Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Rushing after Lilith through the labyrinth that was my palace, I instantly regretted my action. My bones began to deteriorate at a faster rate. The Divinity of Sin, a by-product of the Abyssal Sins, was able to mend the greatest of injuries with its reality-warping powers, but I needed time.

Leaning onto a pillar near the Imperial Garden, I slowly began to fall as my vision spiraled into waves of chaos, disrupting my mind and soul.

"Don't you dare Lily?"

"I didn't say shit!"

"But you were, weren't you."

A silly laugh came, followed by giggles. " Ok fine. But what I had to say was funny!"

"Was it something along the lines of me not getting 'it' up?"

"Tsk… No." She said with uncertainty. "Blah. So what are you about to do? Neither Lilith nor I have information regarding the Abyssal Sins. If I had to guess, I'd say Mommy had everyone use the Myriad Rules of Sin."

… Everyone…

Thinking about what Lily had said, I began to frown. " Hmmm, Lily, you said the Teleth are beings that don't exist, right?"

Lily was silent for a moment, then began."I mean… they exist, just not within the Myriad Heavens or the Abyss. Ah, I know. Heavens End, the bridge between other Realms. That power comes directly from neither the Father nor the Abyss. It's a mystery, but if I had to guess, I'd say it comes from where the Teleth is created… A Void of sorts."

I touched my chin, wheezing as my lungs began to shut down. Blood bubbled from my lips, but my brain was on overdrive as I began to rethink everything.

"If we assume that the Father designed or remade the sins to fit the people of his myriad Heavens, do you think the Abyss did the same?"

"No," Came the voice of my Wife, who approached with a worried gleam."I'd leave it as is. It's safe to say my race is the strongest, probably through cycles of evolution or maybe were just born like that. But if your theory is right. Why are we using the Myriad Sins that are only slightly different in the Abyss?"

"Because you all are far too weak." was all I could say, as it was the only logical outcome.

Lilith nodded almost in confirmation. "If you are right… then how powerful do you think the Seven Sins of Origin or what you call the Abyssal Sins are."

"If we give them faces… I'll say there are like Tenebrae or Hell."

"So the Path of Abyssal Night is using all Seven of them to create the Divinity of Sin. That's what lets you warp reality, but what if you focus on one?"

"Just one?" I teased. That didn't sound like me at all.

"Just one, Sene." Said Lilith strongly. "You try two, and you're dead. You're working with Forces that exist in the same realm as the Teleth. You fuck up just a single time, and you're done."

"Abyss-Chan created a habitat that only the strongest of the strongest could survive. A vastness where equality is a fleeting dream. But she used the Myriad Sins…." Picking my eyes towards Lilith, whose lips were curled down, I began to frown.

"That just leaves which sin you want: pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth," Lily announced, pulling me away from Lilith's amethyst gaze.

"Wrath, of course… I'm a warrior. I know yall saw what happened to Zarla. The bitch is in the nines, being run through by devils and demons alike. Motherfuckers down there are probably pooing in her mouth… Damn… War is Hell, Lol."

"Are we saying abbreviation now when we talk?"

"Lmao, you DTF?"

"You bet she is!"

"Wait, what does that mean?" She asked, looking me in the eye with such an innocent look that I couldn't help but beam.

She really is the Dumb-Dumb Wife I need!

"You Dtf?"

"Sene, what does that mean!" She placed her hands over her slender waist, parted her legs, and glared.

"Come into your hubby's arms, and he'll tell you."

Lilith's cheeks plumped into large balls, and she slowly shuffled towards me like a penguin walking. She stopped, so close I could feel her body heat alongside the three heartbeats.

"Tell me," she whispered.

"Nope. Come on. Closer. Can't you see your hubby is injured? He's sitting while you're standing." I opened my arms, offering a hug, and a bit of a foxy smile appeared over her radiance.

"Sene… you're trying to trick me."

'Me!" I pointed to myself in an over-exaggerated way and laughed. "Gods no. But when has my Wife ever refused a hug, followed by kisses: Have you found another Lover? My children, perhaps?"

Lilith's smile deepened, and without a second thought, she slowly fell to her knees and into my arm, wrapping her arms around my bloodstained back.

"You're wet," Teased Lilith, "I thought that was only for women."

Cracking up in laughter, I ensured my Wife would not be able to escape as my right leg curled over the back of her left leg, locking them in place.

A pleasurable shutter traveled up Lilith's spine into me. " What are you doing, Sene?"

"Me? Nothing…" I mused, squeezing her as she felt my leg, Lilith's amethyst eyes spiraled with wonder and… anticipation.

She leaned in closer, tracing her tender lips over me, " But… I want you to do something?"

"And what is it you want me to do?"

Breath turning rasp, Lilith's entire body grew hotter.

"Peel away my clothing," She said. "Slowly."

Sliding my right arm up to her back and up to her shoulder blade, I slowly began to peel the layers of clothing away till only a dazzling demoness, with a blush and a hint of shyness, sat in my lap.

"What else?" I said when I suddenly felt a kick from my Wife's tummy.

"Your son said fuck you, dad," Translated Lily with a laugh. "And yes, I speak, baby."

Watching my Wife burst into laughter as my face grew dark, I glared at the baby bump on my Wife's bare skin and narrowed my eyes.

"Kid… Just wait till you are born. I, your Father, will be sure to toss you from a mountain to live in the wild. Keep pushing my buttons."
