Well...that was exactly what he thought he wanted, but when she said it so plainly it was almost as if she took the luster right out of it. He kind of hated her for that. How dare she! Then she tacked on that thing that Virtues were so good at...caring. He could emulate and play it but it wasn't the same as someone who could actually feel it. He was jealous of that because as a Sin he wanted everything he couldn't have. That was something he couldn't have. But he had this brilliant idea that if he could understand it enough, there was no stopping him from obtaining anything he wanted.

As a Sin he was pushing her to a point to see how far he could string her through. Most couldn't handle him for long, she had managed a good three or so weeks.

He was kind of angry and excited at the same time that she could have such feelings without him using himself in influence. But she was greedy for him all on her own and he clung to that.

He looked to the bed then back at her. It was like the necklace dangling in his rear view mirror. It didn't feel like it was supposed to. There was no joy out of it, just as the promise of getting her in bed didn't excite him like he'd thought.

"Say it again..." He propelled his finger in the air, "that whole bit about what you feel 'cause that's a new one on me." It made him a little uncomfortable. It wasn't like Charity who always worried about him, or Lust, or the women he did use and abuse that wanted him for his meat. Or his money. Or whatever he drove them to. This was all Zoe and he'd probably fuck it up in the end, but he wanted to try because it was something so new. He wasn't a demon, he wasn't entirely evil.
