Dylan was rendered speechless when Dominique told him that Kira might be the Former Vampire King who was his father's mortal nemesis.

"Resurrected? How could that happen?" Dylan spoke up after a few minutes of silence.

"I'm not sure as well. This is the reason why I asked Cedric to investigate his background and identity. But I have this strong feeling that he is Kira Alaric. They have the same face and same name. This is not just a great coincidence." Dominique insisted on him. He continued giving him some warning. Dylan should be careful around Kira.

Dylan just remained silent. He was thinking about Kira. He had been curious about the Vampire King. He often asked his vampire slave, Beatrice, about her former Vampire King.

Dylan was intrigued about how powerful the Vampire King was. He even thought that he was the reason why his parents suffered all these years. There was hearsay going around the Kingdom of Phantasia, saying his parents were cursed by the Moon Goddess because of what happened to the Vampire King.

But until now, no one confirmed that. The Moon Goddess never showed up to the Kingdom Phantasia for the past hundred years.

'If Kira is the Vampire King, then… Can I ask him what happened between my parents and him?' Dylan thought to himself. Despite knowing the possibility that Kira was his father's rival, he never considered Kira as his enemy.

For some unknown reason, he wanted to get closer to Kira and Marceline. The two were like his siblings. How he truly wished that Marceline was his missing twin sister. But it was impossible now as they finally found Stella.

Dylan was still lost in his own thoughts when Dominique picked something inside his drawer. It was a necklace containing an herb called vervain. He gave it to Dylan.

"Son, you should always wear this. It will protect you from being compelled, hypnotized, and controlled by powerful vampires like Kira Alaric."







If werewolves are weak to wolfbane, the vervain, a potent herb, was known to be a vampire's weakness. If a vampire, especially those ordinary vampires, made physical contact with vervain in any form, it would burn them.

This herb was also the best protection against the mind control ability of the vampires. But the werewolves only had limited supply of this herb. The high-ranking werewolves could obtain this special herb.

However, some of them were not carrying vervain anymore because they thought vampires were already weakened. Only a few vampires had the capability to control a werewolf's mind.

Even Cedric took it for granted, that's why he had no protection during his encounter with Kira. Kira succeeded in reading his mind.

But Kira, who was considered as the most powerful vampire, could still influence and control someone's mind even if that person was using vervain as his or her protection. It would only take effect in just a brief moment, depending on the power and strength of the person being compelled. Furthermore, it could also hurt Kira in the process.

"Okay, father. I will take this if this will make you feel at ease," Dylan said, taking the necklace from his father. Deep inside, he was more cautious and concerned about Cedric's scheme than to Kira.

He couldn't help it. He was very fond of Kira. He also made a promise to Kira that he would return the favor someday. He owed him his life so he would certainly do something for him to repay his kindness.

"Father… Please don't forget about our agreement. You will look into the assassination attempt against me and you have to keep my whereabouts a secret from Cedric. I will also try to gather proof and find out the mastermind." Dylan already changed the topic.

Dominique just nodded his head. "I will give you a month. After that, you have to go back with us to the Kingdom of Phantasia. If you will still insist on staying here because of your mate, then I will have to ask the Shadow Wolf Team to bring you back to our kingdom." Dominique warned Dylan.

He didn't want Dylan to stay longer in the human world. His son was the next in line to the throne. Vampires would target him once they found out his real identity.

Dominique became more anxious about his son's safety because of Kira's presence.







"Father… Please give me more time. One month is not enough. I also want to investigate Kira's real identity." Dylan became more curious about Kira. He wanted to get to know him more.

"I can't. I told you already. That man is a very dangerous vampire. Don't associate yourself with him." Dominique objected.

"But we don't have proof yet that he is the Vampire King. For me… He is harmless!" Dylan retorted once again.

Dominique could only sigh deeply because of his son's stubbornness. "Ok. Fine! Do what you want. Just be careful. And you only have one month. No more extension."

"Father–"

"No more buts!" Dominique cut him off immediately. "Don't you want to spend more time with your twin sister? We will bring her to our kingdom. You should be there with us."

At the mention of Stella, Dylan could only sigh in defeat. Of course, he wanted to spend more time with Stella.

'Damn. What should I do? I can't leave Lyca here. Will I be able to tell her about my identity? I need Marceline's help. I wish to bring Lyca with me.'

Dylan was worried that Lyca would continue loving Enrique if ever he would leave her. So with the deadline set by his father, he planned on revealing his identity to Lyca. He would try to ask her to come with him to Kingdom Phantasia.

'I should double time in courting her and winning her heart.' Dylan took a deep breath before saying goodbye to his father. He was already thinking of so many ways how to make Lyca fall for him.

'I can't wait to marry her…'
