To do a thing religiously is to do something that pertains to or conforms to a religion; or something that is done consistently or with continuity. So when you find something out of the ordinary that makes you sinfully happy do you stand strong in your religion or what you practice religiously? That's the dilemma that plagues Eshan 'Ifrit' Mulk when it comes to his life choices, especially Shiloh. From a night of wild celebratory fun to a life long commitment. When things change so quickly and drastically, will they be altered enough to uproot him from his faith and lifelong devotion to the Islamic Religion or ground him even further in what he believes is right religiously?

Always passed over and only seen as a pretty face, Shiloh Oakley does whatever she can do to survive in the lonely traitorous streets of Philly. Even if that means setting aside her personal values, worth, and morals for the night. But that rash decision for a quick dollar and a shot at a better life turns her world upside down drastically. In no way shape or form is she ready for this outcome.

Thrown together due to life circumstances will Shiloh and Eshan learn to coexist or will they allow their difference of beliefs and behaviors to destroy what could have been? Do they have the determination to keep fighting for peace through all the obstacles that they face religiously?

He doesn't know how much he's breaking my heart right now. "Trinity, I don't know how to show you how much sorry I am." He states, rubbing his face with his hand in frustration. "You can't, your 'sorry' doesn't changed what happened." I point to my face, where the bandage is. "This could have been prevented but you didn't even move a muscle to come and save me." "Trinity, if I did that it could have ruined my plans." He says, lowly. "It doesn't matter. If you truly love me like you say you do, you wouldn't have hesitated to come save me. I was so scared Aaron, I thought I was going to die." I respond, tears spilling before I can stop them. "I do love you Trin, I love you so fucking much." He states, clutching his shirt where his heart is. "Not like the way I love you Aaron. If you were in the position I was in, I wouldn't have fucking hesitated to come save you. I would die for you and you clearly wouldn't do the same." - Trinity's planner didn't originally have "falling in love with Aaron Florence" on it, but after a heated night and multiple dates, it became a daily thing.

She didn't care that she was pressed against his wet self and her robe was getting wet in the process. All that mattered was the way his lips felt against her. She made a sound at the back of her throat as he snaked his arms against her waist and pulled her even more closer than it was possible. She wanted to cry, it was as if she was thirsty and he was the water and she was a man dying of hunger and he was the food. Thats how much she felt at home as his lips started moving against hers. He opened his mouth and pressed his tongue inside her and she whimpered as their tongues battled against each other, rolling and teasing, nipping at each other.
