Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge

Marceline shot Kira a sharp glare when he raised his voice, telling her to keep her weapon.

"Why should I listen to you? Do you think you are in a position to tell me what to do? You are at my mercy right now. One move and I can slit your throat to end your sinful life," Marceline hissed with a mocking look in her eyes.

She hated this man's gut. He didn't even blink nor be intimidated even after getting a knife being pressed at his neck. His eyes had no fear nor worry, only pride and confidence could be seen in them.

"I'll ask you again. Who. Sent. You. Here?" Marceline emphasized her four last words.

Kira's scarlet eyes blazed as he held his head high, meeting Marceline's emerald orbs. He was already contemplating in his mind whether to make a move or not.

The dagger on his neck was adding fuel to his rage. As much as he wanted to forget that tragic past, he couldn't do it as a certain woman whose identity he did not know kept on reminding him about her.

Aside from the dagger she was holding, Marceline's emerald eyes and her sweet scent were making Kira remember the woman who betrayed him~ Selene Athanasia.

"Lady, mind your manners. You are a bit rude. Instead of asking me about who sent me here, you should have asked for my name first…" Kira said with a sneer. 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m

"You didn't even have the slightest courtesy of introducing yourself," he added with a hint of sarcasm in his voice. But Marceline totally ignored it.

"I'm not interested in your name. What I want to know is the person who gave you an order to break into my place and hurt me," she said nonchalantly, rolling her eyes at him.

Kira exhaled deeply. He already had enough of this. Not wanting to cater her baseless accusation nor prolong this unnecessary interrogation, Kira finally removed his binds by just tugging his hands forcefully thus breaking the metal handcuffs.

Marceline didn't see it coming. Before she knew it, Kira was already holding the dagger that was in her hand previously.

Marceline looked at him with eyes wide open and mouth gape. She was surprised beyond belief, wondering what had just happened. Her gaze fell on the handcuffs that were now broken. Even the rope that was binding Kira's legs had been removed.

'What the hell is that? How did he break those handcuffs? And how did he steal my knife?'

Kira used his super speed and strength, catching Marceline off guard. She didn't even see his movement.

Kira smirked triumphantly seeing her stunned reaction. Unknowingly, he found her cute with her current expression.

'Tsk, Now it's my turn to counterattack.'

Marceline stepped back as she sensed danger. She didn't like the way Kira was flashing his devilish grin while staring at her as if she was his prey whom he was about to devour.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

For the first time, Marceline's heart started pounding rapidly against the wall of her chest. But it was not because of fear. Instead, it was because she found the man dangerously but strikingly beautiful.

'Shit! Marceline Celeste, get a grip of yourself!' She gulped hard trying to bring back her composure.

Kira broke her momentum and he turned the table around.

"Now, my lady. Let's talk properly. We don't need this anymore." Kira mumbled with his suave tone before throwing the dagger away from both of them.

Marceline continued to step back, maintaining a certain distance from Kira. She was calculating his next move. She knew how to fight and some self-defense moves so she was confident that she could protect herself against this strange handsome man.

"Let me ask you a question, my lady," Kira mumbled, flashing a taunting smile as he walked closer to her.

Marceline squinted her eyes at him, clenching her fists as she got ready to throw a punch at any moment.

"Your Lady your foot," Marceline muttered annoyingly through her gritted teeth.

Kira let out a husky laugh, amazed by her bravery. She was still putting up a brave front.

"May I know your name? I think I owe you for giving me such a delicious meal." Kira was referring to the blood he consumed from her. Marceline was still unaware of it.

Marceline frowned, glaring at him. "No! I refused to answer." she promptly responded with conviction.

Kira slammed his eyes shut and massaged his temples. He just wanted to have a proper conversation with her to find out where he was. But this woman was so stubborn beyond his imagination. He was losing his patience.

"I guess I have no choice but to force an answer from you," Kira said with his threatening look. He decided to use his mind control ability against this stubborn woman.

In just a blink of an eye, Marceline felt her body being pushed to the wall. But she wasn't hurt at all. f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

When she raised her head, Marceline met his intense gaze. He was pinning her on the wall while holding both her shoulders.

For some unknown reason, Marceline couldn't look away. Her eyes were glued on his face as if there was an invisible force urging her to look at his eyes.

She was at a loss for words. She felt like she was being hypnotized by those scarlet eyes. She couldn't take her eyes off him.

'Why do I suddenly find his eyes beautiful and mesmerizing?' She thought to herself, swallowing hard. She could feel it, the loud drumming of her heartbeat.

Marceline was still lost in her thoughts when Kira had spoken again.

"Whether you like it or not, you will answer my question. Do you hear me?" Kira was looking at her, not breaking their eye contact. He was now using his mind control ability.

He thought his power was already in effect as he saw Marceline bobbing her head obediently.

Kira flashed his charming smile as he moved his face closer to hers. "Now tell me your name, my Lady."

Instead of hearing her name, Kira received a shocking response coming from Marceline.

Marceline suddenly leaned over pressing her lips against Kira's lips.

At that certain moment, Kira froze in his spot and it seemed like his body was electrocuted when her soft warm lips touched his cold ones.

'What the hell is happening here? I ordered her to say her name, not to steal a kiss from me!!!'
