It's a beautiful fall day and my roommate is dragging me to a bonfire party in the woods.
Turns out it's all an elaborate prank that involves me being tied to a tree.
They call it a "virgin sacrifice." An offering to appease the gods and bring order back to our screwed-up world.
The sacrifice is fake, but the rest of it is very, very real.
The ropes. The bonfire. The virgin, too.
Lucky me.
I try to get away, but I'm outnumbered.
When the fire get out of control, everyone runs, leaving me helpless and doomed.
But then a mysterious stranger appears. He slashes through the trees like a million strikes of lightning.
He unties me, but he has no intention of letting me go.
This obsessed, possessive older alpha male wants to keep me in his mountainside house forever.
And I think I might let him...
