Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge - Chapter 182

“I will not let go…” Dylan said with emphasis.

Lyca was surprised by Dylan’s sudden change in behavior. She was used to seeing his sweet side. However today, he looked frightening as he was fuming with rage.

“What’s wrong with you?” Lyca yanked her hand away from Dylan. She complained but deep inside she was anxious meeting Dylan’s scrutinizing gaze.

She was like seeing another side of Dylan. He was being forceful right now. What he did was so rude towards her and Enrique. She was still comforting Enrique when Dylan dragged her away from him.

“You…” Dylan coldly said, pinning her on the wall. They were now in the emergency exit of the fourth floor.

Lyca wanted to struggle but Dylan was gripping her body tightly. She was trapped in between the wall and Dylan’s body.

“Stay away from me, Dylan!” Lyca tried to push him away but he was so strong that he didn’t even move an inch.

Dylan still had a dark expression on his face. His breathing was ragged and his heartbeat was erratic. He was trying to control Lanlan who wanted to transform and take over his body.

If Dylan turned into a werewolf, he would probably attack Enrique and rip him apart because of too much jealousy. A werewolf like Dylan was very possessive of his mate. He hated to see her getting close with another man.

Dylan was also hurt since he found out that Lyca lied to him. She sent him away just for her to meet Enrique.

He already recognized Enrique. He also saw him last time and bumped into him when he met Marceline. He learned that Enrique was related to Marceline.

“Who is that guy, Lyca? Answer me truthfully,” Dylan said firmly, interrogating her.

“I will not release you unless you will answer my questions honestly,” he added, his eyes fixed on her nervous face.

“Why are you acting like this? You don’t have the right to question me. There is nothing wrong with comforting a friend! Furthermore, why are you acting like my boyfriend? I’m not yours.” Lyca spat back at him, not backing down.

Dylan’s ego and feelings were hurt once more when she said that. Though she told him she was just comforting a friend, Dylan got affected negatively when she said that he didn’t have the right to question her and she didn’t belong to Dylan.

He loosened his grip on her body. Then he lowered his gaze, a sullen expression appearing on his charming face.

‘Her words are like arrows shooting my heart right now.’ Dylan ground his teeth as he finally let go of Lyca.

He could no longer stay there as his heart was slowly breaking to pieces because of Lyca’s hurtful words. It seemed that Lyca didn’t feel the same way.

‘Is she in love with that guy?’ Dylan pondered to himself

“I’m sorry…” Dylan just apologized to Lyca before turning around to leave. He didn’t take a glance at her. He just continued walking, leaving Lyca in that staircase.

Lyca felt guilty and sorry when Dylan left her after apologizing. Part of her wanted to stop and chase after him but she was afraid that Dylan was still angry.

She just watched him until he vanished from her sight. Lyca didn’t know what to feel. In her mind, she didn’t do something wrong. But her heart was anxious because of the conflict between them.

“What did I do wrong?” Lyca murmured to herself before going back to Enrique. She hadn’t said goodbye to him.

She just entered from the exit door when she bumped into Enrique.

“Hey, are you alright? Who is that guy? Why did he drag you like that? Did he hurt you?” Enrique asked Lyca, assessing her from top to bottom.

Lyca felt touched seeing the concern in Enrique’s eyes. She missed this kind of interaction between them.

“No, I’m just fine. He is just my friend.” Lyca promptly responded. She didn’t want him to misunderstand her relationship with Dylan.

When Enrique made sure that she was just fine. He invited her out. He also needed a change of environment. He had been staying in the hospital for days now.

When Enrique and Lyca came out of the hospital, Dylan was still in the entrance. He immediately hid in the corner while watching the two.

Dylan clenched his fists as he could see the bright smile on Lyca’s face while looking at Enrique. He just confirmed it through her actions and gestures that Lyca had romantic feelings for Enrique.

Dylan’s wolf was about to come out and take over his body. His mind was being clouded by jealousy. He wanted to hurt Enrique right now. He felt like he was going to lose his mate because of Enrique.

Dylan was on the verge of losing control and shifting into his wolf form when someone called his name.

“Dylan?” A female voice was heard, followed by a light tap on his shoulder.

When he heard that familiar voice, Dylan turned around only to see Marceline standing beside him. Her eyes were red and puffy, a sign that she cried.

His rage was replaced by worry towards Marceline. Because of that, his control over his body came back, not allowing Lanlan to come out and shift.

“Marceline? What happened to you?” Dylan asked her, raising his hand to touch her face.

For some unknown reason, Marceline didn’t feel distant from him. She allowed him to caress her face.

After calming herself in the Zhou Ancestral Mansion, Marceline decided to check on Grandpa Roland. She brought Little Lowel with her as no one would watch over him in the mansion. Kira went back to take care of Aunt Brianna’s wake, together with Xyon.

“A person close to my heart just passed away…” Marceline voluntarily opened up to Dylan.

Dylan had forgotten about his anger towards Enrique as his attention was diverted to Marceline.

“I’m sorry to hear that,” Dylan softly mumbled. Unable to resist, he moved closer to Marceline and gave her a hug to comfort her. “It’s okay to be sad… but you have to be strong.”

The two were still hugging when someone tugged Dylan’s shirt. When he looked down, he saw a cute boy wearing a hoodie jacket. The boy was smiling at him.

That was the time Dylan released Marceline from his embrace. He was puzzled as to who this boy was. Even Marceline got surprised seeing how Little Lowell was smiling at Dylan. It only showed that he liked Dylan.

Compared to Kira, Little Lowell seemed to be friendly towards Dylan. If this was Kira, the two would argue again through a staring contest.

“Who is this cute boy?” Dylan asked Marceline curiously. He darted his gaze back and forth between Marceline and Little Lowell. “Is he your younger brother?” he added.

The boy shook his head and answered Dylan with one word, “Mama!” Through this, he was telling Dylan that Marceline was his mother.

Dylan’s eyes widened in disbelief. He didn’t expect that Marceline already had a son. He glanced at her with a questioning look, trying to ask for her confirmation.

Marceline just gave him a faint smile. She stroked Little Lowell’s head while looking at him with a gentle expression.

In Marceline’s mind, Little Lowell was the only werewolf she didn’t hate. She liked him. But little did she know, there was another werewolf in front of her that she didn’t hate either– Dylan!

“Yes, he is my son,” Marceline claimed as she already decided to take care of the boy and raise him like her own.

Dylan could only bob his head, pinching the boy’s cheek. “He is so cute. What is your name, Little one?”

The boy didn’t answer him. He just glanced at Marceline as if asking her to tell Dylan his name.

“He is Lowell. He can’t speak some words because of the traumatic experience he encountered.” Marceline explained to him about Little Lowell’s special condition.

“By the way, why are you here? Are you with Lyca?” Marceline asked Dylan, clueless about the conflict between the two.

Meanwhile, Dylan’s expression became somber at the mention of Lyca’s name. He felt like he wanted to vent it all out and tell Marceline about his concern.

On the other hand, Marceline already noticed that there was something going on between the two based on Dylan’s reaction.

“Don’t tell me the two of you had an argument?” Marceline asked inquisitively. Little Lowell was just listening to them.

“I like her… your best friend,” Dylan admitted to Marceline honestly as he confided his feelings to her.

Marceline looked at him with amusement. She didn’t expect him to be so frank and vocal about his feelings towards Lyca. Marceline couldn’t stop herself from smiling.

‘Hmm, Lyca is lucky. Dylan is a great catch!’ Marceline thought to herself. ‘And I think he is a good guy.’

“So why are you having this kind of expression?” she asked him with a puzzled look in her emerald eyes.

“I think she likes someone else and she doesn’t like me…” Dylan said in a low voice, feeling dejected.

Little Lowell squeezed his hand that he was holding to show his support.

Meanwhile, Marceline just let out a soft chuckle.

“Because you feel that she doesn’t like you, does it mean you are giving up now? If you do, then you don’t deserve to be with her,” Marceline said to him meaningfully.

“If you truly like her, you should do your best to pursue her. Show her your sincere intention.”

Dylan just blinked his eyes several times, staring at Marceline with amusement. He was speechless.. But Marceline had a point.
