The Love Plague

Love is complicated. It’s something that takes time and patience to cultivate. Something that needs to be earned. To the young witch Jessica White, love is something that can and should be acquired using magic. Deeply infatuated with Robin heath, captain of her college football team and known playboy, Jessica sets out to turn him into her idealized boyfriend. With the help of her friend Felix, she devises a love spell that will turn Robin into everything she wants him to be. While everything seems to go fine at first, a problem quickly appears: the spell can spread to other people. What starts as a dream come true turns into a nightmare as the spell runs out of control like a plague, turning all those infected into Jessica’s mindless, lovestruck servants. The Love Plague is written by Alex Miller, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 37: Everything is not 'okay'

*Jessica*

I stood in front of my mirror wearing the gown Robin had gotten me. He had a special evening planned for his goddess and I wanted to make sure I looked my part. I was experimenting with different pieces of jewelry I’d been gifted recently; necklaces, broaches, and rings, most of them gaudy but appreciated.

Just as I settled on a silver locket encrusted with sapphires there was a knock on my front door. Smiling to myself, I went to answer it expecting it to be Robin, our driver, or another of my subjects I hadn’t met yet.

To my pleasant surprise, it was Linc outside my door, now wearing a light jacket over her cheerleader’s uniform.

Linc raised an eyebrow as she looked me over. “I can see being mistaken for a goddess does come with advantages,” she commented.

I let my smile grow. “I’m happy to see you too, Linc,” I told her. “Come on in.” I stepped to the side to make room for her.
