"If you die tonight, it will be your fault… and the Vampire King. Do you think he will ever want to live after he returns to normal and finds out about the tragedy he had brought upon his family? Do something about it, quickly, before the Vampire King gets to you. Make up your mind, right now, Lune." Sloth's mouth was set into a grim line. "To be honest, all of your orders clash with each other, and it was close to driving us mad. Madder, I mean. I'm not someone that you can define as sane."

"You can take him down, Ravin. You can hurt him until he goes unconscious, but you are not allowed to kill him." Her voice wavered when she added, "He must remain alive."

"That would be difficult for my brother, Lune. Amend it." Sloth barked orders at her, and she ignored every single word.

The bastard had no right to order her around when she was her Master while he was a mere familiar.

"You want me to approve of Ravin killing my husband?" Her head ached, and every inch of her skin felt bruised. "My head is aching from your nonsense, Sloth."

"It should have been your neck or your whole body that should be aching. Not your head."

Her stomach was knotted with contractions.

She opened her mouth and shrieked her lungs out, but before the cry burst out from her lips, she clamped her palms over them to not alarm the two men who were fighting to the death.

When she took her next breath, shudders racked through her.

Her weak legs gave out, and she found herself kneeling on the floor again.

"Shut up. My stomach hurts." She closed her eyes and let out an unsteady breath, trying to accommodate the multitude of pains that assailed her.  "I feel like I'm about to give birth, Sloth."

"I had no experience with assisting births, Lune. Except monitoring dragons as they lay their eggs. Unfortunately, you are not a dragon, and you don't lay eggs." "Please don't do it in front of me. Suck the vampire babies inside and hold it for now."

Breathing heavily, he slid a hand over her bulging stomach in a weak attempt to shield her babies.

Blood seemed to trickle between her legs, staining the white gown she wore.

It seemed to disarm the Vampire King a bit.

His body stopped in mid-motion and jerked his head up.

He seemed to search the crowd in the Great Hall from where she and Sloth stood a the corner.

​ He knew that something was wrong with her other than her desire to talk to a vampire who had suddenly gone rogue.

Apollyon's gaze shot in her bulging stomach.

Everyone turned to pause.

Did he remember her now?

Unfortunately, this turned into an unwelcome distraction.

From out of nowhere, an Archdemon dagger materialized in Ravin's hand.

Luna shrieked when he stabbed her husband's back so deep that she could see the sharp tip going over his chest and ruthlessly withdrew the long knife, which left a gaping red hole near his heart.

Luna desired to hand her husband a weapon to make it even, but Apollyon had lost all his sanity and control, his face only belonging to that of a ruthless savage.

At first, Luna thought that Ravin had killed him for good with the fatalistic dagger, but his vampire body only jerked from the attack before he pivoted and kicked the hand that clutched the hilt of his dagger.

It fell to the ground and Apollyon was able to snatch it from Ravin because his knees suddenly gave out after the severe injury he had inflicted upon the Vampire King.

Ravin must find it hard to work around the new binding oath because she refused to amend it.

She wanted to let out a sigh of relief but Luna's breathing turned hot and ragged.

Luna released another piercing scream from the agony of invisible giant scissors slashing inside her womb.

She cried out from the physical pain.

It hurt like hell and she couldn't make sense of her surroundings except for the things that we're currently happening inside her. She heard another earth-shattering scream and she realized it came from her own mouth.

"Oh goddess, help me!"

Luna's frantic hands reached for him and she wrapped her trembling hands around his neck.

She could feel another spurt of blood flowing on her thighs helplessly and it alarmed her that she found no alternative but to beg her Archdemon Familiar to make her feel better.

Sloth inched closer to her as he soothed and stroked her gently until she begin to relax a little.

Her tears soaked his shirt.

"Bring one birth attendant with you and leave, Sloth. I accept Amare's new command."

He immediately did his bidding with lightning speed and Apollyon followed Ravin right behind him.

This time, Xerxes, who was protecting Princess Sapphire from the side tried to help Ravin defeat Apollyon at the young princess's command.

He lunged at Apollyon from the back while  Ravin continued to swipe at the Vampire King from left to right and back again with his claws, leaving streaks of blood across Apollyon's chest, arms and face.

Still, he was able to tear at Ravin better with the stolen dagger.

Apollyon might be immortal but the wound in his chest had slowed him down compared to Ravin.

She stared, terrified at him and for her husband. At this rate, this battle would never end if the other one wasn't dead.

"Xerxes, scent the lady who almost took your princess and scrutinize each faces carefully just in case the bitch switched to another glamour. I know they are still here." The Archdemon denied his help and gave him another mission instead, claiming that the huge werewolf was getting in his way. "We can't let them get away with the page they tore from Hecate's grimoire."

Xerxes gave a slight nod and reverted back to his human form.

The rest of the menservants caught up with Xerxes  as they spread out in search for the missing lady.
