A month went by as Nightfright has earned the infamous reputation he wanted, with most of the Pride Ring being scared of him, running away or shaking out of fear at the mere sight of him.
One night, in their Penthouse Apartment, Nightfright surprised Scarlett with a special gift he got her.
"Well, what do you think" he asked her.
"I…I love it. Thank you so much honey" she replied as they kissed.
"I knew you would" said Nightfright.
Scarlett had a wicked grin on her face, holding her very own Grimoire in her hands.
"I'm gonna enjoy reading every single spell in this thing" she replied.
"Not only that, from what I've heard, you can learn some of the easier spells. While the harder ones, you need the book to do it" said Nightfright.
"No. Way. Are you serious" Scarlett asked, overwhelmed.
"Yep" he replied.
Scarlett jumped on him, put her arms around his neck and kissed him again, this time for a little longer. Nightfright stumbled around a bit after that, until Scarlett snapped her fingers in front of him and he snapped out of it.
"So...how's the remodeling of our new base of operations coming along" she asked him.
"Last time I checked was 2 days ago, the barbed wired fences and…security is in place. I haven't checked on the warehouse in a while. I'll go for a bit and be back in less than 30 minutes" he replied.
"OK, I'm gonna read the spells in this thing in the meantime" she replied.
She sat down on the couch and opened the Grimoire, it's magical glow coming off the pages.
"Wow" she uttered.
"Try not to…cast any spells by accident OK honey" Nightfright asked.
"Don't worry, I won't" she jokingly replied.
Nightfright just smiled and shrugged as he got out onto the balcony, got on a Magmabird and flew off to the base of operations Lucifer gifted him.
After a couple of minutes of looking through the pages, Scarlett found a spell that can grant someone incredible abilities.
"Wow, I can't believe that spells like this even exist" she said to herself.
She jokingly read the spell out loud and it accidentally triggered. Scarlett panicked as it went all over the room until it hit her and she blacked out.
10 minutes later, she woke up with a slight headache.
"Ugh, my head" she said to herself as she slowly got up.
"Huh" she muttered as she noticed that she had sharp black nails and her red skin was scaly.
"Oh jeez, did I turn myself into some kind of ugly freakazoid" she asked herself, worried.
She quickly ran over to a mirror and looked in awe after seeing her "new" look. Her nails were sharp and black, her red skin was scaly like a dragon and she had dragon like wings. She was relived that the rest of her appearance was still the same, her straight pointed horns were the same as well as her long black hair.
"Whoa. Oh girl…what a hot look" she said, looking at herself in awe.
She walked over to her Grimoire to take a look at the spell she hit herself with. It turned anyone hit with it into a humanoid dragon, with a few abilities that included: fire breathing, flight, accelerated healing, thick scales, better eyesight and the ability to turn into a full grown dragon at will.
"Wow…what a spell, I think I could get use to this" she said to herself as she looked at her new, sharp nails.
She looked down at herself and noticed that her current clothing was ripped.
"I've got to change into something more...comfortable. Just wait till he gets back. He'll love this" said Scarlett, grinning.
She put her Grimoire down on the couch and went into the bedroom. After 5 minutes, Nightfright came back and saw that Scarlett was nowhere to be found, her Grimoire shut on the couch.
"Scarlett? Honey…where are you" he asked.
"In here" she replied.
Her voice came from the bedroom.
"It happened. I…I accidentally cast a spell on myself" she said.
Nightfright took a deep breath and said "It's OK, I'm not mad. It's your first time with a Grimoire, it happens. Just tell me what that spell did".
"I'll do you one better" she replied as the door knob started to turn.
"I wanna know honey, is this a good look for me" she asked him.
Scarlett came out of the bedroom in a black tank top and shorts. Nightfright's eyes widened and his jaw dropped.
"Oh my fucking god that is so hot" he said.
"You really think so" she asked him.
"Are you kidding? As if you weren't gorgeous enough…all of this please" he replied.
She breathed a tiny bit of green fire in front of his face.
"How's that tiger" she asked him, smiling.
"OK, you and me, in bed, right now" he said.
Scarlett got a wicked grin on her face as she said "Oh daddy..."
After a few minutes, the two of them were in bed, naked and making out.
"Honestly...I think this is the best day we've ever had in hell" said Nightfright.
"I'll say. This so beats that stupid, deadbeat town" she replied.
"Yeah...it...sure does" said Nightfright as he paused for a second.
Scarlett noticed this and asked "Is something wrong"?
"It's just…you know that I killed everyone who ruined our lives and you were OK with that" said Nightfright.
"Yeah and I'm honestly happy and proud that you did all the things you did just for little, old me" Scarlett replied.
"It's just...every time I'm reminded of that dumpster fire, I can only think of what it has become and...everything we went through" said Nightfright.
Scarlett put her hands on his face, worried about him.
"The people that ruined our lives are dead with us dear. You can let it go" she said.
"I know, I'm just…I'm just scared that…I might lose you again" he replied.
"You won't. I promise you, no matter what happens, we'll always be together" she said.
Tears formed in both their eyes as they kissed each other, cuddled up and fell asleep. The next morning they woke up and got dressed to head out to the base so Scarlett can check it out.
"Note to self, go clothes shopping later. Now that I'm like this nothing fits me anymore" said Scarlett.
"It's just the wings, you'll get used to it" said Nightfright.
"Yeah speaking of the wings dear, how do I fly with them" she asked him as she flapped them once.
"Like that, just keep flapping them and lean towards the direction you wanna go. I'll show you come on" he said as he let out his hand.
She took it and they both walked out on to the balcony and braced themselves.
"OK, on three. One, Two, Three" and they both jumped off and started flapping their wings.
"Hey, I've got it" Scarlett replied.
She smiled as she did a flip while hovering in the air.
"See. You're even doing flips, you're talented right from the start" he said.
"Yeah, I guess I really am. Race you there" she said as she flew off.
Nightfright smiled and flew after her. After 15 minutes, they make it, Nightfright passing her and landing first.
"Yeah, be careful of birds. They'll sometimes screw up your flying" he said.
"Right, thanks for the heads up" she replied, a little exhausted.
Scarlett looked around and noticed that the two warehouses were done. They were fully repaired and only needed just a few finishing touches.
"Wow…I can't believe that it's only been a month since this whole thing started and were almost finished" said Scarlett.
"Yes, indeed my dear. Unfortunately…we'll have to put the finishing touches ourselves. The workers did their part in restoring this place, now it's our turn" Nightfright replied.
"That shouldn't be too hard, sounds like fun. And after that…" Nightfright cut her off.
"Our production on living nightmares or this case, living weapons...can start" he said.
They both grinned as they walked towards the warehouses, laughing maniacally.
