Seven Deadly Sins

Chapter Twelve

Lust sat in the rarely used den staring off. He was so lost in thought that he didn't see his older brothers walk in. "What's on your mind, baby bro?" Greed asked sitting down on the couch beside him.

Lust scoffed as he looked at his brother. "Like you can't already read my thoughts." Greed shrugged. "Fuck you too then. I was just trying to be polite, but they are quite loud. What are you freaking out about? You should be on cloud nine. It's Sunday."

Lust sighed heavily. "She really is amazing, Lust. You're going to love every moment with her." Gluttony offered with a wistful smile. "You both can say that because you have so much to offer her. I can tell how much she loves and cares for you two. The way she looks at Wrath. The fact that her connection with Envy is so deep that Balam was able to show his true form is huge. Let's not get started on Sloth. Hearing her screams from earlier with him was enough to make my ass blush and everyone naturally loves Pride. I just...I don't know where I fit in."

Greed could sense his brother's dejected feelings. "I just want her to like me." Lust whispered. His head was in his hands and Gluttony felt just how afraid his baby brother was.

"She more than likes you, brother. She loves you and you're going to realize that once you've planned an amazing day with her." Gluttony patted his shoulder and gave him a bright smile.

"I was thinking about taking her hiking at Gordon State Park. I figured we could talk and get to know each other more and maybe check out the waterfalls. Then we could swing by that new restaurant in midtown, Freddy's, for lunch before heading to the fair where she can eat her weight in funnel cake."

Lust recalled in one of their many text conversations that she was a sucker for fair food, so he used his power on the local fair manager to ensure that he come into town a month earlier with visions of fucking his mistress for weeks.

"That sounds like an amazing date, brother. I know she'll love it. Our mate is a goofball at times, she cares about her fitness and is definitely a foodie at heart. You're giving her the best of all worlds." Gluttony cheered.

"I've learned a lot via text, but in person I just seem to clam up." Greed shook his head. "There's nothing to worry about. Today will be great." Lust felt a bit more confident about his plan and Greed and Gluttony could tell.

"Shoot her a text on what you need from her before you guys head out and then get some rest." Greed said before standing up. "Thanks brothers. I really appreciate it." They smiled at him before leaving him alone.

Lust made his way to his room which consisted of shades of black and gold. The best word to describe the aesthetic was sleek. He loved his room and he hoped Mikayla would too. He sent her a text after setting aside clothes for their dates.

He figured they would need to come back after hiking to freshen up, so he set aside two outfits. He finally laid in bed once again lost in his thoughts. Lust could turn off his power when interacting with people. He didn't have to give Mikayla an orgasm every time they touched, but he physically couldn't turn it off.

He needed to see her face basking in the light of ecstasy. They were so good when they were just texting. Lust had found that she was funny and playful, but most importantly sincere and he loved her for that. He loved her for every reason that made her who she was.

However, like Wrath he didn't really know what love was. He had never felt it. None of his brothers had, but his sin like Wrath made sure they may possibly never understand it completely.

He knew lust wasn't love, but they did share the same foundation. Passion was a good thing when it came to romantic feelings, but Lust perverted passion and focused it solely on sexual desires.
