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,

    ALLISON POVWhat could be worst than having a powerful witch point a deadly torch at you, calling you a cursed child on your joyous day?I doubt there was anything worst than that."She has the cursed mark!" Her voice was so loud it almost deafened me. I staggered backward as she moved towards me.Stumbling on my feet, I fell on the ground and stuttered. "W-what do you mean?"My wide eyes moved around the hall, and I saw everyone was frozen in place.It was as if time stopped, and only me and the great witch could move.She snarled. "This is no place for you, the evil one.""I am not evil!" I said firmly, offended by what she was saying to me.I didn't understand what was happening, but I wouldn't say I liked it.More so, what angered me the most was she had jerked me away from my wolf and accused me of what I didn't know of!"You are, and you shall die!" She said and pointed the torch at me once more.I saw it glow, and fire spewed out of it."Leave me alone!" My yelling helped those

    ALLISON POVI had forgotten what today was due to the appearance of the black werewolf.Today was my twentieth birthday celebration and a debut for all young werewolves like me. Also, it was a day to usher out our wolves and be blessed by the great witch.Wolf ushering ceremonies were initially for people who had just had their eighteenth birthday. I was past that age.I was absent from my ushering ceremony on my eighteenth birthday because I was in a coma for two years. I didn't know what happened, but I was told I was left lifeless at the house's entrance, and whoever left me had masked their scent.I kept having flashes about what had happened, yet I could barely remember.Again, I had met my wolf already, but I didn't know what she looked like physically, seeing as I never tried to bring her out. It wasn't as if I hadn't tried; I couldn't.And today was my best bet. I'd get to meet my wolf, Jacy, and unlock all the added benefits it was to bring forth one's wolf. Agility, enhanced

    CHASE POVI was given two months to find a mate, or I'd die a slow, painful death. So, I thought of capturing the first woman that came into view and locking her up in my room, beating her up until she agreed to mate with me, or declaring I was looking for a mate in my pack and watching a lot of women wait in line.But I wasn't a beater. I had never hit a woman before despite how annoying they were, and many of the women in my pack were only good as fúck buddies.Kicking at the carcass of the fox I had finished feasting on, I stared at the night sky as several howls resounded from afar.Standing up, I stretched my aching limbs and sniffled as a new scent wafted into the air.The hair on my body prickled, and my ears perked up.I dashed towards an opening and halted."Mate!" Ajax growled.I stared into my mate's eyes and doubted she knew who I was.Five hundred years of being hopeless, roaming the world, and searching for the cursed mate that was talked about in the prophecy.

    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
