Vampire King Apollyon

"I'm not going to fight. I will stay here, husband, for the sake of the babes." Luna replied. It was a relief to hear that, but her following words, not so much. "I will let my Archdemon Familiars fight for the safety of the Fall Courts."

Apollyon wholeheartedly agreed with his wife's first statement, but the latter was a suggestion he disliked even if he would do anything to keep Ravin and Sloth from Luna.

Unfortunately, today wasn't the right time to let his unfounded jealousy distract him from winning the battle with Luxen's demonic Legion.

"That's a bad idea." Apollyon shook his head and grimaced. "They can try to defeat the enemy from here. I don't want these two to be seen by Luxen's Legion."

"You are right." Luna blinked in realization as she dragged her beautiful emerald gaze up to his.

'That's s good tactic, husband." She snapped her fingers once, and he straightened, puffing his chest out, from her beloved's praise. "We had to keep our cards close to our chest, but I'm not sure if Luxen's Legion can feel Ravin and Sloth's presence in this Kingdom when they can't get through Queen Morgan's barriers. Nevertheless, this element of surprise will be our advantage."

Apollyon's hand dropped down from his beloved's waist.

Turning to face his half-sister and the werewolf, Apollyon stepped forward, "Please, watch over my wife, Princess Sapphire, Xerxes."

"Apollyon, wait."  As Luna grabbed his muscled arm when he began walking away, she hugged him from behind and buried her face on her back. "Be careful. I love you."

For some reason, Apollyon's heartbeat in excitement.

It was the wrong time for his body to respond to his wife's scent of sweet summer rain as it washed through his senses.

One inhale of this calming drug made the tense muscles on his shoulders loosen up a little bit. 

Sloth crossed his arms and tilted his head at her. "Where is my hug?"

Luna released him from her warm hug and scolded the bastard.

"Do  you want me to kick you?" The nasal tone almost made Apollyon's lips quirk in amusement. "You heard Apollyon. Both of you are not going anywhere." 

His wife's hand falling away from his waist made him mournful. 

"So Ravin and I don't have to defeat our Kind?" Sloth's lazy smile broadened, "That's great!" 

Luna cleared her throat and ordered, "Ravin and Sloth. You stay here with me." 

His smile turned into a pout, "You are not a fun Master."

Luna gave him a half-shrug as if telling the Archdemon 'Do-I-look-like-I-care?' gesture.

"Let us summon dark spirits in the comfort of these four walls and support my husband from afar." She finished.

"Kotari . Jora. Sylvain. Fly to your positions and reinforce the barriers with the Knights and Fae Sentinels assigned to your fleet. To the Fae Magicians in this Council. Remove all your cloaks in private  before you head outside of this Palace to go to the front lines."  Queen Morgan commanded as she regarded her people grimly, "You will follow while I head to the north."

"Husband, support Queen Morgan if you can." Luna's voice was barely a whisper, but Queen Morgan had caught it.

"I was just about to ask him that." The Autumn Queen looked at him and stated, "Jora, give the Vampire King, the Chariot of the Sun."

Sylvain's eyes widened in surprise.  "Isn't that special to you, Your Highness? A precious offering in honor to the son you have lost in the past?"

"The Chariot of the Sun is precious to me. But it must be returned to its rightful owner. It was Princess Ourania who gave it to me as a gift when she announced her engagement to Tristan. There might be no alliance between our Kingdoms but I will trust the Vampire King to keep it safe." Queen Morgan explained, and the name of the Chariot itself burned the surface of his skin fiercely.

What if this Chariot truly belonged to him in the first place?

"I still have the Chariot of the Moon. It is enough for me." The Autumn Queen added, "The rest of the Autumn Militia will use the Pegasus since are dealing with flying monsters here."

Hopefully, there will be no unicorns harmed in the Apocalypse.

"What if the Autumn Faeries get possessed during this battle, Queen Morgan?" Luna asked, and Apollyon could hear the quiver in her soft voice.

Right.

That made him all the more anxious.

They shouldn't forget the fact that they were going to face demons. 

What would happen if the Celebration of Ostara repeated itself?

"I'm sure you have an idea who was responsible for the Massacre at Krinoniapolis."

"I have heard of it. So, it's  true. It wasn't just baseless rumors, then."Queen Morgan rattled on as she flipped her floor-lengthed white-blonde hair behind her shoulder.  "You were responsible of it in some shape of form since you are possessed by this Archdemon named Lilith, right? Evil spirits seemed to be attracted to stronger demonic entities so that they could feed from their auras. Don't worry. The Autumn Courts are immune to possession and I made sure of that, Empress." Her bloody red lips stretched into a bemused grin. "I paid the price." 

Apollyon stretched his blazing Faerie Wings and jumped from the broken window of the Council Room to follow Sylvain and Jora.

These two were tasked by the Autumn Queen to guide him to the Chariot of the Sun, which she asked him to use to battle with the demons alongside the Autumn Courts.

While he was airborne, Apollyon saw Autumn Faeries in their wet clothes, and he quickly realized that these creatures must have worked outdoors during the hurricane and the earthquake.

Until now, their hands still held unto the tree trunks during the aftershocks, clinging for their dear life.

Some Faeries were trapped inside the city buildings screaming in panic as they headed towards the exit in a hurry, causing a stampede.
