Kira remained still for a while, trying to figure out what was going on here. With his unblinking eyes, he looked at her in a state of shock.

Their lips were still connected, no one between them dared to move. He could feel the softness of her lips. They were so warm compared to his cold ones.

‘Why did she kiss me? Is there something wrong with my power? Or maybe she didn’t hear me clearly. I asked for her name, not to be kissed by her! Why can’t she follow a simple instruction??!’

His mind was so occupied as if he was trying to solve a riddle. And that riddle was none other than Marceline, herself.

Unknowingly, Kira loosened his grip on her shoulders. When he did that, Marceline was able to move her arms.

She raised her hands, anchoring them around Kira’s neck. That’s the time Marceline started to move, brushing her lips against his lips in a slow but sensual movement.

Kira began to panic. This was not what he had in mind when he tried to use his ability. He was supposed to seek answers from her, making her open her mouth to talk but they ended up sealing each other’s lips.

‘No! This is so wrong! You have to stop this, Kira.’ He warned himself as he was having an internal struggle.

Somewhere in his subconscious, he was reminded of the promise he made one thousand years ago in the Valley of Promise. He swore to love only one woman.

Kissing another woman felt like he was breaking his promise and betraying her. With that thought in mind, Kira found the courage to fight this temptation.

He held Marceline’s body, getting ready to push her away. However, before he could do that, his inner self spoke to himself once again.

‘Betraying her? Did you lose your mind Kira Alaric? Have you forgotten that she was the first one who betrayed you? She deceived you. She’s Dominique’s Luna! They are mates and they have love bonds!’

Kira’s heart suddenly clenched inside his chest. The raging fury within him was awakened, burning his soul and whole being.

So instead of pushing Marceline, Kira pulled her body against him. He kissed her back!

He closed his eyes as he began responding to her, deepening the kiss. The rage inside his heart triggered him to kiss her aggressively and hungrily.

When he thought that he was already dominating her through this kiss, Kira just found himself drowning in ecstasy when Marceline matched his aggressiveness with equal intensity.

Marceline took the lead once again as she invaded his mouth seeking something inside. When she found what she was looking for, she began teasing him by sucking his tongue while caressing his face.

For some unknown reason, Kira felt like her kiss was comforting him, slowly extinguishing the blazing rage within him. He was surprised as to how she was able to tame his angry heart and make him into submission.

Without realizing it, Kira was now the one being pushed on the wall as she continued kissing him sensually and passionately.

‘Damn! This woman is driving me nuts. She’s a great kisser.’

After that long deep passionate kiss, Marceline drew back for a moment to catch some breath. Her forehead rested on his, both of them panting heavily. Her hands were still cupping his face while Kira’s hands were gripping her narrow waist.

Marceline gave him another peck on his lips, making Kira crave for more. He felt the need to kiss her lips again.

“Don’t stop… Kiss me more…” Kira murmured with a hoarse voice.

‘Damn! I think I really lost my mind. Why do I sound like a desperate man asking to be kissed by her once again?’ Kira scolded himself inwardly.

He didn’t know why he suddenly felt a strong attraction to this woman. Was it just because of his hatred toward Selene that he wanted to rebel by getting intimate with another woman?

“If you want me to continue then stop thinking about something else and just focus on me,” Marceline suddenly blurted out with her commanding tone.

‘Eh, how did she know that I am thinking about something? Do I look distracted?’

Kira gulped hard. He couldn’t believe it. A mere human was talking to him in her authoritative voice. She was so bold and fierce that he was afraid to disobey her.

Subconsciously, Kira nodded his head obediently as he waited for her to reward him with another sweet kiss.

Marceline finally opened her eyes, meeting Kira’s scarlet ones. Then she flashed a charming smile and said, “Good boy…”

Kira: “…”

Kira blinked several times just staring at her.

‘What? Did she just call me good boy? Why do I feel like she is treating me like a child now?’

Kira pouted his lips as his brows were drawn together.

Marceline giggled seeing his annoyed expression. Her laughter was like a piece of beautiful music in his ears. He couldn’t help but be mesmerized by her.

Kira didn’t know what happened but he felt like the woman suddenly changed her attitude toward him. Was this an effect of his mind control power that he used against her?

Marceline moved closer to him until their bodies were already touching each other. She leaned over, whispering in his ear.

“Handsome, you look familiar to me. I think I have seen you somewhere. Oh yeah, I remember now.”

Kira frowned upon hearing that. “D-Do you know me?”

“Yes, I do,” Marceline softly mumbled before nibbling on his earlobe.

Kira’s heart skipped a beat.

“Then who am I?” Kira asked her expectantly, his eyes filled with anticipation. What if this woman had some idea how he got there? He wanted to know.

“You’re my future husband,” she said seductively, planting a soft kiss on his jawline. She was clearly flirting with him.

Kira: “…”

He breathed in deeply, trying to calm those strange but familiar feelings she managed to stir inside him.

‘A while ago, she was determined to kill me and now she is hitting on me! Does she have a split personality or what?’

Kira was still lost in his thoughts when Marceline threw him another question.

“What’s your name, handsome?”

“I’m Kira…” he subconsciously mumbled.

“Hmm…Kira, Who?”

“Kira Vladamirovich Alaric, the Vampire King…”

It was too late when Kira realized what he had just said. He was not supposed to reveal that. But those words just came out of his mouth naturally when she started asking him questions.

‘Damn! What’s wrong with me? She is supposed to be the one under my power but it seems like I am the one who is put under her spell.’

“Kira…” Marceline uttered his name before passing out in his arms.
