about what she learned after tailing the vampires.
"Lady Beatrice? I don't know someone…" Dylan didn't think about Beatrice who was also a vampire. He thought Beatrice was still in the Kingdom Phantasia.
Marceline was about to say something more when suddenly Beatrice came out of her hiding spot. She interrupted the two of them, afraid that Marceline might say something that would put her in a difficult situation.
She knew Dylan well. He's smart. He could easily connect the dots once he gathered enough information.
"Bro… I got so worried about you!" Beatrice said, hugging Dylan.
Marceline frowned upon seeing Beatrice. She really looked suspicious to her. 'Why do I feel like she is hiding something from us?'
