Semua Bab Alpha Sin: Bab 1 - Bab 10

“Artemis,” the stranger repeated, stroking his smooth chin. “Intriguing.”I managed a small smile on my face and stepped away from him reluctantly before Julie began to bug me.Also, I didn't want to freeze to death. It was better to avoid it than stay out with a stranger who might not be interested in me.As soon as I got inside, I groaned as I remembered I had forgotten to do something.“I didn't even ask him for his name. But he knew mine.”Maybe it wasn't a big deal to other girls.However, it was to me.I had found someone that attracted me. Someone I would like to be in contact with again. Yet, I had lost it because of a drunk Julie.I glared at her sleeping figure. She dozed off instantly as soon as I laid her on the brown couch, which was the only vacant seat in the house since the party-goers had passed out on the other three.I walked towards the entrance and squinted to check if I would see the stranger again.I went outside further and scanned the area whilst standing near

ARTEMISIAI sighed, then sat on the chair that was in front of the vanity.I stood again and paced around the room.I walked to the window and noticed a few cars parked in front of the cathedral building, which was not far from our house.The cathedral, I was going to be married off today to a total stranger. The place, might I say, I was going to detest for the rest of my life because it was sealing my fate.I walked back to my chair without paying attention to the new arrival that came in a limo.I knew all of them were my parent's friends. My mom, especially.We were part of an aristocratic family. Technically, I was a lady since my dad was an Earl, even though he chose to live elsewhere instead of the estate I had been told was part of his inheritance.Anyway, I didn't mind where he picked to live since we were doing fine, and I didn't like being called any title.They had teased me a lot in Lone Oaks High because most of the students believed I was lying and couldn't be part of a

SINI tugged at my tie again as she stepped closer to me.I clenched my hands into a fist and gritted my teeth as my body reacted to her.I wanted to get this over with. The ceremony and all. But the priest and everything seemed slow suddenly.If given the opportunity, I would dart out of the cathedral without a second thought. I didn't care if I would get my mother mad in the process. At least, it would be better than staying next to her.I was aware werewolves couldn't control whom they mate with. Or worst, imprint on.But, I believed I should be able to control mine because I had spent years practising how to control my heightened emotion especially when the full moon was out since I triggered my curse on my eighteenth birthday.The memory was still fresh in my mind, and I was sure it was one of the things I would never forget because it was a part of me now.“You may kiss the bride.”My head snapped towards the priest as the word slipped out of his mouth.I glanced at my bride whil

ARTEMISIAI was alone again when Julie left to take care of some stuff.Although she didn't tell me what it was, I guessed it was about boys.I had noticed she was staring at one of the guests in a somewhat sexy way and she had excused herself to go attend to him.I gagged as I imagined what they could be doing right now.Sighing whilst shaking my head to clear the thoughts of Julie and her maybe newfound sexual partner out of my mind, I sat on the chair quietly whilst observing my surroundings for the first time.The decoration had been done in my favourite colour which was lavender.Even though I was a girly girl, I wasn't quite interested in the colour pink.Rather, I found it overly revolting. At first, it didn't disgust me, until people began to think I was an airhead due to the colour I chose to wear often. Also, the colour of my hair might have contributed to it.I let in a deep breath as the cool wind caressed my face. I wonder if my parents had go

ARTEMISIAI awoke with a start.My eyes darted around the room as I tried to recall the reason my heart was thumping fast.I was aware I had a nightmare. But, just like every other night, I couldn't remember what I had dreamt about.Sighing, I gripped my phone that was underneath my pillow and checked what the time was.I noticed it was only a few minutes past 10 which meant, I had slept after lying on the bed and it was only for a few minutes."Geez." I groaned whilst rubbing my tummy as it grumbled. I realized I hadn't eaten anything since after the wedding was done today.I had been thinking of what to do to get me out of the situation I was in, to think about food.I stepped out of the room to the kitchen which was together with the living room. My hand found the switch on the wall, light flooded into the room as I clicked on it.My eyes dimmed and I blinked several times before they got accustomed to the brightness.
