Mortal Sin Vs Venial Sin Novels & Stories

The bar was called Black Velvet & Lace. Nothing about it was soft, nor elegant. It was dark, loud in the quietest way, and unapologetically indecent. The kind of place your husband would condemn in a sermon—then visit on a business trip with someone who wasn’t his wife. The walls were black brick. The mirrors were stained with fingerprints. The booths looked like confessionals for sins you didn’t want forgiven. Eden had passed it a hundred times before. Always in passing. Always in judgment.

“Mom… I’m sorry. I didn’t mean for any of this to happen. But I… I think I’ve fallen in love with him.” There was a long silence on the other end. “I can’t support this the way it is,” she said finally, her voice cracking. “Not while you’re living in sin with him. Not while the whole world is calling you his whore. If you want my blessing… if you want me in your life… you marry him. Make it real. Or I can’t watch you destroy yourself like this.” The words hit me like a punch. Marriage. The one thing Kaelan had never mentioned.

Too willing to love a man who never promised her anything but power in exchange for obedience. And she’d fallen in love anyway. That was her first sin. The second? Stealing from him. Whispers of betrayal. A half-million in laundered funds. And a deal with the Cataldi cartel that ended in bullets. Dante pulled the trigger himself. He remembered her last words. “I never meant to betray you.” He hadn’t answered. Because it didn’t matter. Intentions were for children and priests. Not kings made of iron. Present – Moretti Estate Dante moved through the halls like a storm waiting for a target.

I blurted and the way Shaun turned to look at me, I was certain he was confused. "For what?” "This is so wrong. I have an undivorced husband” I added, but he still had a confused look on his face. "It's a sin for a woman to cheat on her husband,” I said and that caused Shaun to scoff. “I don't know how this works, but isn't it a sin for a husband to lay his hand on his wife. Not just a sin but a crime” "That's different” "You are trying to say that for a woman to be happy is a sin?” he asked and I broke into tears.

And yet, despite the guilt clawing at her chest, a dark, shameful part of her loved every second of it. Damien sat up beside her, his breathing just as ragged. His black shirt hung open, revealing the hard planes of his chest and the fresh scratch marks she had left across his shoulders and back during their intense encounter. His dark hair was messy, his lips swollen, and his eyes held a chaotic mix of lust, anger, regret, and something much deeper that neither of them wanted to acknowledge. For several long minutes, silence stretched between them, thick and heavy with everything they refused to say.

“Lust, Wrath and Envy.” Three sins that are much more known than the others. The first that every one of us had and thinks of the greatest taboo to be called and own such sin. The second is the endpoint of anger that could result in a devastating state and even murder. Lastly, the sin that our very being learns to adapt and cause such havoc. Now, unto that time. “Are you okay?”

Waylon said with a frown. Dante chuckled, “Baby, don’t believe that bullshit. If you want to put reincarnation into perspective, although the sins are not dead, it would be an inheritance through chance like, for instance; Wrath is the strongest, but none of his kids would inherit the sin of Wrath and maybe Grayson or Jasper’s child would or a rogue in the wild. One way you can identify a potential Sin is in the way they act. I am always lazy but sometimes there could be no sign. Our little bae might inherit Valentino’s sin of Envy, but he found us as a substitute for parents and is happy.” Waylon was so glad Dante was done talking. Shaking his head he said, “Honey talk to much.”

I was not yet ready to tell about the archangel who was aware of all my steps throughout history. "Do you think I'm strong enough?” "Not alone if the power of the book is that great.” "What if four sins were together? "I asked, and raised my fingers as I enumerated. "Ganance, pride, lust and gluttony. Together, would we be able to do it?”
