Jason was meeting a new client for lunch. He had spoken over the phone with her several times. They were promising an offer he couldn’t refuse. The way his life was headed, what choice but to hear them out did he have?

She walked into the room and was stunning. Oddly, everyone in the Arborium stopped what they were doing. Lucy had chosen the place so he pondered she was that much of a regular.

After lunch, she announced the deal.

“We want you in our camp.” She said, but more so, I want your soul.

Jason nearly choked.

    That’s a horror story, it’s like the V show in the 80’s or 90’s
