It all happened so fast. One moment, you were in an alleyway texting your boss and the next, you heard what sounded like elephants coming down the street.

You peaked your head around the corner only to be pinned to the wall, a woman, not just any woman, Verosika Mayday, holding her hand to your lips, winking at you as her finger was to her lips in a shushing motion.

"Sorry about this, cutie," her velvety voice entered your ears and the next thing you knew, her black painted lips were on yours.
