"What do you want me to do?"

The Vampire King's deep, sensual voice she had fancied almost sounded cruel as his hand gripped the flesh on the underside of her breast before his long, slender fingers advanced upwards, playing with her left nipple until they puckered through her bodice.

Luna's mind want to scream, 'Don't stop!' but she settled with a faint reply, "Nothing. People are watch--"

Apollyon trailed slow kisses from her neck down to her shoulders.

He had sucked, nibbled, and bitten like a true vampire, leaving love bites in his wake.

The delicious warmth made her feel like she had amnesia, forgetting who he was, where they were, and who surrounded them as lethargy took over. Luna's body had warmed with a hurried sense of excitement when Apollyon said, "I can just rub your clit until you come all over the saddle instead of my cock."

"Fuck, Apollyon." Luna couldn't help but curse at her husband's abrupt declaration.

"No dirty talking to me." She hissed at him as she pinched her lips together. "I will get down from Nimbus if you continue this route."

The Vampire King had proven he was immune to her wife's ominous threats.

He had already considered Luna as harmless as an innocent rabbit.

"Don't." He paused for a while and shifted his sword to his left because his right hand had already numbed from holding it upright in a display.

Apollyon's lips curved as he began to move his hand to massage her shoulders to get back to her good side. "We are almost there at the Castle."

"I can't stand to be near you any longer." Luna tried hard to focus on other things aside from her husband's seduction, but it was hard.

Once again, she shifted into her position and threw her butt backward, and indeed, she could feel that Apollyon was 'hard'.

She was already aroused before she had sensed Apollyon's erection, but right at this second, she was mindless with lust more than ever.

Now, Luna's mind had spiraled, searching her brain for potential ways on how she could get her husband's cock inside her while they were riding a horse.

Oh, my goddess.

This was ridiculous.

"You tempt me." The Vampire King's perverted mind had rubbed off on her, and she wouldn't ever admit this out loud.

Glancing at the sprawling Vampire Castle as they neared the riverside, Luna shifted her gaze to the stirrup and placed her left foot to dismount from Nimbus.

She told Apollyon as she prepared to jump, "Maybe, I will ride Cederic."

The Vampire King disagreed with her as he tugged at her corset so she could take her seat back at the saddle.

She didn't expect that from him, which sent her swatting the air awkwardly to gain her balance.

She turned her head and narrowed her eyes at him, and Luna saw Apollyon glaring at her with menace.

"Wife." Nostrils flaring, he swallowed hard, and the movement sent Luna's gaze shifting to his sexy Adam's apple without meaning to.

Luna swallowed as she bit her lip, nervous.

She avoided the Vampire King's intense scrutiny.

"You really want to make me angry." He said coldly as his pupils dilated, clenching his jaw. "Repeat what you just said."

"I said I would ride with Cederic." Luna corrected as she looked down, not meeting Apollyon's eyes.

She shouldn't have said that.

Luna couldn't say it wasn't an honest mistake because she said that on purpose.

"Well, you forgot the one word in that statement."

Damn, the Vampire King was sharp.

He listened to every single word she said.

That must be a good quality of a perfect husband, but it could be his downfall if he easily gets offended.

"Calm down." Luna giggled a laugh, but it came out strange in her ears. "It's a joke."

Apollyon's next action almost scared the fuck out of her when he untied her stockings from his huge sword and hung them around his neck before returning the lance to the scabbard attached to the saddle pommel on his right side.

She even flinched and ducked her head because she thought her husband would behead her for her insolence with his sword.

"What are you doing?" Luna shifted forward away from him to remove his grip on her corset, but he didn't.

"Luna. Calm down." Apollyon circled an arm around her waist as he forced her to remain still. "I'm not going to hurt you."

Her struggle to escape had made Nimbus bounce into short, jerky movements into a gallop. "Don't spook the horse."

Apollyon tightened his hold on her as the icy wind must have come from the snow-capped mountains he had seen ruling the skyline sent the silver strands of Luna's hair flying. "You must think me so evil."

"Oh." Luna paused, abruptly halting her squirms, and Apollyon released his grip on her corset.

Clearing her throat, she stuttered, "I'm—" She closed her mouth and pursed her lips in regret.

She had thought for a split second there that her husband would hurt her, which was impossible.

The Vampire King was grabbing her clothes so she wouldn't dive headfirst to the ground.

What was wrong with her messed up brain?

"I thought wrong, husband. I'm sorry." Luna reasoned out. "I was just scared, that's all."

At least, she had admitted that she was wrong.

"I do trust you with my life." Berating from her actions, Luna untangled her husband's arm from hers, lifting his hand to her lips as an apology.

She queried shyly, "Are you still angry about Cederic?"

"No." The Vampire King squeezed his powerful hands on her hips, his voice exuding strength, danger, and pure masculinity, which made her want to shudder in euphoria. "I was angry that you almost jumped into a moving horse.

Apollyon combed her silver hair with his hands before gathering them into his fists.

He lifted her mane off her nape, licking his tongue across that sensitive patch of her skin.

"It's dangerous."
