he paused and gazed at me. "As for you, your character and personality are nothing to write home about. To make matters worse, you have a lot of terrible vices. I doubt if you have any virtue cos I cannot even think of any. You are lazy, wicked, cruel, arrogant, and ruthless. Maybe there is a virtue that you have that I don't know, so, I will allow you to mention it," he said as he stared steadily at me. I gazed at him and I didn't know what to say. I felt like a fool.

Yet these four men were slouching their shoulders in and their eyes held unabidded bloodlust and one of them even had half his shirt unbuttoned. Alexander curled up his lips into a sneer as he looked at the cocky men, he was definitely sure they had abilities especially attack ones, in the last three months abilities started showing up and the tide turned and humans didn’t have to fear zombies as much, but humans have no humanity, as long as someone is strong than others then they will abuse their power over those weaker than them. It wasn’t uncommon to find ability user using their abilities to get advantage over normal people, sometimes it’s little things like taking their rations or getti

“Although I’m old and my movements are no longer agile, I still have my conscience. I know what it means to repay kindness with kindness! “Today, I’ll protect Mr. Mayo’s life! “I’ll risk my life to fight whoever dares to hurt Mr. Mayo! Even if I have to die, I’ll drag a few of you with me! You’re a group of ignorant bastards! Fuck you!” Her words were really vulgar. But her sincerity undoubtedly reached Thomas’ heart. That was what people meant by “virtue was its own reward.” However, one should not expect rewards when doing good deeds. When a person always befriended others, he would be safe even when he encountered danger, and people would always step up to help him!

Multiple incarcerations. Jane felt relaxed in the massive mobster's presence, no matter what was in his past. He was loyal to her husband and therefore loyal to her. He'd stood up for her on more than one occasion, not to mention saving her life moments earlier. Besides, it wasn't as if Vlad was an angel. She knew what the mountain of skulls at the base of the domed palace meant. She refused to blind herself with ignorance. She may love the man, but he was still a killer.

But now there was steel under it, bare enough that even Whitmore could no longer pretend this was merely procedural. “You want to understand my motive?” Adrian asked. “Fine. Jason Voss does not break rules impulsively. He breaks them when the cost-benefit balance pleases him. He knows when to keep his hands clean. He knows how to appear severe enough to command respect and controlled enough to inspire trust. He has spent his entire life mastering the art of appearing more honorable than the men around him.” Sloane tilted her head slightly. “And Miss Hale?” There. That name in that room.

It hadn’t felt like work. It had felt like partnership. Or maybe that was just what love looks like when you’re giving everything and calling it loyalty. The image shifted, sharp and unwelcome, to my father. Mr. Vance. A titan. A man who believed control was the highest form of virtue. He used to adjust his spectacles and say, “Zara, the truth is never in the bold print. It’s in the margins. People lie but the numbers they leave behind are honest.” He had taught me to look for the ghost in the machine.

F-k, Vixen had him fantasising about his best friends in bed, now. Not that Vice and Victor were not fuel for some seriously good fantasies. There was a reason they had been so successful in the industry – and that reason had a lot to do with aesthetics. Victor was easily as tall as Shadow, and as built, whereas Raven shared more the same physique as Vice, to the point that he had not been above raiding Vice’s wardrobe when he had needed a suit for court or something that looked high roller for a surveillance.

Cameron might exude an air of wealth, but her intentions mirrored those of Vivien. However, Jared wasn't like Carter. Carter was blinded by his indulgence in pleasure, while Jared was not.

While she wasn't fearful of Jared at present, the realization struck her that she had erred by damaging something so dear to him.
