Chapter 155 - Edging
"Apollyon."
Apollyon had been good at finding the treasure as he stroked and rubbed it to his heart's content, eliciting a raunchy reaction from her.
The Vampire King sucked in a breath when he smelled the temptation of Luna's earthy musk of feminine arousal wrapping around him.
The Vampire King knew how to manipulate her body, and the emotions he wanted to evoke out of her made her bow down to his will.
It had been there all along.
"Ah~" Luna abruptly covered a hand over her mouth to stifle her moans.
If she was as shameless as her husband, she would not have minded that she had moaned in public, but it would be a long time before he could adapt her husband's devil-may-care attitude.
She felt her husband's erection poking at her, hard and throbbing, and she had openly rubbed her butt cheeks against it without remorse.
Luna was driven by pure sex and wanton indulgence, her sense of propriety thrown out of the window.
"Apollyon." As she gritted her teeth, Luna's fingers curled around the Vampire King's forearm as she whispered, breathless, "Faster."
The Vampire King paused, and his voice was a pure sin when he whispered, "I guess your stubborn personality had rubbed off of me, wife."
Chuckling, the bastard did the exact opposite and moved slower, and Luna pinched her lips together instead of screaming in frustration. "You always do the exact opposite of what I want in bed."
"Please, Apollyon~" Luna moaned as she fidgeted and squirmed in her seat, arching and grinding her secret flesh towards the back of his hand as if urging him to move.
Gripping his wrist in place, she turned her head to glare at his handsome face. "Don't you dare stop, or I would kill you!"
His mischievous smile matched the devilish twinkle in his blue eyes. "Call me, master."
"Apollyon! For the love of the goddess--" Luna shot him an inscrutable look before she looked around her, just checking if someone knew what they were doing.
Luckily, the other Kings had stayed behind, giving them a wide berth of twenty feet for 'privacy'.
When she realized that she and the Vampire King were alone in their space, she exclaimed, "Are you kidding me right now?"
She looked down and peered at the Vampire King's left hand under her fluffy white skirt as his long slender fingers just hovered around her wet quim.
Those delicious fingers barely touched her lips, damn it!
She hissed and bit her lip in exasperation before drawing a calming breath.
Her husband had been playing with her, quite literally.
There was an awkward pause when she stuttered, "Please, master."
Apollyon didn't need to be told twice once he heard the magic word for her to enter the Realm of the Heavens.
The Vampire King had ground three of his fingers hard against her clit as he rubbed, pushed, and invaded her fortress so deep.
"Ah. Apollyon." Clenching her fists as she grunted with her mouth open, Luna could feel that ascending wave of her orgasm as she felt the sudden twist of delicious agony of knowing that she was almost there. "Please~."
Because Luna was too focused on reaching her climax as the Vampire King aroused her to fever pitch, she almost didn't hear that Cederic's horse had trotted beside them.
Apollyon had pulled out his fingers out of her quim abruptly, and she had mourned for its loss, still dripping wet.
"We are almost there, Your Highness."
The military general—the fucking bastard—had interrupted her pleasure-seeking activity, and she wanted to shriek at the top of her lungs, damn it!
There was also a hint of amusement in Cederic's tone when he informed them.
He knew what Apollyon was doing to her.
If Luna wasn't this desperate to come, she would have cared very much about what the other people would think.
They would think that she was a whore of an Empress, of course.
Fuck them!
Luna had opened her eyes and saw Apollyon's sprawling castle, the heart of the Vampire Realm, spread out in all directions.
Dark leafed pine trees provided the soothing patches of green as it surrounded the Castle, covered heavily by the winter snow.
She inhaled the biting freshness of the pine trees and the mountain winds to calm herself down.
She had been cursing all day!
"We are here, wife. We still have to prepare for the masquerade ball." Apollyon lifted her up in a proper sitting position on the saddle as he pushed her knees together.
She noticed that she too open and vulnerable, so she pulled her skirts down once again.
The Vampire King didn't want Cederic to see her inner thighs, so he muttered, "Perhaps we can postpone this tonight."
"Apollyon." Gritting her teeth, Luna whined.
Her face flushed as she confessed, "Please continue this. I'm so close."
They are already at the drawbridge.
"I don't think so." She wondered if the Vampire King knew how arrogant he had sounded to her. "When we go inside the castle, the servants would receive us first."
"Your Highness." She refused to back down. "You are such a fucking—"
Apollyon covered Luna's mouth before she could curse him out in front of Cederic and the servants who had gathered around to meet them at the castle gates.
Luna wanted to cry like a child who had her toy taken away by one of her playmates.
The Vampire King had deserved to be disrespected in front of his people.
How could he do this to her when she was almost close to orgasm?
She sucked in a breath as if that would give her more courage to plead for her pleasure.
"Master." Luna winced for saying that again since it was so out of her character.
This delicious torture made her do some crazy stuff, and Apollyon had enjoyed her chagrin to the fullest.
Luna begged softly, "I don't care about the stockings anymore—just please let me come."
He playfully smirked. "Later."
Damn it!
"Fine, I don't need you. I can do it on my own." She stared at the portcullis as they entered after the castle guards lowered the drawbridge.
Luna glanced up, and she noticed that there were women from the Consortium who weren't allowed to join the Battle Arena--because they weren't picked by any of the Kings to be their sole companion—waiting for their arrival.
The ladies stood at the balcony doors as all of them waved their handkerchiefs in congratulations that all of them made it out of the sword duels alive except for Catriona.
Luna wondered what would be their reaction if they found out that the Vampire King had killed her himself.
Would they immediately leave the Consortium and go to other Realm in fear that they would be next?
She felt her resolve strengthen for she couldn't wait any longer. "I have my own fingers so I will just have to figure it out."
"Your quim is also mine." Apollyon made Nimbus standstill before as he grabbed the reins from her.
He swung his right leg up and over the horse's haunches and got down on the ground.
Apollyon raised both arms as he motioned for her to get down, too. "You can try if you can separate yourself from me but remember I told you today is a busy day."
