deadly sins

Sora G. Silverwind
Summary: luxuria. gula. avaritia. acedia. ira. invidia. superbia.
Rating: PG-13.
Author's notes: I really wanted to be able to use the canonical forms of the characters here, but in order to make some of the sins fit to certain knights, I had to really stretch things, even when using the human forms of these characters. If you put on your rose-colored glasses, you can see me flailing frantically behind the prose going "OMG! NO WAI! DUNNO WHUT IM DOIN!"
Hoping to get out a counterpart fic with the heavenly virtues. Because everyone seems to forget about them, the poor goody-goodies.
Fun fact – the sins are listed in order from least serious to most serious. Well, according to Wikipedia, anyway.
Disclaimer: The seven deadly sins belong to Catholicism...right?
Special thanks to: Blackeri on deviantArt for her gorgeous Deadly Sins series, Nightwish's "Dark Passion Play" album, and Poe's "Haunted" album.

Regulus was not the first man in her life in the literal sense of the phrase, not by a long shot. He probably would not be the last, she suspected.
Yet Zoniha knew that Regulus—shadowy, aloof, colder than cold—awakened something special within her. Something powerful...something primal.
She often wondered if he knew it, often wondered if he felt it too. It was funny, she thought. The two of them could spar together for an hour, and Zoniha would feel nothing but the rush of battle. But a single accidental (or not-so-accidental?) touch on her arm flooded her with white-hot desire. The desire to conquer, the desire to be conquered. It would haunt her for nights on end.
Damn him and the secrets he kept, the secrets that he promised. Out of any man in her long life, Regulus was the one Zoniha had known the longest...and yet knew the least about.
But one day, she swore.
One day, she would possess him.
Completely and perfectly.
