One Chapter Only
Kate had two cell phones and one satellite phone. One cell phone was her personal phone while the other was her business phone. That phone was a burner phone and damn few people knew the number to either. Her satellite phone was considered an emergency phone and no one but the company she had service with knew that number.
Kate was stepping out of her bathroom after taking a nice cool shower. It was eighty-two degrees outside already. It was May and it only got down to eighty degrees last night. She had broken down and tuned on the split system so she could get some sleep. She was trying to get acclimated to the weather so she was turning it off again.
Kate was still maybe a touch wet. Her hair was anyway. She had finally let it get longer and she couldn't get it to curl to save her soul, so it was straight as an arrow. Since she lived alone she selected a thong bikini swimsuit bottom and that was it for today.
Walking through her bedroom and into the sitting room followed by going outside onto the patio deck, she walked past the pool that was calling to her. She walked past the beckoning chaise lounges and into the living room. Then she went through the living room and into the dining room followed by the kitchen.
The kitchen was cut off from the rest of the house. However, this meant no one would see the dirty dishes from last night soaking in the sink. Sighing, she loaded the dishwasher and turned it on. Next came searching the refrigerator for some fruit for breakfast.
She put it in a bowl, walked past the pool, and straight out to the beach. Out there were four more chaise lounges and two small tables. She had the beach all to herself. She had a neighbor but he was way over there. He could walk down here but so far no one had.
Beautiful white sand beach, turquoise waters, and the sun had only just come up behind her. Gotta love Turks and Caicos island life. Slow, calm, and relaxing. The only question was what should she do today? Hop in the car and leave Parrot Cove and go into Caicos and do some shopping? Perhaps practice her poison making. She needed to keep her skills up.
But even from here she heard a phone ringing. ADDAMS FAMILY. That meant her burner phone was ringing. If the offer was good enough maybe she knew what today would be. So she was up and a second later she was in her bedroom answering her phone.
"Yes?" The options of who this could be were limited.
"I have a new job offer. They are willing to pay a cool two million so long as it doesn't look like murder," the man told her.
"Send the files. I'll look it over and get back to you," Kate said and hung up. Now she needed to find her laptop. By the time she did the files had already arrived.
She was still reading by the time lunch arrived. Before she even took a bite she knew she was going to take the job so she found her cell phone and made a call.
"Josh, we're flying to New York City. You have three hours to make the arrangements. Rent yourself a car and find a hotel room. We may be staying for a number of days," Kate warned him.
"Yes, Miss Beckett. I will be ready," Josh confirmed and hung up. He had work to do. File a flight plan, check the maintenance logs, do a sight inspection of the plane, and run checks. He also had to make sure it had more than enough fuel for the flight as well as make sure the galley was fully stocked. Fortunately, he lived close by.
Kate located her burner phone and called him back. "I accept. You know where to send the payment once it is complete." Kate didn't wait for him to say anything and hung up.
Now she needed to pack some clothes, makeup, and other things. Find her poison kit and make sure it contained everything. It was about the size of a computer bag. And she needed to bring her laptop as well. So three bags in total. None of which were overly large or heavy.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
Thinking Josh should be ready, she gathered up her bags after getting dressed for hot weather in New York City and hung her head. Some times she could be so scatterbrained it was almost scary. She walked into the living room and tapped the Urn. The doors were already closed and locked and all the split systems were off.
"Clean the house while I'm gone," Kate called out and watched a mist come out of the Urn. It barely formed into a person and proceeded to start cleaning. It would do so for the next eight hours and then stop, not to do anything again for twenty-four hours when it could be activated again.
Next she walked over to a tiny little statue barely the size of a Christmas ornament and tapped it. "Blood, guard the house. Anyone but me enters, rip them to pieces. Drag the dead body outside and bury it," Kate commanded it and instantly a larger than normal Doberman Pinscher showed up and sat there.
"Good boy, Blood. You're such a good dog." Kate petted him and kissed his head. She had no doubt that Blood would do his job. He was more than capable.
Kate stepped outside and locked the door behind her. And like the wind she moved to Provo Air Center. It was on a different island but that didn't present a problem for her. It took her less than a minute.
Walking inside she was satisfied yet again with the modern décor. Main open atrium with offices upstairs. Free coffee and breakfast twenty-four hours a day. It had a number of services. She would have to go through Customs when she got back. If she came back here. She owned two other properties, so she might go there instead after this job. She would cross that bridge when she reached it.
"Josh, are we all set?" She saw him waiting for her. Josh was smart and a capable pilot. He was also one of her lovers. However, as smart as he was he had a weak mind. He was easily controlled.
Kate was called a LOVE LICH. Contrary to the term LICH, she was not dead nor was she an undead. She was dedicated to all things love, though. She was more than capable of having more than one lover. Josh was one such lover. She had powers and immunities to go with all her other powers and immunities. Either with a single lover or an orgy of lovers, she never tired. There was no human alive that could keep up with her sexually.
Now Kate might be a Love Lich, but she was also a WITCH and an ASSASSIN. She was also immortal. Literally, she was destined to live forever. Being an Assassin was her job. Combined with being a powerful Witch, she was extremely dangerous.
However, as a Love Lich she was still searching for her ONE TRUE LOVE. Even after all this time and all the lovers she'd had through the countless centuries, she had yet to find him. She didn't ache for him but she did miss him. Her lovers were nice but the love she could give to her One True Love was something she was waiting for.
In the meantime she would kill people for a living. Yes, she was rich. Seriously rich. She had also used a great many names over the centuries. In this life she was Katherine Houghton Beckett.
Save for her lovers she lived alone. Her parents had died countless centuries ago and long since turned to dust. She thought about them from time to time. She needed to or she might actually forget them. They had been dead for so terribly long. Memories tended to fade. Not forgotten, just not easily remembered.
"We are ready, Miss Beckett. LaGuardia Airport is three hours and thirty minutes. We will need to go through Customs," Josh reminded her.
"Naturally. Does the Ducati have fuel?" Kate queried.
"Yes, Ma'am. The Galley is also full. Hopefully, I have thought of everything." Josh didn't want to disappoint her. She was the single most beautiful and sexy woman he had ever met. She was also the single most sexual woman he had ever met. She had won him over easily. He was totally devoted to her. The things she could do to his body was sinful.
"Then let's get going. You did arrange for a rental car and hotel room for yourself?" She didn't want him to forget that.
"Of course, Ma'am. Toyota Camry or equivalent and the Crosby Street Hotel in Lower Manhattan. All the paperwork is waiting for you if you need me." He was hoping she needed him. Sex was on his mind.
"Thank you, Josh. I'm sure I can find you when I need you." She was thinking maybe tonight. Wear him out and get him screaming from all the pain and pleasure she could give him.
Gulfstream 650ER
Its nonstop range can take you from London to Cabo San Lucas, New York to Riyadh, or London to Hong Kong.
It was especially designed and built for her. It had a galley and restroom in the back. Two beds, two chairs, one sofa, and an entertainment center. It had also been modified to hold her Ducati Panigale V4S. It was red, of course. How could a Ducati not be red?
Her jet had two doors forward of the wings. One was for stairs and one for the lift that held her motorcycle. Ride on, secure it in place, and lift it up and into the plane. She just had to make her way around it on the inside to reach the back of the plane. She didn't need a rental car.
Kate sat and reviewed her target one final time. She just needed to find him once she arrived. She didn't care if he was a good person or an Evil person. It was a job and that was all he was to her. She was more than willing to kill anyone and everyone that got in her way. Couldn't care less who had to die. Man, woman, or child.

Rick wasn't exactly fond of his life. Puberty had been his one, big, defining moment and it was a big one. A very big one.
You should try reaching puberty and wake up in the middle of the night in severe pain as wings come out your back, a tail comes out your butt. Technically it was just above the crack of his ass, but close enough. Plus find horns on your head. Curved rams horns, no less.
Then double over in severe pain after that was over with and he was standing in the bathroom naked looking himself over.
All right, save for the horns and the tail, he kind of liked what he saw. The wings were jet black as was most of the tail. However, he saw two things right off the bat. First his Cock was bigger. He didn't even have an erection yet but it was bigger. He kind of liked that.
He also liked the washboard abs that he now had along with the muscles in his arms. HE HAD GUNS! Even his legs appeared to have more muscles. He wasn't bodybuilder-muscled. He could at least reach his arms over his head, unlike some of those idiots.
He flexed his arms in the mirror to see them like any teenager would. But while he was doing that and smiling, a new sudden intense pain hit him. It made him double over and cry out from the pain.
It was a barren kind of pain. He needed something and he didn't have any of it. That was when visions of him eating pussy and fucking a pussy danced in his head. He had to have pussy and he had to have it now!
It was just he didn't have a girlfriend. What boy his age had a girlfriend? Hell, what boy his age had even had sex before? Look at pictures of naked women in Playboy, sure. But actual sex!? Yeah, that hadn't happened. But those visions dancing in his head said that was just what he needed.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
Her name was Virginia Caldwell. He wasn't sure how old she was. Maybe twenty-five or so. Older than he was to be sure. He had seen her and knew where she lived.
She had answered the door and Rick wasted no time in grabbing her head and kissing her. He didn't know just why but he was pushing saliva into her mouth and she was swallowing all of it. That seemed to have calmed her down and she was kissing him back.
He had kicked the door closed with his foot, pulled the robe off of her to expose her naked body and her tits. They were nice tits, too. Well formed, if not just a bit droopy. He loved massaging them. But he wasn't here for tits. He was here for pussy.
Taking his clothes off, he had her on the floor while he planted his head between her spread legs and started licking. He had sort of dreamed of doing this before but wasn't a hundred percent sure about it. As she got wet down here he started tasting her and he absolutely liked what he was tasting.
It took a little time but she eventually lifted her butt off the floor and climaxed as she cried out. Now this was an amazing taste. He wanted more. NO, he needed more, so he kept licking, thought of inserting a finger into her pussy, and began pumping.
That got her to cry out yet again. Her pussy was seriously tasty. When he stopped finally, he could feel her juices all over his face. But what he really needed right now was to fuck her. Something he had never done in his young life. Touch himself yes, but not this.
He was really shocked! When he looked down at himself, he not only had an erection he had a massive erection. It was easily twice what it had been before. Much longer and much thicker. Now that was a cock to be proud of.
However, he was a novice at this and since his hormones and his need was in charge he rammed his cock into her pussy while lying on top of her. He heard her cry out from the pain but he didn't care. His magnificent Cock was in someone's pussy so he started pumping in and out frantically. As fast as he could.
The feeling of fucking a woman was like nothing he had ever dreamed it would be. He had dreams but this was a hundred times better. Problem was it was also his first time so he climaxed quickly but kept his erection so he continued pumping in and out furiously.
She was making all kinds of noises while he fucked her. Once he climaxed again, he just lay there with all of his weight on top of her. He had done it. He wasn't a virgin any longer. No one was going to believe this.
Finally getting up and pulling out of her, he looked down. She was a bit sweaty and a mess. There was also a touch of blood between her still spread legs. That had him questioning if she was a virgin too. He had his first cherry.
She was still awake and looking up at him. "You will remember none of this. EVER! You don't know me. Can't remember me." Rick proceeded to put his clothes back on and looked at her one final time. Her face was fairly plain but she had a really nice body. It was now burned into his brain.
Once he was home he cleaned up a little and went back to bed. Virginia Caldwell. He was going to remember that name. She had taken his cherry. He had hers and she had his. He saw her again from time to time but he never had sex with her ever again. Then suddenly she moved away and he never saw her again.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
Over the years he'd had sex with a vast number of women. He seemed to need sex roughly every two weeks. However, over those years he refined his technique. He wasn't just a fucker any longer. He was a lover. He was also far more discriminating. They had to be young, very pretty, have big tits, and a great body.
He was also learning just what he could do. He could change what he looked like. He could look like anyone he wanted to. He could hide his wings, tail, and horns, and look normal or like anyone else.
He could also charm anyone at any time. See someone, charm them, and steal a kiss from them. He could also effectively disappear. He didn't know what to call it but suddenly no one saw him. Plus, he could walk right though doors, walls, or even floors and ceilings. Except everything was blurry. The building that used to look solid didn't any longer.
He also took the train far outside of the Bronx and walked to the coast. Here he was alone and could practice his flying skills. Pump his wings to gain some altitude or just glide. Finally, his tail was good for something. That was when he got an idea.
So, the next woman he had sex with he used his tail to push it up her ass. Boy, did that get a reaction while he was fucking her pussy! An instant orgasm was almost always the result.
He was honing his technique. It was just none of them would remember him. He couldn't risk it. He had wings, a tail, and horns. Spending a lot of time in the Public Library told him what he was.
He was an Incubus.
He did a lot of reading about that. But a lot of what he read was conflicting. It was like a lot of these writers didn't really know the first thing about an Incubus. They were just making stuff up to sell a book.
But all of them had one single common theme. He was a sexual creature. He lived for sex. He invaded women's dreams and had sex with them. Or physically showed up and had sex with them. What one book said had him back home in front of a mirror and hand mirror. He saw that his skin was flawless. Perfectly baby smooth, everywhere.
He was also thinking he was getting more and more handsome as he got older. That was until one day he wasn't so sure he was getting older. Nothing ever really seemed to change. When he stopped growing he stopped aging. He had been twenty or twenty-one for years now. He should be forty but he still looked twenty.
All this led him to what he was today: a fucker of woman and a thief. The book he had written was rejected by everyone, so he had turned to theft. He was actually pretty good at it, too. His strength meant he could open nearly anything. Practically any door. A few he even ripped right off their hinges and cast aside. Others not so much.
He stole anything and everything. He could make himself look like anyone he wanted. So even during the day he could walk right in and smash things and gather up what he was interested in into a cloth bag and walk back out. Round the corner and change to look like someone else entirely and walk right back past that same store just as the police arrived.
Rick had started out stealing jewelry. However, that left him with a problem. How to sell it? So he switched to stealing coins, usually gold coins like Krugerrands or coins that were similar. He also had gold bars and silver bars. All of that was far easier to sell.
He was also finding out that stealing didn't bother him until one day Black Pawn said they would publish his book and take a chance on him. All he had to do was come up with the $1,500. They took care of everything else.
Just… on this day he got a call. His mother had died backstage during one of her shows. He didn't know who his father was and his mother had never said anything about him being a Demon. An Incubus.
That one day had changed everything. Suddenly he was alone. No more parents and no real friends. Part of the no friends part was because he had a short temper. Not everything brought out his temper. They just needed to press the right buttons and presto, he damn near killed someone. He used his Charm ability to get them to forget who had done that to them. And voilà, no more friend since he never talked to them ever again. Just to be safe.
He was also learning that after twenty or so years of fucking women roughly every two weeks, none of them ever ended up pregnant. Oh, he climaxed inside them every time and he never, ever, used a condom.
He was Sterile.
Now there was one woman now that he fucked a lot and made damn sure she never remembered a thing. He did it for more than one reason. One she was blonde with big tits and he liked that. The other was that she was his editor with Black Pawn.
Gina Cowell. The ICE QUEEN he called her, usually behind her back. She was as cold as an iceberg. Damn near emotionless and calculating. She never took no for an answer. Someone said no today but they were expected to say yes tomorrow. She never let up. She was pretty enough but not really that pretty.
So he never made love to her. Not like the other women. Some of those he actually made love to. There was just something about them. No, Gina got FUCKED! Fucked hard and fast and he hoped it hurt. He even fucked her ass.
One time, this latest time, he had fucked her pussy, followed by fucking her ass, followed by fucking her mouth. If there was shit on his Cock, it went in her mouth. Yeah, he liked that. He had plans to do it more often. Was it evil of him? Ask him if he gave a shit…
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
So, here he was. Gina had talked him into doing a book signing. It was last minute. Not to the bookstore apparently since they were ready and waiting for him. All set up with piles of his latest book. A Derrick Storm book. He was about ready to kill off Derrick Storm. He was getting boring. How many times could you save someone? Save a city? Save the entire damn planet? He was getting stale and he hated that. Knew just what Storm was going to do next. KILL HIMSELF came to mind.
"You are?" Rick took the book, looked at them, and smiled. Wrote the name they gave him, signed his name, and smiled. "Thank you for coming."
"You are?" Rick took the book, looked at them, and smiled. Wrote the name they gave him, signed his name, and smiled. "Thank you for coming."
"You are?" Rick took the book, looked at them, and smiled. Wrote the name they gave him, signed his name, and smiled. "Thank you for coming."
"You are?" Rick took the book, looked at them, and smiled. Wrote the name they gave him, signed his name, and smiled. "Thank you for coming."
He was a goddamn robot. Nothing was different. Nothing changed. Gina was definitely cleaning his Cock later tonight. He was getting even for this, so help him.

Kate and Josh had cleared Customs so now both of them were back out at the plane. Kate had her three small bags strapped to the back of her Ducati and was holding her helmet.
"You have your credit card?" She gave Josh money so he could do what he wanted. He also needed money for jet fuel. If the plane needed maintenance he was to call her and she would increase the money in his account to cover the cost.
"Yes, Ma'am." Josh knew it was in his pocket.
"Keep your phone handy to tell me your room number. I may have need of you tonight." She meant sex. He was one of her lovers after all.
"Yes, Ma'am." Josh smiled at that. His Mistress was a damn good lover. He also loved the evil things she did to his body. She knew just what to do to a man's body to give pain and pleasure at the same time. Yes, his Mistress had skills.
Kate put on her helmet and fired up her Ducati, set her GPS destination and took off.
Oriental Suite at the Mandarin Oriental
Overlooking Central Park, the Hudson River, and the Manhattan skyline from the fifty-second floor of the hotel. Living room, dining, study, bathroom with tub and separate shower, toilet and bidet. Bedroom with sitting room. The Presidential Suite wasn't available so she was slumming a bit. Just 1,798 square feet.
She sat in the study with her laptop, connected to the Wi-Fi, and made sure her laptop was secure. It was only then that she did a search for her target.
"Washington DC. Figures. Why would a Senator representing the State of New York actually spend any time in New York? This is what I get for assuming. Still, he has to show up eventually, right? He better or I'm moving and his death will be far from pleasant." Now she needed something to pass the time till tonight when she could go have some fun with her lover, Josh. She'd leave him bruised and screaming while smiling.
Not that she had a pleasant death in store for him anyway. She would just have to think of something more accidental that caused severe pain that lasted a while. Maybe she would even get to watch him die. Spontaneously combusting and turning into ash came to mind. Why he had to die wasn't her problem. She got paid to kill and two million was more than enough. Maybe one day she would buy home number four since she only had three. Just three.
The one in Hawaii in Kona was just 7.75 million. The one in St. Moritz, Switzerland was 15.015 million. And the one in Parrot Cay, Turks and Caicos Islands was 13.95 million. So Hawaii was actually the baby of the three.

"Richard Castle." Supposedly he was an author and he was signing his own book for fans today, so Kate grabbed a book that said something about Storm and got in line.
"Is he any good?" Kate asked the young lady in front of her.
"He's the greatest! I love his books. I hear he's a ladies man and that he will sign your chest for you in addition to your book." She was thinking of getting him to do both. "Maybe I can talk him into giving me his number."
"Really? …Why don't you just give him your number?" If she wanted him to fuck her that badly just give the man her number, then find out where he lived, and go there. Fucking was fine, but making love was better.
Kate watched her open her mouth and then close it. "I hadn't thought of that." Suddenly she was searching her purse for a pen and a scrap of paper. It had Kate rolling her eyes. There were times she wished she wasn't human. The human race could be so dense and stupid far too often. She wanted to be Vulcan or something.
A Vulcan Witch slash Assassin slash Love Lich. Now that sounded like a combination.
Finally she was close enough and she could see him. He was at least handsome. Very handsome even. Pity he was fully clothed and sitting so she didn't know much else. However, he also looked bored. Oh, he smiled for everyone so far. But she knew a forced smile when she saw one. If he didn't like this why was he doing it?
Kate watched the woman in front of her leave him a note after getting her book and her boobs signed. The note was still there.
"Kate, you can make it out to Kate." Kate watched him write. "You look unhappy." She also felt conflicting waves coming off of him. One second he was angry, bored. Though beneath it all she felt Evil. Interesting. Maybe he was worth another look.
"I'm fine, thank you for coming." Rick handed her book back.
"No one should be fine, Mr. Castle. Life should never be fine," Kate countered. "It should be embraced and lived for good or bad. That is living."
Rick finally looked at her and she was drop-dead gorgeous. He had seen models that she could put to shame. Hell, all of the women Gina had hanging off his arm at book launches or charity events didn't look half as good. Even the clothes she was wearing, while not remotely revealing, made her look amazing. Simple but elegant.
"Perhaps for you, Kate, perhaps for you." Rick was not convinced.
"It's Kate Beckett, Mr. Castle. Perhaps I will get the pleasure of proving it to you one day." Kate took her book and moved on. Just then she saw a blond-haired woman with big tits that she was more than willing to show off. She was standing a little behind Mr. Castle and was giving her a look.
Kate simply smiled back at her and passed her by. Once she was watching the next woman, Kate waved her finger at her, said a few words, and turned her back as she walked away.
Hearing her scream, Kate grinned in satisfaction. Then there was a lot of yelling. They would all be gone soon since she wasn't concentrating to keep the spell going. Currently she had about fifty little spiders trying to crawl all over her body. A few might even actually bite her. Getting in under her clothes and her push-up bra to expose her chest even more. Perhaps even make it down her panties into more private places. Kate was hoping she enjoyed that. It felt really good to her. Being Evil had its rewards.
Now had she used her hand instead of just her finger there would be hundreds of the little devils. Kate wondered if she was getting soft and instantly dismissed the notion. She just didn't want to get spotted doing it.
Rick had actually enjoyed what had happened to Gina. She kinda deserved it and he hadn't lifted a finger to help her. And it had an added benefit. Gina had rushed off to the restroom the second all of them had scurried away just as fast as they had suddenly arrived. It left him alone to go back to signing his books in a little better mood. At least until she came back.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
"Mr. Castle." Kate spotted him coming out of the bookstore presumably done signing books and she still had hers.
"Um, Kate, isn't it?" He had heard a lot of names today. Though none of them looked like she did. With her beauty she could stop traffic. Mostly because the cars up front had crashed since they weren't watching where they were going being too busy watching her.
"Perhaps we should talk, Mr. Castle," Kate suggested. "Over coffee or tea? Unless you prefer iced tea."
Rick remembered their brief conversation. "You want to tell me how great my life is."
"Something like that. Or perhaps I have a different perspective on life that you've overlooked," Kate offered. Being Evil wasn't so bad. It was all in how you looked at it and how you used it.
"I don't think I've overlooked anything, but I could use a coffee." And it allowed him the pleasure of looking at her some more. Anyone this beautiful was worth several looks.
"Excellent, lead the way, Mr. Castle." Kate let him lead since this was his city. She didn't live here and very rarely visited.
"Call me Rick or just Castle. Try not to age me prematurely, please," Rick asked her.
"As you wish, Just Castle." Kate smiled at him and smiled even wider when suddenly he stumbled after looking at her. Kate knew she was pretty and could be extremely sexy when she desired. She was a Witch and a Love Lich. Take her natural beauty, add those two things, and it only increased her beauty. Plus, who would suspect anyone that looked like her was an Assassin? I mean honestly.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
"How is your tea?" Rick inquired since she had asked for tea while he had coffee.
"I prefer to make my own but it's passable. I believe I heard some screaming and yelling?" Kate started there.
That had Rick smiling. "Gina, that's my editor who sprung this book signing on me at the very last second, suddenly had this mini-swarm of spiders crawling all over her. Sadly, they left almost as fast as the arrived."
"Really? I don't know what attracts spiders but you don't sound so broken up about it. If anything, you finally sound happy. Living life instead of just living," Kate offered.
"Gina knows how to press my buttons. I call her the Ice Queen," Rick explained a little.
"Ice Queen. I'll have to look into that. See if spiders are attracted to ice." Kate smiled and even chuckled softly when Rick finally broke out into a short laugh.
"Gina is good at her job and Black Pawn stuck me with her. So I endure as much as I can." Rick was suddenly not sorry he was thinking bad things about Gina. Somehow around Kate it didn't sound so evil.
Kate grinned at him. "So, if I found a way to turn her into oh, say a Popsicle, you wouldn't be that put out by it?"
"What flavor?" Rick asked and that had Kate laughing. He liked her laugh. It had a good sound to it and somehow it only enhanced her beauty.
"I'm thinking Prune Juice," Kate suggested and now Rick was the one laughing. "Have you lived in this city long?"
"All my life. I was born here. Save for a trip to Canada, Mexico, and Paris once, I've never left it. Unless you count Vegas. Lost my fair share of money there more than once."
"Mexico can be a dangerous place these days. Far too many drug cartels. Paris is nice, though it's expensive to live there. Do you speak Spanish or French?" Kate watched him shake his head.
"I speak Spanish fluently myself. Yo mismo hablo español con fluidez," Kate told him. "I also speak French fluently. Je parle couramment l'espagnol moi-même.
"I tried Italian once but couldn't get the hang of it. German as well. Guess I'll just have to stick with Spanish, French, and English." Kate shrugged. "C'est ce que c'est."
"You're doing better than me," Rick commented.
"Stick around, Castle. Maybe I can teach you something. Perhaps teach you something about yourself as well." Kate could practically feel the Evil he was hiding or resisting. He shouldn't be. He should be embracing it. Making it work to his benefit instead of letting it run his life which she was betting was happening.
"I know who I am," Rick countered. He was a monster. Pure Evil, if he let it. It was a constant struggle.
"Do you?" I doubt that very much. It's not who you are, Castle. It's what you do with it. Mold it, bend it, make it do what you want. Don't fight it. Train it, teach it. You'll be amazed at what you can do when you master that," Kate told him.
"Interesting advice from someone so lovely." There, he'd said it. She was gorgeous.
"Thank you. Every woman wants to think that someone somewhere thinks she's lovely. We like to hear it, too. So, what's next for you? It's only," Kate looked at her watch, "4:22."
"Probably go home and contemplate dinner and watch a movie." Rick knew it was nothing exciting.
"Boring. You're supposed to be living life, not just living. Give me your pen. I know you have one." Kate held out her hand and waited until he gave her his Sharpie. "Now your arm." Thankfully he was wearing a short sleeve shirt. It was too hot out for long sleeves.
"I believe the woman in front of me left you her number. No doubt you left it behind." Kate took hold of his arm and wrote her cell phone number – her real cell phone – on it. "There, now you can't leave that one behind. I don't know how long I'll be in town, but if you get bored, perhaps we could have a night of dancing. There has to be a club around here somewhere. Or think of something else. Something far less boring than watching TV. That thing will rot your brain if you're not careful. Something that will get the heart pumping. Tell you that you're alive and you want to stay that way."
Rick looked at his arm and couldn't place where the first three digits came from. It wasn't 800 or even 888. Nor the notorious 555 seen in movies.
"It looks like I have little choice." His Sharpie wasn't going to wash off that easily.
"No, you don't. It's been a pleasure, Castle, and thank you for the tea. Perhaps we will meet again once you get bored enough." Kate smiled at him, rose, and left, making damn sure she put some extra sway in her hips since she was positive he was watching. Who knows, he might be fun in bed. She could use another lover.
Speaking of lover… Once she was outside she called Josh to find out what room he was in and told him to get out the bed restraints, be naked, and she would be there in an hour. Kate had plans to fuck his brains out and do very wicked things to his body. She was in the mood to have some fun.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
The problem with hotel beds was that you couldn't tie someone to the bed so easily. It was usually on a platform, not on legs. But Kate had an answer for that.
Kate was having lots of fun listening to Josh beg her, plead with her to let him climax. But she knew him well enough to not accidentally let him climax. He had tears running down his face as he pleaded with her, begged her until finally he screamed and Kate watched his cum shoot up in the air over and over again.
Then she released him, added clamps to his nipples, and squeezed them tight. Next she applied a scrotum ring that squeezed his balls out so they were easier to play with. However, as nice as that was it wasn't what she wanted.
"You want me to fuck you, don't you, Slave?"
"Yes, Mistress. Fuck my ass. Leave my hole gaping wide open, Mistress. Pound my ass," Josh begged. "It needs a good fucking. You are my Mistress. My two holes are yours, Mistress."
Kate found the Strap-On and the largest dildo that he had packed like a good slave. She lubed her Cock and his ass, then slid her Cock into his ass, and listened to him moan.
Kate worked up to the point where she was really pounding his ass over and over again. She was actually concentrating on her own orgasm rather than what she was doing to him.
It wasn't until she finally climaxed that she looked down at her slave lover. He was moaning from the pleasure and crying from the pain. Kate pulled her Cock out and ordered him to spread his cheeks wide so she could see.
His hole was wide open, one of her best jobs ever. But she was done with him for tonight. She'd had her fun. It was just the one orgasm but it was enough for now.
Kate got dressed and left him to clean up, remove the nipple clamps, take off his scrotum ring, and take a shower. She was betting he would even play with himself after she was gone. She might even do the same. Though while she might be in his mind, Kate was going to have Rick in hers.

Kate checked her computer to see if her target had left DC yet and saw that he hadn't. Most people might not know where Senators were or even how they got there, but she wasn't most people. Still, it meant she couldn't do anything so she gathered up her things and went down to breakfast.
She chose all fruit and after she was done, she moved to the lobby. She sat down and took out her phone. She was doing a search for what was in New York City when her phone suddenly rang. Kate smiled wide. It was Castle. She had reached him.
"Beckett." She didn't want to give away that she knew who it was.
"Good morning, Kate. Castle here."
"Castle, what a pleasant surprise. What's on your mind?" Kate asked.
"Are you free this afternoon? Say for lunch and a little after?" Rick queried.
"Why, Castle, are you asking me out on a date?" Kate practically beamed.
"Sounds like it, doesn't it?" Rick said. "Shall I come get you or would you prefer to meet me there?"
"I happen to like being served, so I suggest you come to me. The Mandarian Orient. Do you know where that is?" Kate teased him since he had told her he was born here and had rarely ever left it.
"I think I can find it," Rick said dryly. "Dress casually and no dresses."
Kate raised an eyebrow at that. "Give me fifteen minutes and I'll be ready." She hung up and went back to her room on the fifty-second floor.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
Kate was already down in the lobby when Castle walked in wearing blue jeans, a Hawaiian shirt, and tennis shoes. He certainly meant casual. Good thing she was prepared with what she had brought with her.
"I'm all yours, Castle. Show me what you have planned for us." Kate had no idea what to expect.
He walked her out to the parking lot and she saw he had a Mercedes. She didn't bother with cars like that one. They were too difficult to get worked on based on where she could live. None of her cars were anywhere this nice. She liked fine things but she also didn't need the trouble.
"Where are your parents? Do they live in the city as well?" Kate questioned him as he drove.
"I never knew who my dad was and Mother died a few years ago." Rick shrugged, "So it's just me."
"My condolences, Rick. My parents died years ago as well. It's been mostly just me, too." Then Kate stated the obvious. "You write books."
"I started writing while I was in boarding school. When I was a freshman I happened to be in the library. A man came up to me and gave me a book – not a library book, either, one for me to keep. He told me to do what my heart told me to do and then he left. That book got me into writing."
"My first book was rejected by everyone until Black Pawn gave me a chance. That first book cost me money but it did really well. That and twenty-some odd books later and all of them made the New York Times Best Seller List. I never left again. I've been fortunate."
"I suppose that explains the Mercedes. It's not exactly my style but it's a nice car." Kate didn't want to insult him.
"My other car is a Ferrari F355 Spyder," Rick told her, wondering if that was better.
"Really!? Next time you'll have to bring that one." Now that car, Kate was thinking, she might like.
Rick raised both eyebrows but kept watching where he was going. They hadn't even finished their first date and she was already talking about a second. The single most beautiful woman on the planet wanted a second date!
They blew past all of Central Park and just kept going. "Do I get a clue?" She had little idea what was up here.
"Let's see." Rick needed something that would keep her interest but not tell her too much. "It's in Yonkers."
"Perhaps something more than that. I don't even know where Yonkers is. I don't live anywhere near here," Kate told him.
"No? What brings you into the city?" Rick questioned her.
"Work, but he's late so I'm forced to wait." Kate tried again. "My clue?"
"Let's see. …It's call iFly. Does that help?" Rick turned his head to look at her since he was at a red light. He liked looking at her. She was just as gorgeous from the side."
"iFly?" Kate thought about it for a bit. "I think LaGuardia and JFK are south of here. So, unless it's a small privately owned airport, I can discount a large plane, meaning we're not flying anywhere. Which is good since I didn't bring my passport."
"You're not far off." And that was all she was getting from him.
"Am I now? As long as it gets my heart beating, I approve," Kate said.
"I'm pretty sure it will do that," Rick told her and kept driving.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
Kate didn't understand until they walked inside. That was when she spotted the tube and watched a worker help someone sailing in a free fall – like jumping out of a plane, only safer. Now she was smiling and stepped up to Castle and kissed his cheek while they checked in.
She had to go through training on what to do: get suited up, put on a helmet, how to enter, and to let him guide her. But he quickly learned that she was a natural or had done this several times before. She was also the single most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
Once her turn was over she was standing off to one side and had both of her hands over her mouth as she watched Castle flying all over the place. She couldn't help herself, she had to laugh at his antics! Yet somehow she had the feeling he was doing that on purpose. There were times she could swear he knew how to fly. As in really fly…
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
Rick was done and unsuited. He joined Kate. "So is your heart pumping? I did my best to find something unexpected." His answer was a kiss from her and she kept on kissing him. There was just something about her kisses. They pumped him full of something he hadn't felt in a long time.
Control Emotion: A love lich can have a creature she is kissing and allows within close range to fall under the effect of good hope. (a morale bonus)
When she broke from the kiss and looked in his eyes, he had only thought his heart had been beating. It was pounding now. He had a beautiful creature in his arms and she was kissing him. Wow, what a kiss it was! She certainly knew how to kiss.
"Are you still with me, Castle?" She hadn't meant to overdo it with that kiss. She could do better still. A lot better.
"I think so." Though Rick wasn't that sure.
"Since my heart is beating fast, what's next?" Kate inquired.
"You feel like a challenge?" Rick grinned at her. "Loser buys dinner and drinks."
"Bring it on, Castle. Do you think you can afford a lobster and steak dinner with wine?" Kate bet he could given he was driving a Mercedes and had a Ferrari.
"Since I'm not buying because I'm not losing, I think I can manage," Rick said with a smirk.
"Pretty bold talk, Castle. You want to increase the bet? Loser has to kiss the winner. …Naked?" Kate raised an eyebrow at him. Was she pushing him too far? She loved that kiss and felt something powerful coming from him. She was still looking for her One True Love. Had she found him? She wasn't going to know if she didn't try. If nothing else she could add him as another lover.
"Sounds like a win-win to me," Rick countered.
"I said the loser was naked, not the winner." Now Kate was conflicted if she wanted to win or lose. It was just she hated losing so Castle was getting naked.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
"Amsterdam Billiards and Bar." Kate read the sign before entering. Immediately she saw pool tables. Lots of them. On the way to the bar to get a table and a beer she noticed Foosball and Ping Pong. So all she had to do was win two out of three. She figured she could do that. She had pretty good dexterity and a good eye. She had to be; she was a Witch and an Assassin.
Kate, however, was Evil. She popped the top two buttons on her top so that when she bent way over and stuck her butt out it gave Castle a good view down the front of her top and he could see her tits and her bra. So far it seemed to be working because she was winning.
But it appeared someone else was watching as well. She had been making sure that all the guys here got the point that she was here with Castle and not looking to get laid by someone.
Except that didn't stop someone from grabbing her ass and putting a finger between the cheeks of her ass. He quickly found out why she was an Assassin. A swift hit in his stomach took the air out of his lungs just enough for her to slap his face into the side of the pool table, breaking his nose with a nice crunch sound. Now he was bleeding and there was blood on the side of the pool table.
Kate followed that up by a kick to his left knee cap, breaking it, which dropped him to the floor crying out in pain mostly for his knee.
"ANYONE ELSE WANT TO FEEL ME UP!?" Kate challenged the whole damn place convinced that she could take the lot of them, no sweat. She was highly skilled. That fucking jackass got off easy.
Naturally, it delayed their game and she had to explain it to the police who looked at the video coverage of the incident.
Rick had gotten a peek at her drivers license that said Hawaii. "Hawaii, huh?"
"That's where I was at the time and I still have a house there. I did mention I was visiting," Kate reminded him.
"That you did and that was way cool, by the way. How you did that. You'll have to tell me how you know how to do that one day." Rick was really impressed now. Absolutely gorgeous, very sexy, and knew how to handle herself.
Kate stepped up to him and raised up on her toes like she was going to kiss him. "Are you going to be naked when I do, Castle?" Kate gave him a really quick kiss that was too fast for him to kiss her back.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
Kate won the pool games and they moved to Foosball. Kate soon learned that Castle knew the tricks to this game and she was getting creamed. Of course her competitive nature didn't want her to lose but she was too far behind to catch up after she caught on.
Rick grinned at her. "One, one."
"I can count, Castle." Kate retorted and they moved to Ping Pong.
It wasn't long before Kate realized that Castle sucked at this game. He was thinking he could put his male muscles to use and kept trying to blast the ball across the net. But every time he did he screwed up – he never learned. In the end Kate mopped the floor with him.
Rick was leaning over the table after being creamed. He watched as Kate walked over to him and bent in close to his ear. "Prepare to get naked, Castle. Your place or mine? I'll even let you buy dinner."
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
"Nice place, Castle. Kind of looks like you. Lacks pictures, lots of leather, no plants, no knickknacks. Needs color." Kate walked around and looked it over. It was nice but it definitely needed help. It was almost like her hotel room. Nice, simple, but bland.
Kate found a place to sit down. "All right, Castle. A deal is a deal. Get naked or no kiss." She sat back and waited.
Kate really expected him to just stand there and strip naked. But he wasn't. He was shaking his ass and slowly popping button after button. He did everything slowly right down to how he took off his shoes and pulled his pants down.
Then he spun around while still wearing his boxer and finally she got a good look at his bulge. He was healthy based on what she could see. However, by now she was soaking wet and wanted him. So she was on her knees and yanked his boxers down exposing his Cock. It promptly got licked till it was wet enough to go down her throat.
Kate didn't stop till he climaxed in her mouth. She removed her shoes and pulled her pants and panties down. Then she got Castle on his back, lowered herself down onto his Cock, and proceeded to ride him. Josh was nice but Castle was better. Much better.
"Not yet, Castle." Kate slowed way down but squeezed his Cock a little now and then. She wanted to tease him.
It took time but finally she heard what she wanted to hear. "KATE, PLEASE!?" He needed to climax and he needed to climax bad. How she could do that sitting on his Cock was amazing. However, from down here he was looking up at a vision of a Goddess. She was so beautiful. Her tits weren't all that big but they were perfectly shaped.
"Not yet, Castle. You have to beg me. Call me Mistress since you are my slave now."
"OH, GOD! …OW!" She had pinched both of his nipples really hard.
"That's Mistress, Slave. Get it right or you might never Climax tonight. I think it's called blue balls. If you can't call me your Mistress you're going to have a serious case of blue balls, I promise you."
"GOD, KATE, PLEASE!? …OW!" She had pinched one of his nipples really hard. "Mistress, please."
"That's better, Slave, but not good enough. You want to Climax in my pussy, Slave?" Kate questioned him just to see if he had learned his place yet.
"Yes, Mistress, please," Rick begged her.
"You are my slave, aren't you?" Kate asked him and squeezed his Cock a little.
"Yes, Mistress, I'm your slave. Please for the love of god, Mistress, let me Climax." Kate finally saw tears running down his face. She was getting closer.
"You want to fill my Pussy with your Cum, don't you, Slave?" Kate bent down some and began grinding herself on his Cock.
"Yes, Mistress, please. I beg you." Rick finally used the right word and Kate bounced up and down on his Cock to get him to Climax inside her.
Kate heard him groan loudly and could feel him climaxing inside her. That had her squeezing his Cock to get every last drop. Then the impossible happened.
Castle grew jet black wings, ram-like horns out of his head, and a tail appeared off to the side. And just as instantly her pussy was filled by a massive Cock. The size of which had never been inside her before. He was HUGE!
Now Kate had lived a long time and knew a lot. He was an Incubus, a Demon. Kate planted both hands on his chest and leaned down till she was just over him.
He was only just beginning to calm down but he was still inside her. His Cock felt amazing inside her. Kate kept a hand on his chest and reached up to run her fingers over one of his horns. Finally his eyes opened and he looked at her.
"You're an Incubus. A Demon." Kate still couldn't believe it. She had found an Incubus.
"Uh-oh!" Some how that orgasm had caused him to lose control. Rick immediately tried his power to make her forget. "You will remember none of this."
"That doesn't work on me, Castle. Your mind powers mean nothing to me. I'm older, stronger, far stronger than you can imagine. So my new Lover is a Demon. Lucky me." Tell me, my Demon, are you my One True Love? The one person I've been looking for… for Centuries?
"So, I'm a Lover now, am I? You don't seem afraid of me." Rick kept looking up at her. She was still the single most beautiful woman he had ever seen and she was sitting on his Demon Cock. All of his Cock. No woman in his lifetime had ever done that before.
"I'm not what you think, my Lover. I'm far older than you can imagine. Even as a Demon you haven't lived that long. I've seen things, done things you couldn't possibly imagine. I have done things in my life. You may be the One True Love I have searched for all my life. We need to find out if you are indeed him.
"I can teach you, my Lover. I know things you don't know. We can do things we have not yet dreamed. We will live a very long time. You cannot yet imagine the things we'll see and do. Join with me, my Lover. We can do great things. I can teach you to be you. You don't have to be afraid. You don't have to be alone. I will not die on you and you will not die on me," Kate told him and squeezed his Cock even as large as it was.
"You don't know how Evil I am or can be," Rick cautioned her.
"That's why I'm going to teach you. Being Evil doesn't have to be what you think it is. I will teach you. Use the Evil, not let the Evil rule you. You will learn. It isn't the end. It's only the beginning," Kate promised him.
Rick looked down at where his Cock was still buried inside her and yes, he could feel her squeezing his Cock. She was offering him a future when he was sure he didn't really have one.
"You know I'm a Demon. So what are you?" Rick questioned her.
"Are you ready for me?" Kate searched his eyes. "What you need to know is that I'm a Witch and a Love Lich. I'm human, I just never died. I don't have an answer. I age roughly a year for every one hundred years, more or less. Thanks to my age I have great power and a lot of skills. I will show you.
"I will teach you all you need to know. Right after you make love to me again, my Lover." Kate smiled at him and leaned down to kiss him. She wasn't afraid of his kisses.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
Kate had moved out of her hotel room and moved in with Castle. For the last two days she had been showing him how to listen to his Evil and pick and choose who and what he was.
However, she suspected he was capable of something and she showed him just how fast she really was. From downtown Manhattan she took him with her all the way out to Fort Tilden. She wanted to see him fly and get him to unleash what she thought was inside him. It was an old abandoned fort from WWII.
"Point into the darkness. There's nothing in there but concrete. Make a fist and point. Dig deep. You have a power inside you. It won't rule you so long as you understand it. Now point and release. I'm right here," she promised, "and nothing bad will happen.
"Feel the power flow through your body. You want to discharge a ball of energy out of your hand." Kate stood there and waited and watched him make various faces and even start breathing heavy. Then all of a sudden a purple ball filled with lightning burst out of his hand and flew into the darkness where a gun used to be long ago.
"That's it! Well done, Lover. Do you know what that was? That was Eldritch Power. The stronger you get the more powerful it will be. Plus, you can cast spells. We can start those next time. For now just practice your Blast. Make it just happen instead of forcing it each time," Kate told him.
"Eldritch Blast is just power that's in you. You'll never run out of it so long as you live. At your power this Blast has a range of one hundred twenty feet. However, you can turn it into a Spear that has a range of three hundred feet. We'll get to that eventually."
Kate offered an option instead of killing. "Your Blast doesn't have to do damage. You can use it to push people. Force them back."
"You mean like the Force? Like a Jedi Knight?" Rick wasn't sure he believed her.
"Very good, just like that. Push a person, push an object. You can only push, you can't pull. You'll learn, I'll teach you. I can't do it but I've seen it and know about it. It's not Evil unless you make it Evil," Kate assured him.
"If I teach you Pact of the Chain you can gain a familiar. A dedicated to you companion. You can summon a Sprite, a Pseudodragon, a Quasit, or even an Imp," Kate told him. "We can discuss that later."
"Isn't a Sprite a Fairy and an Imp is a tiny Devil?" Rick was still on that option.
"So you do know. That's good. Another option is you can cast Darkness and it will plunge everyone, including you, into total darkness. However, you can cast Devil's Sight, meaning you can see in total darkness," Kate told him.
"Book of Secrets would be an excellent choice for you. It makes a spell a Ritual instead which is beneficial for you." Kate was full of information.
"Cool, so do you have a companion?" Rick queried since he didn't see one.
"I do, she's a Kikamora. She's under eight inches tall and is presently on my shoulder whispering into my ear. For her size she's incredibly fast, totally invisible all the time. Should she or I fall she can cast Feather Fall that will allow us to just float down.
"She's also very brave. I've never actually seen her myself, but she tells me she had green skin and long black hair and that she's stunningly beautiful."
"I don't see her or hear her," Rick pointed out.
Kate broke it to him. "You can't; she only talks to me."
"Bummer, so what's she telling you?" Rick was curious.
"I can't tell you that. It's embarrassing." Kate then turned her head to look at her. "Well, it is. Now hush," Kate told her. "I'm training my Lover who just might be my True Love."
"So what's her name?" Rick asked. "I can't just call out Hey You."
"Her name is Puyo. I didn't give it to her, so don't ask. Now, back to training. You can't run out of power ever, so keep shooting till it just happens," Kate instructed.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
Rick didn't believe just how fast she was. He didn't know how she saw where she was going. It was just one big blur and suddenly they were at his front door waiting for him to find his key to unlock the door.
"How did you get to be so fast?" Rick inquired. "I can't even figure out where we're going."
"I'm a Witch and a very powerful one at that," Kate told him like it was obvious. "What I am is hungry." Kate headed for his refrigerator and opened it. "There's not much in here." She was going to starve.
"I'm a Demon, I don't eat much food," Rick said then arched an eyebrow. "I eat something else."
"Ah, yes. You eat my pussy. I think I'm going to like having you for a Lover." Still, it meant she was going to starve. Kate took something out and recoiled from the smell. She dumped it in the trash. "This thing is growing something." That went into the trash too.
"Take-out menus are in the upper left drawer. Just what is a Love Lich?" Rick questioned her. "Since Lich suggests Undead."
"Well, I'm not. I'm just practically immortal. Love Lich. My lovers empower me. The more lovers I have, the more power I have. Though if I find my True Love I will have all the power I will ever need.
"I have abilities that can overpower others' emotions and even control those with weak minds. I have several powers of Love. I'm totally immune to certain things. My Love Conquers All can bypass other people's immunities and allow my spells to affect them.
"I can't die so long as I have love to give. Which is why I want to find my True Love," Kate explained.
"Pizza?" Rick inquired.
Kate shook her head. "Chinese. I need my phone." She patted herself till she found it and called and placed an order. "Thirty to forty-five minutes."
Kate walked over to him and slipped her arms around his neck. "What do we do while we wait for my dinner?" Kate smiled at him, kissed him, and continued kissing him till there was someone at the door.
Once again that night they both found out just how good a lover the other was and that they never tired no matter how many orgasms they had. Rick loved it since she gave him all the Cum he needed to live.
Kate loved it because he was a damn good pussy eater and she loved being fucked by him.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
Kate had found out her target was finally in the city so she was in Rick's kitchen cooking.
Rick walked in and stuck his nose in what she was doing. "What are you cooking?"
"I'm making a potion. I am a Witch, you know. This one happens to be a WitchGlyph. I need to draw a Glyph first and then pour this to get my spell to work. It has an area of affect of one mile but only affects the person I want it to. He just has to walk into the area for it to affect him," Kate explained.
"Is this why you're in New York City?" Rick thought he had it right. She wasn't doing anything else but go out on dates with him and make love to him.
"Yes. I have an assignment and I'm expected to succeed at it. So I will. The best part is I don't even have to be there." Kate was positive it would be all over the news. It wasn't every day that a United States Senator died.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
They made love again that night till each of them finally gave in and stopped. Each was having more orgasms than they'd had in months. A Love Lich and an Incubus, neither of which actually got tired.
The next morning Rick got called into Black Pawn. Apparently Gina wanted to talk about something. That allowed Kate to go out, draw her diagram, pour out her potion, and activate her WitchGlyph. Now all she had to do was wait.
Several hours later Rick came back. "What did Black Pawn want?" Kate was curious. He was her lover and maybe her True Love.
"Gina wanted to talk about my next book, how many book signings I would be doing, and when I would be finished so she could schedule a book launch party. A book that I haven't even started yet." Rick plopped down next to her and felt a little better after she kissed his cheek.
"Gina. Is she blonde with big tits?" Kate asked.
"Yeah, that's her," Rick confirmed.
"I can cast a spell on her," Kate offered. "It won't be any trouble."
"Only if you can get her to change into a different person. I don't call her the Ice Queen for nothing," Rick grumbled.
"Let me think." Kate needed to mull this one over. "I can create another WitchGlyph and brew a potion. It will summon a large Pit Viper. It won't kill her unless she has an allergic reaction to the venom. Probably just send her to the hospital." Kate could hope it killed her but that was all. "The snake will just up and vanish after a short time."
She could use something other than a snake. A Dire Bear came to mind. It would rip her to pieces before it vanished.
"She's already had spiders all over her." Rick remembered that. "Was that you?"
"Maybe." Kate tried to be noncommittal. "She gave me the Evil eye after talking to you. It was just fifty little spiders for all of two seconds." Kate grinned wide. "It was fun listening to all the screaming."
"It was. You're sure it won't kill her?" He didn't want to kill her but he did want her to suffer. The Ice Queen needed some humility, though he wasn't sure this was going to do it.
"Pretty sure. I'll go shopping for the ingredients tomorrow. I just need to know where to draw the Glyph." Kate was betting Rick could handle that part. "See, it's not all that Evil and it's fun." Kate leaned across and kissed his cheek.

Kate was watching her Gina potion brew when Rick called her over. He was watching the TV. "What, Lover?"
Rick filled her in. "A US Senator just walked out in front of a trash truck. It hit him and ran over him with the front tires and the rear tires. Someone named William H. Bracken. They're saying he was pronounced dead at the scene."
"That's stupid. Why didn't he just use the crosswalk? Let me guess, jaywalking was more fun and more direct." Kate shook her head.
"New York City." Rick shrugged. What could he say? Crossing the road could be dangerous in this city.
"We can go to my house in Hawaii after this. That or Switzerland. Hawaii has nine bedrooms, eight full bathrooms and two half baths, 6,825 square feet. It's in Kona on the Big Island. It's not beachfront but the beach isn't far.
"Switzerland is in St. Moritz. It's a condo. Three bedrooms, three bathrooms, one partial bathroom, 2,540 square feet. It has a perfect view of the lake."
Rick raised an eyebrow. "Just how many places do you own?" How many homes did she need?
"Only three. The other one is in the Turks and Caicos. It's where I was before I came here. We can go there if you like," Kate offered. "It's only three and a half hours by plane. It's right on the beach. We could skinny dip in the pool or ocean. I have lots of sunscreen."
"Skinny dip, huh?" Rick was almost sold.
"We could make love in the pool or on the beach. I don't have a neighbor." Kate smiled at him. "MY POTION!" Kate jumped up to check on it. She still had to give it to Gina for pissing off her True Love. She was going to defend him for the rest of her life.
Her job here was done. She had killed her target and made it look like an accident. Now she was two million dollars richer. Since she spoke French she was thinking maybe a house in France or in French-speaking Quebec. It was good to have options.
This job had allowed her to meet her True Love and fall in love with him. She was sure it was him. She could get Rick to tell her that he loved her, too. She could make a potion and force him to but she wanted it to be real.
ФΞ| [] |ΞФ
"You have your own plane?" They weren't walking toward the airport but to a row of hangars and several separate runways.
"It's a Gulfstream 650ER. It has lots of range. We could have flown straight to St. Moritz or even Kona. Turks and Caicos is easy. This is Josh, he's my pilot and a dedicated employee."
