Chapter 740 - Luxen\'s Legion

Newest Chapter for Highest Tier (October 2021)

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

Archdemon Empress Luna

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

"What do you mean, Queen Morgan—" She faltered for a few seconds and halted, allowing her unfinished question to hang awkwardly in the air.

Luna\'s heart fell to her stomach in distress.

She pursed her lips as her pale, trembling hand rested on her baby bump, hoping that the warmth she felt in her palm would soothe her frazzled nerves.

Despite the thick, knitted fabric separating her hand and the stretched skin of her abdomen, Luna was conscious of her baby—babies, she corrected—moving inside her womb. Her brows knitted in confusion.

Maybe, the distress she perceived was something else entirely.

Right now, a hundred butterflies seemed to flutter in her stomach.

During their journey to the Fall Courts, Luna had experienced hunger pangs a lot of times.

The moment she realized that she had made Apollyon weak and exhausted from craving his blood like a starving wild animal, Luna tried to control her appetite so that both of them would arrive at the Fall Courts safely.

Apollyon was adamant that he would be the one to carry her as they flew high into the sky with his blazing Fae wings.

At the same time, they followed Xerxes and Princess Sapphire\'s trail on the forest instead of her Archdemon Familiars—to which Luna insisted it was alright because they were supposed to be her servants.

Yet, her efforts of pretending that she was full were in vain.

Apollyon still forced her to drink his blood every time he heard her stomach growl.

Luna didn\'t want him to get in trouble.

They even argued about it, but her vampire instincts had won, which made her lose the battle.

Deep inside her heart, Luna was grateful that he had a mate who accepted her—a? husband and a soon-to-be father who was sensitive about her pregnancy.

Not even once did he make her feel like she was his burden to carry, even if she already felt like one.

The Vampire King can be gentle, loving, and thoughtful even if he can be too overbearing and possessive for her at times, treating her like she was his unique glass figurine that could break anytime if someone, other than him, made contact with it.

The Vampire King wasn\'t perfect, but he did his absolute best to get her needs met, supported her through it, and never left her side.

He didn\'t make her feel ugly as she went through the physical changes of child-bearing, cherishing her existence and worshiping her body like she was the only goddess he had known.

Apollyon was still powerful, and she understood that his weariness was the effect of his intense anxiety from the mission Hecate had given them to find the Tree of the Four Seasons, the existence of the Archdemon of Envy lying dormant in her physical vessel, the Archdemon Familiars\' presence who Apollyon both hated, the Queen of the Fall Courts and her Kingdom while he was looking out for his pregnant Empress and his half-sister\'s welfare.

His mate had it hard.

Of course, it was understandable that Apollyon was agitated.

Luna\'s womb began to twitch again.

This time it was more robust, forcing Luna to release a silent gasp as these two pebble-like unborn babies had tumbled over each other.

Her discomfort didn\'t escape her husband\'s watchful Prussian Blue eyes when he tilted his head at her, making the silky strands of his dark hair covering his forehead as his muscular build angled towards Luna.

She wasn\'t the only one who needed nourishment, and Apollyon had two unborn babies to feed with his ichor.

Did this little demon in her womb staying with her baby Leo deserve her mercy?

She can get rid of Luxen\'s offspring in her stomach without harming her true heiress by eating the magic fruit since its purpose was to drive away the demons who possessed the living creatures in the Material Realm.

Hopefully, by then, it wouldn\'t be too late before Luxen\'s offspring could form her flesh or take over her and Apollyon\'s daughter instead.

Finally, Luna and Apollyon were ready to defy the Moirai.

She will live.

Her rigid form relaxed bit by bit as Luna pressed her side against his mate\'s torso.

Apollyon didn\'t say anything when his attention returned to Queen Morgan, all the while not forgetting to make Luna and her heiress feel safe and protected by pulling her closer with his large hand resting on her hip.

The tender touches Apollyon gave when he brushed his hand over her womb was an unconscious thing between mates.

The musk of sandalwood and fresh pine mixed with the hint of lavender permeated her nostrils when she inhaled her mate\'s scent.

She got herself together and exhaled.

Apollyon\'s presence gave her to courage to ask again.

"What do you mean when the Goddess Hecate had specifically asked Ravin to locate it for us?"

Queen Morgan paused as she let her words sink in, glanced up at them, and blinked.

Her mouth was slightly open in surprise.

"The Goddess Hecate had told you that this Ravin would locate the Tree of the Four Seasons..." She scowled at Ravin, who sat next to her throne. "Why he of all creatures? Why did it have to be an Archdemon?" She demanded with gritted teeth only to stare at the Moirai, shaking her head in refusal. "No. Maybe, it was Goddess Hecate who had given that necklace to Ravin so that it would remind me of the past. Her sole purpose was to taunt me." She muttered under her breath in a panic as she buried her face in her hands, "I should have known."

"Now we had told the truth about Ravin and Sloth, Queen Morgan,it is time for you to fulfill your promise to help us so that I can save my wife from her tragic fate." Apollyon reminded her, demanding the Fae to fulfill her promise.

"I find it interesting that you believe us now, Vampire King." Lachesis abruptly commented in amusement. "We don\'t mean any harm but it is what it is."

Klotho smirked, "You should be grateful that Atropos had told you beforehand so that you and the Empress can prepare for the prophecy."

Sylvain\'s loud voice rattled everyone in the Council, "What is? that by the window?"

Demons.

Luxen\'s Legion had arrived in the Material Realm.

Hello to anyone who was wondering who Sylvain is. It is Arial.? I changed it after my intelligent reader Leslie_Cox had pointed it out. Keep in mind that Archangel Uriel is different from Archangel Ariel. Ariel is female, and she is the new guardian, Archangel of the Garden of the Four Seasons. Sorry for the confusion. I will update one chapter today. A lot of people have been asking me for a tarot reading. I guess many people have a lot of problems right now. And I will try updating two to three chapters per day this month if I can so I can end this earlier but this needs a lot of research.? Sorry for the broken promises. I got sick last month I just couldn\'t.? I want to end this arc, to be honest, to go to the family stuff and pregnancy.. I\'m tired of this toxicity too many problems Apollyon and Luna had to deal with. :(
