... and candles. Her curse lay dormant unless three ingredients were present: candles for the only light, a mirror in front of her impassioned face, and an intense orgasm.
Conceived during the Feast for the Equinox of the Gods and born on the solstice, Freya’s birthday coincided with rituals. Intoxicated, stoned, and hallucinating, having drank copious amounts of psychotropic “elixir” during the rituals, Freya retired to a dark, candlelit antechamber. One of the priests, a man twenty years her senior, followed. On all fours, her hand between her legs, fingering her clit, she took his hard shaft in her most sacred of magical places, getting herself off to the lusty expressions on her reflected visage. As he thrust deeply inside her, his turgid cock pile-driving into her sopping wetness, she exploded in an orgasm of earth-shattering intensity, and the world around her morphed into something else.

It wasn’t until she’d hidden her nude and terrified self in some woods that she was able to stop mindlessly fleeing. That world, or delusion, or whatever it was, was, ultimately, a different iteration of her world. The names were the same, and everything somewhat resembled her stoic reality. In this particular realm, she was still a high school sophomore, but she was at a boarding school, having a passionate, lesbian affair with her roommate, Jenna, and was a known and respected rebel, not at all feared by her peers.
