Seeing Double: Mirage & Jane (Weekly Challenge)
Mirage didn’t believe in monsters. Not ghosts or demons or any supernatural creature of the world. She knew men were worse than anything in the shadows, and that genetics could make someone into something more, not an ancient ritual or “curse.” She was a woman of science and logic more than anything. So why she always felt on edge during the month of Halloween was a strange thing. Maybe it was left over from her time as a child and all the Day of the Dead celebrations? Whatever it was, she was determined not to let it bother her.
She sat at the table drumming her fingers along the smooth surface as she waited for her guest. She’d heard and read quite a lot about the woman who’d gone off into the jungles to learn and explore, and she admired that. So Mirage took up the opportunity to send the woman a letter asking if they could get to know each other. Ladies with bright minds who wouldn’t be unnerved by things like spirits and monsters. Right?
