Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge

The banquet in the castle continued. The elders approached Dylan and Stella. They kept questioning how they found each other. Some were still doubtful of the werewolf princess' identity. What if she was an impostor again?

"Forgive me for asking this. But I just want to know... how did you find out that she is the real werewolf princess? Our princess had been gone for so long," The werewolf elder questioned them.

Dominique and Serena also joined them. At first, they were deceived by the vampires. But this time, they could feel their connection with Stella also known as Marceline.

"We have birthmarks! Same birthmarks!" Dylan informed them.

"Can you transform into your wolf form? This is also one way to confirm if she is one of us," Another elder shared her opinion as they were trying to confirm Stella's identity.

Marceline glanced at Dominique and Serena. Transforming into her wolf form would be troublesome. She was wearing a beautiful gown and it would get ruined once she shifted into her wolf form.

"Ladies and gentlemen, can't we just enjoy this banquet first? We will let you see her wolf form some other time. This is not the time for that." Dominique stepped in to help his daughter. He didn't like the way the elders were pressuring Stella.

They didn't have to doubt her identity as they already confirmed it.

"We apologize, our King. That's true. We need to enjoy this celebration. Prince Dylan also returned. We had no idea that he left the kingdom only to find out your general tried to assassinate him!" The leader of the council spoke up.

He was still shaken knowing that Cedric Morgan performed a rebellious act. The White Claw Pack would be implicated in this.

"This was Dylan's secret mission. Of course, no one aside from my wife and I knew that the prince left the kingdom." Dominique immediately justified the situation. They had to keep Dylan's departure from everyone.

But who would have thought, Cedric Morgan would be the one to betray him, attacking his son behind his back? He would surely punish him.

"What are we going to do with the members of White Claw Pack? Their Alpha is being imprisoned here. They will not stand still. They will make a move to save their Alpha." The elder spoke again.

"We need to catch them all!" Another one suggested.

"We can't do that! We have no proof that all the members of the White Claw Pack have something to do with this rebellious act. What if this was only Cedric's greed," Dylan butted in. He didn't want innocent werewolves to get involved.

"I will put them under strict surveillance. If there will be suspicious movements from their end, I will order to capture them right away," Dominique replied, reassuring them.

Dylan thanked his father for supporting him. If Stella was not around, Dominique would not be merciful. He wouldn't care about investigating further. He would be ruthless to all members of the White Claw Pack. Innocent or not, the pack would suffer in his hand.

Meanwhile, Serena already pulled Stella away from those men. They were talking about serious matters and it was not fun to listen to.

Serena introduced Stella to she-wolves who have high positions in the kingdom of Phantasia. Lyca and Little Lowell could only follow them. Stella tried her best to mingle with them.

Stella learned more about her fellow she-wolves. They were fighters as well. And they could be as strong as the male werewolf fighters.

She was also having fun talking with them. So werewolves weren't that bad at all. That's what she thought as she continued bonding with them.

Meanwhile, in the underground prison, Cedric was chained in a  highly guarded prison cell. A magical silver chain was used to seal his wolf. The witches put spells on the binding silver chains, obeying Dominique's command.

The prison cell was very dark and cold. Cedric was tugging the chains trying to break them. But he was not powerful enough to break them.

"Damn! I was deceived by Dominique! Dylan and Marceline knew each other?! How come he was still alive? Dylan should be dead!" Cedric mumbled through his gritted teeth.

"I won't accept this. This is not the end. I will take everything from them!" Cedric swore to himself.

It did not take long when someone entered the prison cell. It was one of the werewolf fighters who escorted him to this underground prison cell.

"Once I get out here, I will kill you!" Cedric yelled at the guard with rage.

But the guard suddenly fell to his knees as he faced Cedric. "Forgive me, Alpha. I failed to inform you about their plan."

Cedric's expression when he heard that. At this moment, he finally recognized the man. He was his spy.

"What are you waiting for? Release me now and get me out of here!" Cedric demanded. He was losing his patience.

He was furious and he didn't want to stay in that dark and cold prison cell. He was an Alpha of White Claw Pack for goodness's sake. How could they treat him like this?

"I'm sorry, Alpha. I don't have the key. But you have nothing to worry about. I will inform Vladimir and your beta, Cleo. They will surely make a strategy on how we will rescue you and escape from this prison."

Cedric could only clench his jaw. He had no choice but to wait for his comrades to save him.

"Fine! Go and warn them. You should get me out of here as soon as possible!" Cedric said angrily.

"Yes, Alpha. I will go now." The spy said goodbye to Cedric. He had to warn Cedric's allies. Dominique's people would surely capture them, sending them to prison.

Before it happened, they must act first and figure out how they would rescue Cedric. This was going to be an all-out war. They had nothing to hide anymore. Once they rescued their Alpha, they would launch the rebellion, taking the throne away from the Silvano Family.

"Dominique... you will regret this!" Cedric mumbled, clenching his fists. Now he was thinking of working together with the vampires to bring Dominique down.
