You shouldn't want me, Chastity whispered, her voice trembling as she stepped back, her composure cracking like porcelain. We're everything we're not supposed to be.
Lust smiled, but there was no arrogance in it this time aching tenderness. And yet, here I am, drawn to you. He halted, sensing her uneasiness Tell me to leave, and I will.
Chastity looked away, tears shimmering in her eyes. I can't.
He took her hand, his touch hesitant but charged with longing. Then don't fight it. Let me stay for once, let us be human.
Go to hell She smirked slowly. Her tears welled in the corner of her eyes.
I already tried that and the devil said I misbehaved too much He chuckled under his breath, the warm air skidding against her bare neck.

A collection of seven short love stories about the seven deadly sins and their juxtaposing virtues. Pride, cloaked in elegance and sharp words, clashes with Humility's quiet strength.
Lust, magnetic and unrestrained, dances dangerously close to Chastity, whose steadfast resolve hides a yearning for something more.
Wrath and Patience are locked in a cycle of destruction and healing,
while Envy's bitter gaze longs for the effortless warmth of Kindness.
Each story unveils their struggles, alliances, and the fragile line between virtue and vice. As they fight for dominance, they may come to realise they are not just reflections of human nature-they are its heart and soul.
