Prologue
I fought with the sheets yet again that night. I just couldn't keep my eyes shut. Something was haunting me. Something powerful. Something that seemed to thrive on my discomfort. It was eating me alive. I could only toss and turn in agony, fighting to forget that night's occurrence. The picture was vivid in my mind. It had no plans of fading.
I had made a huge mistake that night.
I had done something unforgivable. Something vile. Something repulsive. Something impulsive.
There came that time again when I just couldn't help myself. He overcame me yet again. Yes, this wasn't the first time I had committed this indwelling sin.
No, I was a common faller on his behalf. Maybe I even enjoyed what I was doing. Why did I, though?
I was supposed to be a woman full of righteousness. A protector of the city. Some of the inhabitants would even see it necessary to call me a Goddess, mind their kindness and contributions.
But still, despite my good deeds put forth to this often unfortunate city, I still can't condone my unfaithfulness...my demons have risen.
I just couldn't help myself. Maybe I didn't even want to help myself...perhaps I loved...
...sleeping with the enemy.
