Capítulo 80: Lunar Eclipse*

"Are you certain there was no drug or liquor in this drink?" Luna asked the Vampire King; her voice was dreamy.

"I don't know, my wife." The Vampire King's blue eyes had grown so dilated that only a thin rim of black slits remained at the center of his pupils. "Though I see it had made you rather drunk as if you were engorged in my blood all night."

Luna couldn't focus on what Apollyon was talking about because her eyes had already zeroed in on the side of his throat as it fluttered with the rapidness of his pulse.

A strange urge suddenly filled her to reach up and touch him.

She didn't remember her hand moving, but suddenly her fingers brushed that very spot, his skin hot against hers.

Their eyes met.

Luna could feel the tension so thick; she could cut them with a knife.

She exhaled heavy pants as scorching lava flowed in her veins in an overwhelming lethargy. 

Apollyon's eyelids drifted shut, shuddering beneath her touch.
