Maiden Fair

When Frank and Mattie find they cannot have children of their own they hire a surrogate, but in a twist of fate Mattie then falls pregnant. Fearing the surrogate's child will become an unwelcome intruder in their family, Mattie hires a killer to resolve the problem.

What she didn't count on was Emil, a half demon with a taste for blood, now unleashed by the senseless murder and with vengeance in what remains of his mind.

What follows next is a roller coaster of violence and evil as Emil seeks those he holds responsible and exacts his own unique methods of retribution.

Maiden Fair is the third story from Once Upon a Time in Texas, a collective series of dark variations of popular fairy tales by Timothy C. Hobbs.
