Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge

~ Kingdom Phantasia: Vampire Clan's Hideout ~

After retreating and leaving the palace, the vampires together with the members of the White Claw Pack assembled at their temporary hideout.

They concealed their scents so that werewolves couldn't track them. There were several witches and wizards helping the group.

It was a successful mission. Both parties got what they wanted– Cedric and Serena. Serena was unconscious and she was tied in the cave. Silver chains were used to bind her arms and feet.

Cedric, on the other hand, was being treated. His healing ability slowed down because of the serum used by the guards who tortured him.

Raizel and Victoria were inside the cave, watching over the unconscious Werewolf Queen.

"This is so funny. This woman was deceived easily. She still has feelings for Kira," Victoria uttered, walking closer to Serena.

"Do you think Dominique will take the bait? He is a selfish jerk. Will he sacrifice himself just to save this woman?" Raizel asked Victoria, his eyes scanning Serena from top to bottom. The poison was still in Serena's system.

Victoria poisoned her when she followed the fake Kira. The poison made Serena weak. It was also preventing her from shifting into her wolf form.

"I already sent a message. Serena will die after 36 hours. Dominique has to move quickly if he doesn't want his Queen to die." Victoria touched Serena's face, pinching her jaw using her left hand.

"If Dominique will not come… then I will lure Marceline here. She will certainly save her mother. Her mother who covets her man." Victoria was confident that their plan would work out.

Raizel fell silent. He was contemplating whether he would mention the Moon Goddess to Victoria. Marceline tried her best to convince him, but Raizel was still hesitating.

A peace treaty between the Vampire Clan and the Werewolf Clan won't be easy to achieve.

"By the way, do you have news about Kira? We can't afford Kira to help the werewolves in rescuing their Queen!" Victoria had no idea that Kira was sealed by Raizel.

"You don't have to worry about Kira. I already made sure that he won't be able to interfere with our plan." Raizel reassured her.

Victoria looked a little bit disappointed. She hadn't seen Kira for a while now. She mobilized a team to follow and monitor Kira's movement. But he suddenly disappeared without a trace.

"Do you want to see him?" Raizel asked out of the blue. He could somehow read Victoria's expression. Sometimes, it was so hard to figure out what she truly felt toward Kira.

"Of course not!" Victoria blatantly denied it.

Raizel just smiled at her meaningfully. Victoria looked mad at Kira but there are times, her desire to see him was resurfacing in her eyes.

'If the Werewolf Queen still has feelings for Kira, how about Victoria? Why do I feel like she hasn't moved on yet.'

"Why are you giving me that kind of look?" Victoria scowled at Raizel.

Raizel just shrugged his shoulders. He knew that Victoria would only deny everything.

"Let's discuss something else. What are we going to do to those werewolves? Shall we kill them now?" Victoria was referring to Vladimir and the White Claw Pack.

"Don't kill them. We still need them. They are familiar with the in and out of the palace."

"I don't think we still need them. We can't infiltrate the palace now. After what transpired today, the werewolves will heighten their security. They are already building a barrier." Victoria reasoned out.

"But Vladimir and Cedric are interesting fellows. I want to use them against the werewolves," She added, still thinking about what she would do to them.

"Alright. We won't touch them yet. They have to help us kill Dominique first. Their forces are still helpful." Raizel made his decision.

"I have to go and check on them. We still have wounded comrades that need to be treated." Raizel said goodbye to Victoria, leaving the cave.

Victoria stayed in the cave and continued watching Serena. There was a hint of bitterness in her eyes as she looked at her. She couldn't wait to kill her– snap her neck, pull out her heart and crush it in her palm.

"This woman betrayed our King. She stole Kira from me. With that… she deserves to die… in my hand." Victoria mumbled, giving the unconscious Serena a deathly glare.

Victoria raised her hand, growing her sharp nails. And with one swing, Victoria scratched Serena's face. She started to bleed.

Victoria smiled triumphantly, bringing her fingers inside her mouth, licking the blood.

Victoria slammed her eyes shut and savored the sweet taste of Serena's blood. 'The Victory is ours! The downfall of the werewolf clan is near.'

*****

Meanwhile, at the same hideout, the members of the white claw pack gathered in one place. Vladimir was treating Cedric. His wounds were slowly healing.

"Alpha, how do you feel?" Vladimir asked Cedric.

Cedric hissed at him. "You came late. Those bastards whipped me a thousand times. How dare they do this to me? I will get my revenge. I will kill Dylan! And I will make Stella mine."

Cedric's resentment towards the twins intensified. The two siblings were the reasons why Dominique punished him. He would kill Dylan while he planned on making Marceline his sex slave.

"Don't worry Alpha Cedric, we will oust the Silvano Clan from the kingdom. The Vampires will help us get our revenge. They plan on assassinating the Werewolf King and reclaiming the throne." Vladimir tried to coax his angry Alpha.

"What happened to the palace? Did they fail to kill Dominique? Are they weak? Is the Vampire King with them?" Cedric bombarded Vladimir with a series of questions.

"No. I haven't seen Kira. They failed to kill Dominique but they kidnapped Serena, the Werewolf Queen. She is now being held captive in that cave. I think they will use her to lure and trap Dominique." Vladimir answered his Alpha.

"By the way, the vampires are stronger than before. We can rely on them in eliminating Dominique," He added.

Cedric's eyes sparkled with delight. "Hmm. I'm glad you formed an alliance with them. Good job, Vladimir. I know I can always count on you."
