SIN“What were you discussing with that…” Adrina trailed off, wrinkling her nose. She frowned whilst staring at Emma, who was still in the spot I left her.She had the same look on her face as Adrina and I doubt if they were both in the same place, a fight, or maybe a showdown would ensue.Adrina was never one to back down, and Emma, too.“It's none of your business,” I said, attempting to leave, but she intercepted me.“It is. If you liked it or not, I'm still your freaking mate and not some nameless human from nowhere.” She gritted her teeth, then pointed to her neck to show me the fading mark.“What do you want, Adrina? You know we can't be together because of the prophecy, and you promised to move on.” I kneaded my temple as a headache began to form.“I did?” She asked, furrowing her brows. “I must be delusional to have promised you that.” She added with an eye roll.“You promised and swore. It is sealed, and you coming back to me means you are breaking it.”“Seeing as the bond mar

ARTEMISIAI rolled on the bed, not wanting to stand up because of the warmth. I had no choice but to, as the urgent need to use the toilet.I leapt out of bed as I couldn't hold it any longer. Luckily, I got to the toilet in time before I could embarrass myself.Whilst rubbing my tummy that felt bloated before, I let out a relieved sigh.I trudged to the mirror, glancing into it. It was a habit I had developed since I realized what the mark on my neck meant.Grinning, I caressed it.It still glowed and not fading as I had imagined. I was told if it began fading; it meant either my mate was forgetting about me or he had rejected me without my notice.Yet, I had to agree to the rejection as I was told for it to fade away completely.I breathed out as my mind drifted to Sin. I wondered what he was doing at the moment. Maybe he was thinking about me as I was.But I doubt it.I missed him, even though I wouldn't admit it in his presence. I missed having him around. Broody or not, he had gro

ARTEMISIA“Hello, Queenie.”Laurent smirked as I ran into him in the hallway.I rolled my eyes at the sarcasm dripping in his voice. It was his usual way of referring to me. At least it was better than him staring at me like I had fallen off from somewhere and tagging me Sin's Queen rather than my given name.He had said I was too inexperienced to be a queen to him. When he said inexperienced, he meant, I wouldn't be able to handle the supernatural world as time went on. That I would flee in no time.He said so in front of Sin, which had ticked him off.I wasn't bothered. It would not be the first time Laurent was making snide remarks about me.Ignoring him was the best I could do, and I realized doing so also made him furious. But then, whether he was furious or not, I didn't care about his feelings.Swiftly, he gripped my hand before I could round the corner.I gasped as he yanked me, “Let go of me!”“Stop acting as if you are a mighty human because you happened to be Sin's mate.”“W

“Sister dearest.” Emma grinned as I passed by her in the hall.“Emma,” I mumbled, ignoring the scorn in her voice. We weren't still talking to each other like before since the event that happened back in her room.I was fine with it, as I didn't need to hear her constantly talk about my husband.“It's a surprise to see you quite cheerful this morning. I mean, you are always grumpy.” She mumbled, scrunching up her face.I rolled my eyes at her assertion; I wasn't always grumpy. I guessed it was when Sin and I often fought with each other. She was talking about. I usually look furious and took it out on others.But ever since we sorted our difference, everything seemed better. Although not better, as there were times he lost his cool.I know it wasn't his intention to hurt me. And I wished I could help him deal with his raging emotion. But it was better to leave an enraged Sin alone than get in the way, which might seem risky, as he frequently goes overboard.“Well, I noticed you aren't

SINDamned Nightcrawlers!‘Nightcrawlers’ were the term used for nocturnal supernatural creatures. Especially the werewolves since they shifted only at the full moon and could only be seen when it was dark.They seldom moved by the day in their wolf form.The vampires, too, were in that category. Without a spell to protect them from the ray of the sun, they wouldn’t be able to move out.There were many others as well.A twig snapped and my thoughts shifted back to what was before me.Artemisia’s scent still lingered in the air even though it was faint. It was a reminder that she was here.Why did I ever agree to be out with her?I knew something was off the moment we entered the woods. Even before then, the air had been chillier, and the moon was weirdly brighter than normal.I should have talked her out of it, but I guessed I couldn’t resist the way she stared at me whilst pleading. I found it adorable. The way her almond turquoise blue eyes enlarged and how she pushed her lips forwar
