Evelyn was not expecting any visitors tonight. It seemed that she had an uninvited visitor as someone forcefully opened the front door. If it was Vladimir, he would knock, not destroy the door.
Well as expected, Kira was known for destroying doors so it was an easy task for him.
Natasha was still talking on the other line but Evelyn's attention was already focused on the intruder. She immediately hung up the phone and put her phone in silent mode.
Her instinct told her to hide from the intruders. She was in her bedroom when Kira and Marceline entered the house. Her heart was beating so fast from nervousness.
The Ametiz protection stone was not in her possession right now. She was unprotected against werewolves and vampires.
Evelyn was cursing inwardly. She was afraid of getting caught by Kira and Marceline. They were the only people looking for her.
Evelyn's body started to sweat. Her heart continued racing. She went inside the closet to hide. She felt like she would be killed once they found her.
She dialed Vladimir's number but he was not answering. He was busy entertaining Dominique and Serena.
She received several missed calls and messages from Natasha.
[ "Mom, what's happening? Why are you not answering? Is everything fine?" ]
Evelyn felt worried. She didn't know who the intruders were. She needed to escape and flee but how? In the end, she asked Natasha for help.
[ "My daughter, can you please help me? Some intruders entered the house. They are powerful. They are not ordinary people. Come here. And also, help me contact Vladimir. Inform him about my situation." ]
Evelyn's fingers were trembling as she typed her message. She felt suffocated inside that closet. She could hear the intruder's footsteps, inching closer and closer to her spot.
Meanwhile, Kira and Marceline were already upstairs. Although Evelyn was hiding from them, they could tell her location. Using their super sense of hearing and smell, Evelyn's hiding spot could easily be found.
"She's here," Kira blurted out, pointing his forefinger at the door of Evelyn's bedroom.
Marceline nodded her head before moving forward to grab the doorknob. Seconds later, the door swung open. Marceline entered the room.
Her eyes reflexively moved around, looking for Evelyn. Then her gaze stopped in the direction of the closet. She could hear the loud beating of Evelyn's heart and her heavy breathing.
Without further ado, Kira punched the closet, destroying it completely. Evelyn's loud scream echoed in the entire room. Kira almost hit her face when he threw a punch, hitting the hardwood of the closet.
There was a hint of fear in Evelyn's eyes the moment she saw Kira. He was a vampire for goodness's sake. She didn't have the protection stone so she was vulnerable and powerless in front of Kira.
She hid a knife. As her plan of escape, she decided to use Marceline as her shield. Between Kira and Marceline, Evelyn thought she could overpower Marceline.
But little did she know, Marceline was just as powerful as Kira. She couldn't hold her as her hostage.
"Why are you here? How dare you barge into someone else's property!" Evelyn put on a brave front after she recovered from the great shock. She pretended that she was not afraid of them.
"It's time for you to pay your debts. I'm here to collect them… including the interests," Marceline said to her meaningfully, her emerald eyes gleamed with rage.
Evelyn just simply stepped out of the closet and laughed sardonically. As much as possible, she wanted to buy more time. She was praying that Natasha and Vladimir would come on time.
"What debts are you talking about?" Evelyn feigned innocence. "I've been good to you. Why are you doing this to me?" she added, questioning Marceline.
Kira frowned as he didn't like how pretentious Evelyn was. She looked convincing as if she was the real victim.
"You took their lives. You must pay them with your life too," Marceline grabbed Evelyn by her collar. She was surprised as to why Marceline was more powerful than an ordinary human. Her strength was undeniably more powerful than what she had imagined.
She tapped Marceline's hand, trying to remove her fingers from clutching her collar. But to no avail, Marceline's grip was too tight.
Evelyn became more anxious after absorbing Marceline's words. What did she mean by that? Would she kill her too? An eye for an eye… a tooth for a tooth?
Evelyn would not allow that to happen. As much as possible, she would try her best to stay alive. If not, then she would not die without fighting.
'She wants to kill me… then I must kill her first,' Evelyn thought to herself, getting ready to swing and plunge her knife at Marceline's body.
"Admit your sins now… Tell me everything I want to know." Marceline spoke up with so much authority and dominance in her voice.
"What are you planning… together with the werewolf clan?" Marceline started to interrogate her.
"Why did you target my parents? Why did you poison my grandpa?" Marceline clenched her jaw as she tightened her grip further on Evelyn's collar. She was almost choking and strangling her.
Evelyn refused to answer her. She would never admit what she had done. She was very cautious as Kira was around.
When Marceline squeezed her neck using her fingers, Evelyn started to panic. She didn't want to die yet.
While Marceline was interrogating Evelyn, Kira joined the conversation.
"My Lady, no need to ask her. I can give you a detailed answer. Let me just touch her head."
Evelyn's eyes widened when she heard that. She was aware of the mind-reading ability of the vampires. Kira must not see nor read what's on her mind.
She shook her head, still struggling against Marceline. But Marceline was holding her in place. With no choice left, Evelyn decided to strike back. Evelyn plunged her knife forward, aiming at Marceline's chest.
*Swiss!*
Everything happened so fast. Before Marceline could avoid the attack, the tip of the knife was already buried inside her chest.
"My Lady!" Kira immediately pushed Evelyn away from Marceline, her back hitting the wooden closet. Evelyn screamed and whimpered in pain because of the strong force Kira exerted.
Meanwhile, Marceline was holding the knife that was buried in her chest. Her emerald eyes suddenly turned into amber. Stella was furious as Marceline's body got hurt.
"Die, you fucking bitch! Hahaha!" Evelyn finally showed her true colors when she saw Marceline's stabbed wound. She's bleeding.
"I'm not going to die alone! I will bring you down with me!" Evelyn screamed, still trying to steady her footings. She was also hurt when her body hit the wooden closet.
She was totally cornered by Kira so she had no choice but to fight back and kill Marceline.
Marceline clenched her fists. Then she pulled the knife out of her flesh. The blood was oozing out of her wound. Fortunately, Marceline was able to move so that the knife would not hit her heart. It was her survival instinct that kicked in a while ago.
Stella was already growling inside her head. She wanted to rip Evelyn's body apart. Kira also felt the same way. He wanted to kill Evelyn right here, right then!
"Game over now, Evelyn," Marceline mumbled with a dark aura surrounding her. Evelyn could feel the chill running down her spine as soon as she met Marceline's deathly gaze.
Evelyn noticed that Marceline was still standing despite the injury she got from her. How was that possible? Evelyn was wondering as to why Marceline didn't collapse nor lose consciousness. For goodness's sake! She just plunged a sharp knife on her chest but she was still standing as if nothing happened.
'Is she a monster? Why is she still alive? I stabbed her heart!' Evelyn's fear intensified.
Not able to control her anger, Marceline shifted into her werewolf form, surprising Evelyn at the core. A few minutes had passed after reaching her complete transformation. A giant white wolf was now standing before Evelyn.
'W-What? Marceline is a werewolf? How–" she was not able to finish the sentence in her mind when Marceline suddenly pounced on her.
Evelyn fell to the ground, her back lying on the surface of the ground while Marceline's werewolf form was on top of her. Kira was just silently observing them. He was allowing Marceline and Stella to do what they wanted.
"Y-You are a… werewolf?!!" Evelyn didn't know what to feel anymore. She was dumbfounded seeing Marceline's werewolf form.
*Growl! Growl!*
Stella growled at Evelyn before she stepped on her both hands.
"Aaaaah!!!!" Evelyn screamed in pain. Marceline's paws were used to press Evelyn's body into the ground.
Marceline wanted Evelyn to experience the pain and fear her parents had experienced when Cedric and his Beta attacked them eighteen years ago.
'I will never let you escape again. You will suffer under my hand!' Marceline thought to herself. Her thoughts were connected to Stella. With that, she began torturing Evelyn, making her scream and whimper non-stop!
"Aaaaah! Let me go! You are breaking my hands! Please… Marceline!" Evelyn pleaded with her in her desperate voice.
As she screamed, Kira was enjoying the show. This was the punishment Evelyn deserved.
Marceline started to break the bones in her arms using her white paws. Evelyn was crying while pleading for Marceline's mercy. But Marceline's heart had become stone-cold towards Evelyn. She was the root cause of her parents' deaths.
'I will not show you any mercy. I will not forget nor forgive.'
