Archdemon Empress Luna

"That's what you are supposed to do, Your Highness."

Luna clenched her fists, feeling somewhat defensive.

'What did he mean that that was what she was supposed to do?' She thought with gritted teeth.

Cederic might not have known this but she was tempted to do just that.

Yet, she still have to live her life for their children.

She chuckled for a good minute and the sudden switch from indignation to amusement made Cederic's eyes widen and his spine to straighten.

Unnerved, Cederic clenched his jaw and inconspicuously settled a hand at the sword on his waist.

Luna folded her arms over her chest and jutted her chin.

"You already know I'm not good with orders since the first time we met, Cederic. You can't tell me what to do. Remember who I am. " She assumed an imperial tone.

As if sensing the ire from her aura, Cederic raised both his hands in a placating gesture. "Of course, Your Highness."

He lowered his head and bent his upper body into an exaggerated bow.

When he raised his head to stare at her, Cederic flashed her a sincere smile which revealed the dimple on his right cheek. "In all honesty, I had no problem with you looking for Prince Ravin so you don't have to put your guard up, Your Highness. Prince Ravin ordered me to return to the Castle just in case you were looking for him."

She narrowed her eyes at him.

Luna still couldn't get over the fact that Cederic was now calling her Archdemon Familiar a Prince.

What would that make her if every aristocrat in this Realm realized the son of the Queen of the Autumn Courts was her personal servant?

Well, she didn't want to dwell on that.

Luna nodded her head at Cederic once.

"Take me to him." Relieved at the change in his mood, Luna approached him immediately and stood next to him before facing her other Familiar. As she turned, her dark purple cloak floated in the breeze for a moment before gravity pulled the hem down. "Sloth, you have been complaining the whole ride that you are tired, didn't you?" She suppressed a smirk before shooing him with a dismissive hand. "Go home now."

She glanced up at Cederic beside him and his grey eyes bled to black when he met her gaze.

Then, she turned her attention towards Sloth. "Apollyon's general will take me there."

"After hugging you and comforting you, how could you ditch me so easily?" Sloth said under his breath as he turned his back on them to search for the stallion's lead rope.

Luna shouted behind him in a teasing manner. "Did you say something, Sloth?"

"I'll take my leave." Sloth snapped back.

His shout was less louder than Luna but still, it didn't fail to amused her.

When he faced them again, Sloth's pink lips turned into a pout as he clutched the stallion's lead rope in his hand. "Hope you have a good night sleep after talking to Ravin."

Luna saw a familiar silhouette floating in the night sky with the full moon as his background.

From her perspective down below, the moon seemed bigger and brighter right now even as the dawn approached.

She witnessed the leathery scales of his demon wings flapping loudly in the silence glitter from the glow of the silver moonlight which caused the heavens to appear midnight blue.

It appeared like Ravin was incessantly monitoring his demonic beasts and low-ranking demon servants from his Legion, making sure that they were doing a great job with repairing the damaged structures in the Vampire Kingdom despite working non-stop.

Luna soared towards Ravin without asking permission from Cederic.

As she abandoned the non-winged vampire on the ground, his rough swears drifted through the wind and reach her ears but she simply rolled her eyes and ignored them.

She hadn't even reached Ravin yet but it appeared like he already saw her coming when he asked her, "What's the matter, Amare?"

Still dissatisfied with the distance between them, Ravin fluttered his demon wings faster to propel himself forward and met her halfway.

"Are you sure you don't know why I'm here, Ravin?" Luna said as they neared, circling around each other as if they were playing a game of tag.

The strong winds caused the silver strands of her silver hair to whip against her face.

When Ravin paused in front of her, she decided to stop playing and hovered in plas well.

"Let me guess." His golden eyes twinkled against the tanned complexion of his handsome face. "Because you miss me and you want me home immediately?"

Wrong.

Luna snorted.

She would never get used to this absurdity.

Unfortunately, she knew of another ridiculous thing that should beat the record.

She wasn't known for beating around the bush when it came to this injustice.

"I heard from Sloth that you're trying to kidnap women."

"Ah."

The mono-syllabic sound was rather short, dry and empty.

The awkward silence was a few seconds too long.

"Don't do it." Luna added quickly, her words spilling over the other.

O"Afraid I'll be devoted with someone else?"

Ravin's usual brilliant golden eyes seemed pale right now that it made her slightly nervous.

Her Archdemon Familiar might be three heads taller than her but she shouldn't find Ravin intimidating at all.

"You and Sloth are free to take lovers that suits you as long as you don't force them and you are still able to following my orders." She said faintly.

"Well, I don't know about Sloth." Ravin's eyes flashed with warning as if he wanted her to quit talking about this. Nevertheless, he still forced himself to continue, "But if I want to have another lover, I don't want to be bound to you...unless you get rid of our soul-binding contract."

"If I did, would you choose other women?"

He swallowed hard.

"I could. But I could always get back to you. You are still my mate, afterall."
