Chapter 200 - Secret Crush

The Archdemon of Sloth

***************************

Sloth regrettably informed her but he gave her a curious smile at the same time, "My brothers would agree on the schedule of your wifely duties by tomorrow and my wild guess was either they take turns daily, weekly, or monthly."

Lune's mouth fell open as she gasped, shaking her head in disbelief.

Amused at her denial, Sloth continued in a slow smile, "You are an official wife of theirs since you are mated by blood and you tied cords with each other. You should expect that already."

Bending his legs, Sloth twisted and turned under her.

Lune had reinforced her weight on top of him in return.

Her delicate wrists were as strong as iron, pinning him like a butterfly.

Sloth writhed once again but this time he thrust his left shoulder with all his might.

His sister-in-law didn't mean to free his left arm.

When he pulled the long wooden stick from her and threw it aside, Lune's golden eyes had widened in panic

With rasping breaths, Lune did her best to hold him down by force but Sloth had predicted her next move.

In a calculating motion, he waited for the perfect time to stretch one leg and wrapped them around her waist, pulling her down with him and successfully maneuvering her.

Sloth wasn't a fighter but he had closed his eyes and sighed with relief.

He smirked.

He had her where he wanted her.

He thought that Lune would struggle to fight and resist him as they switched positions.

Sloth had pinned his sister-in-law this time around.

Clawing his muscular arms, Lune's arms suddenly dropped to the sides.

The broken glass shards had penetrated her ivory skin.

Sloth was fascinated by how this fledging Archdemon had healed as fast as his.

Turning her head sideways, Lune's left cheek was pressed to the floor as she peered towards the thunderstorm outside the window.

The loud pitter-patter of the rain was a piece of melodious music in the background.

"Can you help my soul get back to the Vampire Realm?" Lune murmured as she avoided eye contact.

"I don't know what is happening between you and my brothers." Sloth had reduced the pressure of his claws on her shoulders.

Tilting his head, he asked uncertainly, "What is your problem?"

"I was an Empress from the Vampire Realm." Shutting her eyes tight, Lune murmured shyly as if her pride was on the line as she asked for help, "The Archdemon of Envy wanted to possess my body in the Vampire Realm to be with the Vampire King because she used to be an ancient High Priestess who was in love with him and in exchange, I will be trapped here forever in Hell."

Sloth had noticed that Lune had glanced down and bitten her lip to curb her sniffs and whimpers.

Lune's eyelashes were like crescents on her pale and puffy face, covering her unshed tears that threatened to fall.

"Of course, you will be trapped in Hell." Sloth moved one hand on her throat so that he could scratch his chin in confusion.

His eyebrows narrowed, "You turned into an Archdemon and your husbands are here."

"No!"? Lune's voice broke in denial as she glared at him.

When their eyes met, her eyes had turned red.

Sloth couldn't help it but he lightly stroked her face and wiped away her tears.

Sensing the lady's distress, he asked in a soothing tone. "Why do you hesitate in the face of intimacy with your Archdemon husbands?"

Pinching her lips together, Lune circled the wrist on her neck with both of her hands and sought to get his hand off her.

It was a mistake to let his guard down so he? restrained her shoulders with both of his hands again.

Halting, she rested her hands on her sides and sighed, "I have a husband at the Vampire Realm, Sloth."

Sloth's eyes widened at her revelation. "Huh?"

Sloth was at a loss for words but he managed to utter, "That is so confusing."

Shaking his head in disbelief, he let that sink into his addled brain this time instead of just passing through his ears. "Can you repeat that again?"

Lune acquiesced, "I have a husband in the Vampire Realm."

"Who did you bond with first?"? Sloth was perpetually confused, "Was it this Vampire King or my Archdemon brothers?"

"No." His sister-in-law shook her head vigorously and for some strange reason, he found that cute.

Baphomet!

He needed to get himself together.

He didn't want any females!

He wasn't about to beg his sister-in-law to bond with him since she already had Ravin and Luxen attached to her.

Sloth wouldn't mess up an already messed-up relation that even the Archdemon of Envy was fucking with Luxen!

He was so lost in his thoughts that the last thing he heard from Lune was," You know that Gluttony had been gone for a while, right?"

"I was busy sleeping that I was late to the latest gossip in the Seven Circles of Hell."He replied smoothly and he smiled at that small achievement.

Sloth might be slow and his mind might float around most of the time but he could be attentive if he tried.

"This Archdemon had possessed my husband, the Vampire King, and bonded with me by blood." Lune began and he gave her a steady nod. "When I exorcised him out of the Vampire King's body, the mating bond split into two and a part of me was bonded into Ravin and my husband. So I am tied between the two of them. Luxen came into the picture and tricked me to drink his blood by offering to quench my thirst. I exchanged blood with him."

Sloth's panicked eyes had started to ricochet to different directions when he lost the trail of their conversation.

He didn't understand it anymore as Luna droned on, "The bastard had unwittingly tied a silver cord to my soul and now I am stuck with them."

"Are you listening to me?"

She quizzed him as she snapped a finger in front of his face, making sure he was still catching up.
