Chapter 458 - Tragic Love Story

New Chapter for the Highest Tier (May 2021)

"It might be unfamiliar to you, Empress Ourania, but as as the current Empress, I want you to know that we have a leverage against a Vampire King whether he like it or not. Even if we might be shackled to a mating bond, it wasn't only us in this connection. The males are in it, as well, so they will have a hard time constantly if they wouldn't listen to your requests. The only mistake you did was cower in his submission."

Luna continued, "I didn't tremble in front of Apollyon especially when I found out who he was after I got rid of the Blood Beast's curse."

"The Blood Beast..." Princess Ourania looked at her son. "At that time, I thought… if you couldn't recognize King Gwythyr, how can you recognize me?"

"I took advantage to the situation to save myself. But I was hopeless at that time." Princess Ourania admitted as she rested her arms on either side of her chair. "I knew I would die in your hands from the unspoken hatred you have of me when you were growing up. Your despair with the Blood Beast… I saw that as a way out for me. My freedom. I'm sorry if it hurts you but I want to be honest."

Apollyon clenched his fists and then relaxed them.

"I want to lash out but that wouldn't change the past."

Luna reminded him softly, "Those volatile emotions inside of you, husband, is a waste of space."

"How did you get rid of it pf the Blood Beast, Empress?"Princess Ourania inquired. "He was unstable. I figured out there was another identity inside him because he didn't recognize his own father when he devoured him to pieces."

"There was." Apollyon began. "It was the High Priestess King Gwythyr picked for me the moment I assume his throne. You remember that girl, father was so fond of? That girl was supposed to be part of my Consortium but he desired her to be the High Priestess to preserve her innocence--Some beautiful virgin the aristocrats can look up to and fantasize about for her beauty and untouchable status. Lilith loved the attention from the men but she hated that she couldn't have me."

Princess Ourania nodded, her auburn hair danced like silk on her shoulders and when the sunlight hits them it turned into spun gold. "I remember, Apollyon. Your father have given you the freedom to choose the woman you are going to marry—"

"--because he said that being married to you was the bane of his existence. That if given the ability to travel in the past, he would tell his? younger self not to agree with the arranged marriage with the Spring Courts to breed royal vampires to the Fair-folks. Its only purpose was to acquire a superior gene of vampires who was capable of magic—more powerful than the Vampiric Fae from the Winter and the Autumn Courts." Apollyon replied.

"Your father must not have told you, King Apollyon, but he actually came to the Faerie Realm to break the time-honored contract of the ancestors between the Summer Courts and the Vampire Realm. Nobody coerced him. He had the power to say no and not uphold the tradition since he was the King. I made the mistake of coming to the Throne Room to talk to my mother, Queen Titania." Princess Ourania told them and Luna's ears perked up in interest. "I was just there to confirm what kind of painting she was gifting the guest at that time, and it was the Vampire King, King Gwythyr who sat across them. After taking one good look at me from head to toe, King Gwythyr canceled the agreement he made with my father and told me right then and there that he would marry me and bring me to the Vampire Realm after getting to know me as his future wife."

She knew so little about Apollyon's mother.

It turned out that Apollyon wasn't familiar with her as well.

"This was the first time I have heard of this."

"The plan was…my parents gave me and your father a week to get to know each other before we wed. For him to woo me with love and gifts. Things everyone surmised what a woman loved—tempting promises, flowery words and gifts. Like you, Empress, I was stubborn. I didn't give him any indication that I was attracted to him no matter how handsome or charming he was. There was something about him which made me uneasy. I didn't trust him at all. I already had a secret lover at that time. But I don't want to tell him frankly or else my parents would force me to reveal who my lover was and have him killed for cavorting with me who already have a fiance from another Realm. I kept my mouth shut and I couldn't lie to him. One the third night since the Vampire King's visit, I sneaked out of my room since my lover and I have planned to elope and move to another Realm, but you know what King Gwythyr did?"

Apollyon gave his mother a wry smile. "Of course, I would know."

One that he would likely do if he found Luna escaping her room and eloping with another man.

It had been forever but Apollyon remembered who his father used to be and how he behaved while Apollyon observed King Gwythyr growing up. "He killed your lover, right?"

"In front of my eyes. It traumatized me." Pupils dilating, Princess Ourania's eyes turned blank and she shuddered. "I can still clearly recall the way his fangs lengthened as he ripped Aidan's throat. He was a Faerie Sentinel tasked to guard and protect me. But he wasn't able to protect himself from King Gwythyr. He caught him at the location we promised to meet."

"One week of becoming acquainted to the monster turned into three days. Since my betrayal had broken the contract, the Summer King and Queen gave the Vampire King the permission to take me to the Vampire Realm for a Marriage Ceremony. My parents were ashamed of the incident and washed their hands off me, claiming I brought this upon myself." There was audible stress in her voice as her words tumbled over each other. "On that same night he killed my lover, she forced the blood bond on me by draining me to death and feeding me his own blood after a minute of death, successfully establishing the blood bond."
