Cardinal Sins

As a virus ravages the city, Paris and Rain fight for survival and a chance at love in a world that's tearing itself apart.

Paris is the most powerful man in the city, but his heart has been broken since his last love died in his arms. He's been hiding a painful secret - the world's toxic environment is killing everyone, including him. His search for a way to stop the spread reveals lost facilities, buried nightmares of horrific events, and an abandoned mer-creature who has found a way to survive in the tainted water.



Rain is a mer-creature who has spent years trapped in ice and contaminated water. Rescued by Paris, he finds himself in a giant pool, watching the man who saved him slowly deteriorate. As he tries to find his feet in this new world, he realizes that he is developing feelings for Paris.



Meanwhile, a virus is ravaging the city, attacking those with mutations. When the past that Paris thought he'd escaped arrives for revenge, Rain becomes his only hope for survival. Will they be able to overcome their differences and find love in a world that's falling apart? Or will the virus succeed where the last plague failed and kill them all? Paris and Rain must fight for their lives and for a chance at love in a world that seems to be tearing itself apart.
