Archdemon Empress Luna

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

No matter how many times she denied to the Head Guard's query about owning Ravin and Sloth as a part of her secret Harem, the determined Summer Faerie would regard her with intense scrutiny as if staring deep inside her soul would compel her to tell the truth when what she told her, in fact, was the truth.

Why was the Head Guard acting like she smuggled these men by unlawful means for her sexual satisfaction?

He even covertly implied that her husband was the real owner of Ravin and Sloth.

Her husband's hand lifted and clasped her hand to his while her other hand clutched at her skirts.

As the man caressed the back of her dainty hand with his thumb, Apollyon's attention was on hers the whole time as he eyed her with deep concern underneath those Prussian Blues.

Sometimes, he glanced down at her steps to make sure that she wouldn't trip.

He made sure he would catch her if she fell down the stairs the second time.

The first time was brutal.

She could have lost her baby at that time if that Dark Fury, a renegade from Hecate's Furies in the Underworld, chose to kill her like what Princess Ourania ordered instead of healing her physical vessel heal and helping Lilith take over.

She fixed her gaze on the broad backs of the last pair of the guards in front of them while she and Apollyon were sandwiched by her Archdemon Familiars at her back like they were breathing down their necks.

It was a miracle a turned Vampire like her was still alive today since her un-dead heart was severely damaged.

She was grateful that the Goddess Hecate protected her. Luna never thought her husband would be more paranoid than her

. She gave him some awkward, occasional glances as well.

"Be careful of our baby this time, wife. We were lucky that Caelano made a selfish choice in the first place to save your physical vessel.--"? Apollyon peered at her baby bump between his long sooty lashes. "—including Leo."

Then, he raised his chin to meet her gaze, scanning her face earnestly for a few seconds. "Once at the dance floor… You said you needed to work undercover to investigate. Twice was at the royal

infirmary when you sought an audience with my mother--"

Luna exhaled a soft sigh.

"I didn't know she was that dangerous, Apollyon."

She vehemently recalled what happened that morning when Apollyon's crazy mother pushed her and pierced her with the long crystal lance from back to front.

Too much vampire blood cascaded from her chest and to the front of her gown while she compressed her quivering hands on the wounds to stop it. She knew that her Princess Ourania hated her guts, but she hadn't figured out that it was to that extent. "I thought she would insult me with words. That I could handle. Words can't hurt me unless they are spells."

"You saw what she was capable of at the royal infirmary when she threatened Xerxes to scare Princess Sapphire."

"I did," Luna replied as her hackles rose from the perceived accusation. "I thought I could defend myself from—"

"You thought that you are invincible?"

She didn't respond.

"This is the common mistake when you are handed a power you aren't prepared for." Eyes of Prussian Blue asked her with a quiet calm.

He didn't sound angry, but it was the scariest thing as if he could see right through her act. "Don't just rely on it, beloved, and underestimate your opponent. They have something under their sleeves."

"Yes, we have."Sloth answered, and Luna's brows almost reached up to her hairline in surprise.

Frowning, she looked over her shoulder, and she found him rubbing his chin in contemplation. "Hmm. Why did it feel like it? was a sin to hear this hush-hush conversation."

"Sloth, don't speak for half an hour." She commanded in a whisper.

When the Archdemon opened his mouth, no sound came out, and he pouted at her.

"REEEEEEEEEEE~" The whelp Ravin was holding in his arms screeched in excitement.

"It was Caelano's dark magic placing us in a sort of parallel dimension." Luna squeezed his hand and explained, pleading for mercy as he placed her on the spot. "I was too anxious that I couldn't focus."

"I am not scolding you, but you have to be careful with your actions. You are also responsible for Leo's life." Then, he told her bluntly, "You are a mother now, do you understand?"

Her shoulders stiffened. "Yes."

"I will never let you out of my sight again. You would have to kill me first to get rid of me."He inclined his head at her,? "Are we clear?"

She didn't respond.

Her hurt pride felt like tiny needles pricked her heart.

"Beloved. Answer me."

"Yes, husband."

Ravin placed a hand over her shoulder as if he was comforting her from her husband's ire.

With bared teeth, Apollyon hit his breaking point, and he finally snapped, shoving the Archdemon against the wall in an instant. "Beloved, tell your slave not to touch you like that!"

The Head Guard paused the flights of stairs, turned his head and glanced up at them.

The Archdemon of Gluttony chuckled darkly as if he expected this violent reaction from her husband.

This bastard clearly knew what he was doing.

"Ravin, you aren't allowed to touch me," Luna declared as she moved closer to her husband and wrapped an arm around his waist to soothe him. "You and Sloth will not cause trouble while we speak to the Vinca Innkeeper, alright?"

When all of them had descended reach the landing, the mere presence of her two Archdemon Familiars behind her stirred unabashed curiosity among the? Summer Faeries at the tavern—especially the ladies who openly gawked at the men she was with.

Luna would admit that the Archdemon Princes were the epitome of perfection.

The gentlemen seated at their table paused their mugs of root beer right in the middle of toasting when they caught a glimpse of their bunch.
