CELESTIAL FIRE
KYRIE
By the time we’re standing at the gates of damnation, Jack Sorensen will
beg me to throw him to the Devil. I will paint our path to Hell with his
blood. With his dreams. His aspirations. His failures, each one rendered by
my hand. I will leave a trail of his destruction behind us that will shine for all
eternity. And I will enjoy every fucking second of his torturous journey…
Just as soon as my acceptance speech for the Allistair Brentwood
Philanthropy Awards is over.
I scan the crowd. Dr. Sorensen’s absence will become a thin scar over my

it’s Dr. Cannon’s name he announces to give the introductory speech, not Dr.
Sorensen.
No, not Dr. Sorensen.
Jack Sorensen, whose research wouldn’t be funded without my efforts to
raise over two million dollars for his field school. Whose students have been
awarded scholarships from the fund I created. Whose accolades have been
stacked on the foundation that I built. Without me, Jack Sorensen would be
just another brilliant academic whose work shines like a distant star in the
sky, pretty but underwhelming, always battling to be freed from the black
blanket of mediocrity. Because of me, Jack Sorensen shines like the harvest
moon.
I am the sun whose light reflects on his cold, remote mask.
And I am the celestial fire that will destroy him.
“…and since joining the West Paine University faculty three years ago,
