This choice: Zhham, the djinn whose body you inhabit, steps in • Go Back... You sat there, entranced by the beautiful man, who slept soundly on your chest, your prem and saathee, your forever friend. Not find the need for sleep, you gently petting his shaggy dirty blond hair as his warm breath danced across your skin, causing goosebumps. You wanted to wake him, so that he would show you the breadth of his love once again.
"Do you truly think this is love, you dense fool? The voice spoke in the back of your head once again, this time louder, and more insistent. "You are under the effect a spell that you wove yourself, and yet you cannot realize it?"
You ignored the nagging voice in the back of your head and held the warm body of Riley close. But this time, the voice only grew louder. "Oh no, I will not be silenced. I have lived thousands of years longer than you Liam, and while my echo only presides because of you... I have returned. That is the body I have crafted you are playing with, which you have let this... youth defile. I have laid with royalty and demigods. Never have I felt his humiliated.
You blinked and stared at the ceiling, before your corporeal form melt away into smoke, leaving the snoozing Riley cold and alone in his own bed, and you were seemingly forced back into the Urn of Remembrance. You felt touched the soft, likely ancient carpeting.
"What?" You protested. "Cal, was that you? I was with my love! Return me at once!"
"No," You heard a voice speak, once familiar to your own lips. "It was not the spirit of the urn. It was me. It was... you.
Smoke gathered at your feet, the ancient oil lamps around the room darkened, and the mirror was brought before you. You saw a reflection of you... but it actually you. It was yourself, it was Liam, freed from Zhham's form. But it was behind you. Translucent, floating slightly above you, as if standing on some unseen platform.
"You have disappointed me, though I did not know what to expect for a child of mud," she scowled, wearing her face much better than you could. "An absolute novice at best."
"Zhham, I guess that's who you are? I never asked to be you, to be... combined with you, or whatever," you responded in your own familiar voice for the first time in what felt like a while. "Cal just called me into the urn and filled me with you. I never wanted tits or to lose my dick, but here we are," You responded frustrated, crossing your arms. "But if I have them, I am going to use them... to be with my love, as they are his preference." You were absolutely sure of your feelings, that they weren't some trick of magic.
"Love? Mud boy, you aren't in love," Zhham scoffed. "You are ensorcelled by your own clumsy spell." She pulled the smoke from around your feet, and balled it up like a physical object. "I will undo the spell from here. If these feelings are true, they will remain. I will make you immune to this wish from here and moving forward. Otherwise, I am doubtless that he will take advantage of your affection." She looked away, briefly, as if remembering something. "They always do." She sneered.
She began to manipulate the smoke, pulling shreds of lightning from its make, which fizzled in the air. You started to feel the change within you...  indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
