Seven Virtues Vs Seven Sins Novels & Stories

He could do it again and permanently this time. "You said you two were friends. So why the fuck would you want to absorb him?" I asked, not like his answer would do much to make me understand. Nothing could make me understand him killing Cyrus. "Don't you sometimes wish to be your friend?" his cheerful tone threw me off. He was psychotic to say the least. "To have that power… the seven deadly sins are considered gods in hell. Every human possesses at least three. I want the respect that comes with the title and the power they effortlessly feed on."

"You know what Rita? Before now, I've been feeling a little bit guilty about my feelings for Stanley because he is married to you. I've been concerned about how you'll feel when he breaks up with you but now I've come to realize that Stanley was right all along. You don't worth my worry and neither do you deserve any of my pity." "You're nothing but a cruel, bittered and heartless individual. Your fight is to continue to stay with Stanley not because you love him but because of the fortune you're getting out of him." "I confidently stand before you and tell you that I'm in love with Stanley. I'm deeply and madly in love with him and I'll do anything for his happiness even though it involves

There was nothing rational about that. “Tell me. Why do they think that I am this pure heart? My heart is far from it.” “Not pure in a literal sense. It just means that you’re not tainted by hate, jealousy, or lust. The seven deadly sins. I told you it’s a lot to explain.” Penny tilted her head to the side, watching him as he ran his hand through his thick, dark hair. “And you don’t want to explain it to me. Why?”

The woman I became causes me to cringe. I wore my jealousy, envy, and pain like a cloak. The shroud festered and grew with each joyful mother I glimpsed. I was hyper-focused on what I couldn’t have instead of celebrating what I had. I coveted other mothers, and that’s a sin. I’m not naïve enough to believe I am free of sin, but coveting others... That’s not the real me. I can’t believe how my green-eyed monster fed on my despair, and it grew with each passing day.

I need as much out of him as I can possibly get. “You see, you’re one of us,” he tells me. My eyes widen. “Perhaps not on the same tier of immortality as Fate, or me, for example. But you are part of the Seven Virtues.” Not many people know of the Seven Sins or the Seven Virtues. They keep to themselves, but their existence is the reason why mortals are the way they are. There names are something I’m not familiar with, which I am grateful for. The Sins, at least, are the most frightful of the few. The Virtues, I don’t mind so much.

"I can be glad she's being held accountable and still grieve who I thought she was. Those can both be true." "They can absolutely both be true," Dr. Voss said. "That's actually the most sophisticated emotional position available to you right now." "It doesn't feel sophisticated. It feels like losing something twice — once when she betrayed me and again now." "Yes," Dr. Voss said. "That's what it is." She let it settle. "And how are you with Ethan?" Mia was quiet for a moment.

Damien Voss. Even seated, he dominated the room. Tall, powerfully built, with broad shoulders that filled his impeccably tailored black suit. Midnight hair swept back from a sharp, aristocratic face. A faint scar cut through one dark eyebrow, and his steel-gray eyes held the cold calculation of a man who had ordered deaths before breakfast and never lost sleep over it. At thirty-four, he ruled the Voss Syndicate with an iron fist wrapped in velvet. Ruthless in business. Merciless to enemies. Legend said he never raised his voice — he didn’t need to.

“Things are so hard right now, and I—” “Shut up, Elena. Just shut your mouth,” Michael barked, cutting me off with absolute disgust. “You think you can just disappear, break my heart, and then call me whenever you feel like it? You’re nothing but a gold-digging slut. A whore who sold herself to the highest bidder.” The words hit me so bad, tearing right through the remaining pieces of my shattered dignity. “Michael, no, it wasn’t like that—” I choked out.

“ It’s not for men young lady… “ He said that made my mind puzzled. If it’s not for men, then why did I feel like that? Like my stomach was being cooked and boiled with too much heat. My throat even felt like it was being twisted inside. I asked him using my eyes and saw how he stretched his lips that causes his dimple to show off. I don’t care about how those six men will see me as a woman, but this man's charm was always been hipnotizing. In fact, the word handsome is not enough to define how gorgeous he is. “ That's exclusively for vampires only… “ He said that made my body shivered. For vampires? Does that mean------ “ Yes! You’re the only human there. “ He added that made my mind got ev

"I guess you already know that demons exist… I believe the president and founder of Vanguard International know very well about them." I looked at him and he seems to understand where I'm going with this. "Unfortunately, what we know is just the tip of the iceberg… you probably heard of the story of the Fall of Adam and Eve, when the Original Sin befell the human kind. Well, it appears that brought seven powerful demons, the Seven Cardinal Sins, into this world." I said as I inquired about it in the Challengers Association.
