A Sinner’s Saint

Vin: Demons. They’re relentless little fuckers that chase you no matter where you go.

There’s only one escape I’ve ever found and it was at the end of a blunt.

Then there was her. Camilla Taylor. Cammi.

The moment I touched her, my mind went blank. The monsters were… just gone. But good things aren’t for me.

And Cammi? She’s the very essence of good. Which is why I can’t keep touching her. Because if I do, it’s only a matter of time before I drag her down with me. Into that darkness that consumes my soul.

Cammi: Every girl thinks they can tame the bad boy, right? They’re wrong. Bad boys can’t be tamed. And they really shouldn’t be. Because that’s part of their allure in the first place.

Vin De Bellis is the definition of a broken heart waiting to happen. But when he touches me, my entire body lights up. The darkness that’s usually behind his eyes vanishes and a lightness shines through.

It’s the return of that darkness that scares me. Like I said, some people can’t be saved. Especially when the nightmares are so ingrained the demons run through their veins, waiting for their chance to cause havoc.

And Vin’s demons might just be the very things that shatter my heart.
