He had been my boss for over a year and he had divorced about 7 month ago. After that he had started to get a little too close to me. It made me feel very uncomfortable. 

One day he told me about a new job opportunity in his new opened pet shop. I was not making enough money so I thanked him and accepted his offer. My first day was very easy, all I had to do was feed and pet the animals. I had nothing to do with the costumer service and I did not mind asI hate people. 

One day I was alone in the shop as my boss had left and a woman walked in and said she wanted a black-haired guy. I had no idea what she was talking about and she said a head. A black-haired guy head. I was still very confused but then she pointed at a cabin in a corner. I had never opened the cabin and I did not have a key. A key was lying on the counter and I went to see if it worked. The inside of the cabin was full of shrunken heads. I was in shock buy handed her one with black hair that looked like a male. My boss walked in and saw what was going on. He helped the woman out and turned around and looked at me with intense eyes "haven't I forbidden you to touch anything but the animals?" I took a step back "yes... but you weren't here.." He sighed, "You have to understand. The people in that cabin weren't people and they deserved to die." I nodded and after a few seconds added "what about the rest of them?" He smiled, "that's used in the dog and cat food." I liked the idea of that. Maybe he was not so bad after all? 

He went behind the counter and looked into my eyes "this is our secret, right?" "Yes" I said. He kissed me. We kissed and I decided that this was perfect.
