Lying is not a deadly sin, but it ought to be one.
“Tell me you love me, only me,” He demands. His wife curls into his arms, her head tucked underneath his chin, her nightgown silky-soft against his bare chest.
“I love you, Lance,” She whispers.
He strokes her hair, peers into her eyes. “Red…”
“I have never loved anyone else the way I love you,” She tells him.
“No,” He questions. It is difficult to believe her. He feels inadequate, ugly, and worthless. He is imperfect, and it shows in his emotions and his actions on a daily basis. He feels as though she ought to leave and marry someone who can better care for her needs, for his love is a twisted thing, and she is beautiful and deserves better.
“Mine,” She tells him, kissing him deeply. She pulls him closer, wanting him to reassure her, love her, and own her. He falters, and the rage in his eyes fades away, replaced by lust. Perhaps it is pride, knowing she can control him with a look, a touch. And perhaps it is greed that makes him push her down.
“Yours,” Lance agrees, willing to commit any sin to have her as his.
Red arches against him, and he moves, and work is all but forgotten as they make love, again and again.
