Newest Chapter For Highest Tier (August 2021)

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

Archdemon Empress Luna

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

"I have pulled the sketches on the parchments for our scrutiny." Xerxes began. "I am surprised to see they were portraits of Apollyon and the two Archdemons."

Arctic silence followed Xerxes' statement as all of them stared at him in disbelief.

Princess Ourania had drawn past sketches of the Vampire King, the Archdemon of Gluttony and Sloth before she even met them at the Summer Courts?

How?

Luna looked away from the shapeshifter as her gaze ricocheted to Ravin's golden eyes before he raised an eyebrow at Apollyon.

Her mind refused to process that information because of how impossible it was.

Now, she was afraid to look at them and see if they were real.

So, the Goddess Hecate was right about Princess Ourania being the oracle who would guide them to find the Tree of the Four Seasons.

However, the Summer Princess failed the Underworld Goddess' mission because of her involvement with Hephaestus.

Their secret affairs bore fruit in the form of Princess Sapphire who would also help them in their future journey to avoid demonic possessions in the Material Realm.

It would also benefit Luna to lead this undertaking herself and get rid of the Archdemon of Envy inside her physical vessel.

Everyone's eyes—except for Sloth and Princess Sapphire—were on Xerxes as he stood over the laid-out faded yellowish parchments.

They were so old and fragile due to the cracks at the sides that the one who had touched them must handle them with care.

The Archdemon of Gluttony's limbs froze as his gaze fell landed on the smallest of Princess Ourania's artworks.

She glanced at the Vampire King who gave him a questioning stare.

It was an effective diversion to the Archdemon's suppressed temper.

Like his Master, Luna can simply tell his seething Familiar to stop persecuting the heavy boulders and the stone walls inside their rock shelter since they did nothing wrong to him.

Xerxes had successfully caught Ravin's attention!

His breathing slowed as he uncoiled the tension on his muscles.

Then, he rested his arms on his side.

Yet, she appreciated the fact that at least, those boulders weren't aimed at her or her husband even if it was clear as day that they were the reason that their conversations had led to his relapse.

As she witnessed Ravin loosen up,? Luna didn't realize how stiff she was when she closed her eyes, heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed her posture.

When she caught herself doing that, she opened her eyes in alarm.

She wondered if some of the emotions she felt were also dependent on her Familiar's mood.

That can't be!

The notion alone made her legs weak.

It might destroy her autonomy and this Master-and-Familiar relationship will affect her in the long run.

Nevertheless, Luna was Ravin's Master.

He was a mere Archdemon Familiar but his volatile nature can still scare her when there was no need to be.

Sloth's whims can surprise her, yes.

However, Luna could already anticipate them compared to Ravin's capriciousness…or was it because her mind had spiraled into confusion when she found out that Ravin had loved her for real and unfortunately, this time she could feel it?

Oh, goddess!

The Archdemon bastard can't fall in love with her.

What he offered wasn't pure like her husband.

What if the Vampire King found out that Ravin wasn't merely taunting him with their blood bond to infuriate him but rather he was speaking of his real desires to be with her?

Her hands trembled in disbelief and her husband didn't miss a single thing about her.

'Luna. Your mind is a chatterbox and your hands are shaking as well.' He looked at her as his blue eyes darkened into a deadly stare, 'You think too much but I can't make sense of it.'

'No. You don't have to make sense of it.' Luna pressed her lips together as she gave her husband strong eye contact while they talked to the mind link.

She found herself ridiculous!

She was an Archdemon herself and her husband was at her side, ready to protect her from danger with his thick and transparent barriers.

He was always there—always prepared to defeat their enemies--with his large hand interlocked in hers.

Her hand flew to her heart that her palm could feel every thump of her heart.? 'Let's see the paintings, shall we?'

'I am in control. I am in control over Ravin.' Luna reminded herself. 'I am invincible.'

'I only caught the name, Ravin.' Apollyon told her and Luna controlled any slight reaction on her face that could affirm his speculation.

This wasn't the time to ruin her relationship with Apollyon when the Archdemon Familiars had sown serious mistrust among their group.

'Now, don't lie to me and tell me what you think about your Archdemon Familiar right now.' He tilted his head and gave her a penetrating glance as if that would give him complete access after she blocked him out from her more exclusive ideas. 'Your thoughts about him shouldn't contaminate our mind link.'

'I will only tell you one thing, husband. If the Archdemon of Gluttony claimed that he loved me again, don't believe any of it no matter what.' Luna replied. 'Archdemons aren't capable of taking love seriously as we do. His pronouncement shouldn't protect you that much. They use that as a weapon and a tool to use the woman they desired.' Even if this was a lie, Apollyon had to remember this so that Ravin could never incite him to violence especially if he was pumped up for a fight with the tiniest provocation. 'It was a proverbial carrot he dangled on me thinking I would be stupid enough to be tempted but I won't be. Ravin will not be a threat to us unless we allow him.'

Luna decided if she should think about that twice when he saw Princess Ourania's sketch of Ravin the first time.

The Archdemon of Gluttony had had blue angel wings behind his back.

It was the same blue feather on his necklace.
