The Beginning Of All Sins Novels & Stories

I'd gone to his study to surprise him, only to find him bent over the design schematics for our rings. The original "Amor Aeternus" was crossed out. Replaced by that new line of Latin: Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. My sin, my greatest sin. Five years. The guilt had never left him. Her shadow still loomed over everything between us. "Isabella?" the priest prompted gently. I lifted my head and looked out at the crowd. My father, Don Rossi, his eyes filled with expectation. The Moretti council, sitting ramrod straight, waiting for the answer that would end a decades-long war between our two families.

She admitted. “This woman is pure evil.” Dante thought to himself. He always had a principle. People who could betray their spouse in their lowest times are not worthy of becoming spouses. It reminded him of his own mother, who, according to his father, abandoned him as a baby and left their father when they were at their lowest. “But you, you’re different. You’re handsome and virile.” The smile returned on her face as she reached out her hand to touch Dante’s face. “We make quite a good match, don’t we? Forget about Victoria, I can show you what true heaven is.” Amelia leaned in closer to Dante and their lips nearly touched.

— I’ll let you live, Volkov, — Caelith says — if you tell me how you found out she’s an umbra. Volkov lifts his chin, defiant. — You think you’re the only one who buys secrets from the enemy, Caelith? — All this time I kept wondering why you called her a ‘greater sin’… — he brushes his jaw with his thumb. — What could be more sinful than a Nephilim? Volkov pales beside me. The younger one falters, loosening his grip just enough for me to drag in a ragged breath. — The greater sin, — Caelith goes on, voice rising, — would be a double one, wouldn’t it? The child born of a woman who sold her blood and her body, and a man who vowed his life to God!

– And he will gain part of that innocent person’s wishes. - Both will be taken to their kingdoms, both the person who was sacrificed and those who sacrificed them. - Said. - Why would a blessed soul practice sin? – Asked Lucifer. - For the greatest and oldest of sins. - Said the voice. - Greed is pride, avarice is gluttony, and pride is beyond lying. - Said the voice. Greed will be used. – We will give a wealth equal to the greed of the world. - Said. – If you win.

I whispered into the darkness of the room, the words a silent vow I would renew every single morning for the rest of my life. ​I wasn't a good man. I was under no illusions about my soul. The things I had done in London, the blood I had spilled on that white quartz floor, the lives I had systematically ruined to build this sanctuary—they were sins that would follow me to the grave and beyond. I was a man of shadows, a creature of the very world I had just destroyed. But as I held the woman who had learned to bite back, the woman who had looked into the abyss and told it to blink, I knew with a chilling certainty that I would do it all again.

My vision blurred, but I saw it— A dark, irregular birthmark stretched along his arm. Unmistakable. A mark I could never forget. Sirens grew louder. His face was drained of color. His grip loosened. “I’m sorry,” he whispered, already pulling away. “I’m so sorry.” His hands slipped from mine. He ran. His footsteps vanished into the rain as darkness finally claimed me. The last thing I felt was the echo of his trembling touch.

It is often a sign of recognition. Irresistible Sin is written for readers who understand that morality is not always black and white. That people can hold strong values and still falter. That love can be sincere even when it is complicated. And that sometimes the hardest battles are not between good and evil, but between restraint and truth. This is also a story that respects emotional boundaries. While it explores desire, connection, and temptation, it does so with intention. The focus is not on excess, but on meaning. On what it feels like to want something deeply, to resist it earnestly, and to question who you become in the process.

I'll care for them as if they were my own pups…" she sobbed. Mae thought she could cry her way out again, that he would soften like before. Little did she know that her tears only made him sick. "They're my pups, and you'll never have the chance to look after them again!" he said coldly, looking at Mae as if he were looking at a corpse. "I must have been blind to fall for someone as vicious as you! I'll bring Soleil back. As for you… You'll atone for your sins!"

Matteo uncrossed his arms and began to pace slowly around the small clinical table. "That predominant sense of urgency, the instinct to kill, can be awakened. Sometimes, people awaken it themselves through rigorous training. In other cases, someone triggers it. In your case... Santos triggered it." He stopped pacing, turning back to Valerio. "When your predominant side is awakened for the first time, it is hard to get under control. And it rebounds on your body when it dies down. Your muscles tear, your bones ache, and your mind feels like it's been dragged through glass. It's the after-effect of pushing a human body past its natural limits. That is why you feel like you've been hit by a tru

"But I assure you we are only humans, and contrary to what the church would have you believe, we are fallible, and will therefore, always fail." "We are blessed by Truth," he continued. "But let us not forget that we are also children of Ayla, bearing within us her gifts, as Truth fashioned us from her. It is from these gifts that we give rise to emotions, and it is these emotions that make us sin." He paused, his finger tapping against the top of his table. "So how do we help ourselves? It is simple. All sins are vanity born from our inability to truly understand Ayla's gifts, leading us to misuse them. However," he walked around to lean on his table, "everyone has their vices.
