A Very Killer Christmas

A killer reaches the end of a bloody job on Christmas Eve and needs somewhere dark to disappear. The only unlit house nearby belongs to a reclusive gamer who reacts to the armed stranger in her home with curiosity instead of fear. He follows one rule: never harm an innocent. She, meanwhile, has always wanted to meet a murderer and casually offers him eggnog. Their bizarre encounter turns into a fast, explicit holiday romance filled with forced proximity, possessive devotion, black comedy, and graphic danger. It is a short, deliberately over-the-top story about a serial killer, a shut-in heroine, and love arriving at the worst possible moment.
