Saint Johannes Riddle

There are sins that do not lead to death. If you see someone commit a sin that does not lead to death, pray for them. Then life will be given to the one who committed that sin.

They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore, nor shall the sun beat down on them, nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and He will guide them to springs of living water, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.

The blood of Apostle John contains the secret to quenching a vampire’s thirst.

“I don’t care if you’re a goddamn serial killer.”

The pale blue eyes, unusually light in color, and pupils dilated in the darkness, make the back of his neck prickle.

“I’m interested in you.”

Could it be that Ian’s blood is John’s blood?

“What the hell are you doing?”

“That’s why I said stop before you fall in love.”

“I don’t fall in love with prey.”

It’s not a vow. It’s just the truth.

But watching Ian smile, Jay feels like he’s sinking deeper and deeper into a pit.

Through Ian’s blue eyes, Jay can clearly see the expression he’s making. His own expression terrifies him. That is—seeing the look of concern for someone else on his own face fills him with fear he can’t bear.

Because it only means one thing. Ian was right.

“Don’t make that face.”

I think I like him.

“It’s not that bad of an injury. It just looks dramatic.”

Goddamn it.

“Jay.”

Goddamn it, goddamn it, goddamn it.

He probably likes Ian.

…No, he definitely does.
