A Curse and A Kiss - Volume 2

The crisp morning air carried a palpable hum of anticipation. Kara, usually a creature of habit, had foregone her morning cuddles with Verina, a whirlwind of nervous energy propelling her through the preparations. Verina, still half-asleep, watched her love with a fond, knowing smile.

"I want to shoot fireballs!" Kara declared, bouncing on the balls of her feet.

"Of course, my love," Verina murmured, still luxuriating in the warmth of the bed.

"And lightning, like you! Oh, and I want my 'pocket dimension'!"

Verina chuckled, pulling herself upright. "That's a bit more advanced, but we'll get there, you have my word."

"Aaaaaa, I'm so nervous! Let's not waste time, come on!"

Breakfast with Lara followed. Lara, newly transformed, sported a fresh, slightly red cut on her chin where her servant had shaved her timid beard, a testament to her embrace of a more feminine appearance. Verina, with a few drops of golden potion, quickly healed the wound, leaving Lara's skin flawless once more.

"Magic... First lesson today, eh?" Lara quipped, joining them on their way to a secluded spot in the garden.

"YES!!!" Kara shouted, sprinting ahead, her excitement radiating. Today was the day her magical journey truly began.
