Some teenagers deliver pizza, but not me. I deliver mysterious envelopes for a demon, and I don’t even get tips.
I almost died in a car accident, and Azmos saved me… gave me a second chance. At first, it wasn’t so bad. But now, this gig is getting dangerous, and it’s not like I can quit. I’ve seen things I can’t unsee.
I just hope I can figure out how to navigate the darkness before I do something I can’t undo. It’s time I face my own demons.
