Zoe ogled herself in the full-length mirror, taking in the sight of her changed body.
"Zoe? You okay? Thinking straight?"
The young demoness licked her lips. "Absolutely. Hand me the rock."
A visible streak of uncertainty crossed Heath's face. "Um, y'know, maybe I can just take the warlock cock hexes off myself."
The ex-elf cast an askew glare at the vampire.
"A all I'd need is some salt, little incense, positive energy, clean it out in a day or two "
Zoe's scowl lanced through Heath's mind. A thermometer behind Zoe flooded red.
Quickly, he stood to leave, stone in hand. "Look, Zoe, I don't think it's a good idea "
The girl's irises flared a scarlet red. She hissed, bearing fangs that grew even longer than Heath's. "GIVE ME THE STONE. NOW!"
If Heath's heart beat, it would have exploded out of his chest. She was growing, changing in warped and twisted ways, becoming something fitting of her new heritage.
"Shit " he stammered, as Zoe reached for him with raking talons
"How long do I have to mull this over?"
Karyn sighed. "Until tomorrow night."
"Damn! Why so soon?"
Karyn frowned. "That's when "my friend" comes to visit."
Jon nodded. "So, I'd be just like you?"
"Yeah. Except no tits."
They laughed, finally starting to lose the last of the hanging tension.
Jon took her hand. "Let me sleep on it?"
"Sure. You can sleep on me, too, while we're on the subject."
"Man, you're shameless."
"Yeah, and you love it, and you know it!"
A smile from the human. "Maybe maybe I do."
Karyn lost her train of thought. "Jon I "
Noise from upstairs whiplashed them to reality.
