Vampire King Apollyon

*******************************

Gritting his teeth to suppress his anguished screams in silence, Apollyon sat down next to her and touched the silver obol on her forehead with utmost reverence.

His shoulders were slumped as he examined her in a fine, strapless turqoise dress that hugged her curves.

Despite her greyish skin, her blue lips and the lack of the usual pink in her cheeks, Luna was bewitchingly beautiful.

She looked like she was simply taking a nap that made her lose the spark that she once had.

He knelt beside his wife stiffly, uncertain whether he should laugh or cry from his family's misfortune.

Yet, he couldn't stop himself from reaching out to squeeze her hand and feel its softness once again.

Apollyon recoiled when he only felt ice.
