Corporate hell is real. Fortunately, so is the paperwork.

- Bureaucratic death imagery
- Non-graphic violence
See all.
- Demonic coercion
- Gaslighting (workplace)
- Brief body horror (possession sequences)
Aimee Barrett didn't mean to summon a demon. She just wanted the copier to work.
Now she has a soul-bound contract, a demon named Delrith for a supervisor, and one hellish deadline. The company's fast-track program is a front for a possession scheme — promote the humans, hollow them out, hand them over to Hell's management. Aimee has been groomed to help run it, or end up on the possession list herself.
But Aimee didn't survive fifteen years of corporate chaos by following bad instructions. She knows how to navigate HR mazes, exploit compliance policies, and spot a loophole at fifty paces.
She has until 6:00 PM to fight back, rewrite the rules, and file a complaint so legendary it echoes through the underworld.
