Chapter 10

When a witch should eat her own hat

F inding the witch’s house shouldn’t have been this difficult. She lived in a small town, Isis had expected that they would have to walk along one street and she would have found the house directly. But no, she didn’t have that kind of luck. There was only one street name in the whole town! Who the hell named all the streets the same? It was utter bullshit. By the time they had asked their way twice, and finally found the right house, Isis was pissed.

She needed to calm down, Marie-Ariel — the witch — had done nothing to deserve her wrath.

Behind her, when they knocked at the door, Athanaël was calm.

“Hi there, can I do something for you?” The witch said right when she opened the door.

“I need your help with something you posted online,” Isis answered.

“I see,” Marie-Ariel said while motioning them to enter a living room that could be confused with a vivarium with how all existing surface was covered with plants.

The witch removed the ones that were on chairs and put them on the ground to let Isis and Athanaël sit.

“So what’s the problem?” She asked without taking a seat.

“Was there a loophole in your summoning circle?” Isis answered.

“Why? Why would I want a loophole in my summoning circles? Who would want to get out of a contract with a succubus demon?” She eyed Athanaël with renewed interest.

“Just answer me, please.” Isis wanted this to be over with, but the witch didn’t seem to be wanting the same.

She moved to Athanaël’s side.

“So you’re the demon… you look delicious. I don’t see why this one would want out… if she doesn’t want to fulfill a contract with you, I could volunteer… I’d make all your dreams come true, demon…” Marie-Ariel said in a sultry voice.

“Is there or is there not a loophole in your circle?” Isis snapped. She hadn’t calmed down before entering the house and it was getting worse. The witch was thoroughly getting on her nerves.

“No there isn’t. Is that all? If it is, you can leave. I’ll keep the demon.”

Athanaël that had been silent so far chose this moment to finally talk.

“She summoned me, I’m not getting into a contract with you, witch.”

It wasn’t what Isis had hoped to hear but it was still better than being left to go back home alone. It was like this day was a roller coaster for her emotions.

“Well, that’s a shame…” Marie-Ariel told Athanaël, and then she turned to Isis. “From your reaction, I gather that you had no idea?”

Why was that witch so cryptic?

“No idea about what?”

“That you’re a witch. That circle wouldn’t work with just anyone. You really think I would be stupid enough to put something everyone could use online?” She shook her head. “It takes the sacrifice of a virgin if you want that circle to work if you don’t have any power. You didn’t kill anyone lately, did you?” She assessed her with a single look.
