Drabble 21 : A curse.
Toby was bored. The moment wasn't especially boring, but this situation was quite unpleasant.
"The answer is no, he said with a firm tone."
He was now with a beautiful woman, who was older than him, trying to make advances to him, in a non subtle way.
It was a witch too, able to do powerful spells, and who apparently couldn't understand that someone could say no to her.
A thing he just did.
The witch's face twisted in an atrocious grimace, and she send him death stares. But Toby didn't care.
He had no idea of the future consequences.
§§§§
Some days later, they saw each other again.
The witch send again a furious look to Toby, who tried to afford it. The wave of jealousy that was coming from her would have been difficult to miss, this last one was almost bursting, as anger was consuming the witch.
Toby, with a woman of the court. And they were kissing each other.
Anger grew little by little, as hatred.
As she wouldn't have him, no one would.
The curse she would cast on him would cut him from all humanity.
Definitely.
A smile appeared on her face, as she knew what would happen.
§§§§
A scream of terror crossed all the town.
Some inhabitants were running, afraid.
There was a wolf.
It was Toby.
This one was running, scaring people, trying to explain himself in vain, just scaring them more.
At this moment he understood he made a mistake.
And he cursed the witch.
He didn't regret her death later.
Even if this curse helped him to escape another one.
