Archdemon Empress Luna

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

"You killed her!" Luna exploded, and she was forced to release her Familiar when Apollyon's large hands clamped around her waist and physically remove her away from Sloth.

Her Familiar had the nerve to flash an innocent smile at him with blood-smeared lips shaped like a Cupid's bow.

He stood in front of her but not within choking distance since her husband made sure of that.

He stared at her straight in the eye since they were more or less of similar height.

"Paralyzed and dead are two different things." Sloth commented as he shifted his weight on his other foot and rested one hand on his hip while the other held his helm. "I made sure to hit all the pressure points."

Pressure points?

He gave Princess Ourania a glance of disinterest as if she was a mere carcass of a dead animal he couldn't be bothered to deal with.

Luna's gaze followed Sloth, and she gasped, grimacing at the poor sight.

"Prince Slo-an."

She couldn't even look at the bloody raw puncture wound at the back of her head.

How much more if she actually had to help overturn Princess Ourania to see if she was still alive?

Nevertheless, Luna shut her eyes tight before she could angle her body away, reminding herself that the madwoman deserved this. "Do you think she can recover from what you have done?!"

She couldn't draw near to Apollyon's mother in case she was truly dead because that image would haunt him for the rest of her life.

Her husband understood that she felt nauseous from all the spilt blood in the arena.

She was thankful that he stood like a warm living boulder behind her as her back was slightly pressed against his chest.

Fortunately, his broad shoulders were enough to cover Sloth's carnage.

"She should be grateful? that she was alive after hurting you, Empress."

Other people might think the carnage was a special work of art from the prideful way he behaved about what he did to Apollyon's mother.

Luna shook her head, feeling hopeless for her Familiars.

An Archdemon's mind really operated differently.

"I have made her debilitated for the rest of her life that she will wish she was dead. You told me to avenge you, Lune, and I fulfilled my mission."? His innocent smile, in contrast to that mischievous sparkle in his dark green eyes, never disappeared that Luna desired to knock it with a strong punch to the teeth as she scowled at him. "I want to have fun in the apiary tonight with? you."

She threw him a confused look.

Her ire vanished when Sloth's request sunk in.

"If you, please meet me there and grace me with your wonderful presence?"

"What do? you mean by that, demon?"

"Apollyon!"

'Don't expose their identity in front of the Summer Monarchs and the spectators!' Luna spoke to him through telepathy.

"I meant it as a curse!" Apollyon growled defensively.

"So the? mind link is very much present between mates." Ravin observed, and Luna shifted her attention from Sloth to his brother, "How come I didn't have the ability to talk to the Empress using this method? I can't feel Amare's emotions, either."

"It's a blank slate for you in here, Prince Rav." Apollyon tapped his forefinger to his temple as he stared hard at the Archdemon of Gluttony. "My wife only belongs to me. She was powerful enough to block you if you attempt to contact her through the mind link. In addition to that, you have lowered your status. So in her eyes, you aren't worthy of becoming her husband."

Ravin chuckled darkly, "Aren't you unworthy too? As long as I exist in this Realm, I still have a chance to steal her under your nose when I am so close to her."

Ravin attempted to pull her towards him, but she was quick enough to step backwards.

"Enough of this." She had to stop this exchange of insults before it could get worse! "Prince Rav, you should be careful of your next words if you don't want me to silence you."

"I have punished Princess Ourania accordingly, Vampire King. Can I have the Empress to myself at the apiary as my reward?" Sloth asked for the second time, not giving it up.

Her eyes widened at his shameless Familiar's audacity to say this in front of her husband. "I want to express how much I am enjoying my time here in the Summer Courts with her."

Now, she was sure that Sloth desired to die in the hands of the Vampire King if he kept testing his limits!

"Prince Sloan from the Kingdom of Ghouls. Not only did you behead Sir Tristan, ate the courtier's eyes like a savage, made my horrible mother paralyzed, and I am glad for what you did, but you wished to be alone with my Empress in the apiary?? Without me? Huh. You do have a death wish."

"Apollyon. You have to calm down." Taking a deep breath, Luna swallowed hard and tried to defend Sloth from her husband's wrath. "This… Prince is a bit childish! Don't think of him as a man, husband."

'The Familiar was not only slow, but he couldn't properly read the atmosphere.' She thought grudgingly.

You remember what he said at the apiary, right? The Prince told us that he isn't interested in women. He is interested in bees."

"I can attest that nothing happened between my brother and the Empress," Ravin said, and his attempt of helping wasn't helping at all. "I made sure of it."

"Oh, you did? Of course, you did." Luna looked over her shoulder to see her husband's face morph into astonishment than anger until it settled into a scowl. "What else have you done her while I was not with her?"

"I am her husband." Apollyon barely kept the growl out of her voice. "I will never leave her alone with psychopaths like the both of you."

Sloth grinned. "As if you weren't a psychopath like us--"

"I—" Her familiar was cut off by a harsh feminine whimper.

Something Luna thought was dead burst back into life.

"E-mpr-ess." It was Princess Ourania moaning in agony as her leg twitched. "I—m s—sorry."
