“What do you mean by looking for me?” Seokjin raised his eyebrows in question, apparently unable to process what he had just heard. The news was nonsense. Why on Earth (or in Hell) Humility would be searching for him? That made no sense.

“I don’t actually know,” the other demon shrugged. His features were manly and sharp and even though Pride was so much older than him, Jaehwan was actually older than him in human age, so it was a peculiar sight when they were talking and Jaehwan acted like a scaredy-cat besides the Sin.

Seokjin didn’t care about the between him and other demons as he always emphasised that tiny little fact that he would at least stay young forever. By the way, he knew well that everyone envied his gorgeous face and well-built body. He was literally fine as Hell. He knew he looked astonishingly handsome, even some cheap female demons were chasing after him yet he ignored them every single time they tried to hit on him. Love wasn’t a definition for him, plus he didn’t want to waste his precious time on such pitiful things like romance. Only humans and weak-hearted demons did that but he wasn’t one of them.

“I’ve just passed by an angel who said that Humility was on edge lately because she couldn’t find someone whom she wanted to. Later, I’ve heard that she was looking for you but God knows why?” he pouted in a deadpan manner, making Seokjin more than angry with his flat response.

Pride took a step closer to the taller guy and grabbed the collar of his shirt. Jaehwan’s eyes widened in fear, not to mention his cheeks that were almost on fire. Even his ears turned red when the Sin’s voice rose higher.

“You better snoop on her because I won’t believe you until you tell me why she’s after me,” he gritted his teeth, shaking his head in disbelief. Did that lower-class demon really dare to assume that he was interested in such gossip? Did he think that he had time for this?

He was a busy man, he was a Sin after all and nothing could indicate his excellence better than the fact that he had been a Sin for more than a thousand years. That was a huge accomplishment; neither of the previous Prides was as successful as him. One didn’t do his job properly and started behaving like a good person, so he was fired. One was distracted by the issues of his own descendants, so he held the record for the shortest period as a Sin while another one fell in love with a human and that particular human was so pure and selfless that her touch killed him.

Oh yes, if he forgot to mention, there was only one thing that could make him weak or even destroy him. That was the touch of an entirely sel

Chapter 16: Darling,
It was a beautiful roller-coaster, I did enjoyed it really much. You are super nice and super talented so you really deserved the lovely comments under this short story. Jin was an amazing Sin. My heart aches due to his death but it was beautiful and left my out of breath. Poor Humility. And that bastard lower demon! His dirty secret... aish. But on the other hand, I happy. Thanks to him Jin didn't become Lucifer, didn't lose his feelings etc. Ah, I cannot find more words. Sorry for this lame comment. I love you so much ♡
Have a nice day xx

Chapter 15: Darling,
Finally, we had the chance to see them in action (against each other, how excited!). It was fun. I enjoyed the whole chapter just like the previous ones. JIin and his princess make a good couple and the ending! I cannot imagine Humility's death. Jin won't kill her once again, I'm so sure right now. He is just like he used to be. He needs love and she loves him. Lovely yet tragical!
Have a nice day xx
Ps. I cannot believe that the next chapter will be the last, too. :/

Chapter 14: Darling,
Wow, Lucifer himself. Actually, I imagined him as a funny guy as well so I was totally satisfied when you described him. The dialogues in this chapter were my favourites and this whole situation is so frustrating and intense. He had to make her sin :( Frankly, I have a bed feeling about is. What if Humility will make him a not utterly sinful soul instead? Will he die in the arms of his love? Damn.
Have a nice day xx

Chapter 13: Darling,
Well, I think your story is a perfect medicine for my hangover because this day I was so tired I became tipsy over a fruit flavoured cider. It was like strawberry.
Hmm, Jin's sudden decision took me by surprise. I didn't dare to think that he would like to kill Humility in one way or another. I mean come on! Please don't be so cruel and love her (haha.) I hope he won't find that other way (maybe a relic could kill her actually like that hairpin that would be able to kill Greed just because it's a meaningful object from his past). I really don't know what to think.
I'm so scared right now because I accidentally saw a few comments about the last chapter and I already know that your ending will be epic. Please don't kill them both :'(
Have a nice day xx

Wow, wow, wow. Even though I knew lots of thingd about your story, you managed to surprise me. So that's why Lust's hunter looked for Pride. It's all make sense now. Wonderful.
Jin's and Humility's reactions were amazing. I did enjoyed them. They were passionate and intense. Like an italian drama, really. And this ending! Just like a little boy when he couldn't find the right words. (Sorry for my English, I'm a bit drunk right now but I felt that I have to continue this story in the way back home in the train).
Have a nice day xx

Omg, the last part of the chapter was so cute that I'm already in love with the present. I hope Jin's reaction will be flawless or at least huge. Oh, and I'm so curious about why my little virtue waited so long with this meeting. I wish I shouldn't start to dress up right now. What a pity!
Have a nice day ♡

I'm kinda sad because of Jin's point of view when it comes to his previous life but I think it's normal. Otherwise, he doesn't act like a real demon. Speaking of which, that certain sentence hurt my pride. Poor little demons who fell in love in their stories. I hope Jin will taste this sweet feeling sooner or later and he will actually change his mind. They are not pathetic :')
Since I know the plot twist I cannot wait to read the next chapter. You are amazing ^^

Chapter 9: Darling,
First of all, thank you so much. I'm not so sure of that how much information you have but the writing part was my most successful part of all (so thank you so much, I believe that I couldn't make it without the Seoulmate page or this collab. These things helped me a lot.
However, this chapter. Well, it was like a summary but I liked it oh so much. I'm so proud of Jin. (can I say something like that?!) He is an excellent Sin and oh... I just realized that Tae is older than him. What a shame they never had the chance to meet. They would be a great duo. ^^ I cannot wait to see what's coming. I know you already uploaded the whole story but I made an oath not long ago and it's already past midnight so I go to sleep.

Chapter 8: Darling,
I'm so sorry for being late once again. I want you to know that I never abandoned your story just because Jin became a whole new person. It was his destiny. The curse of being one of the most wicked Sins. His story was cute than cruel. You did broke my heart with Myungeun's death. Really? Was it necessary? Poor souls. At least, Jin realized he did loved her. I hope they will have a new chance in the future (present) and they will live with it. ^^
