My eyes were literally glowing, there was no mistaking it. It was not a reflection of light, or any of the other excuses I had used or others had assumed. They were glowing a light sapphire blue color. It was not a bright glow, but it was definitely a glow. Glowing eyes were not normal. Okay, at this point I had to admit it, I was no longer normal. What was I then? For that, I had no answer [[Word count: 495,000]] Copyright August 2016. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy, alter, or steal this story.

I'm a sinner with no regrets. I'm a man with no shame. I'm a lover with no soul. What am I? You're a loner with no friends. You're a beggar with no place to go. You're a face with no name. Who are you? It doesn't really matter what I am or who you are. Everyone has sin in common. But I pride myself on doing it better. Through the eyes of another, I am envied. If they only knew the wrath I have endured. Greed can be a motherfucker, but it is what makes us strive to be better. Lust can make you burn, but without it you would freeze to death. Some of us are a glutton for punishment and want to feel the pain that reminds us we're still alive rather than overcome by sloth. The lure of these seven deadly sins is like an addiction. And I intend to indulge in each of these unforgivable sins.

In a world where nothing comes for free, the only thing that can't be bought is a real, human connection, and the only thing of true worth is an honest word. But when forced to make a choice between doing the wrong thing for the right reason, and doing the right thing but forsaking those you love, can there ever be a right decision? In the city of Eos, the lines between black and white, right and wrong, love and hate, all blur together like the bright neon lights that bask the dark streets in their mesmerizing glow. And where black and white meet, a world in monochrome is born.
