Summary
“Come the fuck on,” Crystal swears, “Are you fucking with me? The woods are actually sacred? Don't tell me that burying David is the thing that fucked me, because I cannot go back to that life if I can't get rid of his body-”
The Cat King scoffs. “Oh fuck no, these woods aren't sacred.” He shudders. “Honestly, I hate them.” But then he fixes her with the curl of a smirk, eyes gleaming with curiosity. “But you, Crystal Palace? You fascinate me.”
Crystal bites her lip, tasting blood, but she doesn't wince. She doesn't flinch. She has done far worse on this eve, and she has a feeling that she'll bargain for far worse if she wants to get out of this in time to escape-
“Can you help me?” She asks, and she's not one to ask for help, but she needs to get out of this town in time. She needs to run, and run far, and never fucking look back.
“Not unless you make a deal with me, sweetheart,” the Cat King says.
(After hitting the end of the line on her relationship with David, Crystal is burying his body in the forest when she finds out that the local legends about the spirit that haunts the forest are real. What she's not expecting, though, is that spirit offering to help her out.)
