Archdemon Empress Luna

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

Yet, there was something else that made her mind uncomfortable and it needed to be addressed.

"Is there any way for me to wake my husband up?" She patted both her babies' backs gently as they laid with their stomach on her chest. "I feel sorry for him that he couldn't witness the birth of his daughter like he wanted to."

Her children's father had missed out on a lot of things.

The Vampire King would probably hate himself if he woke up and found out that he was too late.

"We have to wait for him to wake up, My Lady. Archangel Azrael said carefully and switched the subject right away. "If you don't mind, would you allow me to hold the silver-haired baby for you?"

"Yes. You can." Luna was still uncertain of the Archangel's motives. Nevertheless, she gave him him permission, hoping that he wouldn't make her regret it. "It's hard to carry two babies in my arms."

Luna cuddled Leonora for a while before she decided to hand her over to Archangel Azrael's capable arms.

All three members of her own family might belong in the Demon Race now but she still placed huge trust in this Archangel for helping her give birth.

"You're beautiful as always, Leonora." Archangel Azrael mumbled as he cradled her in subtle rocking motions.

The twin's adorable smile exposed the dimple in her round cheeks as if she had heard something that amused her.

Upon hearing the name of their child which she and Apollyon had decided, her eyes narrowed at the Archangel in confusion. "How did you know that we meant to give her that name?"

Archangel Azrael stared lovingly into Leo's eyes and kissed her forehead before answering. "She had the color of your hair. And her father's deep blue eyes."

Luna pursed her lips.

She wasn't satisfied at his evasive response at all.

The thin, silver-haired, newborn snuggled into the Archangel Azrael's warmth, turning her into a spoiled little vampire that didn't want to be put down, not even for a minute.

Just when they thought that Leonora had fallen asleep, she would let out an alarming scream every time the Archangel Azrael tried return her back to her mother's arms.

It wasn't like she was hurt or something terrible had occured yet the wail didn't fail to make a new mother paranoid.

"You know something, Archangel Azrael." Luna cocked her to the side as she observed how the Archangel of Death was treating her precious daughter. "You being here in the Emerald Room and helping me give birth isn't just a coincidence."

Not only that, Luna had speculated that the Archangels had fed her the fruit from the Garden of the Four Seasons since Archangel Ariel, the woman from Princess Ourania's painting, was here.

"This one is your child with the Vampire King." Archangel Azrael told her when he glanced at the babe he was holding.

Then, he leaned closer to her so that he could observe the other twin sleeping in her arms. "That girl is the spawn of the Archdemon of Lust. The color of her hair is lighter, almost close to white."

Luna was silent for a while.

"You are right." Luna glanced down and peered into the twin's large grey eyes. "She is the daughter I got after the bastard deceived me."

Archangel Azrael asked softly, "What are your plans for her?"

She cleared her throat before answering. "I will accept her as mine despite the tragic history behind her conception. She was the proof of the mistake I have made with the Archdemon of Lust. My sin. The living embodiment of the guilt and shame I felt on that fateful day Apollyon had looked at me after I told him the truth."

"This child carries my blood." Luna jutted her chin proudly. "And, that is enough of a reason for me to love her even if her presence triggered the haunting of my past. The only thing I couldn't fully control is how the Vampire King would treat her but I trust that my husband will do the honorable thing. That is, if he still considered me as his mate."

"As for Luxen, I wouldn't pin his crimes on our daughter." Her lips had curled in anger and she couldn't help it. Just mentioning that Archdemon's name drove her to violence. "I'd rather put all that time and energy in destroying him than blaming this faultless little one."

"The Vampire King had already avenged you. I helped him kill Luxen during the Archdemon Tournament." He informed her in a nonchalant attitude that sent shivers down her spine.

"What?" Luna glanced up to focus on his face. "Why are you doing this?"

He adjusted Leonora a little so that he could rest her small head on the crook of his neck.

"I wanted the Vampire King to fulfill his goals of becoming an Archdemon as a gift."

"No. You are misunderstanding me on purpose." She spoke with her teeth in forced restraint. "You aren't leaving me if you couldn't answer my question. Why did you help us, Archangel?"

He completely masked his features and assumed a blank expression. "It's too complicated to explain."

"I'm all ears." Luna retorted with a scowl.

Archangel Azrael's jaw was clenched, appearing like he was trying to piece all the thoughts in his head.

"I risked helping you despite losing some of my memories." He began. "It was a consequence of traveling time and space through angelic portals—"

Frustrated, Luna drew a deep inhale and released it before asking, "So, what you are saying is... I should just be grateful that you broke too many rules possible in the Heavenly Realms as an Archangel for my sake?"

"Not just for your sake. But for Leonora's. She is destined to be mine. After the duration of the punishment the Highest God had given me, I will collect her when I see her again. "
