Archdemon Empress Luna

"Earlier, I have ordered your group to bathe in the truth elixir to test whether or not your intentions in the Autumn Courts are pure, and by some unexpected miracle, all of you had passed the test. Yet, something had bothered me for the whole duration that Ravi and Sloth are here." The Autumn Queen tried hard not to look at the people she was talking about as they sat on the chairs closest to her. "They clearly aren\'t humans and I doubt they are Fae."
"Now, I will be asking another specific query." Her golden eyes zeroed on Luna, "Are Ravin and Sloth, Archdemons?"
Luna blinked rapidly from Queen Morgan\'s question, but she should have seen this coming.
Queen Morgan didn\'t become the Queen of the Fall Courts if she was stupid.
She had picked up subtle hints from them and deduced correctly without heavy evidence.
How did she figure that out quickly?
Luna could only squeeze Apollyon\'s hand because she had no idea how to respond to such truth.
She stood there, frozen in shock, as her husband straightened her posture.
The Autumn Queen\'s sharp sense had caught him off guard, as well.
Queen Morgan must have paid close attention to Ravin and Sloth\'s movements and sensing their auras even if she appeared like she wasn\'t looking.
Both of her Archdemon Familiars were seated next to her across Luna and Apollyon\'s seats for easy observation.
Luna\'s eyes widened slightly when it finally hit her.
It was a simple trick.
Was it her belief that a powerful Queen from the Fall Courts couldn\'t see past their glamour?
Her wild guess was the Queen\'s method to salvage her pride.
What other creatures in this Material Realm could outsmart an Ancient Queen from the Faerie Realm with their glamour?
The beings in her list were small, only consisting of what she thought were worthy opponents.
Beings who she thought were stronger than her.
Nevertheless, Luna and Apollyon must have given it away with their words and the nuance of their expressions since both Archdemon Familiars were silent in the Council Room most of the time, strictly answering questions if their name was mentioned while scribbling on their papyrus.
The chance to reveal themselves was all too rare.
Luna bit the inside of her lip.
Did their strange indifference to the discussion make Queen Morgan suspicious—as if Ravin and Sloth couldn\'t be bothered by the dark prophecy mentioned by the Three Fates because it didn\'t concern them?
Archdemons were cold and heartless.
Death didn\'t matter to them because they were strong immortal spirits who could return to Hell to regenerate if destroyed.
They had little to no weakness except demon and angel blades.
From an outsider\'s point of view, it appeared like Ravin and Sloth were only forced to join their group, and that was true.
The Goddess Hecate had told her to use Ravin, specifically, for whatever reason.
He was summoned in the Material Realm and Sloth to protect her and help them fulfill Hecate\'s mission, but deep inside, they couldn\'t care less whether she lived or died even if Ravin claimed they were Archdemon Mates.
They were tasked to keep her safe from Lilith\'s control while the rest of their group worked hard to acquire the divine fruits from the Garden of the Four Seasons.
Her Archdemon Familiars couldn\'t prevent her death from childbirth except if she drank Ravin\'s blood… which she wouldn\'t allow.
Her pulse sped up in anger, and heat flashed through her stiff body.
She had been touched by the Archdemon of Lust so she wouldn\'t humiliate her husband by letting him taste her Familiar\'s blood when he drank from her.
Now that she thought about it, Ravin and Sloth\'s countenance throughout the council discussion was pretty bland,? even if the agony of sacrificing her own life to let both of the babies live made her want to cry and scream in despair.
She gave the back of Ravin\'s head an irritated glance.
Ravin talked so much about loving her and stealing her from her husband when the Archdemon wasn\'t even capable of feeling simple empathy.
\'What a funny clown!\' Luna sneered in her thought.
Luna didn\'t know what to do with this parasitic baby.
The Autumn Queen spoke again when Luna nor Apollyon gave her more clues to sink her teeth into, "I would have known immediately? that the Vampire King is a half Fae with just one look… but I can\'t seem pinpoint your Kind." Now, Queen Morgan found the courage to make a show of surveying her Archdemon Familiars. Their muscles tensed with alertness while they remained seated. "Ravin and Sloth weren\'t good at pretending to be human grandfathers from? the way they stood straight and the way they move with precision."
Luna frowned as she mused, \'Weren\'t good at pretending? You forgot that we have fooled you completely.\'
"Aside from the Fair folk, the only magical creatures who are masters of glamour and illusions are Demons. Keep in mind that? the truth will greatly influence my decision. I will not be held accountable by the effects of my alchemist\' true serum if you lie." She warned. "If you tell me that both of you are Archdemons, I had no choice but to refuse an alliance between the Vampire Realm and the Autumn Courts. We don\'t want to be allied with? double dealing fiends."
"You are an Autumn Fae, Queen Morgan. I bet you realize that your kind is infamous for double dealing in the entire Faerie Realm." Apollyon said flatly.
The Autumn Queen\'s pursed her lips as she regarded Luna, "I will not compel you? to take those disrespectful words back but I will promise that we will be dedicated in helping you find the Garden of the Four Seasons without the alliance. Do you accept this agreement?"
Luna gave the Queen a small nod as a sign of acceptance.
"Ravin. Sloth." Her voice raised to command them. "Tell Queen Morgan who both of you really are and introduce yourself."
"I am Ravin the Archdemon of Gluttony, Your Highness."
"I\'m Sloth."? He admitted lazily.." Archdemon who wants peace… peaceful sleep."
