INTERNAL SIN Internal Sin: 041
[CAMERON'S POINT OF VIEW]A groan left my throat at the awful pain in my head. Wait! Pain?!Shouldn't I be dead? Why was I feeling instead?Sluggishly, I opened my eyes, being overcome with the brightest of the room and once my vision cleared, I found myself staring at an unfamiliar ceiling and the beeping sounds coming from beside me made me realize I was in the hospital.Hospital, alive? How-“Good, you are awake.”I turned towards the voice, finding my mom occupying a hand chair. She stood up and advanced towards me on the bed. “Are you surprised to see that you’re alive?” she tsked. “Don't worry, I'm surprised too. The whole world is since your audacious act was caught on camera and now everyone thinks your dad and I are credible for your act of suicide and guess what, Mr. Charlie revealed this is not the first or second time you have tried to kill yourself, making us look bad in the public eye.” she sported a grin but there was something dark about it. It made me quake. She cont

(CAMERON'S POINT OF VIEW)In this world, there has only been one person who has truly made me feel like I was a human with emotions—Charlie. He was the father I wished I had and made me feel less alone. Then Rhys appeared. He read me like I was an open book; he knew me like he knew the back of his hand. With him, all of my feelings were genuine; I did not have to pretend. And now there was Kai. Hours had passed since he entered my hospital room, and it appeared that he had no intention of leaving. We played game after game, and whenever we needed something in our stomachs, he always rushed out to get some. I realized in an instant that he was my first friend. With him, my smiles were outsized. The fact that I was no longer alone made me exuberant. I wished the moment had continued longer.My broad smile shrank, and my fingers immediately stopped tapping the phone's screen. When the door was pushed open and Blake was rushing in like a hurricane, I put the game on hold. He appeared
INTERNAL SIN Internal Sin: 043
(RHYS'S POINT OF VIEW) As demons, we didn't follow the rules of nature and did whatever we liked, but still, there were coincidences for some actions that just couldn't be avoided, like interfering with the fate of a human—keeping them alive when their time on earth had come to an end.I received a thunderclap as punishment for meddling with Cameron's fate. A normal demon would have shattered like a bulb. For a superior being like myself, the first one was only a warning, and the second would be the equivalent of being executed.I had been alive for countless years; death had become a friend. I had witnessed people lose their lives to illness, accidents, old age, diseases, or suicide, and whenever that happened, I could only laugh at the patheticness of how little they seemed to value what they had.Watching another human take their life should have been commonplace, and I should have laughed about it. However, seeing this human jump to his death felt like the end of the world, and I

(RHYS'S POINT OF VIEW)Shit! What have I done?"It does not hurt, and I am not sure why." He said it in a daze, but his eyes screamed dread and mayhem. I dashed over to his side. "Come on, let's get you out of here." I attempted to lift him, but he pushed my hands away, cringing away from me as if my touch had burned him, which hurt."Don't touch me." He hugged his body but paused as if a light bulb had gone off in his head. He approached, took my shirt, and drew me in. "Perhaps pain is insufficient. Fuck me, Rhys. Take my soul, if you will. I don't want it." He leaned in for a kiss, but I moved and grabbed his hands instead. He laughed, and his eyes showcased depression. "Even you do not want me. I'm worthless."I wished he cried, which would make him more human, but his eyes had no tears, which twisted my heart. It hurt.I entered the bathtub behind him without giving it a second thought and held him close to my chest, despite his attempts to break free.Perhaps saving this human w
INTERNAL SIN Internal Sin: 045
[CAMERON’S POINT OF VIEW]I opened my eyes to find myself staring at an unfamiliar ceiling. I blinked the fog from my vision and bolted to a sitting position on a bed that clearly was not mine. The room was completely unfamiliar; it was made entirely of wood and had an ancient design.Where was I? Where was this place? Unanswered questions lingered in my mind as I tried to piece together what happened before everything went black, but my mind was blank, instead inviting an excruciating headache that made me groan. With confusion, I tried to get out of bed as my feet touched the soft rug on the floor, but then the door opened and the last people I expected to see again on this planet walked in, the only people who made me believe that maybe there was such a thing as a soulmate and love was all sunshine and rainbows, and I was just unlucky. "Grandma! Grandpa!" I yelled out in a sense of elation that I had not experienced in a while and I suddenly felt alive. I leaped from the bed and

(CAMERON'S POINT OF VIEW)We were almost at the door when I changed my mind and brought him around to face me. He looked at me puzzledly and parted his lips to speak, but I cut him off as I grabbed his face with both hands and kissed him square on the lips.He immediately grabbed my hands on his face and broke the kiss. He raised an inquisitive brow.I fixed my gaze on him intently. "I do not want dinner; I want you."His eyes cleared of confusion, and his arm snaked around my waist, drawing me to his body. I could feel his breath against my ear as he moved his face closer to mine, causing an ache to swell inside of me. "Can you handle it, human?" He whispered against my ear before biting into my earlobe, causing me to grasp both his shoulders and squeeze. Rhys tightened his grip on me.I wanted this so bad, but at the same time, I didn't know what I was getting into. He was a demon, and I was a mere human, but I didn't care; I wanted to experience something new with him. "I can."H
INTERNAL SIN Internal Sin: 047
(CAMERON'S POINT OF VIEW)When I gained consciousness, my whole body was screaming and begging for help.With difficulty, I pushed myself to a sitting position and cried out pain at the anguish on my backside."I thought you could take it." Rhys mocking voice echoed in my head. I scoffed. I did take it, even though I passed out from intensity and wild sensations. So, this was how having sex with a demon felt?I looked at the side beside the bed; Rhys was gone. I looked down at myself; I was wearing Rhys'shirt. I smiled and inhaled it. It was perfect, and suddenly, it felt like all my problems were gone.With a groan, I pushed myself off the bed, letting out another groan once my feet touched the floor. Then, my gaze landed on my phone, sitting on the table. I dragged my feet over and picked it up, and once I turned it on, it was filled with notifications, hundreds of them from my mom, and they were dead threats.She didn't know where I was, and that was enough. Without a second thou
INTERNAL SIN Internal Sin: 048
(CAMERON’S POINT OF VIEW)Nature was an intriguing phenomenon. There was a lot to anticipate, and even more to draw.The mountains, streams, small lakes, trees, or, in this case, the sight of Rhys lying in the middle of the field, staring up at the sky, were more captivating, and in no time, his face had once again filled my canvas.The demon was perfect, and it was only fitting that he was not human because no human could match his beauty, and he belonged to me alone. Mine to look at,mine to touch, and do whatever I please.It had been a week since Rhys had taken me to stay with my grandparents, and it had been the most peaceful week of my life; it was almost unreal, but I loved every second of it because living in complete obscurity was the ideal existence. I wouldn't mind living like this for the rest of my life.My pencil abruptly stopped moving on the canvas as a thought entered my mind. Wouldn't It be wishful thinking if I were to think of forever with Rhys? We didn't belong i
