Novel & Cerita The City Of Sins

44. Sinful I don’t know when I slept but I woke up by 3:00am; I was exhausted and hungry, I felt weak to my bones like I was about to faint. I struggled to push myself out of bed and when I did, I saw a tray of covered dishes on the bedside table, and a note that read: Just rest A

The Seven Sins are the most powerful demons, after Lucifer, to ever exist. Feared by all and wielding unbelievable power, they can wreak havoc without even meaning to. Hence, they mostly remain in their strongholds and barely ever step out to grace the outside world with their presence. They are Pride, Lust, Greed, Wrath, Envy, Sloth and Gluttony.

“Let’s see, just how cold and empty does your hallow prison could be? Beatrix.” HALLOW, COLD AND EMPTY. Three words that describe the entire turn and worse of a deserted place anyone could see and even stand in presence right now. The place inside of his dark life. The prison that became after Winona bound her into that core. Where its standing is ruined and tainted with blood, jealousy, and envy from that one night of murder and merciless destruction. PRIDE, GREED, LUST, WRATH, GLUTTON, SLOTH, AND ENVY, AND THE VERY CORE OF THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS.

“Oh. My. God” “Shit!” he says at the same time, why? is it some kind of penance I have to pay? Why does the universe insist on taking it out on me? Why can't things be perfect? Life is cruel and it hates me. “Ahemm” I hear someone clearing his throat “Good afternoon Miss Swan, it's a delight to see you again, the world is a very small place. I am Vitto Parisi, your new business partner,” says the older man kindly.

"You didn't tell me you were the Thea Hart. Your family like one of the richest families in the whole world." "Don't start with me." I sighed. "Im just Thea. Don't start treating me differently just because of my last name." I hoped she'd understand and thankfully, when she nodded, I knew she understood. "I understand what it's like. But, you see Cain over there?" I nodded, waiting for her to continue speaking as Cain stared right at me. "His last name is Hayes."

But the truth was far more dangerous—and far more beautiful. The Devil’s City was a marvel of dark enchantment, a kingdom of eternal twilight kissed by the silver glow of a crescent moon. Its towering blackstone buildings glistened like polished obsidian under the soft, ethereal glow that bathed the city in a perpetual soft, dreamlike hue. The air was crisp, carrying with it the scent of night-blooming flowers that lined the streets, their petals a kaleidoscope of deep crimson, violet, and gold. Intricate lanterns hung from elegantly wrought iron posts, illuminating the cobbled streets with a warm, golden light that danced with an unnatural grace, casting moving shadows that seemed to flicke

's go!" Anais responded excitedly. The fate of the city was uncertain but Anais was right; her cousin Ethan was evil and there was no assurances that he would defend the people. There must be another way to save the city and Maya was going to find it. **** It didn't take long before the guards realized that the Princess was gone. Lord Nogard was furious. He knew that without Maya, his goal of becoming King would be impossible to achieve. He needed to find her immediately! "You are all idiots!! The slave trader is here and he wants to see her! Find her!! Now!!" The Lord yelled at the soldiers. "Yes, my Lord. I have all my men already looking for her," the nervous captain responded. **** Far N

His father was not at home but I knew Damien was inside. “What the fuck is going on?” I heard Damien's voice behind me and when I saw him, the already planned lines I had prepared to tell him disappeared from my head completely. I forgot why I was even there. He was sweaty and shirtless, and the whole thing reminded me of the session we had… the way he had held me down with those strong arms as he had pounded orgasm after orgasm out of me. I had been drunk the first time I had seen him but right now, with clear eyes, I could see what a beautiful specimen he was with his broad chest and sculptured torso. His trouser was hanging lowly on his hip and it was driving me crazy.

"We didn't just win a war, Audrey. We inherited a crime." From the corner, Caelum spoke, his voice sounding older than time. "The Sins are out now. And they have a name. They are calling themselves The Unwritten." Outside, the World-Oak let out a low, mournful groan. The emerald leaves began to turn the color of dried ink.

. His hand came up to cup my face—the same hand that had just pulled a trigger. I could smell gunpowder on his skin. "You were supposed to stay in your pretty little world where I was just a businessman who took you to fancy dinners." "Dante, I don't understand—" "Yes, you do." His thumb traced my lower lip. "You're a smart girl, Alessia. Your father didn't introduce us by accident. He knows what I am. What I do. He wanted an alliance between our families." The words sank in slowly. "You're..." "Mafia. Criminal. Killer. Take your pick." His eyes searched mine. "The question is, what are you going to do about it?" I should have screamed. Should have run. Should have been horrified. Instead, I
