I once was loved, but now I sit here damned.  I sit here with these
words and memories to remind me of the sins I have committed.  I guess 
these are going to be my last words to this world, in my near-human 
form. 

I have given my seed, and taken the demons own.  For I have sinned, and
this is my penance. 

May the Lord forgive me.

The tape ended with a horrid hissing sound as if fire is charring a nest
of snakes.  Sarah clicked off the tape recorder after a loud howl broke 
through the sizzling sounds.  She turned to her new-founded boyfriend, 
her savior, a new cold running through her veins. 

“Where did you get these tapes?”, Sarah asked, motioning to the stack of
cassettes that lay next to the recorder. 

“Did you like them?” 

“I don't know.  It sounded as if it had come from like the fifties or
something.  You know, like War of the Worlds, or something like that.”  
Sarah snuggled up closer.  A shiver escaped from her, but it wasn't 
from the cold.  He wrapped his protective arms around Sarah from 
behind, unfastening the buttons of her blouse carefully. 

“Does this mean that you were scared?”, he said, slipping a hand into
her blouse, nuzzling lightly on her neck. 

“No,” Sarah said quickly, moving out of the reach of his mouth on her
neck.  “It was just different.  That's all.” 

“How so?” 

“I don't know.  It just was.  And it proved one theory that I was always
wondering.” 

“Really now.  And what might that be?” 

“That all men have the devil in them.” 

Sarah brushed his hand out of her shirt, laughing, running into the
bedroom with her boyfriend right behind her.  As she slowed down, he 
grabbed her in the middle and onto the bed they fell, laughing. 

“Is that right?”, tickling Sarah as he asked his question. 

“Uncle, uncle,” Sarah screamed out through her laughter. 

The laughing subsided and Sarah turned and faced him.  “There is another
thing I found out too.” 

“And what is that?” 

“That I love you, oh, so much.” 

Jason smiled.  “What would your husband think if he heard you say that?”


Sarah's manner changed.  “I don't care what he thinks.  He doesn't treat
me as well as you do.” 

“I will take that as a compliment then.”  Jason pulled Sarah closer to
him.  She lay on his chest, beginning to unbutton his shirt. 

“Will you take me away from him, please?” 

Jason's smile grew.  “Only if you are sure that is what you want.” 

Sarah looked up to Jason's face.  Nodding, she replies, “Yes it is.  All
I see is you.  All I want is you.” 

“As do I,” Jason replied, kissing Sarah's forehead.  She lay her head
back on his naked chest.  Whispering, Jason says, “I love you, too.” 

As Sarah continued to unbutton his shirt, moving to his pants, Jason's
mind was at ease.  He had found the next heir. 

Jason smiled wickedly, thinking to himself.  “Yes, darling, and soon
purgatory will be yours.  I spent my time in the maw of Hell, and the 
time has come to change heirs.”
