Chapter 54 The Promise Between The Two Men
Dylan was now standing in front of Marceline's bedroom. He reached for the doorknob, wrapping his hand around it.
He was about to turn the steel knob when suddenly a large hand gripped his wrist tightly thus stopping him from opening the door.
When he looked up, he met Kira's cold sharp glare. His aura changed and there was no hint of friendliness on his face at all. His dark expression seemed like giving him a warning that this room was off-limits.
Dylan blinked several times, just staring at Kira with a puzzled look in his eyes. He didn't know what made this man so mad and upset with him.
"You. Are. NOT. allowed. to Enter. this. room. Try to open it, I'll throw you out of the house at this instant." Kira's tone was so cold and firm.
He didn't care if he would blow up his cover. Once Dylan insisted on opening this door, Kira would not hesitate to use his superpower and kick this young pup out of this mansion with brute force! 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m
Kira has two main reasons for stopping Dylan from seeing Marceline.
First one– his Boss Lin was sound asleep in her room with no clothes. He would not allow any stranger, especially a werewolf man, to enter that room to feast his eyes on his beautiful alluring Lady Boss.
Second reason– he felt competition in Dylan's presence. He didn't know how Marceline would react once she woke up and saw another handsome creature inside her room. And the fact that Dylan was still naked!
Kira had to admit that this young pup was undeniably gorgeous, a worthy competitor when it came to male beauty! He felt threatened.
Towering over six feet, this silver-gray-haired man was definitely good-looking with his muscular build. His skin was flawlessly tanned, a typical alpha male oozing with sex appeal.
His amber eyes were so deep and attractive. Just like Kira, he could melt any woman's heart with just one look.
After a while, realization had dawned on Dylan as to why his savior looked angry and displeased. He immediately retracted his hand that was holding the doorknob, raising his arms in front of Kira while flashing his charming smile.
"Sorry, Bro! I didn't mean to upset you. My feet just brought me here as I was just curious about the person behind this door…"
'Because she smells very pleasant and so unique that I was drawn here…' Dylan added in his thought but didn't dare to say it out loud.
'Bro my foot! I'm not your brother.' Kira pursed his lips, knitting his eyebrows into a frown. He remained silent so Dylan had spoken again.
"I guess she is your woman, right? So I understand why you are upset by my intrusion here. Rest assured that I will not do something that will harm you and your woman, my savior." He tried to appease Kira, telling him that he had no interest in stealing his woman from him.
Dylan smiled sheepishly while scratching the back of his head. For some unknown reason, he felt some fondness towards Kira.
"Yes, she is my woman! And she is sound asleep right now. I don't want others to disturb her peaceful sleep."
Kira immediately threw the clothes on Dylan. The white shirt landed on his face, covering his charming smile. He hated the way this young pup was acting friendly towards him. He still considered him as an enemy.
'But you need to befriend him so that you can use him in the future,' Kira's alter ego reminded him.
Dylan took the clothes– a white shirt, boxer brief, and ripped jeans. Fortunately, Kira and Dylan had the same size and body build. His clothes would certainly fit Dylan's figure.
Kira guided him to the next room for the young pup to put on some clothes and fix himself. He allowed him to use the bathroom for a quick shower.
When Dylan was done, he went downstairs where Kira was waiting for him. Kira offered him hot coffee which Dylan gladly accepted.
"By the way, I'm Dylan. May I know the name of the person who saved my life?" Dylan asked Kira expectantly.
"I'm Kira," he simply responded, taking a sip on his cup of coffee.
Dylan nodded his head. He was staring at him with a grateful look in his eyes.
"Bro, if you don't mind, can I ask you what you saw in that forest? And what are you doing there in the middle of the night? You were supposed to be sleeping with your woman at this hour. But you were out there…"
Kira's face turned ugly. He was displeased to be interrogated by this pup. It seemed that Dylan was quite smart. He knew how to connect things so he should better be careful in answering his questions.
"As you know, this mansion is not far from the Northleaf Timberland Forest. I couldn't sleep so I went out for a night walk. Then suddenly I heard some loud growls. As curious as I could be, I followed the sound and I ended up reaching the riverbank." f𝙧ee𝘄𝐞𝚋𝐧૦ѵeƖ.c𝘰𝓶
Kira paused for a moment, observing Dylan's reaction. So far, he could see that he was listening attentively, not doubting his words.
"Then I saw someone falling off the cliff. It was you. So I jumped into the water to save you. You were unconscious, so I decided to bring you here."
'Did he see my wound? Is he not wondering that my wounds healed so fast?'
"Did you see my wound?" Dylan asked him directly.
But Kira knew how to feign ignorance. "What wound? Are you hurt somewhere? Should I bring you to the hospital?" Kira's acting was so convincing.
"Oh, it's nothing. I don't need to go to the Hospital. I'm just fine." Dylan immediately rejected his offer. He heaved a sigh of relief thinking Kira didn't see his wounds healing up on their own.
"How about you? What are you doing in the Northleaf Mountain at this hour?" Kira threw him a question, diverting the topic away from him.
"Oh, I went there for hiking and camping. You know I am an adventurous person. I didn't expect that the mountain would be dangerous at night. I was chased by wild wolves so I tripped and fell off the cliff." Dylan also made up some alibi. But his story was partly true as he was indeed being chased by wolves– werewolves!
Kira's lips twitched, fighting a smile. The young pup was also good at making a story up.
These two men were trying to hide their real identities from each other. One is a vampire king while the other is a werewolf prince.
"You can stay here for a night and rest. You can leave tomorrow." Kira wanted to call it a night as he was dying to go back to Marceline's room and cuddle her. He had a long night fighting those mutts.
"Thank you again, Bro. I owe you my life so I will make sure to return this favor someday. You have my word," Dylan said to Kira meaningfully.
Kira responded with a smirk. "Hmm, sure. I will keep that in mind as I believe no good deed should go unrewarded. I will be waiting for that time you will return that favor to me."
Dylan bobbed his head, extending his right hand to Kira. Kira gazed down and accepted it. The vampire king and the werewolf prince shook their hands as a sign of their unwritten promise to each other.
