People, devils, angels, and everything else under the sun was bonded by a simple red string tied around their finger all prettily with a bow that only disappeared after touching their soul mate.

Carter didn’t give a flying fuck about that shit. He sort of got with whoever he wanted, messed around with whoever, and the whole soulmate thing didn’t really interest him as much as it might others.

That was until he started to fall for an angel which was already fucked in the first place and what was even worse, you wouldn’t let him touch you. At. All.

Until his hands brushed against yours while he was trying to play his charm on you like usual and the string disappeared. His eyes sparkled like never before as he grinned at you.

“Well… well… well.” Carter said, taking a step closer to you as he admired his now bare finger. No red string or pretty little bow to be found.
