New Chapter for the Highest Tier (May 2021)

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

The Archdemon of Gluttony

Prince Ravin from the First Circle of Hell

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

Ravin made preparations to meet his Amare in one of Lucifer's dungeons.

His female demon servants could tell that he wasn't in a hurry as they stood in line near the walls with their head bowed down, carrying thick fluffy towels and fragrant soaps in their hands.

Nobody dared to move when he entered.

Complete silence filled his bathroom, and he preferred it this way so he could think about Luna.

Did she not want to see him again like what Camio told him in the Throne Room?

Did something happen to her at her prison cell?

Had the Grand Torturer gone overboard with his punishment?

Before the Grand Torturer had taken Luna from his Castle, Ravin had told him to do anything his Uncle asked for except raping her.

He knew female Archdemons have it hard during the training.

Luna already suffered mentally by what his brother, Luxen, had done to her, pretending to be the Vampire King and taking advantage of Amare's longing.

If Ravin's heart were rotten to the core, he would have raped her before Luxen did to trap her with him, but he didn't!

Ha!

It was a shame that his brother Luxen, who replaced Asmodeus in the Second Circle of Hell, had resorted to rape because of the one woman who he couldn't seduce—who was immune to his ability to bring out the most potent lust in every man and woman alike, no matter what creature it was. 

Luxen was in a hurry to claim Luna.

His brother was desperate when his blood bond with her was cut off.

The Archdemon of Lust might have ruined his initial plans.

Hopefully, this could make his Amare turn away from Luxen in revulsion straight into his arms.

Ravin was patient enough to play the hero. The good guy. The one who would tell his mate that everything would be alright.

Now, Ravin will be visiting Amare after he made some efforts to be handsome and presentable. 

He came to stand in front of the tall mirror, stretching his demonic wings in their full splendour.

His irises appeared like they were made of pure gold, and they were so different from his mother, Queen Jezebel, to which his brother had a huge resemblance.

He ran his fingers through his black as midnight hair, curling at the sharp angles of his face, which were similar to his father, the Demon King Lucifer.

He can't deny that he had a beautiful profile and a strong body made to conquer.

He would a woman's sanity in question if she didn't fall for him right away.

Every time he had a dilemma to solve, he contemplated all his choices during bath as he reconnected with his true desires and to ask himself what he felt deep within.

He needed a moment of clarity when it came to his mate.

Was it his time to rescue her out of her prison cell and deal with his Uncle's ire for meddling with his affairs?

That question earned him a frown as he walked towards the bathtub. 

Ravin should have saved her after the first week she was caught. But Satan and the Grand Torturer would have thwarted him every step of the way if he did that from the start.

He can keep her in his Castle and hide his Amare from Satan's sight. But then, they would come and barge through every door in his Castle to bring her back to the dungeons.

It was useless by that point.

Ravin only wished that Luna could endure the torment that the Grand Torturer put her through.

After all, she was an Archdemon who had a strong spirit.

The agony might be unbearable, but at least, her immortal will always heal.

The more she got used to it, Luna would acquire more power to mend her broken bones quicker if one challenged her during a battle between Archdemons.

Amare couldn't afford to be weak. 

The imposing columns of the bathroom were linked to a perfect archway at the exit, while the ceiling was inlaid gold and red silhouettes of demons and masks painted at the centre.

This bathtub was close to his heart because of the memories with Luna after she woke up after losing consciousness.

This was where he had taken Luna after she got out from the Lotus created by an Archangel.

He was thankful to that fearless Archangel who dared to activate the Armor of God in Hell in the Devil's Territory.

The Archangel was so strong that even one of the first Archdemons like Satan was powerless to destroy it.

The Archangel's presence was a blessing for him. Because of that, he was able to covertly take Luna from Luxen's clutches and got closer to her enough to allow him to do things… things that only lovers do if they were alone in their bedchamber. 

The water on the pool was mixed with drops of demon blood, crushed souls from the lake and other special minerals found in his Kingdom, turning the expanse of his skin smooth and even. 

The silent women scrambled around him quietly to assist him when he began taking off his tunic out of his shoulders and arms.

He shivered a little as he climbed on the bathtub, one leg over the other, naked.

Ravin was now seated on his small pool, and the bottom felt like cold stone.

He looked over his shoulder.

Any minute by now the dragon Sloth had given Luna to take care of as a gift will arrive and—

"REEEEEEEEE~" The whelp's loud screech was cut off when it bumped its head on the bathroom door, dropping like a rock to the ground.

"Ulk--" That didn't sound good.

Ravin checked if it was alright.

One of his servants was about to pick it up, but it moved, crawling on its limbs on the ground to approach him.

Just when he assumed that the whelp was too lazy to flap its wings, it fluttered thrice, enough to jump and splash into the pool with him.

"Rere." Holding it up with both hands, Ravin smiled at the first baby he had taken care of. 'Want to come with me and go get your mother?"

Ravin's smile dropped when he saw an Archangel's feather stuck in its mouth.
