Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge

In the end, the two decided to ask Aunt Brianna for help. Kira and Marceline went back to the Golden City District Hospital to monitor Grandpa Roland.

When they arrived, one doctor approached them right away. Kira noticed that something was strange about the doctor but he couldn't pinpoint it.

The doctor immediately asked Marceline if she's the patient's granddaughter. Kira and Marceline met each other's eyes, exchanging puzzled looks at one another.

They wondered why the doctor was asking Marceline if she's Grandpa Roland's granddaughter. He should have known it already because they met last night while she was pacing back and forth, waiting for Grandpa Roland to finish his surgery.

"Are you his beloved granddaughter, Marceline Celeste?" The doctor had a blank look in his eyes, not showing any emotions at all.

"Yes, I am. Why did you ask me, Doc?" Marceline was still puzzled by the doctor's weird behavior.

The doctor fell silent for a moment, turning from left to right as if he was checking whether someone was there who was listening to their conversation.

"I have to tell you something. Come with me... to my office." The doctor turned around, motioning Marceline to follow him. Both Kira and Marceline had decided to talk to him in private.

"Is it okay to speak my mind even if there is another person here?" He was referring to Kira who was standing next to Marceline.

"Yes, Doc. Just tell us what it is. The person beside me is not an outsider. He is part of my family. He is my husband." Marceline informed the doctor. The doctor guy just nodded his head in agreement.

Staring straight into Marceline's eyes, the doctor said, "Your grandfather is dying. He is poisoned! It's now too late to recover his strength and go back to his normal state."

Marceline's heart constricted when she learned about her grandfather being poisoned and now he was dying.  Who did it? Her Uncle or her Aunt?

"No! Doc, you have to save my grandfather! Please doc! I can't let him die. Please help me protect and save my grandpa," Marceline pleaded for the first time. She seldom asks someone to help her.

"No medicine or health apparatus can save him now. He is dying and it is inevitable." The doctor said expressionlessly.

"That's not true! My grandfather is not dying!" Marceline refused to believe the doctor's words.

At this moment, Kira found out why the doctor was acting strangely. He was put under someone's mind control power.

Kira hastily grabbed the doctor by his collar. "Who are you? Why are you controlling her mind?" he said sternly while looking into the doctor's eyes. Kira was trying to counter the effect of the mind control ability of the vampire who was currently enslaving the doctor's mind.

The doctor was frightened by Kira's aggressiveness. He was very intimidating at this moment, making the doctor shiver from fear.

"I said who are you?! Answer me!" Kira's authoritative voice was heard once again. His grip on the doctor's collar tightened further. He was almost strangling him.

The doctor couldn't utter a word. His body was now sweating a lot because of Kira's chilly aura.

Marceline finally caught on. She realized that Kira was not talking to the doctor directly but to the person who was controlling his mind.

Marceline and Kira were both clueless that Raizel asked his right hand man to relay a message to Marceline about her grandfather's health condition. That vampire controlled the mind of Grandpa Roland's doctor to indirectly inform Marceline everything he knew about Grandpa Roland's condition.

While the doctor was having a conversation with Marceline, Raizel was also assessing whether Marceline was the one who poisoned her own grandfather or not.

And based on her reaction, Raizel confirmed that Marceline didn't poison her grandfather. She was worried sick about him. Marceline felt her world was about to collapse when she heard from the doctor that Grandpa Roland was dying and they were now too late.

But to their surprise, someone interrupted the conversation. Raizel was in his secret hideout together with his right-hand man when Kira got connected to the mind of Raizel's right hand man.

Kira was trying to find out who was controlling the doctor. Was the person an enemy or an ally? He also wanted to make sure whether the information was reliable and the doctor was not making up some stories.

Kira hated to see Marceline in her gloomy state. He could feel her emotions right now. She was utterly devastated by this piece of bad news.

"Are you telling the truth? Is he dying? Answer me or else, I will blow up your brain using my power!" Kira threatened Raizel's right hand man, Miguel.

Afraid of Kira's dominance, Miguel immediately fled as he removed his mind control ability that he cast on the doctor.

Miguel looked at Raizel with an astounded expression on his face.

"My Lord! I think the heiress of the Zhou Empire has connections to other vampires. I didn't expect that someone could counter my mind control ability and even used telepathic ability to communicate with me." Miguel spoke spontaneously. He was still amused by Kira's strength. He didn't recognize Kira, their former Vampire King.

Raizel, who was listening to his right hand man, frowned instantly. Only vampires with a higher rank could do what Miguel had said.

'Countering a vampire general's mind control ability and even communicating with him through telepathy… this man is an extraordinary guy. He is powerful.' Raizel thought to himself.

"My Lord, what should we do now? They mistook us as an enemy." Miguel expressed his concern with Raizel.

"Just let it be. I will deal with this concern personally. I think I have to see the heiress of the Zhou Empire. This is a good time to make an alliance with her, especially now that her grandfather is in great danger."

"Okay, My Lord. You can also ask her about the vampire who is with her today. His power will be an additional strength for our rebel army. We have to recruit him!" Miguel suggested.
