Tasha?

Flanked by Cassandra and Vespa is a woman dressed entirely in flat black. The catsuit covers her entire body including her eyes and mouth.

You hear the beating of her heart and wonder how she breathes or sees in it.

Vespa grins. “Linda, meet Tasha. She is a Bloodbearer Assassin. Is r she marvelous?”

You nod.

Cassandra chimes in. “She no longer has human feelings. She is faster, stronger, and heals incredibly quickly.” To illustrate Cassandra rakes Tasha’s belly. It cuts through fabric and flesh. You watch as her flesh heals and her outfit knits itself closed. “She is no longer capable of sex or orgasm. It has been replaced by a killgasm. When she kills her target she will cum and that climax can last for hours, days even. As you might imagine, Assassins never give up, never stop until their target is dead.”

“She’s still alive?”

“Yes, enough of her remains human so that she can wield any weapon, including a holy one.”

You look closely at her. You still sense a hint of resistance.

“Not to worry, Linda, after she makes her first kill she will be completely ours.”

Vespa laughs. “Assassin, your first kill will be Mallissa, Lilah’s second. You will make it appear as though Abbadon has done it.”

Tasha gives a submissive nod then slips into the shadows. If it wasn’t for your enhanced senses you might not have even noticed her there.

Cassandra grins. “It is so rewarding to help my former friends find their true paths. I have seen her future. Once she kills Mallissa, she will be enthusiastically obedient. Then we can begin to make a few more. Enough to close the gate and send Abaddon back to hell.”

“How long will it take her?”

“Not long. She will be most efficient.”
