All Chapters of Curse Of Wine & Belladonna: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

What's it really about having the name? Be a person? Being able to walk in the moonlight and the sunlight, run through a green field or through the cold concrete roads of the cities, what is it? How to know if we're really alive and breathing, pulsing, decomposing, recreating. How do we know? Everything was and is a breath, that moment that passes without anyone at least noticing. Why was everything like this? The demon looked up at the sky, capturing every moment he could keep in his mind that he would live for hundreds of years. Counting, and recounting, slowly how many stars could save.What was freedom? Count stars sitting in a mausoleum? Below his line of sight, there were people partying whatever was important to humans. The demon didn't call, it would soon pass and everything would come back the same boring calm as before. And then he would look back at the sky and count the stars again. Consequently it would get lost during the process and start over and over and over again.

When Artemisia woke up, her body hurt like it was thrown down the stairs. The cold dominated her room, even though after taking a look around the room he did not notice any of the three open windows. She thought about going back to sleep, as the sunlight had barely begun to paint the clouds.Then, turning her face on the soft pillow, Artemisia tried to go back to sleep."No, no, no!” A thick voice almost screamed, scaring the young woman if she wasn't so tired. A cold hand held her face and patted the girl on the cheek. "You're not even crazy to go back to sleep! Open your eyes, Absinthe!”Artemisia felt like lightning had struck her body, causing her heart to almost leap from her chest. In one jump the young woman sat on the bed, feeling the energy running through each part gave body and mind. She turned her face seeing Geon sitting next to her, with a slightly rabid frown and a blue suit so rich that she looked like a baron."Do you know how hard it was to get in here?! You look awf

Breakfast went surprisingly well. Once Artemisia slammed the book into Geon's forehead, there was no going back to the little chaos that had been brewing before. The demon looked at her as he toyed with one of the cookies the goat maid had brought, the demon's eyes were fully directed at her, not wanting to miss any measly movement from Artemisia.This was starting to get uncomfortable. The young woman knew she was beautiful, the fact that her hair was as light as a ray of sunlight was what caught her most attention, however, she had already gotten used to it as the years passed. And people didn't tend to look at her either as if she were the last meal they would have on earth, the thing that would satisfy the hunger of the person who imprisoned her with their eyes. The way Geon looked at her was a little scary.“Umn... So... What makes me so... appetizing to demons? Like, is everyone going to feel like eating me?” Artemisia asked as she flipped through a random book on Delfine's shelf

"Galia is one of the most cursed territories since the Fall of the Stars over two thousand years ago. Amazingly, it's also one of the safest places, especially Lutetia, at least a hundred years ago."Leonore began to speak Artemisia trying to remember the history classes she had. She remembered very well that she had decorated the map of Galia on account of the properties of the Carmesim, who had many other names. But I couldn't really remember any class the tutor talked about the origin of the Carmesim. The only records they had were fifty years after the family's fame began."However, things began to get strange after a few decades of the arrival of the Carmesims. Demons and devils were seen much more easily, the river that cuts through the city began to spread such a dense and extensive mist. Everything began to change, but the only place that remained intact was the Hill of Stars, which is now your property."Artemisia looked closely at the woman, things weren't making much sense

"To me, this mansion smells like sun. I can't explain why it smells like that, it's just sun. A yummy smell that wakes me up in the morning and lasts until I wake up the next day after a nightmare."Artemisia was hanging out with Geon at the botanical fair. Even if she was still digesting the new diet she would need to adopt, it wouldn't hurt to at least season the meat. Sure? She prayed to the gods that she didn't...The blonde looked at the demon who walked casually next to her, he looked at the stalls of the fair with the same fascination as a child. The impressed look attracted the sellers with various objects. One woman offered a necklace with an amethyst as big as a heart, another salesman stretched out before the two a ring with a sun inside the moon, it was really beautiful, but seven hundred thousand réis was definitely a joke. The ring clearly wasn't as real as he wanted to sell. At that moment, Geon was looking at glass sculptures as small as a coin. She had to admit
