INTERNAL SIN Internal Sin: 079
(KAI'S POINT OF VIEW)I had no idea what to expect as I rushed down the hospital hallway after learning that my father had been rushed to the emergency room. But certainly, I didn't expect to hear the words that fell out of the doctor's mouth as he spoke to my mom. I abruptly came to a halt a few feet away from them."I am sorry, Mrs. Celestia; there is nothing we can do now that your husband is in the final stages of cancer."Mom choked on her tears and immediately raised her hand to clap around her mouth to muffle the sound. "How much time does he have?" The doctor shook his head, unable to find the right words. "You can go see him now if you want." He placed a comforting hand on her shoulder before walking away while I made my presence known."Mom." Quickly, she turned to me and instantly, she was breaking down, releasing those sounds she had been holding back. I caught her before her knees gave out, held her tightly in my embrace, and stroked her hair while trying to hold back

(KAI'S POINT OF VIEW)When I opened my eyes, I was staring at the ceiling of my bedroom. How did I end up here? I thought as I felt a wild ache in my head.I slowly pushed myself up to a sitting position on the bed and rubbed my brow, trying to remember how I had ended up on my bed when the last thing I remembered was comforting my mother in the hospital. I have not even seen Dad yet."You are awake." My head jerked up as I watched Ralph enter the room with a steaming cup. When he was close enough, he extended it toward me. "Have this; it will help with the headache."I slowly took the cup from him and sipped the contents. On my tongue, it tasted sour but not unpleasant. "How did I get here? I recall being in the hospital." I regarded him with suspicion. "What are you doing here?""You passed out at the hospital earlier, and I was there to visit because I heard what happened to your father, so your mother told me to take you home."Oh. I realized. That made perfect sense. "So, we are

[KAI'S POINT OF VIEW]I still remember the man in the mirror. It was like I was staring at myself but at the same time, it wasn't me.I remembered the look in his eyes; they were filled with regret and so much pain that my heart clenched. Those eyes wanted to tell me something, to warn me, but he vanished the moment Ralph entered the bathroom.That was two days ago, and I still felt strange. I felt a tingling sensation at the tip of my finger as if something was aching to be let go. I even stood in front of the mirror a few times, hoping the man would reappear and tell me everything, but he never did, and I knew what I saw. He was there.I sounded crazy, I know but I couldn't help it.I sighed and ran a hand down my face. I was probably losing my mind.Suddenly, the loud ringing sound of my phone filled the room. I picked it up from beside me, where I was sitting on the bed, and answered the call."Mom,""Kai, a…are you home?" Suddenly, every nerve in my body was screaming in alarm

[RALPH’S POINT OF VIEW]I returned to protect him from the forces that wanted him for selfish reasons, but I was always a moment too late, and this time was no exception.The scene that greeted Rhys and me as we arrived on the roof was a disaster.Kai was scrambling away from Killian, who looked like he'd just woken up from the dead. Eryx looked frightened, as if a monster were in front of him, as his eyes flickered between his panting and confused soulmate and Kai, who looked like he'd committed the greatest crime. "Sh*t!" I exclaimed as I dashed to Kai's side. In an instant, the panic in his heart shot up, and he was shaking his head and moving away from me, even more so when I reached for him."Please do not touch me. "I am a monster. I am a monster!" He repeated it over and over while crawling backward away from me, his voice becoming increasingly louder until he was screaming and attempting to flee, but I quickly drew him back and held his face. "Look at me!" I demanded, feelin

[KAI'S POINT OF VIEW] I woke up with a desire pushing through my veins. I jerked up straight on the bed to find myself in my room. I crossed my legs and realized I was hard and aching. What the hell?I knew there was something called morning wood, but it did not make sense that I would be so damn horny when I didn't even know what time of day it was."Are you alright?" I turned to face the voice and watched as Ralph stepped out of my bathroom, my eyes widening. Why was he always here these days? But it was all good, right? He approached me on the bed and pressed his palm against my forehead. As a rush of sensation flooded my body, I instinctively clenched my legs even tighter. I tried not to moan at the touch. "You are sweating profusely and are extremely hot. Are you sick?" He looked into my eyes but flinched at what he saw, which I did not know and did not care about. I was horny and in desperate need of something."Can I give you a blow job?"He frowned. "Why are you so damn h

[KAI'S POINT OF VIEW]There were a lot of things going on in my life—a lot that I didn't comprehend, like the flashes of memories I didn't remember being a witness to.I could ask Ralph but there was a part of those recollections that told me I shouldn't trust him. Killian and Eryx wouldn't understand. Who could I ask?I knew I was forgetting something, no matter how hard I tried, but I did not know what it was. I would have assumed I was overthinking and imagining things, but I could not have seen the same person twice. I was not insane, and I knew what I saw.I knocked on my Mom's bedroom door when I got to the front of it. Dad was buried two days ago, and his death had been difficult for all of us."Mom!" I called but was met with stillness. I frowned. I knew she was in there. I took hold of the doorknob and twisted it. When I stuck my head in, I was instantaneously assimilated by gloam and then the faint sound of noiseless panting reached my ears. "Mom," I called again and I stro

[CAMERON'S POINT OF VIEW]No matter how much I felt and wanted to claw my skin and peel it off my body, I couldn't. And no matter how much I yanked my hair and tried to put out the voices, I couldn't.I had no idea where I was, but I was surrounded by trees and covered in blood, which I-I-I believe belonged to a child.I just killed a child.I walked deeper into the forest, hoping to fall off a cliff and die, but no matter how far I walked, there were no cliffs high enough. Tripping over my unsteady feet, I fell flat on my face and didn't bother moving. I cried into the dirt as I realized how disgusting I was.I was a wanted man with nowhere to go and was insane. I killed and no amount of blood I got on my hands was enough to satisfy my hunger and desire.That child. The look of innocence in his eyes and the look of fear and horror before the life in him was taken by me.I did not realize I was doing anything wrong until his blood stained my hands. It was as if something had cleared
INTERNAL SIN Internal Sin: 086
[RHYS’ POINT OF VIEW]He begged me to kill him and put an end to his suffering. It was tempting; I could do it and everything would be over, but...I exhaled a sigh as I stared at his peaceful face, which seemed to glow in the dark. He was beautiful and damaged, and I was powerless to save him without further harming him.I rose from the forest floor, picking up his delicate form, and turned to leave, but a black figure blending with the night stood in my way. "What makes you think I will give him up? He is mine. He’s been tinted, and no matter what you do, he will always come running back to me, and when the time comes, I will turn him into the world's most powerful weapon, and no one will stop him, not even my dear sons." I looked down at him as I felt him clench my shirt and noticed a pout on his lip. My lips curled into a smile. He looked adorable like this, and I wished he could stay that way for a long time. "Whatever it takes, I will save him." I returned my gaze to the figu
