Sinners Consumed

My world is on fire, and I`m in love with the girl who struck the match. Blood on my hands and a body at my feet only confirm what I`ve always known - Penny Price was destined to be my ruin. The gentleman I pretended to be is long gone. My sins bleed through the fabric of my life, staining everything she touches. I tried to walk away. Failed. Tried to destroy her. Failed again. Now we`re both burning, slow dancing in the flames. I tell myself I`ll rise from the ashes once she`s gone - but I can`t let her go. And Penny… she`d have to run to the ends of the earth to escape me.
