Chapter 219 Setting The Dinner Date

[ Silvano Private Villa… ]

"How's your day?" Dominique asked Serena, hugging her from behind. She had just come out of the shower when Dominique entered the room.

"I tried searching for Dylan and Stella… but I didn't find them. Don't you have a way to contact our son? I want to know if he has any updates about his missing sister… our daughter," Serena gazed up with a solemn look in her eyes.

Dominique sighed deeply, caressing her cheeks. He knew that his wife was dying to see their children. Stella had been missing for twenty-four years and now, Dylan was not around. This was the first time their son got separated from them for a long time.

"My Queen… would you believe me if I said… I met someone who is like our daughter?"

Serena turned around to face Dominique upon hearing that. There was a hopeful look in her emerald eyes.

"Is that true? Do you think she's our daughter? Where is she? I want to meet her!" Serena tugged his shirt while questioning Dominique.

"I don't know if she's our daughter but I feel like she has some resemblance with you. Her emerald eyes… her looks… and whenever I see her, my heart is filled with joy. I had fun talking to her. But…"

"But what?" Serena asked him expectantly.

"But she's an ordinary human. And she is from the family of the Zhou Gatekeepers…" Dominique said with a hint of disappointment in his voice. If only Marceline was his daughter then he would be the happiest father. He liked her so much and he was worried about her.

It was seldom for him to sacrifice his own self just to save someone. He was stabbed just because he protected her. It was like a father's protective instinct.

"Bring me to her! I want to meet her as well." Serena was not losing hope. She knew it was very rare for Dominique to care about someone who was not his family. Besides, their connection as parent and child would make them feel it.

Dominique nodded his head, giving her a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, my Queen. She promised to treat us to a meal. You will meet her soon."

"I don't want to expect… but I am still hoping to reunite with our son and daughter. When are we going to see them? I miss Dylan… and my princess." Serena expressed her feelings with her husband.

"Just be patient. I'm positive that my dream has meaning. I have this feeling we will find her soon." Dominique pulled Serena into a warm hug. She also hugged him back while leaning her head on his chest.

The King and Queen of Werewolves were clueless that their enemies had started to move– the vampires and Cedric's pack. A piece of good news is about to come for the husband and wife.

[ Triple W Headquarters… ]

Cedric had been waiting for Vladimir and his team to come. He didn't know what happened to their mission. Vladimir hadn't informed him yet.

The CEO was patiently waiting for his loyal men, hoping that they found the werewolf princess.

Cedric was in the underground prison cell. They decided to meet there tonight wherein other members of Triple W would not see them. Some members already went home. Cedric wanted to make sure that no one from Dominique's side would find out about their activity and movement in that underground.

After an hour of waiting, Cedric turned into the entrance as he heard several footsteps approaching. The door slid open and Vladimir entered first, followed by Cedric's Beta and a beautiful lady in a floral dress.

Cedric's eyes gleamed after seeing the woman. He assumed that the woman standing beside Cleo was Stella, the werewolf princess.

'They found her?! This is great. This is my chance to become the Werewolf King!' Cedric felt exhilarated. He was looking forward to the time he would reign in the Kingdom Phantasia and rule over all creatures, including werewolves and vampires.

'Are you sure she is the princess? What are our signs?' Cedric communicated with Vladimir through a mind link.

'Her scent… her age… her eyes… She looks like our Queen. She's been living alone. But we can still check through her blood,' Vladimir responded.

'Okay. I got it. Let's check if her blood matched Dominique's blood and Serena's blood.'

Cedric immediately welcomed them. He bowed his head and reached for Stella's hand. Then he brought her arm on his lips, kissing the back of her palm.

"Welcome back, our princess," Cedric smiled at her as if he was trying to look cool in front of her.

"I'm Cedric Morgan, the CEO of Triple W. I'm so glad to finally meet you… our princess."

Stella just looked at him in puzzlement. Her expression seemed so real as if she really had no idea what was happening.

"Why are you all calling me princess?" Stella asked them.

This time Vladimir butted in to explain things to Stella and Cedric.

"Alpha Cedric, Stella doesn't have a clue about her real identity. Her power is also sealed. Her wolf hasn't manifested yet. It was the same situation as our Queen before."

Cedric just nodded his head as he understood Vladimir. Then Vladimir continued speaking. At this moment, he spoke to Stella.

"Princess Stella, we are here to tell you who you are."

Vladimir paused for a moment, allowing Cedric to guide Stella to her seat first. The moment they sat, Stella focused his attention on Vladimir. She was also curious to know the story twenty-four years ago.

"You are a werewolf. You're our werewolf princess. You were kidnapped by vampires, taking you away from us. And now, we've finally found you."

Vladimir told her what happened twenty-four years ago. He blamed the vampires for what happened. At first, Stella looked shocked but she recovered immediately.

"How is that possible? Werewolves, vampires? Do they truly exist?" Stella asked them inquisitively.

To make her believe, Cedric motioned Cleo to show it. He shifted into his wolf form in front of Stella.

"Wow! It's true! You are amazing!" Stella said cheerfully while looking at Cleo's wolf form.

"It's not yet the time to meet your parents. We will have to make sure first. Can we take some blood samples from you?" Vladimir politely consulted her.

"Sure. I am also dying to know my origins." Stella gave them permission.

Vladimir and Cedric exchanged meaningful glances with one another, a triumphant smile carving on their faces. They were one step closer to reaching their goal. Stella was the key!

*****

The next morning, Marceline woke up without Kira on her side. She remembered she passed out from too much exhaustion last night. Kira drained all her energy for being so passionate during their intimate moment.

She slept so soundly that she even failed to notice that Kira went out last night. Until now, Kira hadn't returned home yet. He was in a great dilemma after talking to Gisel. Kira chose to be alone and stay out all night.

Marceline got off the bed and put some clothes on. She opened the door of the room only to find Little Lowell standing outside. He had been standing there, waiting for Marceline to wake up.

The little hybrid boy had a pitiful look on his eyes as if telling her 'Why didn't you join me in the bed last night, Mama?'

"Good morning, little one. Don't give me such a look. You should smile to start your morning with positive energy!" Marceline teased the hybrid boy by touching and messing his hair. Little Lowell smiled immediately, hugging Marceline's right leg.

"Did you see your Papa?" Marceline asked the boy. She was referring to Kira.

Little Lowell shook his head frantically. He hadn't seen him as well. Though he was not close to Kira, Little Lowell was very mindful of his actions while Marceline was around.

He didn't want to disappoint Marceline so he would try to interact with Kira, especially if Marceline was present by their sides.

Meanwhile, Marceline was surprised because there was no sign of Kira around the house.

'What happened to him? He left again without telling me,' She lamented to herself.

Marceline tried to call Kira but he was not answering at all. She started to worry once again.

"Kira, please answer the phone…"

After numerous times of dialing Kira's number, his phone number became unattended.

"Something is not right. I wonder if he is just fine."

Marceline was about to go downstairs together with Little Lowell when her phone beeped. She immediately checked the message, hoping it was from Kira.

The one who sent her the message was none other than Dominique.

[ Dominique's Message: "Miss Zhou, are you available tonight with your husband? Why don't we go out and have a double dinner date? My wife is so excited to meet you." ]

Marceline smiled faintly after reading the message. Then she typed her response.

[ Marceline's Message: "Sure. Let's have dinner tonight. See you.  I will arrange the restaurant for us. ]
