Vampire King Apollyon

"Then, if I summon an Archdemon Familiar, wouldn't that land me in a deeper trouble?"
'Of course, it would!' Nostrils flaring, Apollyon's eyes protruded from avoiding his volatile nature for the nth time that night as he glowered at Luna. 'This was obvious! It was clear as day!
But you know what infuriated Apollyon the most?
It was the fact that Luna sounded like she considered the decision of summoning one.
Apollyon glanced at her earlier, but he had to double-take when he heard that straight out of her mouth.
It shocked him to the core as if someone had turned his stomach into hard ice.
Nevertheless, Apollyon waited patiently for her next words so that he could justify his future outbursts.
Nobody can blame him.
Apollyon was tired of all the bullshit the Archdemons had put him and her wife through.
He wasn't just about to support the idea of bringing the Archdemons who hurt her and played with her life like they were the best of friends!
Why would he even summon the bastard who shared his body and made his life miserable for millennia?
"This is preposterous!" Apollyon thundered.
This wasn't a damned fairy tale!
Must he and his wife's story had to experience an epic tragedy all their life to humour these bored gods and goddesses?
Apollyon was perfectly aware that the world was unfair ever since the day he was born but this… This was getting to him.
He was exhausted.
Apollyon managed a low growl, "Don't even think about doing it, wife."
Luna tugged at her silver hair as she gathered her knees closer, rocking back and forth.
"But what about our baby, Apollyon? Lilith is taking Leo as a hostage! The ghost already told us that the bitch is stunting her growth." She spat.
"It was all because of Lilith's spell that she created with the help of her fellow Archdemon. The enchantment she used to make your physical body as her vessel was attached to your baby's life force, and she was able to do that because of a fertility spell. That is why she got a hold of your offspring and attached herself to your flesh with success."
Surprised, Luna stopped sobbing and raised her head to stare at the ghost, "A f-fertility s-spell?" Then, she hiccuped as she wiped her face with her hands, "With the h-help of an A-archdemon?"
With clenched teeth, Apollyon demanded,? "Was Luxen the Archdemon who helped her with the fertility spell?"
The quiet tension, which lasted for a few seconds, was enough.
The ghost bowed and responded with mock-gravity, "The Empress already knew the answer."
Apollyon's jaw tightened to a rigid line as his eyes darted to his wife, whose cheeks had flushed crimson.
"Was this the reason why that bastard pretended to be me?" He asked quietly. Apollyon knew the source of his wife's chagrin. "--so that he could insert his seed inside you and activate the fertility spell Lilith had given to the Archdemon of Lust?"
For the first time, Luna looked at him in the eye and never averted her gaze when they talked about this. "Yes, husband. I told you that I didn't seduce him. I wasn't interested in Luxen at all, so he pretended to be you so that they could set their? evil plans in motion."
"The Goddess Hecate couldn't tell the full effects of the fertility spell. She couldn't see the future in its entirety. Only fragments. Your life records in the Material Realm had been restricted. And the Fates only revealed that the Archdemon inside you would start the end of the world. Lilith will not be able to kill the baby, but she might weaken it to the point that she might have disabilities or impairments if ever it was strong enough to come out." Its explanation made Apollyon scowl.
He sat there with Luna, frozen and revolted at the thought of his heiress entering the Material Realm with abnormalities.
As a father, he wouldn't let that happen.
"Lilith wasn't just a co-owner of your vessel, Your Highness. She became your offspring's parasite. When she had gathered more strength from your baby, it will become a battle of who will have control of the reins when your vessel claimed both of your soul like hers. Your physical body can't even tell the difference if you switched."
Apollyon reached out for Luna's hand to anchor him to the present.
."Lilith was a bad actress before." He commented on breaking the tension. "If she takes over you, it will be easy to spot."
"She already made a mistake once." There was a casual softness in her voice as she placed her hand over his. "Lilith would be more careful this time if she wanted to avenge herself from the exorcism you have done. In her eyes,? you have betrayed her."
"We will make the necessary preparations."
Fisting her fingers on the coverlets from both fear and exhilaration, Luna's face looked grim yet determined as if she was ready to summon her own Archdemon? Familiar even if her entire being was against Hecate's suggestion. "Who did the Goddess Hecate recommend to be my Archdemon Familiar, messenger?"
"The Archdemon of Gluttony will do, Your Highness." The ghost suggested as it jumped up and down in excitement.
Apollyon's breathing was irregular before he yelled with gritted teeth, "No! Not that bastard who possessed me in the first place." Chest tight with fury, Apollyon had to climb out of bed and pulled Luna along with him, "This is stupid!"
The ghost appeared vaguely amused by his reaction. "Ravin will become Luna's familiar as Hecate's High Priestess. It was already arranged by the Goddess. He will follow whatever you tell her because you have acquired his true name. The son of the Fallen Angel is also your mate, and he will lead you to the Tree of Four Seasons."
"The Tree of the Four Seasons? The Summer Monarchs had mentioned this before." Luna broke quietly.
"It was the only way to get rid of Lilith. Eating the fruit will be the only way to get rid of her and stop the rest of the demonic legions she will bring over from possessing all the creatures in this Material Realm. "
