Archdemon Empress Luna

'It might be an uphill battle but if you don't want to fight for and my heir, I'm going to make you.'
'So, feisty. I like that.' Luna can sense his amusent and her cheeks turned heated in chagrin.
Luna didn't skip a beat. 'This isn't the ti to jest with , husband.'
He turned her head and gave her an intense stare. 'As long as you promised that you wouldn't pay attention to the Archdemon Familiars and any one from Queen Morgan's Cadre, that would be enough for .'
That was another subtle warning.
Luna shook her head and brushed it off in hopes to tone down Apollyon's overwhelming aura emanating over his head like a scattered and broken purple halo.
'You are incorrigible. How many tis have I told you that no n in their right mind would steal a pregnant woman from another man—much less a mate to the Vampire King?' She rattled on.
Her husband had told her many tis that she was stubborn, and recalling that made her purse her lips in displeasure.
Who was more stubborn between them now? ? 'Not every man we will et throughout our lifeti will be after . I'm not that much of a prize that n needed to get their hands on.'
"Luna. You are my prize. My only mate. A valuable one." Apollyon murmured, and she could only blink, wondering why he spoke out loud for everyone to hear.
Queen Morgan heard that, and she slowed down to eavesdrop so more to which her husband wouldn't allow.
There was a few tense minutes of silence before Luna replied to Apollyon, 'Yes and only a man who does not respect himself and other people will try to co between us and break us apart. Only Archdemons are crazy enough to do that but even my familiars are under my thumb.'
'You forgot that Lilith had summoned the Archdemon of Lust in the Material Realm.'
'We are not tied to each other by blood since our cord was already cut.'
'Luxen is as insane as Lilith.' Apollyon sharp response felt like a quick slice of a double-edged sword. 'I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to steal? you away from while everyone is distracted with this god damned fruit.'
'That is why you, Ravin and Sloth are here to protect . It's three against one, husband, and the good thing is neither did Lilith and Luxen know that I have made Ravin and Sloth my Archdemon Familiars.' Luna's lips curved upward. 'They are our dark horses. If Luxen launched a surprise attack on us, catching them off guard will turn the tables and give us the advantage.'
Luna caught Queen Morgan looking over her shoulder from the corner of her eye, and she gave her a small smile.
She must have thought that she was subtle when their eyes t.
Luna shrugged and jutted her chin in confidence.
'All we have to do is find that Tree of the Four Seasons? here in the Fall Courts before Luxen does sothing stupid.' Her husband agreed. 'Should I try and charm Queen Morgan to aid us then?'
Her smile tightened as she gave his vibrant Prussian Blue a murderous look. 'Say that again I would kick? your behind? so hard that you will return all the way back to the Vampire Realm next week.'
Apollyon chuckled darkly as they continued to walk the empty corridors.
Queen Morgan stopped and turned around to regard them. She looked so regal with her hands clasped together. "Is sothing funny about the Fall Courts, Vampire King?"
"I apologize, Queen Morgan." Apollyon nodded at Luna quietly before shifting his gaze to the Queen of the Fall Courts, "There is nothing funny."
Apollyon glanced around the coral walls of the palace and the beautiful tapestries as if it was more interesting than talking to Queen Morgan itself, "I just want to laugh to see if I broke a rule about making noises here."
The Queen looked her over once and averted her gaze afterwards, saying, "There is no such rule, Vampire King."
"Nobody? laughs around the Autumn Queen for no apparent reason especially if everyone was silent the whole ti--except you, Your Highness." Soone from the back said.
Unfortunately,? her husband was too unbothered to turn his head to glower at? Jora, the blond Fae with golden wings who was one of the Queen's protectors.
At least, Apollyon acknowledged that he heard him clearly by saying, "Well, at least I made history in Queen Morgan's Courts. Though, I admit this is the first ti that I have been here in behalf of the Vampire? Realm."
"What do you think so far about the Kingdom?" The Queen asked.
He tilted his head at her as he clutched Luna's fingers, "Beautiful but it's not sothing I would like to own for myself if that is what you are asking."
The Autumn Queen was amused as she let out a husky laugh. "It's good that you know your place, Vampire King. So, you are serious of forming an alliance with us, Empress." Then, her golden gaze fell on Luna, and she found it alarming that she could correctly see her clearly despite the fox mask,? "I wonder for what reason, though. Who do you need to defeat that you require our help?"
Luna stepped forward and leaned closer to the Queen without releasing her grip on Apollyon's hand. "I was supposed to explain more the instant all of us sat down on the Council Room but to give you an idea, I will tell you that we need your help in destroying an Archdemon."
With one hand settled the corner of her mouth, she whispered, "Before that, we need your help in locating a mythical garden. Are you familiar with the Tree of the Four Seasons?"
"Hmm.." The Queen pursed her lips before adding, "I should have known that this place is what you are looking for."
