The Lion Sin Of Pride Novels & Stories

Even without looking up, I could feel the boiling mix of rage and pity surging in his chest. He held his breath for a beat, then suddenly wheeled around. “Prince Liam.” Vetle’s voice was thin and blade-cold. “Beating my wife at the gates of the Holy Temple—is it me you defy, or the Pope himself?” Air vanished. The hall went so quiet only heartbeats remained. Liam froze. He had only been “disciplining” his sister, and somehow that had turned into the capital crime of “insulting the Pope.” He dropped to his knees with a thud, voice shaking. “I... I would never dare insult the Pope!”

Ethan say, more like sending them out as he tuck his hand to his pocket. Leone glance back at Charlotte, who held her glares. She didn't want to blurt how useless and incapable he was for making them loose so shamefully. As she thinks it's wasn't his fault, so as she thinks he was incompetent, and how much she was beginning to hate Ethan who sneered at her when she shot him one of her painful glare. She admitted, seeing Pearce was like seeing a celebrity crush, a god of all beaut, but he was too harsh and bossy, as he sit on the sofa and only watch his smart blabber lawyer to run the case.

Dyelon growled. “Oh, so it’s like that? We’re forgetting that we're mates. Ok cool, so it’s only fair that I even the playing field right? I mean little ole me against you, isn’t fair at all. Soko…..Come.” Was all Trixie said before we all hear that deafening roar again. “What the…” Was all I was able to get out before the biggest lion I have ever seen came crashing in. “ OH MY FUCKING GOD! BULLSHIT, MOTHA FUCKA, GOD DAMNIT! TRIXIE IS THAT A FUCKING LION DID YOU JUST CALL A FUCKING LION IN HERE. WHY THE FUCK DO YOU HAVE A FUCKING LION AS A PET WHO THE FUCK HAS A FUCKING LION AS A PET. IF THIS LION DON’T EAT ME. I’M TAKING AWAY YOUR FUCKING BLACK CARD TODAY. OH LORD THE LION GOT A WOLF IN H

Sin pulled me onto his lap, put his hand on my chin and forced me to look at him. "Here I have assumed the name Sin because it makes the most sense on your tongue. In this incarnation, I am a wolf, but I have been many things. I have been walking the world for much longer than you can imagine." How could I look away from him? Those golden eyes consume me and sink me into a light of hope. "Gods are strong because there are people to worship them. I am strong because everyone commits sins. I have existed since the first being was created."

Where once calm and regal eyes now had darkened into a wild, feral energy. The lion let loose a deafening roar; his muscles tensed as he turned on his own pride. Alph watched, horrified, as the lion attacked, powerful claws raking across the other lions and leaving chaos in his wake. It was as if the king had gone mad, some unstoppable force driving him to turn against his own. Alph had looked up at his father, fear etched on his young face. "Dad, what's happening? Why is he doing that?"

"I saw it in his eyes—fear, guilt, and an undeniable desire burning deep within. I heard his Lion's roar, and he was not rejecting his Lycgers. Instead, he longed for them. Not only did my Lycgers respond to his Lion's call, but so did the Lycgers of my brothers, despite the distance that separated us that night..." "There is something about the way he commands us.

"And the lion, he was born strong. As a physical performance, the lion is undoubtedly the most advantaged - it has a clever mind, agile movements, lightning speed, and sharp claws and teeth. Compared to humans, it has so many natural advantages. But why was it overcome? Shouldn't that ferocious beast not be defeated by the gladiator?" "Baby, do you want to be the lion, or the gladiator?" Antonio asked with a smile, gently stroking Henry's youthful face as the wind cooled it. He raised Henry's chin and said tenderly, "Come, let's take a look, whether you can see it or not."

“Father?” “To claim you have never been tempted by the flesh is to deny the fallen nature of humanity. To place yourself above the rest of us. Above temptation itself. That is pride. And pride dressed as holiness is the most dangerous sin of all.” Heat flooded my face. Shame mixed with something sharper. Defensiveness. “I didn’t mean it like that. I only meant—” “You meant exactly what you said.” His voice stayed calm. Firm. “You must confess it properly. Now.”

“Just look at her. She is trembling. I can’t believe he molested his sister, and you’re still backing him up!” Sebastian threw Luca’s limp body over his bodyguard and confronted him. “Look, hate Larisa all you want, but you can’t deny that she is your reputation. If she gets hurt, your reputation gets hurt too. Do whatever it takes to keep her safe, even if it means protecting her from your monstrous son.”
