Morgan

Everything had gone a little too wonky today, there was no way she could concentrate on shopping after everything that had happened. So, she told herself she would only spend a few minutes antiquing.

Twenty minutes later and a hundred dollars poorer, she made her way home with a bag full of last-minute decorating ideas for Samhain. She had found some cool old jars she could use for hurricane lamps and some old boating rope she thought she could incorporate into her curly willow chandelier. She didn’t know how, but it would work.

With each step, her mind pinballed between remembering she still needed to clean up and burn sage around the She Shed after last night’s escapade, and wondering if the detective could be summoned again tonight, and if so, could he also manage to wear his gun and his badge, just because? Maybe she might even learn his name.

Control your mojo, Morgan. You do not want to summon him again just yet. Let it breathe. Keep conjuring the same guy and you’ll lose the whole “no strings attached” thing you are going for. And can he even be trusted? He is a Normal, and he might freak out at the first sign of real magic. That would not be good. Besides, just because he is devilishly handsome with a nice cock does not make him trustworthy. Does it? Maybe you should let it lie and try to conjure another spirit entirely and forget about the detective.

Or maybe she could just dig his contact card out of her handbag and learn his name.

Along the path home, Morgan passed over the footbridge that led to a fork. When she reached the fork at the other side, a strange noise startled her. Instead of turning around, she simply paused and remained quiet. She listened. There was the sound of the creek, the rustling of leaves, but something was not quite right. Perhaps it had not been a noise. Maybe it was a spirit that didn’t belong here, fracturing the sounds of nature around her.

She decided against proceeding along the path directly home. Whatever was following her, she needed to shake it…or them.

Morgan turned left instead and headed into the woods, completely off the beaten path. But she knew these woods so well she would easily find her way home. Just to be safe, she used a camouflage charm. A total invisibility spell was too powerful, too risky for her when she was feeling this tired and emotionally spent. Covering her tracks in the dirt, blending with the trees and dampening her aura would be enough to deter anyone with ill will.

In the middle of the woods, she took out her wand and cast an aura charm in an attempt to identify her follower by whatever energy he or she might be giving off. Slipping her wand out of her garter belt, she waved it in the air. A single spark emanated from the end of her wand, and then a scent overwhelmed her. It was the detective.
