Jacob walked up to the large 2-story black house in a state of a lot of confusion.
Yesterday, he had found a check on his doorstep for about 500$ from someone named "Ms. Galatea"
Alongside it was a small note saying to come to this specific address to receive 10x the amount of money all just for "lifting some supplies to my car"
This was obviously quite suspicious to Jacob, but he was just desperate enough to investigate this for some quick cash. Not to mention he was also quite heavy-set and buff, and couldn't be beaten so easily in a fight.
He knocked on the old, wooden door of the house. Without hearing a single footstep, a woman answered the door.
She was wearing a bright red pantsuit. She was blonde, and she looked to be in her late 40s, although definitely not less attractive for it.
"Hello! Jacob, right? I'm Ms. Galatea. I saw that you're a good man for this job on your Facebook."
"Yeah but why did yo-" he said before being interrupted by the woman's hands stroking the side of his face.
"Magnificent jawline, Jakey. The girls must be all over you." she said before giggling and pulling away.
"That was very inappropriate Ms. Gala..uh...you!" he said in a gruff voice. "This is all very suspicious."
The woman pulled out a large stack of 100$ bills.
"Will this help you forget, and help me clear up some stuff."
"... Probably."
"Great! My back has been starting to ache lately. Glad you're here to help."
Galatea guided Jacob to the basement full of the stuff she needed carried out.
"Don't stress yourself! Just stack them up in the living room nearly. And be very gentle! I'll stay up here." she said with a smile as Jacob headed down.
He heard a slight scoff from behind him as the woman followed him down. Based on her current angle and her compliments earlier, he could tell what had her attention.
Once Jacob got down to the bottom of the basement, he was surprised. There were paintings, sculptures, and an endless amount of other types of artistry all packed together in the basement. And most of them seemed to depict photorealistic images of random people, most of them very hot.
There was this one sculpture of bronze of a man and a woman kissing passionately. But as Jacob got closer, he could see that their eyes seemed to depict some sort of terror.
"Impressed?" said Galatea, suddenly inches away from Jacobs back, causing him to jump and stumble.
"Damn! How'd you get down here so fast?!"
"I like to be a bit sneaky. I see you've found more of my more recent work "
"Wow...you must have worked a lot to make this much recently."
"Indeed I have. That one there is one of my favorites. Isn't it beautiful?"
"Looks that way. Sure gave the man there a lot of junk in the trunk." He said, jokingly spanking the bronze man.
"Ooooh that was hot. Do it to him again." Galatea said.
Jacob was unnerved again, but pretended to laugh back.
"Anyway, I wanted to move all this stuff out, not just because I have a gallery coming up, but also to make room for my next most ambitious project."
She pointed to the center of the room.
On the floor there, was a large slab of marble.
