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“Wait!” I hollered as I sighted a red-haired girl from afar.The figure halted and turned slowly towards me. Her face was down, and her long hair covered it, concealing her identity.However, I didn't need to see her face to confirm the identity of the person I had seen.A smile lit up my face as I skipped toward her.“It's been a while,” I said, and my eyes strayed towards the sky.I breathed out as the cool air caressed my face and I gazed back at the girl.“What is going on? Everything has been quiet lately.”I attempted to strike a conversation between us. Yet, she was mute, and she hadn't raised her head to stare at me.I noticed the long dress she donned was stained with dirt. As if she had been in a fight with someone in the mud.“Goddess Artemis?”Her face came up, and I wished it hadn't because what I saw in her eyes, I didn't think I'd be able to forget.The fury in the once beautiful blue eyes which had turned icy blue couldn't be neglected. Her radiant face altere

ArtemisiaA sweet fragrance wafted into my nostrils as soon as I stepped into what seemed like a dungeon of some sort.Warmth enveloped me and I let out a sigh as I stepped further in.My eyes wandered around the quiet hallway and I noticed some inscriptions on the wall, which was illuminated by the torch placed at the top of the wall.My brows creased, and my hands stretched out to touch each inscription. I didn't know what it meant, but I felt drawn to it.“I never thought I'd see someone like you here.”Swirling, my eyes landed on Adrina. Her eyes stayed on mine and a smirk formed on her face.I snorted, “Fancy seeing you too. If I knew you'd be here, I would not have come.”“It means nothing to me.” Adrina shrugged. She stepped toward me and her hand moved to touch my hair.I swatted it before she could do so.“The only thing I like about you is your hair. It's beautiful and just like fire.”“I hate yours.” I scowled.Adrina chuckled, shrugging. “Be appreciative for once…”“Hey!”I

SIN “How dare you?!” “What do you mean by how dare me?” Emma asked back. She glared and folded her arms. “I don't care if you are married or not. I am pregnant, and you are responsible. I won't hide the truth from you if that is what you want!” “Nothing happened between us,” I said calmly. I paced to the window and back to where she stood. “You are not conscious to know that.” Emma pointed out. Emma was pregnant? I couldn't stop thinking about what she said. She was pregnant with my child. How possible was that when nothing happened between us? “No.” I shook my head. I refuse to believe anything she says because most of her words were lies, and she was a manipulator. “Emma…” “Don't Emma me!” She scowled, slapping my hands away as I attempted to touch her. “Don't even think I'll abort it. I'd never do such a thing, and I am keeping the child if you want it or not!” “Abort what?!” I let out a sharp intake of breath as Artemisia stepped into the room. How much had she hea

ARTEMISIA Days went by, and I visited the dungeon each time to practice with the witches. Also, initiation night was around the corner and I needed my power, which seemed dormant, to show forth as it would be a rite of passage for me. Although Mila didn't say it was necessary, I wanted to, as I didn't want the others to feel as if I was treated differently. Again, the prophecy about the moon was becoming clearer; Goddess shall rise to help the chosen one in the quest for the moon and a rift between siblings shall bring the rise of nature. It was barely six months since I arrived in Merene and everything was in disorder. As the goddess Artemis had referred to me as the chosen one, I believed I was and needed to carry out the quest entrusted to me. However, no goddess had risen to help me bring forth my power. Not even Artemis, who wanted me to bring the moon at all costs. How could I do it without my powers? I was pregnant, and yet, I feel as if I was not. My tummy was as flat a
