“I’ll be sure to tell you all about it.”

“You’re all talking about me as if I’m not here right now,” I grumbled, crossing my arms over my chest. “And you can all keep dreaming because I’m not sucking any of you off. And I’m not having sex with any more of you either.”

“I guess you’re stuck here with us forever then, darling,” Greed said, pretending it was a shame, but I saw right through the act.

My eyebrows furrowed together as a thought popped into my mind. “If this is…another world, then how are you all here right now? How are you able to live here as humans?”

They all exchanged a look.

“What is it?” I asked. “What aren’t you telling me?”

“We’re not exactly human, honey,” Lust sighed.

“How can that be possible?”

“I know you’ve noticed our names are a little strange.”

“Yes. They’re definitely unique. I’ve never met anyone with any of your names before, but what has that got to do with anything?”

“That’s because we’re unique, sugar,” Gluttony smirked at me. “We’re one of a kind. You won’t find Sin like us anywhere.”

“Sin?” I frowned in question. “Why do you keep referring to yourself as Sin?”

“I’m sure you’ve heard of us. We’re the Seven Cardinal Sins,” Wrath growled, his eyes dark and angry as he drank me in.

“Come again?” I blinked, surprised.

“I’ll let you come as much as you want if you ask as nicely as that, but now’s not the time for it, love.” His lips twitched at the corners in a barely-there smile, but it disappeared after a single blink, leaving me questioning if it had really been there in the first place.

“As Wrath said, we’re the Seven Cardinal Sins, hence our names.” Pride stepped in. “Seven Cardinal Sins. Seven Deadly Sins. It’s the same thing.”

“Let me get this straight. You’re not human. You’re the Seven Cardinal Sins and you want me to have sex with you all to get out of here?” I blinked hard, struggling to process all of this.

“Yes,” Sloth stated as if it was the most normal thing in the world.

“What if I don’t want to have sex with you all?”

“You can choose to do that, but we don’t make the rules.” He shrugged but didn’t bother holding himself back from smirking in a way that told me they knew they would get their way. It bothered me that he wasn’t wrong. “This is how it’s always been and we’ve never questioned it.”

Of course, they haven’t questioned it. Why would they when they were personally delivered fair maidens to bend over and fuck as hard as they pleased?

“If you don’t make the rules, then who does?” I asked.

“The being your parents pray to,” Lust answered.

“God?” I didn’t intend it to be a question, but I didn’t know what to believe anymore.

I believed in a higher being, but not enough to commit to a single religion. Well, that was the old me because I was currently sitting around a table having lunch with the physical embodiments of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Honestly, at this point, I didn’t know what to think or do anymore.

“The one and only,” Lust grinned. “You’re here to work off your sins, honey. We’re just here to help you. Don’t hate the messengers.”

“Besides, I’ve already fucked you and you loved it,” Pride added.

“And you came on my hand relatively quick.” Sloth offered me a lazy smirk.

“Multiple orgasms?” Gluttony licked his lips in hunger as he stared at me, finally focusing on something other than food. “Doesn’t sound like a bad penance to me.”
