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
ARTEMISIA “I know you have a lot of things to ask me, darling child, but I don't think now is the time, as I have limited time here.”It didn't startle me. All the goddesses kept saying the same thing whenever they appeared about not having time on their side, and the goddess with me was no exception.“Come.” She murmured, and I nodded.I stood abruptly and followed her out of the room, then I was at the front of the doorway once more. She stepped into the one with the sign of the water bearer, and I let out a breath.The room was the same as the first one, but this seemed less cosy and slightly cooler.“Do I need to explain who I am to you? I doubt so. I see the knowing look in your eyes already.”“You are the Goddess Trivia, otherwise known as the Goddess Hecate by the Greeks.”“Brilliant, child. But I'd prefer if you called me goddess Trivia.” She said.“I know who you are, but my question is, why are you here? I mean no offence, it was Artemis the first time asking me to get back
ARTEMISIAI let out a breath as I twisted my finger for the umpteenth time. My heart rammed in my chest and I bit my bottom lip and dug my feet into the soil so as not to dart out of the crowd because that was what ran through my mind.That was the only thing I could think of, run as fast as I could and not look back until I get to the entrance of the castle for fear of being caught.I didn't know why I was this nervous about what was happening.It wasn't like I was going to be killed, or maybe I was in a sort of funeral.I was at my initiation. Likewise, the other newbies which I met at the coven meeting, and none of them looked as uneasy as I was.None looked like they were about to dash out of the hall with the little opportunity they got.Besides, I was past the difficult stage of the initiation. I believe I shouldn't be nervous any more.But I couldn't help myself. It seemed like with each second I stayed out; the nervousness intensified.My eyes shifted from the elders of witches
ARTEMISIABrushing past me, Emma jetted out of bed and darted into the bathroom.I wrinkled my nose as the stench of vomit filled the air. The urge to barf as well infiltrated my mind, and I shoved the thoughts aside as well as took in two huge gulps of air.I couldn't recall the last time I threw up. I was glad the baby in me was at least treating me in a better way than the father.Sin had become distant again after the initiation ceremony. He had returned to his beastly self, and this time he didn't hesitate to lash out at me.It seemed my coming out as a witch made him more furious with me.I could see the hate in his eyes each time he stared at me.Although he had said he didn't hate me, and it wasn't his doing, I couldn't help but think it was.I was certain if he fought it hard enough, he would become victorious.Rather, he let himself get tossed about and used as a pawn.Most times, like now, I visit Julie to stay in their room when Sin was around. And leave for mine as soon as
ARTEMISIA “Pregnant?!” That was what I could stutter as I gazed at Emma in disbelief. Also, I didn't think I heard everything she said right. How could she be pregnant? I had nothing against it; I had never imagined she was that careless. I heard Sin's name, followed by a cackle from her. My brow tilted, and I folded my hands in front of me. “Who is the father? And do you think you are free to do whatever you want…” “Oh, please,” Emma cut me off with a wave of her hand. “I don't think you heard me right. Perhaps the initiation ceremony made you dumber. I said that your husband is the father of my unborn child!” My world crumbled faster than it should have. I was glad my hand still held the swivel chair because I was certain I would have collapsed from the shock. “W-what?” I gasped out. My breath stuck in my throat and I struggled to form sentences. My eyes flickered to Julie, who didn't look as shocked as I was. Perhaps she had heard the first word before I did. “What do you
ARTEMISIAI did not know how long I had been in the crossed-leg position, my favourite position now. All I knew was I didn't feel like standing from the spot I sat in.I let out a deep breath and clasped my palms in front of me.I felt nothing. Only the soft whistling of the wind that rustled the curtain and the warmth from the surrounding candlelight were the feeling that enveloped me.I was alone with no one to lean on.Yet, it was relaxing to know I was away from everyone. Away from the outside world and the reality of what my life was.The lies, betrayal, and all.Then it all came back to me.My teeth clenched as the memory I had been trying to shove aside surfaced. I bit my bottom lip as it trembled.Sin had cheated. He had freaking cheated on me with my little sister.I wanted to push out the thought, but it wasn't as easy as I expected.I had naively trusted him. Likewise, I thought he was different. He had shown me how callous he could be.I didn't know how I came to prefer him
ARTEMISIAA loud bang woke me up from my slumber, and I sat up on the bed. I rubbed at my eyes, letting out a moan as my temple throbbed.My eyes were puffy. I didn't need a mirror to see how horrible I looked at the moment, and it seemed like I had cried myself to sleep.Gazing around the room, my brows creased as I noticed the curtains were up. Because, most times, I often slept with my windows covered.Perhaps it was Julie. I was certain she had been in the room as I slept.I lurched as the door went ajar abruptly.“Julie!”“What now?” I murmured with a glare.“We are under attack.” She said breathlessly.“A-attack?” I stuttered, sitting up straight on the bed.“Ye…”The door unhinged before she could finish her statement.I tilted my brows as I gazed at her, then at the people who had barged into the room.Five men stood staring back at me.Why was it all the time I had a problem with Sin that we'd be under attack?Out of the five men that barged into the room, two surged forward.
ALLISON POVI was furious. I couldn't control the words I uttered. Or maybe I should have learned to restrain myself.And the audacity of him saying we were possibly mated after telling me I was only available to warm his freaking bed.He stared at me in shock. I guess he wasn't expecting all that I said, but then I wasn't as well. I think the pain from my foot added to it."I am not a philanderer," Chase said after a while. He turned his back to me and walked to the window."Then explain why you kissed Artemisia if you aren't," I mumbled, limping towards the door."I already told you I wanted to know how it feels. And where the fúck are you going?!"I heaved a breath, ignoring him. Hearing him repeat it was annoying. I guess I was never good enough for him in the first place. "Stay away from me, Chase...""That I can never do..." He swooshed towards me and rammed me into the wall. Not hard enough for it to hurt but hard enough for me to feel him."For some reason, I keep coming close
CHASE POVI glared around the opening and sniffed the air. Several scents surrounded the murky air, but I couldn't think of the one that had hurt my Alisson.My Allison?I was being possessive. I couldn't help it. But it makes me feel good.I moved to her side, and she stood up straight abruptly."Stay away from me!" Allison shouted.For someone that was hurt, she could still use her leg.Allison swatted a stake with her into the air and gritted her teeth while pointing the stake at me.I shook my head slightly, urging her to keep calm, but I doubted she understood what I meant.Regardless, I stood at a distance staring at her until she staggered forward.I rushed towards her but stopped as a werewolf jumped into the opening."I'm powerful!" Allison slurred. Almost immediately, she fell face flat to the ground.Shifting my gaze from her, I furrowed my brows as I turned to the werewolf before me.It wasn't a werewolf; I realised it was a werejaguar.Usually, werewolf species had differ
ALLISON POVThe darkness was all-consuming. It was a thick, suffocating veil that seemed to wrap around me like a cloak.I could feel it seeping into my bones, its icy tendrils creeping through my veins and filling me with a sense of despair.I had been running for what felt like an eternity, my feet stumbling over the rocky ground as I struggled to find my way. I had no idea where I was, but the fear gnawing at my stomach seemed to grow with each passing moment.Dashing out of the pack house at first light wasn't what I envisaged. But then, what had been happening for two days now wasn't what I had imagined.I should have listened to mother. I assumed she was being irrational and had brushed everything aside.But thinking about it now, I knew it was more than rational thought.Of course, I escaped with the help of my mother. I didn't know where exactly I was heading; leaving the pack alive was the only thing that had slipped into my mind.I jumped over several logs and gasped as my l
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. 'The cu
A DELTA FOR THE LYCAN KINGWhen her life got threatened by the great witch, Allison Stone, the Delta of the Blue Moon pack was forced to take refuge in the mysterious Alpha Chase's pack, whom she rejected. Allison realized they had some things in common; they were both cursed and running away from their respective pack. Both had the choice to mate with each other according to the prophecy or let the curse run its course and bring doom to the people around them. They settled on the former, and things were partially going great until she stumbled upon the secret he was hiding. Also, the reason for the grudges between him and her brother. Would she forgive him for keeping it away from her? A great war ensued in the heart of Merene, which needed the intervention of the two most mighty packs. How would Alisson convince her brother Chase wasn't who he believed him to be? And how would Chase make Sinclair believe he didn't do what he assumed he did?◍◍◍◍◍◍◍◍◍ALLISON POVWhat could be w

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
