Chapter 6
When she awoke the following day, Shana found she had slept through to noon. Her hand went to her vagina and she realized it hadn't been a dream last night. David had been there, and he had fucked her again, though she was not quite able to remember the other atrocities he had committed.
A thought suddenly came to her. It was the middle of October. That meant she was at her most vulnerable time of the month. It was too late to flush his seed out of her. She stood a better than fifty-fifty chance of being pregnant.
Oddly enough, though Shana didn't object to committing all those other sins, two sins she would never commit. The first was to have an abortion, and the second was to bear her child out of wedlock. Her child had to have its father's name.
Just as oddly, Shana was unaware of David's true feelings for her. She was certain all he wanted was the use of her body. As a result, she refused to let him know she was beginning to feel something for him as a person. Oh, she intended finagling him into marriage, but not out of love. She would find another way.
So, as far as David was concerned, two of her seven deadly sins had been expiated. She had been fucked until the pride had been knocked out of her, and his cock had served to "punish" her for her so-called hypocrisy. Yet lust was not listed as one of the seven deadly sins. Now wasn't that interesting! What it meant to Shana was that some far-seeing, all-wise individual realized that sex was obviously an inherent part of all animals, and to maintain that one animal was evil for giving vent to these inner sensations while the other animal was not evil simply because it was a basic instinct, was all wrong. Even though certain blind priests and higher-up holy men preached against carnal sin, it wasn't one of the sins, and thus didn't qualify to send her to the lower regions when the time came. Not that it mattered at this point. Since she had committed all those other sins, Shana was certain she was doomed.
Then, there was always the vague, but unlikely possibility, that what David was doing would indeed wipe the sins away from her, or at least counterbalance them since what David was doing was against her will. Yes, yes, that was it! If sex was a sin, the eighth sin, then as long as she refused to willingly go along with what he wanted, she was being sinned against. She had, according to David, committed all seven deadly sins. If he slept with her seven times against her will, she would have been sinned against seven times. Translated, that meant her sins would be counter-balanced by those sins committed against her.
This, if nothing else, might entitle her to a chance at heaven, after all, especially since she had no intention of committing the other seven sins again. Well, maybe she would retain her envy. She was only human. But then it was possible for each time she expressed envy, David, or perhaps some other man, would commit the heinous carnal sin against her body again to keep balancing everything. What she had to do was somehow or other prevent herself from submitting willingly.
But at the same time she had to set her snare for David, so that when the seventh sin had been paid for, she would wipe out all the other sins by making him marry her and give a name to the child she was certain she now carried in her belly.
