******************************
Luna wasn\'t surprised when the guards burst into the thick wooden doors of their royal suite.
Yet, she couldn\'t help but gasp when she saw the menacing group infiltrate the royal suite.
They regarded her like she was a criminal they must capture no matter what.
Her hands tightened on Hecate\'s ancient grimoire as she hugged it closer to her chest.
She already half-expected them to come back this time, with more weapons and reinforcements, after the fiasco, they have witnessed that early afternoon.
People downstairs must have heard loud noises such as high-pitched screams of agony, the banging of furniture, wall ornaments and glass vases crashing onto the floor.
No. It was probably the monsters\' strange caterwauls coming from their private chamber which bothered the guests on the floors beneath theirs.
That must be the reason why they reported it to Henry, the Vinca Innkeeper. He, in turn, sent for the guards to figure out what was going on.
The guards of Vinca Inn had seen things unimaginable that had scarred them for life and Luna understood that.
Well, who wouldn\'t be when they saw thick slimes of blood moving as if it had a mind of its own while it gobbled the Vampire Empress who had hairy spiders coming out of her moonlit skin?
After the two guards exited their rented suite by jumping through the terrace, Apollyon immediately placed spells around their private space especially at the possible entrance and exit so that nobody from the outside could barge in without permission and interrupt while they summoned the Archdemon of Gluttony.
Her husband did great work at constructing the measurements of the geometric shapes with perfect accuracy. It was a fantastic work of art. He must have inherited that talent from his mother which made her frown at the summoning field.
Still, Luna was proud of her husband.
He made summoning demons so easy as if he had draw magic circles and uttered protection spells around it since the dawn of time---as if he had done this more often than her--from how meticulous he was with everything.
Perhaps, it was because Apollyon loved her so much that he was being extremely cautious as he followed the instructions Luna read aloud from Hecate\'s grimoire. It was sweet of Apollyon to give her a helping hand when it came to the preparations of the summoning ritual and extend her resting period.
Apollyon\'s Fae magic rescinded the moment the evocation and the binding of her Archdemon Familiar were successful.
The binding rites had ended for a few minutes already and Apollyon stalked towards the door, blocking the guards at Vinca Inn from getting further inside the chamber and dealt with their concerns.
Heart beating as fast as a winning horse on the race track, Luna glanced at Ravin and Sloth on the magic circle behind him in wide-eyed panic and returned her gaze at the guards. The guards hadn\'t seen them yet since they have to advance closer beyond the solar to do that.
At least, the crowd was preoccupied with the fallen debris from the ceiling and the cobblestones from the hole in the roof as they picked up the huge ones and put them aside.
As they roamed idly near the doors they just busted open, the guards cleaned up a bit while the head soldier discussed the damages Apollyon would pay for Henry\'s property. it served as a temporary distraction for now and she had to think fast.
There was no way in Hell, she could hide these two full-grown Archdemons from the Summer Faeries\' eyes.
She was about to shower them with illusion spells in a hurry without the guards\' notice but it turned out that Ravin and Sloth had thought about this in advance.
At that moment, Luna realized that these two became Archdemon Princes for nothing.
Without having to tell his slaves, they already applied glamour on their tiny horns and black curled wings.
Thank all the gods and goddesses!
Combing her messy silver hair from the strong gusts of wind from the summoning ritual, she cleared her throat and showed them how confident she was---that she wouldn\'t cower.
She wasn\'t guilty at all.
Nobody would know she was an Archdemon.
Ravin was still on the carpets while he laid on his stomach with his right cheek and palms resting on the floor.
He couldn\'t talk back since she ordered him to as a Familiar.
The only response he could make was to clench his sharp jawline while he scowled at--not her, but to her husband.
The pupils of his golden eyes were narrowed into slits.
Of course, this self-proclaimed Archdemon husband of his had a problem with his real husband.
Oh, goddess!
Luna let out a soft groan of regret as she rubbed a sweaty palm on her face.
This situation was all messed up.
Out of all Archdemons, why did the Goddess Hecate have to choose Ravin to be her slave when Sloth could--oh!
Maybe not.
The Archdemon of Sloth was too lazy to become a full-fledged Familiar.
Until now, Sloth was still kneeling in front of them and he was staring into space as if he was alright with the position.
The bloodstains on the red carpet appeared scorched and covered in black soot as if the purple flames already spent their last dying embers.
"Please come with me, Vampire King. Empress." The head guard of Vinca Inn told them, "--and those two..." He gave them a respectful bow, thinking they were Princes from another Realm. "I don\'t know if you are part of the King or the Empress\' Harem--"
"I am not into same-sex relations, Fae sentinel," Apollyon growled.
"I apologize, Your Highness." All of them placed their fists on their chests and bowed again.
When all of them lifted their heads in unison, the Head Guard gave her a questioning glance, "Then it must be the Empress?"
"No. My wife is mine alone." Apollyon said. "She had no Harem."
"Alright, Your Highnesses." The head guard regarded Sloth and Ravin in suspicion while they remained in the magic circle, "Whoever the two of you are, you must come down with us."
