BXBX NOVEL Chapter 229 She Is A Vampire
[ Silvano Villa… ]
Serena and Stella arrived at the mansion. Stella\'s eyes roamed around her surroundings. She noticed the heightened and tight security around the vicinity.
Several elite guards were scattered in the different areas. The place was also protected by a powerful spell. It was an anti-vampire spell. Fortunately, Stella had already prepared for this.
Stella was still assessing the area when Serena grabbed her hands, excitedly pulling her inside the house. They settled down on the couch, sitting next to each other.
"I still can\'t believe that you are here now. We\'ve been looking for you for 24 years. I\'m so happy. I knew it! You are still alive. We never gave up on finding you!" Serena embraced her warmly. She couldn\'t contain her joy and happiness.
"I\'m also surprised. I didn\'t expect that I would find you as well. I thought my parents intentionally abandoned me," Stella said with a solemn expression on her face.
"No! Of course not! We never abandoned you! Someone took you away from us to punish us. We suspected that the vampires were the ones responsible for your disappearance." A cold glint flashed in her eyes when she said those words.
"I\'m sorry… we failed to protect you," Serena added, apologizing to Stella.
Stella just smiled faintly, caressing Serena\'s cheeks. "Don\'t apologize, Mother. It\'s not your fault. Besides, I am alive, safe, and sound."
Serena bobbed her head, flashing a gentle smile on her face. She would like to know how her missing daughter had been living all these years. She started asking Stella about her life here in the human world.
Stella already prepared her story to tell. It coincided with the information Cedric had gathered after investigating her background and profile. Her story was consistent… seemed not to have any loopholes at all. Serena was convinced about Stella\'s story.
However, the person who took her away from Silvano remained mysterious. If it was a vampire, then Serena and Dominique would do their best to find him or her. They wanted to punish that person.
The two ladies were still having a catching-up when Dylan arrived. He was wearing a disguise, not letting Cedric\'s men feel his presence.
Serena already told the bodyguards assigned in the back gate to let Dylan enter the mansion quietly. Dylan was still cautious and wary of Cedric\'s men.
Upon entering the mansion, Dylan saw the two ladies sitting on the couch. He called them right away.
"Mother… Sister?"
His voice interrupted the two women, making them turn in his direction. Stella\'s eyes lit up as soon as their gaze got connected. She felt elated to see Dylan.
Dylan also noticed the changes in Stella\'s expression the moment they had that eye-to-eye contact. For some unknown reason, he felt somehow familiar with her. But he couldn\'t remember when or where he met her before.
\'Well? Is this because of our twin bond? But it feels strange… very different from what I\'ve felt when I first saw Marceline.\' Dylan pondered to himself.
He traced his steps towards them. Serena immediately introduced them to each other. Both Stella and Dylan were silent. They were just staring into each other\'s eyes.
Seconds later, Dylan closed their gaps, hugging Stella. She was caught off guard by that sudden embrace coming from Dylan. But she liked it so she hugged him back.
Serena felt so happy observing her children. They finally got reunited after a long time!
"Can I see it?" Dylan asked her after breaking the hug. Stella was absentminded for a moment. She didn\'t know what he wanted to see.
Serena giggled after seeing the confusion in Stella\'s eyes. "He is referring to your birthmark." She explained to her.
Stella bobbed her head before turning around. Her back was now facing Dylan. Dylan raised her hair, checking her birthmark. It was indeed the same mark he had.
\'She is my sister… because of this mark…\' Dylan mumbled to himself. The proof was there but Dylan was still conflicted about it.
\'Damn. Why am thinking this way? I should be happy that we finally found her… my missing twin…\' Dylan scolded himself. He couldn\'t deny the fact that he felt some familiarity as well when he hugged her a while ago.
The three of them continued their conversation. They all talked about Stella and her experiences. Soon, Dominique arrived, joining them.
The family of four would have to stay up all night just to talk to each other. They wanted to grab this opportunity to get to know her more and spend more time with her.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Golden City, the vampires were having a special gathering. It was spearheaded by Victoria Bancroft.
They were having a party to celebrate the success of the first step of their plan. The werewolves took the bait, believing that they finally found the missing werewolf princess.
An elder who had a high rank in the clan approached Victoria. He was wondering how they were able to pull it off. Who was the impostor? How would she be able to convince that she was the missing werewolf princess? Was she a human, a werewolf, or a vampire? Victoria didn\'t reveal this information to them.
"Lady Victoria, are you not afraid that they will notice that we sent a fake princess? How are you able to erase their suspicion? Is that woman a werewolf too?"
Victoria took a sip of her wine, flashing a mischievous smile.
"You have nothing to worry about. The person we sent there is very capable. All I can say is… she is very familiar with the Werewolf King, Queen, and the Prince. They won\'t be easily noticed that she\'s fake," Victoria confidently said, reassuring him.
"Does it mean she is also a werewolf? A werewolf deceiving her Alpha and Luna?" The elder sounded very surprised.
Victoria let out a soft giggle before shaking her head. "There is no way we will entrust this mission to a werewolf. That woman is a vampire… a vampire who is close to the Silvano Clan, serving them for a long time."
