Artemisia

“I can't believe he'll do that to me!”

“I can't either,” Julie said. She sighed, sitting on the sofa whilst I paced around the room.

I kicked the door, paced towards the window and breathed in. I let it out slowly, then glared at nothing in particular.

It was a good thing when we came inside, Sin was nowhere around the room, I wonder what I would have done if he was inside.

I was still in shock about what I had seen and found it hard to accept.

I didn't think I could ever be backstabbed by someone close to me. Not even Sin, whom I had come to trust!

My parents had sold me off to him, I shouldn't be surprised Emma would do the same as betraying me since she had the same gene as them!

But Sin…

“You need to keep calm, Artemisia.”

“Keep calm?!” I shouted, with my hands raised.

“I know if you were the one, you'd have done something drastic back there. I know what you can do.”

“That is right,” Julie said. “You need to calm down to think of what to do next. Pacing would do you no go

    ArtemisiaI groaned, shielding my eyes from the ray of the sun. I didn't know who let the curtains up.I was certain I didn't because I had slept with it down.Sitting up on the bed, I ran a hand through my dishevelled hair whilst I gazed around the room.My eyes were just as they were always whenever I cried. Swollen and dried from having cried too much the night before. And I dared not check the mirror to see how they were because I was sure I'd be terrified by what I'd see.I patted the side where Sin often slept, it was cold to my touch.Last night, I waited for him until I couldn't any more. So, I slept off.Feeling the part he sleeps on meant he hadn't come last night.Although I was meaning to talk with him and see if everything would turn out fine, I was glad he didn't come because seeing him again would make me break down and that was the last thing I wanted.Stepping to the bathroom, I walked towards the sink to wash my face.I grimaced whilst I saw how horrible I looked.

    ArtemisiaThe next few days were the worst. And I wished I could just die. Or maybe run back to where I had come from, but I know that I wouldn't be welcomed.When my parents sold me off, they had done so with all my rights. So, I was bound to Sin forever.After the confrontation in the garden, Sin punished me for confronting him. He didn't even mind the condition I was in, he had shoved me and chained me in the werewolf room he used in transforming.He had forced me to watch himself transform.But, he had kept me at a safe distance, which was surprising.He had kept me there, so he wouldn't hurt me, I believe. Still, he kept on treating me like some piece of junk he got from the gutter.I sighed, rubbing my side. These days, my body ached due to the constant abuse from him.He snapped at me in front of everyone now. Whenever I went to the meeting hall, he'd glowered at me and yammered for me to leave.No one knew what had got into him to act that way.It had been an awkward experience

    SinWhack!Whack!I heard the sound of the punching bag as I thumped harder on it. The bag swirled and dust poured out of it, enveloping the area before it drifted out of the tall window.“Arggg!” I yelled whilst punching harder. I could feel my hands giving out and my body weakened, yet I didn't stop.The pain I had caused Artemisia was far worse than what I was feeling.I reckon she was in the room, huddled somewhere crying herself to sleep, like every night.Even though I was aware of all that I was doing to her. The pain I caused her for no reason. I couldn't help myself.I could not bring myself to stop.Now, I believe I was just like the monster I was before she came. She had made me see the good side of me. She had made me believe I was not a monster.Still, it wasn't so.I was a monster! A freaking monster who was not capable of loving anyone.I didn't deserve her. She deserved better. I didn't think any amount of apology could take away the guilt I feel inside me. Even if she

    SinAs soon as I finished in the training room, I stepped towards the room.I saw her body tremble, and I thought she was crying until I saw her turn towards me.Her eyes were closed, and she flung her hand across the pillow, hugging it right to herself.Jealousy burned within me as I watched the interaction she was having with the pillow. I should be the one wrapping my arms around her, not the other way round.I walked away from the room as the urge to take her penetrated my mind. She was so pure and ravishing with her red hair scattered around the pillow.Yet, I couldn't force her. Or rather, I didn't want to do what my tainted mind wanted from me.“Hey, darling.”I turned slowly towards Emma. I was still close to the door, and I tilted my brows whilst gazing at her. Ever since the night Artemisia had caught me in bed with her, I had distanced myself from her.I made sure not to move in the same direction she was in and tried to avoid her as well during the day.“I've been searching

    ARTEMISIA “I missed this,” I mumbled.“I-I…” Sin stuttered.“You don't have to say anything, just hold me,” I said.I breathed out as his arms wrapped around me.Emotion streamed through me for having him so close. I couldn't remember the last time we had been in this position.He had refused to come closer to me, and he had treated me like a plague.Now, he was holding me in his arms! It was unbelievable.I blinked several times and discreetly pinched my arms to see if I was dreaming. I winced at the sharp pain I felt.“I'm sorry Artemisia.” Sin said, and I felt his body tremble.I frowned before gazing up at him.His head and shoulder drooped. I touched his jaw to tilt his head, so I could stare into his eyes. He had bags and dark circles underneath each eyelid. It was as if he had not been sleeping ever since we were having issues.His lower lips quivered, and it opened. I thought he was going to say something. But nothing came out of it.“I am sorry.” He sobbed, clutching me to h

    Artemisia“The moon is stolen.”“Stolen?” How was that even possible?I thought the moon was a stationary object which couldn't move. Maybe my knowledge of geography was rusty. But hearing this right now says otherwise.And with the look on everyone's faces, it seemed like that was the case.“Darling, you don't need to worry your pretty head about this.” Laurent grinned.“Shut up,” I mumbled, then concentrated on what Mila was saying.“The moon has been stolen, and the goddess isn't answering us. We werewolves, we are on the receiving end since, without the moon, we are nothing. Our wolf's form refused to come out, and we are as powerless as mere humans.”“Worst is, the people who came to terrorize us some days ago will be back again.” She said, sighing.“Again?”The room was silent as Sin strode in. I felt everyone's eyes on him as he got closer.He shrugged, walking towards me. He ignored the eyes boring into him and concentrated on me alone.“Hey,” I mumbled, leaning into him as he

    ARTEMISIA“What is going on with you? I mean, you have been moody all morning.”I stared at Sin as his back hunched over. Likewise, I thought he was fine after the meeting, but he had gone back to his usual self and I don't know if I should feel scared of the constant change in his attitude or not.I was now aware the moon contributed to part of it. Yet it was as if it was only Sin that was affected the most. Because he was the only one exhibiting the characteristics of what they had listed, the lost moon contributed to.“I'm fine.” He grunted, then stood abruptly from where he sat.I grasped his hand as he attempted to move past me.I felt his hands clenched, and his shoulders tensed up, his eyes travelled to my face and I could see the agony in them.“You need to tell me, Sin. You promised not to keep anything away from me. Yet you are doing otherwise.”He groaned, shaking his head. “I don't want to hurt you.”“You are not hurting me already,” I mumbled.I caressed the stubble on his

    SINAs I tugged Artemisia towards the room we often shared, I didn't know the reason for it. All I wanted was to take her away from Laurent.Even though all that he told her was the truth, I believe he was putting her in more fear than was necessary. He was trying to drive her away from me.He had freaking told me that a while ago, that he'd make sure he paid me back for every hurt I did to him.To be honest, I couldn't remember what I did or if I had offended him. I assumed he was just being his nasty self.Still, I tried to make peace. He didn't want that and rather preferred tormenting me. I didn't know what he wanted with Artemisia as well. All I knew was I wished to damage his face, so he would not see her any more, much less talking to her.But that would only be possible if I plucked out his heart.Killing him was not what I wanted. Even as he was being a jerk, he was my brother and protecting him from harm's way was my utmost responsibility. Just as was Artemisia and my other f

    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
