INTERNAL SIN Internal Sin: 030
(KAI'S POINT OF VIEW)I stood on the forest floor, wide-eyed, as a sudden fire erupted, burning everything in its path and rapidly approaching me. Every muscle in my body refused to cooperate when I tried to move; it felt like I was firmly planted in my stance.I stared back at the fire, gulping as it got nearer and nearer. I slammed my eyes shut, predicting to be radiated in the next split second as my heart began to race and my skin itches horribly as fear gripped my neck. However, after what felt like a minute of waiting, nothing happened. Instead, I felt warm fingers delicately caressing my face, and a tide of fervor unravel throughout my body.Sluggishly, my eyes opened, then broadened at the sight of a familiar face."Ralph." Every part of him was glaring, and behind him, the forest burned to the ground and at the call of his name, he met my eyes and his eyes were also catching in flames. I flinched and finally, I was able to attain control of my body and moved away from him.

[KAI’S POINT OF VIEW]Ralph seemed to be having a blast with his new prominence and title as the new popular kid and the best in everything, Kyrell Johnson was now a thing of the past, as everyone seemed to have forgotten about him - even his so-called friends were now shamelessly shadowing Ralph like some lost pooches.As much as I was happy that I was no longer the object of bullying, being with Ralph also warranted me some attention that I detested more than anything, but looking at Ralph across the table as he conversed with his new friends, gleaming and too luminous for his own good, he loved the attention, and it was causing aversion in my stomach.“Hey, You are wasting your food.”Felix's words heaved me out of my state of thought, and I looked down at the food on my tray, which was no longer edible with how many times I’d stabbed the poor burger with a fork. With an exhalation, I pushed the tray away from me, and Felix passed me an incredible and vague gaze. I poked my inner

(KAI'S POINT OF VIEW)Once I stepped out of the room, I went to the bar and got myself a drink. I ogled at the goldish liquid in the glass, already having second thoughts as its smell punctured into my nose without mercy and caused an aversion in my stomach.Deciding to man up, I shut my eyes and drowned the liquid into my system and when I opened my eyes, my vision was twirling in circles and an unnatural feeling surged up my chest.Damn. I didn't think the damn liquor was that strong enough to get me worked up with just a glass! Why was I drinking anyway?!"Hey, pretty." My vision was foggy. I tilted my head, trying to make out the face peering back at me but I got nothing, instead, my body swayed uncontrollably that he had to catch me by the arm."I'm fine, thank you." I gently pushed his arm away but staggered again and strived to balance myself with the counter. What the hell? Was this how being drunk felt like? If I was crapulous, why was I thinking rationally? "Hey, do you w

(KAI'S POINT OF VIEW)I sat on the bed, knees hugged and back pressed on the wall while staring into space.The events of last night were still raw in my head. Everything kept flashing and every word kept echoing. I wish I could forget."Are you still sulky about last night?" Ralph came before my view as he sat on the bed and crossed his legs. "I said I'm sorry. I shouldn't have agreed to such party and I shouldn't have dragged you alone. I'd thought it would be good for you to experience what other humans are experiencing.""I'm not like other humans." I wasn't even human to begin with. I met Ralph's eyes and locked him under my gaze. "Are you hiding something from me, Ralph?" I watched his reaction give nothing away but before he could answer, I placed a finger over his lips. "Wait, don't answer that."Why was I even asking? I swore to mind my business and not get tangled in some shit that might bring attention or worst get me killed. What was the point of knowing a secret when I wa

(CAMERON'S POINT OF VIEW)"You are such a pretty little thing." Nauseated would be an understatement to what I felt as he meandered his finger on my clothed arm. I swiveled my face away but he clasped my mouth, turning my face to look into his lust-filled eyes."Don't look away from me, little thing. We are going to have a fabulous time together. I promise to make it worth it."For once I felt I'd caught up with my limit letting this outmoded pervert touch me. But I couldn't believe I was doing this, coerced to sleep with a man twice the age of my father by my father and soulmate.The thought made me scoff out loud and the smile on Mr. Smith's face fell over. He shrank his hold on my mouth, sifting his fingers into my cheek but it didn't hurt, not when I'd endured this same treatment from my parents and my soulmate, nothing new and nothing to flinch about."Shouldn't you be imploring and crying? That's what I was promised. If it doesn't come inherently, you might as well be synthetic

(CAMERON'S POINT OF VIEW)A day after the cessation of Mr. Smith, the cops turned up at my house.I schooled my expression as one of the officers analyzed me, searching for something that would give me away as the murderer of the rusty pervert. "What makes you think my son has a hand in the death of Mr. Smith? I assure you, he doesn't even know the man." Dad broke the silence that befall the living room."We never said your son has a hand in the murder of Mr. Smith. We caught footage of your son stepping into the room." The detective answered in a non-joking tone while continuing to keep his eyes on me, waiting for me to answer the unsaid question in the air.What was I doing in the room with Mr. Smith?"Mr. Smith is a business partner and I'd send Cameron there for business purposes. That's why he was seen stepping into the room." Dad chimed in again."Mr. Hernandez, I believe your son can speak for himself if you're not hiding anything." The officer pointed out.My mom gasped.

(CAMERON'S POINT OF VIEW) "Bend your body a bit." I did as the photographer instructed, moving my body and doing as he said and he flashed his camera on my face, taking shot after shot while I conserved the smile on my face. Being in the spotlight since I could walk, this was nothing but the usual. But when I looked over at the director sitting behind the photographer with his crew and Blaze, I knew he wasn't impressed and I was correct when a moment later, the man was rising from his seat and coming to stand beside the cameraman. "Can you be more human?" I gulped and the smile on my face plunged. I spruced up my posture and peered at the man as the question caught me off guard. I recouped the smile on my face. "What do you mean, Director?" He rasped. "I've worked with many people and I know when an artist is less human and you seem to be far greater than other actors." He took a step closer, staring deep into my eyes as if he knew something that others didn't. "You can fool o

(CAMERON'S POINT OF VIEW)It was rare that I found time to sit in front of my canvas in front of the doors leading to my balcony. The curtains and doors were wide open and the rays of sunlight shone on me.I brought the pencil to the board but instead of being subjugated with inklings as I usually did, my brain was blanker than a sheet but I managed a stroke.Painting and drawing were my safe space, my only narcotic and cure from the blitz of anger and hunger inside of me but right now, I needed a muse.I reeled my head, looking over to Rhys who was occupying my sofa and browsing through a magazine. Feeling my attention on him, he lifted his head and locked me with his goldish orbs. "Is there something you need, little human?"I let my eyes roam all over his body, capturing every piece. I'd seen him without clothes before but the image in my head was blurry, it wasn't clear enough to plant on my canvas. "Take off your shirt." I blurted.He crooked the perfect eyebrow, questioning."I
