Perspiration gathers in the small of her back as I watch her hips sway to the music. She’s perfect. A delicious specimen, ripe in all the right places. She gyrates on the crowded dance floor, her drink sloshing precariously over the rim, adding to the stickiness of the night air on her skin.

It’s hot, but thanks to the copious amounts of alcohol I watched her consume, she doesn’t seem to notice. There’s a lot she doesn’t notice tonight. Most importantly my presence.

It will be her fatal mistake.

Who knows what choices she’d make tonight.

Any one of which could lead to her demise.

Lucky for her, I’m here to intervene. To make sure her life will carry on.

Thanks to me she’ll outlive her fate. She’ll continue on.

This is a gift I offer. To her, to humanity.

She will accomplish more in death than she ever could’ve in life.

I bide my time, waiting in the shadows. It won’t be long now.

She’ll beg for me to take her.

They always do in the end.

It’s a wonder it took me so long to see it. My true calling.

I can’t wait to see the look on his face when I present this gift .

He asked me to do it. Even if he doesn’t know it yet.

Her blood will be on both our hands. But it will be worth it in the end.
