Chapter 14
It's been a week since I returned to school and I still haven't seen Lust or Wrath which made me wonder if something had happened to them but Saviel and Satiel have both been too calm.
Even if they don't get along, it doesn't mean they will be this calm if they're both faced with danger.
So what's really going on, Lust might be avoiding me but Wrath? I thought we were friends.
Right.
We were friends until I went all boyfriend mode on his brother and best friend.
I really wish I hadn't returned to school because now I have to deal with a horny girlfriend, my mom had obviously told her to get me to have sex with her to prove that I'm actually straight but she haven't been able to make me get it up, even when I have seen her totally and completely naked. Yet, only a single thought of Samiel and I'm reeling with arousal.
This is my struggle as a guy genuinely trying to be straight.
My mom has confronted me, asking me why I hadn't gone all the way with Samira and I had to tell her that it's because I'm trying to get used to being with a girl again after my gay phase.
She said she understood and dropped it there, thankfully I had gotten hard when Samira had made her move, not because of her nakedness but no one needs to know that.
But something strange has started happening to me.
I've always had dreams about Lust but they have been dreams of him on his knees and his mouth wrapped perfectly around me or of those kisses we have shared not of him bleeding to death.
The nightmares started two days ago and have been constant since then.
They have also grown considerably darker and more terrifying which have been making me restless but I have decided to confront Glutton about it. I kind of have a feeling that Envy wouldn't tell me if I asked him.
So the shy and quiet Satiel will be the right person to ask, as long as I can get him alone.
I cornered him on his way out of class when for the first time Envy wasn't glued to him.
They're always together but they don't give friendly vibes nor couply vibes. Glutton always looked like he was forced to be anywhere near him.
He's always trembling whenever Envy is near him, not the good type but the type that screams 'I am absolutely terrified of this guy' and it made me wonder if there's anything going on with these brothers' dynamics and also made me curious about the remaining brothers.
I expected him to feel scared and was about to assure him when I noticed that he looked completely composed and unperturbed.
He's still shy but also calm like he was expecting this.
"Took you long enough and before you ask, I don't know anything ". He began walking away while I stood there gobsmacked and shocked.
I shook myself out of it and ran after him,"Satiel wait up…".
He didn't respond and by the time I got to him, Envy appeared in front of us, his green eyes narrowed down at Satiel's small frame, their intensity boring through him "What did you tell him?". His voice took on a dangerous undertone, warning and threat mixed into the sentence.
"I told him that I don't know anything". Glutton muttered inaudibly, head down and shoulders slumped, his petite malnutritioned body shaking.
Envy suddenly smiled, he placed his hand on Glutton's shoulder, squeezing hard and Satiel winced before his face reverted back to normal.
"Good boy". He remarked, still smiling widely as if in an extremely good mood.
"What was that?". I was genuinely lost and confused.
His eyes turned to slit as they slid to me,"It's nothing for you to worry about, Ashton honey".
I shook my head in disbelief, still taken off guard by what I just witnessed.
It had been brief and uneventful but the power dynamic displayed in that short moment is enough to get me shaken up.
Who exactly are these people?
I have been intimate with Lust in more ways than one but I still don't know anything about him or his self acclaimed brothers.
He has mentioned his Father being a terrible person but who exactly is he?
What type of world has he created for these brothers?
Looking at Envy now, I understood why he has always creeped me out.
He's merciless as well as ruthless. The type that will kill without breaking a sweat. A killer clown with a wide smile and loud laugh.
A deceiver through and through.
He tsked softly before leaning into me,"I think I see why Lust is obsessed with you and I'm beginning to like you too, so naive and innocent, you must taste good too. A little bird told me you're still very pure. Poor Lust, it's his loss that he doesn't get to be first, hahahaha". His laughter echoed through the hallway but strangely no one seemed to have heard anything.
It reminded me of that day too, the first day I had met this green clown.
He had been obnoxiously loud then but nobody noticed or even paid us any attention, as if we weren't just standing in the middle of the cafeteria, disrupting the peaceful atmosphere.
Now the situation is the same, everyone is minding their business, some of them are even looking in our direction but they don't seem to be seeing us or hearing the ruckus we were causing.
It must be a kind of special spell that he possesses. Like Lust's hypnotising spell.
I jacked away from him but too late because his finger nails which elongated all of a sudden already pierced into the pale skin of my pulse, my vision blurred and I blacked out.
I opened my eyes and was shocked by the sudden drop in temperature. Starise is a planet with a constant freezing temperature, there has never been a change in temperature which is why I became frightened by the scorching hotness that engulfed me from head to toe.
My first thought was I need some cool air and my second thought was I desperately need some ice water.
"Welcome to hell, Ashton. What do you think of the temperature? Nice right?".
A shadow sneered, their identity hidden in the darkness.
Goodness, are those flames dancing around?
That was my last thought before I lost my consciousness due to the intense heat.
