Vampire King Apollyon

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

"How are you faring from the revelation, Princess Sapphire?" Keeping her head above the water, Luna asked softly as she paddled her long arms gently as if they were angel wings.

Her blank gaze was fixed on the blue sky, and her slow blinks made her look like she was about to fall asleep any minute by now.

"I\'m alright." Princess Sapphire replied, unsure,? "I just don\'t like Hephaestus around me."

"You don\'t want to claim the God of Fire as your father then?"

Apollyon didn\'t know why his sister\'s face suddenly flushed pink.

"Yes. Why would I like him after I discovered that he was the powerful bastard who made the Great Hall explode?" She snorted.

"I already have a monster for a mother." Her lips quirked in a sardonic grin. "I wouldn\'t accept an absent father who just popped out of nowhere which is a monster as well."

A sudden comfortable silence fell on the three of them.

Apollyon knew that everyone agreed to the inevitable truth.

"What if he comes back around?" Luna said.

Princess Sapphire slightly flinched when a tree branch fell from the left side of the forest in a loud crunch.

Startled, all of them simultaneously glanced in that direction just in case they spoke of the devil\'s existence.

After craning their necks to figure out the cause of the noise, Princess Sapphire exhaled a heavy sigh when she realized it was nothing but paranoia, thinking that her father would attempt another abduction.

"Hecate will keep him away from me in exchange for something." She began.

"Does it involve you and Xerxes accompanying us on our mission?" Apollyon prompted.

Princess Sapphire closed her eyes for a minute as if to calm herself.

When she opened them again, her expression was grim. "Hecate didn\'t elaborate. She said you would be the one who will explain it to us."

"I will tell you when the time comes," Apollyon said.

For some reason, Luna examined him with an intensity that made him incline his head at her to see if she had anything to comment on.

It can\'t be explained.

It would be better not to say anything to his half-sister right now.

Not when his intuition was telling him not to.

"Maybe, after Xerxes had fully recovered and we will start the journey."

"It\'s going to be far, huh?" Luna slowly dipped her head into the clear water and sunk for a long minute.

Bubbles rippled up through the water before she flung herself to the surface.

Her wet silver hair somersaulted in the warm breeze.

Then, she drifted lazily into the wet stones surrounding the pool and leaned her back against it, relaxing at the edge.

Apollyon spotted something strange. His vampire eyes couldn\'t be mistaken. "What is that on the back of your neck, Luna?"

"What do you mean?" Luna\'s hand immediately shot to her nape as she caressed it. "I don\'t know what you are talking about."

Sunlight shined on her porcelain features which made it appear like she was made of glass.

"Come here." Apollyon beckoned a finger.

"I don\'t have an eye on my palm to see what was behind my head, Apollyon," Luna said sarcastically.

"I said come here." Apollyon didn\'t mean it, but his tone was cold and hard. "Let me see what it is. I thought I saw a black spider when you gathered your hair up for a second."

"It\'s nothing, Apollyon." She rested her head against a polished stone and made no other move.

"I can handle a small spider." His wife watched him with hooded eyes. "Just let the poor thing rest there if it wanted to."

"What if it was poisonous?" He growled low. "I can\'t ignore it. Come here."

Luna let out a seductive chuckle. "No. You are the one who needs me right now. You should be the one who must approach me, Your Highness."

Apollyon stared her down before he took his shirt off and threw them at the grass behind him.

"You couldn\'t feel that hairy spider at your nape? Was it a real thing, or was it a permanent mark on your skin that I haven\'t seen yet?" Apollyon asked coldly before he jumped on the water with a huge splash.

The water was just at the level of his torso.

He dug his feet to the smooth rock bottom mixed with sand as he approached her with a scowl.

"Just let it slide, Apollyon."

Now, he could sense a slight quiver in her voice.

"I don\'t really need to see this right now." Princess Sapphire added in annoyance.

Apollyon assumed she was rolling her eyes.

"It isn\'t my part of the plan to take a bath in this pool. I just planned to watch you and keep you safe just in case Hephaestus comes back out of nowhere, but this Empress right here—"

"—is openly flirting you?" Princess Sapphire supplied.

"Would you leave if I tell you to so that I could flirt with Apollyon to my heart\'s content?" Luna asked out of the blue.

Apollyon\'s jaw clenched in disbelief.

"From that longing gaze in your eyes, Apollyon, I thought you desired to be alone with me without your half-sister in the picture."

"No." Apollyon eyebrows knitted in suspicion. "I would like to keep her here, thank you very much."

"God forbid my existence would stop? the two of you from doing something only adults do." His sister made funny, disgusting noises as her hand clenched the metal handle on his bucket. "I will be gone with my fishes and return to the royal infirmary. Just don\'t let me witness this abomination."

"Don\'t go." He told Princess Sapphire while his eyes narrowed on his wife.

Crossing her arms over her chest, Luna pouted, "What is wrong? Turning cold in just the blink of an eye despite that monstrous arousal?"

"Wife." He winced as his barefoot stepped on an uneven rock. "Not in front of the child."

"It\'s simple." Luna shrugged.

The corners of her eyes crinkled when she smirked. "Allow her to leave If she didn\'t want to stay with us."

"Luna. I\'m becoming suspicious of you."
