Vampire King Apollyon

—but if we failed with the mission and there was nothing we can do with Lilith, I think it would be better if? you would annihilate me along with her." Luna said softly as she allowed her arms to drop. "I can finally see the reason why Hecate insisted that I ate the fruit from the Four Seasons to purify me of evil influence because there might be a chance that Lilith will still stay with me."

He was appalled that no sound came out when he opened his mouth.

Nostrils flaring,? Apollyon abruptly pursed his lips as he expressed this deep-rooted anger in his countenance.

She let out a? short gasp and averted her gaze, glancing down at where their bodies connected, instead.

He was silent for a few seconds as he focused on his every breath.

It was better to dwell on this rather than being furious at his wife and say something he might regret.

When he finally calmed down, Apollyon said with all the patience he could muster,? "Can you stop this line of thought, Luna!" Yet, he couldn't help but snap at her out of frustration. "For the love of the gods." He released a string of curses that put pirates to shame. "You don't need to sacrifice yourself when there is no need to. You might be an idiot but I didn't marry a martyr." One hand clasped her jaw as he forced her to look at him, "If you are still determined to die, who do you think would control your Archdemon Familiars now." He snorted, "Me?"

"All of us Archdemons will be sent to Hell—including Lilith." Her fists clenched and unclenched as she continued, "—and I will find a way to return into this Realm without a physical vessel."

"—if you can."? Apollyon cut her off with a snarl.

" I wouldn't stop until I get what I want. I will remain strong until the moment I give birth to Leo." Her tone was resolute and full of power.

Apollyon can tell that she was serious and that even pissed him off more.

His rage over his beloved's tactless words threatened to give him a headache.

The pressure he felt was akin to hot lava being poured all over his head.

He shook his head and sighed when she said, "If? I die from this struggle, you must endure the pain of losing a mate and live, Apollyon. Live for the sake of our heir. You must take care of her in the Vampire Realm for me." Tears pricked her eyes and Apollyon couldn't bear to look at her. He longed for the day where his beloved will never know what sorrow felt.? "Can you promise that?"

It was time to change this subject.

It wasn't like her.

She already thought that they would lose.

Apollyon wanted his beloved Empress to simmer in anger rather than turn into this helpless woman in front of him, wishing for her own death by sacrificing her life for the 'greater good.

He didn't mean that kind of anger that runs through her bloodstream like poison and cloud her judgment.? Apollyon thought about the kind of anger that motivated her. Something that would make her act toward something to achieve their goal.

"Where are you, Luna?" Luna eyes widened, taken aback. "Where was the lady he loved that would never give up? The one who had an immense fighting spirit? The obsession to win at all cost?" He asked in a cool emptiness as he remembered the past they shared.

Biting her lower lip, Luna kept silent as she tried hard not to cry.

Deep down, he knew Luna can be petty sometimes that she just had to channel that and not hold it back just because she was pregnant.

Maybe, she was having a hard time finding herself recently because was put under so much stress with Lilith, the Archdemons, Princess Ourania and the Summer Monarchs in general that it was taking a toll on her mental, emotional and physical well-being. But that didn't mean they were going to fail Hecate's mission.

It wasn't like she was an oracle that can see the future so she had no right to tell him that his mate was going to die.

It was selfish of her to decide that by herself.

They must focus on the solution rather than the problem and achieve a win-win outcome no matter what.

"Well, since you already pissed me off, I would also like to tell you something as my revenge. " Anger was more useful than sadness and despair. He will fight fire with fire. Hopefully, that will help her cope up if she discharged all the toxic tension in her limbs and calm her nerves. "Lilith almost—"

That caught her undivided attention. "She almost what, Apollyon?" Luna tensed as her dilated pupils darken in suspicion, "Tell me!"

Apollyon paused and she decided to fill in the blank. "Did she—" but he wouldn't let her.

"She tried to seduce me when I couldn't—"

"That bitch tried to seduce you?" Luna demanded angrily, "What else did she do?"

"Lilith forced your lips? on mine and ground your quim against my erection. I couldn't stop her because of her Archdemon Magic." He replied bluntly.

"That bitch." She muttered. Breathing hard, she clawed at his shoulders as the narrowed slits of her eyes similar to a snake's glittered at him, "Did? you like it, husband?"

Apollyon froze.

His brows furrowed in confusion, "What kind of question is that?"

"I asked you if you liked it?" Luna gritted out and she looked like she was ready to bite his head off.

What?

Apollyon wondered if someone hit her in the head.

Her hostile gaze was like blades when he clarified, " Of course not. I am disgusted by her actions towards me by using you but I will never be disgusted of your body itself."

"Good." Luna's tone abruptly changed into a huskier one.

Apollyon saw the right moment when her face turned ashen and pallid when it changed into Lilith's.

That was an indication that it wasn't his beloved anymore.

"Lilith." Apollyon said as he used his Fae Magic to keep her in place, "How did you manage to take the reins of Luna's consciousness?"
