the
table. “You’re crazy. You’re out of your fucking minds!” She stared
with bulging eyes at the infant wriggling on the table. “Why me?
Why do you want me to do this?”
    Vlad templed his fingers beneath his chin. “You see,
my dear, there’s a demon waiting for you in hell, waiting to fuck
you raw for the rest of eternity. You kill your granddaughter and
you’re guaranteed a trip to inferno where your demon lover will
greet you with open arms and bulging cock. Or you can let Angela
kill her and she can go to hell in your place. I don’t think her
young pussy can accommodate a cock that size. She’s tight as a
virgin, not like momma’s old stretched-out snatch. But I’m sure he
won’t mind tearing it a little to make it fit.”
    What little color that remained in Gloria’s anemic
complexion drained away as she stared in horror at Ryan. This was
not the man she had known. Her sweet, shy, loving Ryan, who had
always seemed so awed and intimidated by her. This evil thing could
not have been the same man.
    “But why? Why would you do this? I loved you.”
    “Because I’m dying too, you filthy fucking slut! You
killed me with your diseases! You’ve killed us both! But I don’t
want to die. I’m not going to die. I refuse. And Vlad is going to
cure me. As soon as I help him get you. You or her.” He pointed at
his daughter and for the first time Angela showed a hint of genuine
emotion, flinching away from Ryan’s finger as if it were the barrel
of a loaded gun pointed at her face.
    “You mean …”
    “Yes. I have AIDS. You gave it to me. I loved
you—and you killed me.” His lips twisted into a sneer of profound
disgust, as if he had a mouth full of bile and was looking for a
place to spit it.
    “I didn’t know. I swear I didn’t know. I hadn’t been
diagnosed when we were together. We’d been separated for almost
three years before I found out.”
    “I don’t give a fuck if you knew or not! What does
that change? You want me to forgive you or something? Fuck you! You
want my forgiveness? Then kill that little bastard and give me my
life back!”
    There was a desperate madness in Ryan’s eyes. Fear
of his own extinction had driven him right out of his mind.
    “But if you have it, then …”
    “Yeah, Angela’s HIV positive, but so far she doesn’t
have any symptoms, and her kid appears to be fine. But who knows?
We all might be dying anyway.”
    Gloria turned toward Angela, her eyes brimming with
tears. “Oh my god. No! Not you too!”
    Angela nodded, stared at the floor. “I was diagnosed
last month. None of this matters now. You might as well just do
what they want.” The little teenager stared at both mother and
father with an expression that boiled with hatred and a bitter
resignation.
    Gloria’s eyes swept the floor as she turned away
from that fearsome gaze. What could she say to defend herself? She
had left her only daughter in the care of a rapist and pederast who
had molested her and given her AIDS; a disease he had caught from
Gloria herself. She was just as guilty as Ryan.
    “You’d let your whole family die just so you can
live a while longer? Even your own daughter?”
    “I can always start a new family. I’m young. I’m
fucking rich. I can meet a new woman and start a new life without
the taint of your filth and disease to ruin it.”
    “Then what?”
    “What do you mean?”
    “I mean, if I kill the baby, I’ll go to hell, but
eventually you’ll die too, and where do you think you’ll be
headed?”
    “That’s not for a long time, sweetheart. All I’m
worried about is the here and now and right here, right now, you
need to decide which one of you is going to spend the rest of time
in hell getting their insides dug out and rearranged by that
demon’s dick.”
    Unclouded by narcotics for the first time in years,
Gloria’s mind struggled to find a way out. Ryan and Vlad flanked
her on either side. And in front of her stood the daughter she’d
abandoned—and
