Alpha Sin 21
SINI groaned whilst stretching. I clutched the half-empty bottled water that was underneath a bench in the garden, uncapped it, and downed the content before going on with what I was doing.The skin on my neck prickled and my back hurt as I felt her presence. Since we had been intimate, the desire to be by her side had grown immensely.I hadn't felt that way with anyone, not even with my ex that I had marked.I didn't know leaving the side of a mere human, which I didn't even like but had marked, would cause me to feel pain.She was the reason I had left the room earlier. It was becoming awkward, and I had also feared that I might do something awful to her if I stayed.Although I didn't feel the emotion I felt with Adrina towards Artemisia, I panicked when she fell unconscious after marking her.That instant, I had thought of a lot of things that happened during marking, but none of the stories I heard had said anything about collapsing.Even Adrina hadn't fainted. I wonder if it was

ARTEMISIA“Today was quite tiring.” I yawned whilst stretching out on the bed. My body ached, but I did nothing major since I woke up, which was strange.Maybe if taking a walk around Merene with Emma and Julie could count as hard work, it would make sense.Compared to what Sin had been doing back at the yard, mine was minor. Yet, I was the one with a sore body.My eyes strayed to Sin as he stepped out of the bathroom. He wrapped a tiny white towel around his slim waist and my tongue slipped out to moisten my lips reflexively whilst remembering what was underneath.My cheeks reddened, and I shook my head as the image of me bent over the bed infiltrated my mind.I didn't like him, so I shouldn't be having naughty thoughts about him, I reminded myself.It was silly. But, I couldn't help myself. With the way he looked like a freaking sex god, I couldn't stop having inappropriate thoughts of him doing wicked things to my body.“Well, Mrs. Steele.” Sin said with an amused smile. “May I know

ARTEMISIAI darted into the foreboding woods. I ran as fast as my legs could take me, and occasionally I glanced at my back to see if what I was running away from had caught up with me.I didn't dare to stall, since I knew I would be an appetizing meal for the beast if I did.Leaping over a chunk of wood that was on my path, I let out a wince as my leg got stuck into a hole that I hadn't noticed in front of me.Also, I heard a snap. I didn't need to look to know it was a trap that had caught my leg. My nose twitched and the scent of blood wafted into my nostrils.“No!” I shook my woozy head frantically whilst trying to chase away the dizziness that was building at the corner of my eyes.My head reeled, and my heart palpitated. “I didn't come this far to become unconscious in the middle of nowhere,” I said.Earlier, everything had been great. Emma, Julie, and I had taken a stroll around Merene and had arrived back at the palace later than usual.Nothing seemed out of the ordinary as I s

ARTEMISIA“What is that?”“What does it look like?” I retorted, staring at Sin.“I don't know.” He mumbled. “Besides, it's irritating when you answer a question with another question.”I shrugged whilst continuing with what I was doing. “I didn't say you could ask me a question, either.”Sin shook his head as he walked toward the massive mahogany wardrobe. “You seemed grumpy this morning. I doubt if it's because of the nightmare you had, or maybe that is the way you wake up each morning.”“I hadn't noticed because I barely sleep in this room.” He added. “What is going on with you?”“The thought of you and your presence makes me grumpy,” I replied, scowling.To be honest, I didn't know the reason I was. After using my phone the moment he left last night, I had eventually gone back to sleep.When I woke, my mood had been off, and I chose to do something worthwhile instead of sulking around the room.I doubt it was because of the nightmare, as it wasn't my first time having it.I believe

ARTEMISIAI trudged towards the locked door as a knock sounded on it.“Ma'am, this is for you.” A man, maybe in his early twenties, with a baseball cap on said. I couldn't see his face. So, I concentrated on what was in his hand.A smile brightened my face as I glanced at the delivery man that had brought in my order.I didn't know a pizza could get delivered in Merene. Merene was farther away from home, and I wasn't able to locate where I was exactly on the map. Or maybe my map reading knowledge wasn't sound enough.I had asked Sin, who had ignored me as usual and left without saying anything to me.Ever since the event this morning when he had seduced me, I hadn't seen him in the room. But I had caught a glimpse of him with Emma.Even though I didn't want to dwell too much on the compromising position they had been in because I was sure my sister would never betray me by doing some naughty things I had conjured in my mind.Seeing them from afar had infuriated me. I wondered if they h

ARTEMISIAI didn't know what happened after Sin gripped me. But, I was told I passed out. I had been out since an hour ago and when I woke, I saw Emma and Julie by my side tending to an injury I didn't know I had got.I groaned whilst sitting up. My body was sore, and it felt like I had been dragged out from underneath a truck.“You need to lay back down,” Julie said. “Your husband's order.” She added.Husband's order?Then it all came back to me. Everything that had happened, I remembered all.Oh god, my husband was a werewolf. Sinclair Steele was a freaking Werewolf!Okay, maybe he wasn't. But, not every human casually stuck their hands into a beast's chest pulling the heart out.I gagged whilst the image of Jamie's heart dripping with crimson liquid infiltrated my mind. Leaping out of the bed as the nausea I had been attempting to curb surfaced, I dashed into the bathroom and emptied the contents of my stomach into the toilet.Blood, Jamie, pizza, werewolf.I hurled more as images o

SINI growled whilst staring at the hole I had made through the wall.The distressed look on Artemisia's face when I saw her running surfaced in my mind. She had looked so frightened that I wanted to punch the one who terrified her.At first, I thought she just fled out of the room since she could be sometimes weird. Until I glimpsed her torn clothes.Was the bastard trying to take advantage of her? Under my freaking roof?!He should have known before coming here because I was sure if the b*st*rd had thought things through, he wouldn't have.Artemisia was not as safe as I had thought. It was because of her I had fled to come to Merene. I didn't want any harm to befall her, even if she meant nothing to me.I wasn't ready to answer some silly questions about her well-being. Hence, the reason I had brought her here.Also, I believe since Merene was my domain, and she was my queen, the people present would guard her with their last breath.I wondered where everyone was. Why weren't they at
Alpha Sin 28
ARTEMISIAAs soon as Sin left the room, I took the pills that were on the nightstand. It relieved the pain I was feeling.I climbed down from the bed slowly as I felt the need to use the toilet.I walked towards the white sink after doing the deed to wash my hands, and I let out a moan whilst cool water wetted them.Also, I winced. I glanced at my hand to notice an injury that was already turning purple.A grimace escaped my parted lips as I stared at the ugly mark lining my wrists.Jamie must have gripped me too hard for my skin to be bruised. Even though his grip hadn't been rough, I was sure the markings would show due to how pale my skin was. Besides, I hadn't noticed because I was trying to escape from him.Sighing, I kneaded my temple as it thumped. Perhaps I should rest more, as Sin had suggested.I wondered where he had gone. He had stormed out in annoyance. It almost felt as if he was going to murder anyone that had put me in the current position I was in.My heart warmed as I
