Hell's Consort

Chapter 281 - Traumatized

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

Archdemon Empress Luna

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

When he had this grim expression on his face, the lines of his forehead made him appear starkly masculine.

Without thinking, Luna's gaze landed on that sinful mouth that had licked every inch of her.

Those lips were a pure temptation, soft, and toxic in a way only an Archdemon's mouth should be, but it could be something a vampire would want to sink their fangs into.

Now all she could think of was that wet tongue trailing over her neck and her chest as she laid on the bed, impassive.

When he was satisfied with her condition, Ravin advanced towards the edge of the bed, rolled the lengthy coverlet, and swaddled her like a new-born baby.

When he was done, Ravin glanced down at her and thrust his chest, looking so damn proud of himself.

He had wrapped her inside the blankets so tight Luna appeared like a worm.

Ravin dusted his hands off for a job well done before he turned his back and held the doorknob.

"I will now give you privacy, Amare." He let out a dark chuckle, and her thighs clenched at how deep it sounded, "I'll be gone."

"I'll be gone."

Those three words echoed into the walls of her brain, and every bounce made her headache that she lost her inability to think.

Luna lifted her head and paused for a few seconds, letting his words sunk in into her stunned brain. There was a flash of memory of Apollyon during their wedding night.

She couldn't haul her arms out of the blankets fast enough as the thick fabric enveloped her body from head to toe.

Luna swore she had screamed 'EEET' in desperation before removing the piece of fabric out of her mouth and spat it out.

Breathing hard as she rolled off the coverlet, Luna shouted at Ravin to 'WAIT' for the second time.

It was louder t than the first one, and Ravin had heard her before he locked the door.

Goddess, don't let this bastard lock the door of his sex dungeon.

She refused to be treated as a prisoner in the Vampire Realm and certainly not in Hell.

As Luna finally got herself together, Luna demanded sharply, and her voice came out in a rasp from screaming and moaning earlier, "Where are you going?"

She clutched her throat and grimaced, waiting for his response.

There was this pause that made her hands fidget.

Luna felt like a ball spiked with needles was stuck in her throat, losing her voice.

She was already sweating bullets when Ravin answered, "I have things to see to."

Luna's eyes bulged as she squirmed in her blankets in panic.

The last thing that Luna had seen was his broad back, his cloak dancing like waves trailing his heels, as Apollyon faced the door, telling her that he would go somewhere.

Luna screamed as she felt full-body tremors, shaking her awake.

'Apollyon had gone somewhere so that he could cheat with the consort!' Luna recalled as she clenched her fists.

Luna's nostrils flared in anger, wanting to bury that consort alive as she relieved that memory again and again.

Why was she feeling like this?

She was in the present.

There was no point in looking back on the past because it didn't exist anymore.

Why was she hurting herself by recreating the same old trauma?

Did Ravin know what happened between Apollyon and her before?

Ravin knew how to trigger her, driving her to insanity.

This wasn't real.

Apollyon wouldn't cheat on her just like Luna had remained loyal to her husband.

She was doing a pretty bad job at it.

As Apollyon said, the lady was insignificant in their lives.

The ladies from her Consortium were already sent home or moved to another Kingdom as another King's wife or concubine.

She told herself that and exhaled slowly, relieving the strain in her muscles.

Luna thought that she had made peace with the past, but why did it still disturb her until now?

She even saw her own memory with the Vampire King merge with the Archdemon of Gluttony in the present!

Why did it cross her mind when Apollyon and Ravin were two different creatures?

Luna had to remind herself to set the two apart.

The Blood Beast was a separation from Apollyon's identity.

"Luna." Ravin had immediately climbed by the bed with a jaw set and knelt by her side.

Any lingering amusement earlier had died a quick death when he asked,? "What is wrong?"

She cut off the thought before her memories of Apollyon cheating could creep into her mind again.

"I was giving you privacy because I thought you want to be alone." Ravin assisted her in a sitting position while she was under the blankets.

Raising a hand to stroke her hair, he murmured, "You want to be away from me, am I right?"

"I—" Please don't leave me. Luna shook her head and replied, "I don't know what to say."

"Are you alright?" His flaming golden eyes gazed at her. "Did I punish you too hard with the flogger?"

"No. Yes. No. " She murmured. "I don't know."

He frowned, "Do you want me to stay for a little while and lay in bed with you?"

"I feel so alone." Luna brought a shaky hand as she wiped the tears flowing from her eyes. "But, I want to be with my husband, Apollyon." At the mention of Apollyon's name, the Archdemon closed his hand over her wrist. "Ravin, please help me return in the Vampire Realm."

"My heart belonged there." Her voice choked with tears. "It hurts me that I can't be with my mate. Please help me, Ravin.? Please."

Ravin wrenched his hand away from her fingers. "I want to be with him and not you."

Luna pleaded as she clasped his shoulders in anguish in turn. "He will think I had been cheating on you. I don't want him to think that I wasn't loyal."

"I love Apollyon, Ravin." Luna sobbed as she put off any attraction she had felt for the Archdemon. "You have to accept that."
