'I can accept Ravin being your familiar along with Sloth but I had enough of him claiming that you are his. If I hear another word one more time….' He let that threat hang in the strained silence.

Apollyon's thoughts resonated and bounced back to the corners of her mind before he continued, 'He needed to be stopped, Luna. Don't expect me to? just stand still and accept whatever he dishes out like I always did at the Summer Castle and back at the caves.'

'Apollyon.' Luna exhaled a sigh and pinched the bridge of her nose, 'I know you are frustrated that you can't beat him up or kill him like you want to because you are afraid of? the effects it might have on me as their Master but you have to endure some more.'

His jaws clenched at that..

Another thing—no, it wasn't a thing, but an Archdemon—which irritated her was the welt of Sloth's shoe stepping on the train of her dark orange dress.

As she gritted her teeth, Luna was tempted to look over her shoulder and find out what was wrong with him because the bastard had done this multiple times…until she realized that Sloth was bored.

Giving him attention might encourage this childish old man to annoy her more.

'Everything will come to an end soon now that we have entered the Fall Courts.' Luna promised. 'Reserve that grudge after we find the Tree of the Four Seasons. We are one step closer? to our goal.'

' I couldn't wait for that? special day to? come when his soul cord was cut from yours.'

'You see, husband, you had no reason to be jealous because I already made myself carry that responsibility to not make you jealous.' She replied. 'Ravin can do whatever he wanted but my eyes will never wander even if I am surrounded by a lot of these men. In a sea of people, my eyes will always look for you.'

He cocked his head at her and narrowed his gaze,? 'If? your beautiful eyes stray to even one of? Queen Morgan's Cadre, I will give you a punishment you wouldn't forget.'

'A punishment I wouldn't forget?' Luna blinked and met his blue, blue eyes and curled her fingers into Apollyon's hand.? 'You wouldn't dare, Apollyon.'

An arched eyebrow from him, and Luna winced. 'I already saw you do that once, Luna.' His nostrils had flared as he watched the nuance of her expression. At first, Luna had no idea what he was talking about until he elaborated, 'Don't even think I didn't see you scrutinize that blond Fae with wings that is a bit similar to mine while he stood near Sloth and you.'

'I was merely surprised at his close proximity, alright?' She said defensively. 'He was part of Queen Morgan's Cadre and I wanted to assess what he was capable of as I scanned him from head to toe. I wasn't making goo-goo eyes at him and admiring his physique. '

'How about that long silver-haired Fae named Kotari walking behind us?' Apollyon shot back in her thoughts, and Luna frowned in his direction. 'You looked at him for too long when he arrived to report to Queen Morgan if we had Fae and Vampire reinforcements waiting for our signal.'

Luna blushed furiously at Apollyon's unfounded accusations, 'I admit that I only looked at him because of the large white owl hooting on his shoulder in broad daylight. Like I said, you are still the best from everyone I have seen so you have to stop being jealous because it doesn't help us in the mission.'

I can't help it since I am mated to you, Luna.'

She opened her mouth as if she was about to argue with him verbally, but she quickly shut her mouth when she recalled that they were secretly discussing in their mind link.

Queen Morgan, her Cadre, Archdemon Familiars, Xerxes and Princess Sapphire might discover that they were talking behind everyone's back.

The only thing that stopped Luna from doing precisely that was the fear lingering at the back in her mind that didn't feel like hers.

It was from her husband's.

Apollyon flashed her an apologetic look.

'I wasn't supposed to be like this but it felt like something had weighed me down, sending me all these thoughts which triggered my envy. I am now telling you so that I could get it out of my chest and feel better about it.'

'Envy, huh? It made me think that this was Lilith's doing all this.' Luna surmised. 'It would make sense that she amplified those feelings of envy on a person and trigger them so much—

'—it left them bothered that they couldn't think straight.' Apollyon finished for her.

'Is that how you feel, husband?'

'Not that it mattered. Now, that we have arrived at the Fall Courts to fulfill our mission,? I couldn't wait to get rid of your Archdemons and send them back to Hell after all of this is done. They are determined to make the alliance with Queen Morgan difficult with their stupid stunts. Sloth's boredom will not be an excuse will accept next time.'

'Mm-mm.'

Apollyon's words seemed rushed as he gave her an honest confession, 'I half expected our relationship to go downhill the moment the Blood Beast was involved in Hecate's mission.'

You should know that I am open, and I'm not hiding anything from you, Apollyon. Don't be pessimistic about our mating bond. It is more vital than you think. We will stand the test of time. If you expect that our marriage will go downhill and you allow yourself to descend into the proverbial slope, I would hold you by the neck and drag your ass back and climb to the top.' Luna shouldn't have thought about that? ? savage yet comical imagery, but it made her smirk in satisfaction, ? 'It might be an uphill battle, but if you don't want to fight for our heir and me, I'm going to make you.'
