Third Deadly Sin Novels & Stories

Liam was, without a doubt, a different level of fucked up. “‘Everyone comes naked from their mother’s womb.’ That phrase is straight out of the Bible, Hilary. When people—even you and me—came into this world, we were immaculate and uninhibited. But as mere human beings, we are also weak and curious. These things are etched in our nature. And the moment we enter this worldly realm, we give in to the false trappings and disassociate ourselves from our original essence. We sin. There are thousands and thousands of ways that we sin, but the most destructive and root of it all that impedes us from our spiritual progress are the seven deadly ones.”

Powerful and crazy, Reena thought desperately, and a pair of maniacal silver filtered across her vision, of course! “There might be a way.” Reena whispered. “Find a way to contact Caelan Thorne and tell him this. Greed is the sin that binds you with its lies. Tell him I am guilty of the sixth sin, and so is he.” Watching William’s retreating back, Reena could not help but feel like she was making a deal with the devil, a devil with silver eyes that burned bright.

“First of all, I can assure you that your God has nothing to with this. If all, He is completely powerless in this situation. And that thing, that very thing that killed your men, my friend, is called a Sin. One of The Seven Deadly Sins, to be more specific,” I thoroughly explained, trying my best to compose myself. “One of The Seven Deadly Sins has made its home inside her soul. And as to how did it end up in there, I think I might have a clue...” I then absently added as I momentarily lost myself in the memory, faintly reminiscing that fated day, when that foolish mother of hers decided to follow me to The Underworld -even though strongly advised against it- and seduce her way straight to

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.

they replied in unison, both turning to look at me at once. “Who?“ I inquired, although I suspected the answer. “The Lord of the sins,” they replied with a look of reverence and dread in their eyes. My heart trembled at their response, and I opened my mouth in awe. The Lord of the sins? I had expected them to call him “The Lord” or “Lord Draven”. I took that to heart, asking in a defensive tone and stance. “Why did you call him that?“ Their eyes darted as if they were terrified. “Because that's what he is. People say his very existence is a sin, and that was affirmed when he slaughtered hundreds of soldiers and let us live.“

THE KEEPER HAS PASSED THE FIRST TRIAL. A second sentence followed. ONLY THE HEART REMAINS. ⸻ Adrian frowned. “There are more trials?” Mira answered quietly. “There have always been three.” “The Mind.” “The Heart.” “And…” She hesitated. “The Sacrifice.” ⸻ Silence settled across the Sanctuary. No one liked the sound of the third trial. ⸻ Meanwhile… Inside the Cathedral… The silver-haired woman slowly approached Leonardo. He still hadn’t moved. His eyes remained fixed on the open doorway.

Guilt weighed me down, and I couldn't drag my legs to the estate to see them. I knew my parents were alive and well. I intended to keep it that way – three, six, ten years from now. I got to work immediately. Now, I crossed the room wearing a simple cotton gown. "Let's see" I mumbled, bending a bit to pick up the files. I skimmed through them quietly, my eyes drinking in the content. The Sins were seven, but only six were documented. I knew of Roderick Blackstone, Sin of Greed, Fabio Rabbia, Sin of Wrath.

He paused, then added with a sly smile, “You know the saying—happy wife, happy home. Who knows what a little influence from the wife could change?” “What do you want from me, Kelvin?” Noah demanded again, jaw clenched tight. “I want you to stay off the business. I’m the rightful heir. Find a way to step down. Make a mistake big enough…” Kelvin leaned in closer, his voice dropping to a venomous whisper, “and blame it on your incompetence. Stepping on what’s mine is dangerous, Noah. Trust me, I’ll do anything to take you out of that position.” The threat hung between them like poison. Noah sniffled, fighting the sob rising in his throat. “You monster…”

Darius held him close, his own face pale. The Broker spoke again. “Painful truth that shames the speaker. The audience feels the genuine remorse. One confession remains. Speak your third and greatest sin, Guardian.” This was the worst one. The confession I’d never allowed myself to think about consciously because acknowledging it would mean accepting how dark I’d become. My hands shook. My breath came in short gasps. “My third sin,” I whispered, then forced myself to speak louder. “My third sin is about Sarah.” Darius’s entire body tensed.

Their gazes locked two predators sizing each other up. Then Salcedo leaned forward, producing a small flash drive he set deliberately on the table. “Break up with Kathalina, Thirdie,” he said, voice low and heavy with malice. “If not… I’ll release the video where—” Thirdie’s eyes flicked to the flash drive. He already knew. He didn’t need to see it. “I’m sure you already know what this is,” Salcedo sneered, watching him. Thirdie’s eyes met his evenly, unwavering. The truth was, he wasn’t afraid for himself. He was afraid for Kathalina…. for her name, her reputation, her life. She couldn’t be dragged into the shadow of his past.
