ARTEMISIA

I awoke with a start.

My eyes darted around the room as I tried to recall the reason my heart was thumping fast.

I was aware I had a nightmare. But, just like every other night, I couldn't remember what I had dreamt about.

Sighing, I gripped my phone that was underneath my pillow and checked what the time was.

I noticed it was only a few minutes past 10 which meant, I had slept after lying on the bed and it was only for a few minutes.

"Geez." I groaned whilst rubbing my tummy as it grumbled. I realized I hadn't eaten anything since after the wedding was done today.

I had been thinking of what to do to get me out of the situation I was in, to think about food.

I stepped out of the room to the kitchen which was together with the living room. My hand found the switch on the wall, light flooded into the room as I clicked on it.

My eyes dimmed and I blinked several times before they got accustomed to the brightness.

    SINI sighed whilst tossing on the bed. Standing up yet again for the umpteenth time tonight, I glanced at the sleeping figure of my wife curled up on the couch.I grimaced at the term. I doubt if I would get used to seeing her as one.The blanket she had taken from the wardrobe was wrapped around her small frame and she pulled it up to her face. So, I could only make out only her forehead as the moonlight streamed into the room. I knew I was rude and mean to her since we arrived in my glasshouse, but I didn't careMore so, I don't know why I was acting cold towards her. Because I could remember, no girl not even Adrina, my ex had ever made me feel so bothersome before.Perhaps, it was her scent. The intoxicating strawberry and grape perfume that she wore.Even her hair smelt similar because I had caught a whiff of it whilst at the cathedral when I tugged the veil covering her face away.My gaze snapped towards her a

    ARTEMISIA“Where are we going?” I asked for the umpteenth time, staring at Sin.Whether he heard me or not, he didn't act like it. Rather, he went on dragging the luggage he had carried yesterday, including mine. He dumped them at the back of his car and walked to the driver's side.Since I woke up, I had noticed the change in his demeanour. But, he didn't tell me what was going on with him. Instead, he had been ordering me about to get ready.“Are you coming in or not?” He asked, turning on the ignition.“Where are we going?” I asked again.“You’ve barely answered any of my questions since morning.”“That is because I got no answer to your questions.” He said, nudging the door open for me.Even though he had no answer to my questions, at least he had the courtesy of opening the car for me.I slid into the ca

    ARTEMISIAExhaling, I twirled my hair out of habit as I stepped towards a door that I believed was leading to the balcony.I twisted the doorknob and stepped out. Immediately cool air smacked my face.I let out a deep breath as the wind caressed my cheeks whilst lifting my eyes to the night sky, to stare at the stars as they glittered brilliantly.My eyes dimmed as I caught sight of a shadow lurking in what looked like a garden.I couldn't explain what or who it was since it was extremely dark and I was also far away.I shook my head and averted my gaze. Also, I attempted to think of something else to clear the thoughts of the shadow being from my head as it resurfaced."Perhaps, I should take a look," I say to myself whilst staring in the direction of the lawn.Shrugging, I step back into the hall and I notice everyone was still engrossed in the party.It was my perfect chance to sneak outs

    ARTEMISIAAs soon as I stepped back into the hall, Sin's mother was all over me. I noticed she wasn't alone as well.The same people that had welcomed me the minute I stepped into the hall were the ones watching me now.I stared back at each of them before glancing back at her."Are you hurt? What happened?" She inquired, clutching my hand."Nothing happened," I replied. My brows furrowed as I glimpsed at the perplexed look on each of their faces. I was certain they knew what had gone on. But, they were waiting to hear it from me.Sin's mother sniffled and narrowed her grey eyes at me. "You smell weird. Who have you been with? Where is my son?""He's out. And I smell the same way I always did," I said.I brought my hair closer to my nose as well as the collar of the dress I donned to sniff them.I smell the same. But, Sin's mother and his siblings had made it seem like I smell like shit.Even Sin, when he tugged me to him

    SINAfter scanning the environment for the second time tonight, whilst looking for the werewolf that had infiltrated my domain, I jumped into the room through the window.I do that all the time. I found it easier to get into the room that way. Also, I loathed using the doorway.I sighted Artemisia on the bed, fast asleep.I felt awful for hitting her. I never had a reason to do so to any of the women I had been with before.Besides, she had made me do it because it wasn't my intention.I wonder if she had gone out on purpose to annoy me or she just wanted to get some fresh air.Yet, no matter what her reasons were, it was still disobedience to me because I had warned her not to.Also, I thought of what might have happened to her if I hadn't noticed she was gone.Sighing, I moved away from the entrance to where she was laid on the bed. I groaned as her intoxicating scent wafted into my nostrils.Even when I was not close t

    ARTEMISIAThe cool wind caressed my face and I tossed about on the bed for a while, before getting up.My eyes drifted to the other side of the bed and I noticed Sin wasn't there. Maybe he had slept in the other room.Good for him.It wasn't like I was comfortable with sharing a room with him. I enjoy having a room to myself even back at home.I shared a room with Emma, but whenever she went for a sleepover as she often does in her friend's house, I enjoyed the serenity of the room and didn't have to worry about being kicked out of the bed.Also, I was glad he hadn't slept here because I didn't know how I would face him after what he had done to me last night.I couldn't remember the last time I had gotten spanked that way, because I hadn't!No matter what I did. I wasn't spoiled like Emma and I wasn't rebellious either.I was the goody-two-shoes in my group of friends and had often fantasized about a lot of things.

    ARTEMISIA I woke up again some hours later.I turned to glance at the time on the wall clock that was above the headboard of the bed.10:00 AM I slept until the next morning. Normally, if I wasn't suffering from a hangover, I would have woken up two times before morning came. I was that weird. Most times, I didn't know the reason for waking up at that particular time. Whilst sometimes, it was due to nightmares. However, I was glad that none happened, or maybe it did, and I couldn't remember.Sighing, I glanced around the room and I glimpsed a pink sticky note which was attached to the nightstand. “Eat.” My stomach chose the time to grumble, and I winced as I felt a twinge at my side. “I need to eat,” I stated, placing the sticky note back where it was. I stepped down from the bed and walked to the bathroom. My head didn't feel as heavy as before, where it seemed like I was carrying the weight of the world. Also, I could see clearly. I clutched the faucet and twisted it. Water

    ARTEMISIAMy head thumped, and my temple throbbed as I came to.I saw Sin's head hovering over mine, and I glimpsed the alarmed look in his eyes.He breathed out when he noticed me staring at him. “Thank goodness you are awake! I thought you were dead.” “I know you hate me, but don't think you can get rid of me easily.” I winced, rubbing my neck. He chuckled, shaking his head.Despite how awful I was feeling, I smiled.My brows creased whilst staring at him. I blushed as I noticed him doing the same, but my eyes didn't leave his.His hand moved to touch a strand of my hair, but he retracted it almost immediately. He hopped down from the bed, striding towards the wardrobe.He flung it open and grabbed the shirt his hand came into contact with first.“Where are you going?” I asked as he walked towards the door whilst adjusting the top button of the t-shirt he had slipped into.He turned and glanced at me. “Are you missing my company already?” He asked with a smirk on his face.“Never,

    ARTEMISIA “Hey.” I flashed a smile towards the platinum blonde that was carrying a toddler.She looked to be in her last trimester, and I was told she was Sin's distant family wife.We were having a girls' day out and discussing the past event.I learnt about what happened to Emma and Adrina the night after Sin and I made love. We had taken the night to reminisce and even the day after.It had been a joyous reunion not only for me but for everyone in the pack.I was happy, overly happy to be back home.I wonder what would have happened if I stayed a day in Chase's pack.Sin had told me he lost hope and wanted to give up on everything after he assumed I was dead.I wonder who did it- stained my cloth with blood to make it look like I died. Perhaps it was Chase. I recalled he had been trying to make me stay in his pack.Moreover, I was glad I arrived the day I did, and Goddess Trivia had urged me as well.“Did you hear from Emma again?” Julie asked.“I did,” I said with a sigh.I had f

    ARTEMISIAI didn’t know what happened and the reason I began crying.But I believed it was because of the past pain I kept inside of me.The hurt I had bottled inside of me and I hadn’t let go of it until now.“Artemisia?”I nodded as he asked. He took two steps toward me and I did the same.I wrapped my arms around him and inhaled his fresh scent.Just like the Sin I know. Although he was a bit thinner and kind of unkempt with his overgrown hair and beards.He still smells like Sin. I inhaled and exhaled slowly.“I am sorry,” I mumbled. Even though he didn’t hug me back, I only wanted to feel his warmth. I didn’t care about him hugging me back.I missed him so much and I doubt words were enough to say how much I felt at the moment.“I’m sorry,” I repeated. Then I raised my head and brushed my lips against his cheeks.“Artemisia.” Sin said again.“It is me. I came back to you. I want this to work again.”“You are not dead?”I refrained from the embrace and stared at him.The uncertaint

    ARTEMISIAA Month Later I smiled whilst glancing at my back. I left the Moonstone pack earlier, and I was glad it was on good terms.Likewise, I rejected Chase's offer and told him I'd rather be his younger sister.Although he waved it off and laughed stating siblings never kissed each otherBut it was fun being with him. I regained myself. I wasn't bitter like I was once whilst in Merene.And I had trained myself properly and took away the negative energy from me as I learnt from Mila and Goddess Trivia.Also, I learnt some new spells which might have come in handy whilst I was in Merene, and it would have enabled me to be more discerning.Goddess Trivia still appeared to me. And it was by her wisdom I was returning today.It hadn't been an easy task, but then, I didn't think it was even easier whenever I thought of all that I left behind.My home, my new family, and my mate, Sin.I wonder how he was faring. Perhaps, he had moved on and forgotten about me…“No,” I mumbled to myself.

    SINOut of everything that I wanted to hear from her, I wasn't expecting that. But again, it didn't surprise me.Nonetheless, I was curious how Laurent, and she, had done it. I hadn't seen her with Laurent before. They never spoke.It was confusing, and I didn't want to assume anything yet as well because, for all I know, Emma was a liar.“Laurent?!”Adrina was the first to break the silence.“He did,” Emma affirmed. “I am sorry, Sinclair. Everything I did, I didn't know why I did it, and I wish I could see Artemisia to apologize.” She fell to the ground and sobbed harder.“Bitch!” Adrina yelled. “Tell me you are lying about what happened between you and Laurent. He didn't father that bastard in you?”“He did,” Emma said. “I wish I can say otherwise.”Adrina bristled and yanked on her hair. “I am doomed.”I did not know what she was talking about, and listening to Emma's tears got on my nerves.I sighted Laurent strolling towards where we were at the end of the hallway.He halted as hi

    SINI grimaced as I came awake. My head pounded and I winced.I groaned, feeling the sour taste in my mouth and shielding the bright light streaming into the room with my hand.As I lifted myself slowly, I rested my back on the headboard of the bed.I didn't know how much I drank yesterday, but I was certain Laurent had dragged my butt back home after taking too much blood.I frowned, recalling everything. It had been a while since I went on a killing spree and since Artemisia's arrival; I hadn't engaged in such activities, and I had vowed never to do so or show off my monstrous side.Now that she was gone, I believed it was coming back. It was only a matter of time before it hit me full force.And I would turn into a monster. A full-blown berserker.I let my head rest in my hands for some time before climbing down from the bed and trudging to the bathroom.I turned on the tap and splashed some water on my face to keep myself sober.However, I feel light-headed and as if I was walking

    SIN“Hey.”I grimaced as a blonde whispered into my ear.She wrapped her arms around me and pushed her breasts to my back.My eyes strayed to Laurent, and I shook my head.He shrugged and mouthed, “I didn’t call her.”“I thought you were lonely, and I wanted to keep you company.” She murmured into my ears.I didn’t know why. Her voice made my skin crawl and made me feel like throwing up.I wanted to shove her hands off of me, but I didn’t want to be rough.Also, she reminded me of Emma. I guess it was the way she spoke and the silly scent of her that got on my nerves.“How about we play a game?”“Sorry, darling.” I said, “I’d prefer to be alone.”“Don’t be a spoilsport.” She said, “I came here willing, and letting my friends mock me would be awful. Do you want that?”“I want to be alone.” The words were on the tip of my tongue, but I bit on it.I doubted she’d let me go, even if I told her.She seemed like a clinging type. The one who never relented and wanted what they couldn’t get.J

    ARTEMISIA POVI didn't know what to say to him.However, looked as though he would break down if I rejected his advance as I stared him in the eyes.But then, lying to him wasn't what I could do, and I didn't want to lead him on either. That would be awful if I did the former.“Perhaps doing this will make you see how I feel about you.”I huffed as I felt a tug on my hand. My hand spread on his shirt as he held the small of my waist and his head dipped.“What…” The word I wanted to say died in my throat as his lips covered mine.He was kissing me.Chase was freaking kissing me.But how do I feel?My heart raced, and I scrunched up his shirt, pushing my body into his.I heard him moaning as the kiss deepened.That was when I got back to my senses.“W-what…?” I stuttered as I nudged him.“I'm sorry,” Chase said, darting out of the room and leaving me speechless.My hand went to my lips, and I pinched myself.Goodness, I had kissed him, and it wasn't a dream.I didn't know the reason I le

    SINI paced around the room and sighed. No sign of Artemisia yet, and it was going to be a week now.I could barely think straight as I centred all my thoughts on her, and it annoyed me I wasn't discerning enough the night she ran.I blamed myself each day for not chasing Emma away from the room as soon as I noticed her.Heck, I blamed myself for entertaining her shenanigans.I blamed myself for letting her stay more than her visit.The first time Artemisia had changed her attitude towards her, I should have sent her packingBut then, I hadn't because of Artemisia.I thought she could use a sister and friend in a foreign land.But she had destroyed everything. She freaking did it without caring about the lives at stake.I grasped the wine glass filled with bourbon and tossed it towards the door.“Sinclair!”My eyes collided with Emma as she stepped into the room in a tight, mid-length dress.It showed her baby bump, which was getting huge, and her ample breasts were on display.“You co
