Chapter 276 Only But The Truth

"W-What? You are… a werewolf?" Dylan asked her again. He wanted to confirm if he heard it right. He held her shoulders, looking at her intently.

"Yes, I'm a werewolf," Marceline repeated her words.

His grip on her shoulders tightened, his eyes gleaming with joy. What if she was his missing sister? They thought it would be impossible since she was a human and she didn't have that birthmark. But now, after hearing this, Dylan regained his hope.

"How did that happen? Is the Zhou family not your real family?" Dylan asked her again with anticipation.

Meanwhile, Marceline frowned as soon as she noticed the bright mood of Dylan. He looked so happy even though she was devastated by the fact that she was not a human and the Zhou Family was not her own family.

"Why do you look so happy with my misfortune?" Marceline lamented, punching Dylan on his chest. "Are you glad that I am an orphan?" Marceline pouted her lips.

"Hey! Hey! Don't misunderstand me. I didn't mean that. I'm sorry," Dylan immediately consoled Marceline, stroking her hair. He was acting so sweet towards her.

"I think… there is a possibility that we are related to each other," Dylan explained to her. The smile on his face never left.

"What do you mean by that?" Marceline asked him in confusion.

"Don't you feel it?" Dylan moved his gaze from her face to her chest.

"Pervert! Why are you looking at me in that part?" Marceline crossed her arms over her chest.

Her actions brought crisp laughter to Dylan's mouth. She looked so cute and adorable. But at the same time, he found it funny when Marceline was thinking he was interested in her.

"Relax, Marceline. You are not my type. I like you as my sister. I only have Lyca in my heart." Dylan let out another husky laugh. "What I am trying to say is that… Don't you feel it… our close bond? I feel like I am connected to you. I feel so comfortable in your presence. And I am always in a bright mood when I'm with you. I also have the urge to protect you. I don't want to see you sad or cry!"

Dylan started to share his true feelings towards Marceline. "From the first time I saw you, I felt like something was drawing me near towards you."

For some unknown reason, Marceline could also feel the same way. Dylan was right. She also felt that strong connection with him.

"Sis… can you turn around again. Let me see it. The mark on your nape. Who knows you have it now?" Dylan excitedly asked her.

"What mark?" Marceline reacted once more.

Dylan lifted his shirt and showed her his birthmark. Marceline fell silent as soon as she saw Dylan's birthmark. It was a crescent moon, located on his right chest. For some unknown reason, she got attracted to it. She raised her hand, pressing her fingers on his birthmark. Her finger traced it, her eyes beaming with amusement.

"It's beautiful," Marceline mumbled.

Dylan could only smile at her dotingly. Though he already saw Beatrice's Birthmark which was similar to his, Dylan still wanted to check the mark on Marceline's nape. He was still hoping that she was his real sister. He couldn't feel the same closeness and the bond he had for Marceline towards Beatrice. He couldn't compare but compared the two of them.

'What if the Stella in our house right now is just an impostor? My gut feeling is telling me that Marceline might be my missing sister!'

"Marceline… will you let me see the back of your neck again?" Dylan requested her.

Marceline felt conflicted for a moment. What would she do if she was related to Dylan, Serena, and Dominique? Things would become more complicated between Kira and her. Would she be able to accept it? Would Kira be able to handle it?

At that certain moment, Marceline got scared… She was scared of losing Kira. She was afraid that Kira would change… that he wouldn't be able to accept him. What if the truth would break them further apart?

"Sis, what's wrong?" Dylan got worried when he noticed her sullen expression. "Don't you want to become part of our family? Do you hate us that much?"

Marceline shook her head. She didn't know the answer any more. All this time, she hated werewolves. Then later on, she found out that she was one of them. What happened in the past? How did she become a member of the Zhou Family? What happened to the real baby of Mr. and Mrs. Zhou?

"Let's not think about anything else right now. We are not sure yet. But there is only one way to find out. Will you allow me to check it for you?" Dylan tried to convince Marceline.

It did not take long when Marceline finally agreed. She bobbed her head as she turned around, facing her back to Dylan. With his trembling hands, Dylan reached out, lifting her hair. Dylan held his breath, his heart beating so fast inside his chest.

One second…

Two seconds…

Five seconds…

Ten seconds had passed but Dylan remained frozen in his spot. Marceline had to call him out to know what was happening to him.

"Dylan? How is it? Are you done checking?" Marceline asked him curiously. She was about to turn around to face Dylan but she was stopped by him when Dylan suddenly pounced on her from the back. He hugged her tightly.

"Sis… you are my real sister! You finally have it! The birthmark… It's there!" Dylan couldn't contain his happiness. He felt surreal. His emotions suddenly poured out and he couldn't help but shed some tears. They were tears of joy!

"I knew it! It's you! From the moment I see you… I already felt the strong connection between us! Sis… You are the real Stella! My missing twin sister… our princess! I've finally found you!" Dylan squeezed her in his arms. He couldn't believe it. It was like a dream come true.

Dylan was still in a state of euphoria when someone entered the room.

"What is the meaning of this?" Kira's icy voice was heard.
