Quick the exit to the maze this way!

“Roo-roo as much as I’d love to continue our little conversation, I’m afraid I’ll have to end the Q&A here and move onto our final piece of business. I’d hate to leave our guest all tied up waiting on us.”

Reaching into a drawer Eva retrieved a single crisp sheet of paper and glided it over to you.

Flipping it over, you knew instantly what was on the other side.

“For some reason I expected something with a bit more…heft?”

“If you want the full legalese, I’ll have Renee email you. PDFs exist for a reason Joseph.”

“You know I don’t even know what this job is about.”

“Really? I’m surprised your mother didn’t **** you to spend all night studying our company’s entire history after yesterday. I guess she had faith you’d nail the interview.”

Eva replied with a wink.

“So what did Brie tell you about us then?”

“She mentioned you guys made connections for people. But after our chat, I’m wondering just how much of that is true.”

“For a sanitized politician like your mother that synopsis is sufficient. However for the dregs that darken our door, we extend our services much further than just connections.”

Fuck.

“The waters we navigate are murky grey at best roo-roo.”

How about black water? Ever take your yacht out there?

“But you needn’t concern yourself with those facets of the business. If you elect to work with me, everything you do will be completely consensual.”

It was the briefest of tinges, but you could feel the slight white-washing of words.

Eva was sanitizing.

The question was now for who

You

Or

Herself?

Staring at the paper, you knew you were cornered. But a final Hail Mary never hurt.

“I’m guessing you won’t tell me much else till I sign?”

Eva simply gave you a knowing glare.

This was it.

You were face to face with the Succubus’s contract.
