Luna's eyes fluttered slowly, her vision was blurry as she couldn't see the people in the room clearly. She tried to sit up but fell back on the bed, then someone helped her sit up.
When her vision became clear, she asked for a cup of water, and it was brought to her by Althea.
"You're awake,"Althea said, Luna snatched the cup of water from her and gulped it in one go. Slowly, she came down from the bed and lazily walked over to Damien, beside him was the anonymous husband she was married to instead of Damien.
"You deceived me," She said, her words were followed by a sharp slap which landed on Damien's right cheek. "That's what you get for deceiving a princess!" She roared and hit Damien's chest.
"Don't you think it's a fair play, Kitten?" Luna's world came to an abrupt stop when she heard the voice of the anonymous man in the hood.
Luna had read books about men with godly voice, and she thought the gods of Egypt were the only ones who had those kinds of deep masculine voice.
"Wha…What do you mean by that?" She asked.
"Still playing the victim?" He asked and pushed Damien away slowly, then he stood in front of Luna, although she couldn't see his face clearly, but she could feel his dominant aura, and she trembled slightly.
"Adam, don't-"Damien tried to say something, but he was interrupted. Adam, so that was his name, she trembled as she stared straight at him.
Luna swallowed hard, "What are you saying?" She asked.
"You'd better not pretend like you don't understand what I'm saying, or did you think I'm a fool?" Luna was still confused as she tried hard to understand what he was saying, but to no avail.
He suddenly grabbed her by the neck, "Adam-" Damien tried to stop him, but with a flick of his hand, Damien was thrown across the room.
"You are not the bride I asked for," Luna was gasping for breath as he increased his grip on her neck, she closed her eyes as tears streamed down her face, it was painful, and she wished he killed her quick instead of gripping her neck.
"What do you have to say about that? Kitten?" He asked, releasing his grip on her neck, Luna stumbled on the floor as she rubbed her neck, coughing violently.
She didn't know what she had done wrong, escaping home just to come here and be treated rashly like she was a slave, getting married instead of her sister, only for her to find out that the man she had made her vows to wasn't her true husband, but a servant.
She didn't know where the sudden strength and boldness came, from, but she felt herself being controlled by her emotions. She stood up and slapped Adam hard.
"You also played me!" She screamed as she sobbed harder, the room was dead silent as they all stared in horror at the small lady who had slapped a demon king, one who was feared wherever his name was mentioned.
Everywhere was silent, and the temperature of the room became heavy and suffocating as Adam aura changed, they all started disappearing one after the other, leaving only Damien, Adam, and Luna.
"Adam, stay calm," Damien said as he slowly approached Damien. "Adam … calm," he said, but stopped as he suddenly dodged a sword that had come out of nowhere. Damien cast a look at Luna, he slowly shook his head and disappeared.
Luna was still angry, strangely she wasn't scared. Adam suddenly attacked her again, his grip on her neck was tighter as he raised her above the ground.
Luna yelled as she stretched her hand towards his face, even if she was going to die, she was going to make a name for herself. Make people know she died fighting, and striving for her life.
She put her hand into his hood and felt his face, then she quickly traced her hand down his neck and grabbed it tightly, still crying. Raising her leg as she kicked his chest.
Adam, who was blinded by his anger froze when he felt her cold little hands on his face, he smirked evilly and caught her leg, then he increased his grip on her neck.
But she was proving stubborn, he saw her bring his face closer to him, and before he could make a move, she bit him hard on the cheek, Adam's eyes widened, and he threw her on the floor.
"Ouch!" She cried as she held her waist. "You damn devil! You broke my waist!" She cried as she tried to stand up, but fell back on the floor.
Adam smirked coldly, she deserved it. He saw a tear dropped from her face as she massaged her waist. Adam walked slowly towards her, he didn't know what got into him as he stretched out his hand towards her.
Luna looked up at him, she whimpered. "You… You broke my waist," she sobbed. Adam's eyes turned cold when he heard her words, just a while ago she had dared to slap him in front of everyone, now she was acting all innocent and childish!
He wanted to retract his hand, but she held it and stood up. She stood in front of him and frowned, then her face which looked so pitiful changed as she suddenly kicked him hard on the waist.
He didn't feel any pain when she kicked him, but she had aroused his anger again.
"You ungrateful little kitten!" He hissed sharply and grabbed her neck, he was going to end her life once and for all, since she wanted it so badly, he was going to grant her her wish.
But the little lady in front of him didn't look scared at all, instead she smiled slyly.
"If I'm going to die, at least I would die seeing the face of the demon who killed me so that I will be the one to tell the angels what kind of punishment you deserve!" Suddenly, she pulled the hood that was covering his face…
