Seed of Sin

By D.M. Burns

Brealyn Mia Winters

Something instead of nothing, friends...

That's what he said. The blank walls within that bland box he placed us in are maddening. There is nothing about us that equals friends.

Ironically, he's always in sync with my thoughts. My secrets don't even feel as though they belong to me anymore. When I'm alone, I sense him. I feel him all around me. I can even scent him. My mental stability is hanging on by a tattered thread.

In theory, walking away from Brogan Creed would be the smart thing to do. The warning signs are there. I should be put off, but I'm so far from that resolve. My mind refuses that route, and my heart beats to the conclusion that my place in this world revolves around him.

Brogan believes that a curse hangs over his head, one that will ultimately damn me. But what he fails to understand is that without him, he's only contributing to the source of my pain.

Without effort, the Wallstreet God owns me. Body, heart, and soul. And nothing will ever change that.

Brogan Malic Creed

That's her future... DEATH.

Of course, my twisted brother's words are a haunt whenever I am near her. I'm forever at a distance. Not within or out of arm's length, a carefully safeguarded reserve. I silently steal the mysteries of her mind while lurking in the murky shadows.
My senses soar with distrust mixed with contempt for our circumstances. But becoming the boardroom boss was not an achievement reached by trusting my enemies. I gained wealth and glorified status by way of facts. This situation will be no different.

There's only one flaw to this overall scheme. I'm drawn to the deity with the knowledge that I'll never sate the desire to touch. I am irrevocably held captive by a delicate, untouchable, and forbidden butterfly.
