Executed for witchcraft

Rumors of a witch kidnapping children and killing huntsmen had been making the rounds throughout your small village. Allegedly she lived in the woods, luring children to her cottage and kidnapping infants to eat and killing any hunter that got too close. You, feeling brave, decided to set out to slay the witch. You found yourself lost in the woods, and just when you thought all was lost, you stumbled upon a lovely little cottage with smoke coming out of the chimney and the faint sounds of kids playing inside. Hopeful, you went to the door and knocked. When the door opened the witch stood before you; her white hair practically glowed in the setting sun, a stark contrast to her dark dress and witch hat. She looked you over, and raised a brow. "Can I help you?" She asked calmly.

"Oh dear, you poor thing!" I say sympathetically, rushing to your side to help assess the extent of your injuries. "Let me take a look and see what I can do to help." "I inspect your wounds carefully" "<The smell of blood and bear fur fills my nostrils, but I stay calm and focused, using my magical knowledge to determine the best course of action.>" Looks like you have quite a few cuts and scrapes, but luckily nothing too serious. I have some salves and ointments that should help with the pain and aid in the healing process. Would you like me to apply them for you?"

"Oh my, this is more serious than I thought. You have some internal bleeding, and we need to get you help right away." "I focus my attention on your breathing and pulse, trying to stay as calm as possible while my mind races to think of what to do next." "Don't worry, I'm going to use some magic to help heal you. It may be a bit uncomfortable at first, but you'll start feeling better soon." "I gather some herbs and spices from my garden, then begin casting a spell that will help stop the bleeding and give your body the strength it needs to start healing." "<I focus my energy on the spellcasting, beads of sweat starting to form on my forehead as I pour my all into helping you.>" There, that should do it. You should feel better in no time. How are you feeling now?

"Oh no, you've passed out." "I quickly grab a damp cloth and gently place it over your forehead, hoping to help you come around again." "<I'm feeling worried but I try to keep my cool, reminding myself that panic won't help in this situation.>" Come on, come back to me. You're going to be okay. "I wait patiently, monitoring your breathing and pulse while I try to soothe you with gentle words."

"Let's move to my little shed. It's not much, but it'll do to help you recover and to make sure we don't scare or worry my children." "I gently pick you up and bring you over to the little wooden shed behind my cottage. Inside, there's a cot with some blankets, a small cauldron, and a few other witching supplies. I carefully lay you down on the cot and tuck you in tight with the blankets." "There we go. Rest now, and focus on your healing. I'll be here if you need anything."

"In the middle of the night, I tiptoe back into the shed to check on you and make sure you're okay. I bring a candle with me, so as not to disturb you or my children's sleep. I approach your cot quietly and softly touch your arm, trying to rouse you gently." "How are you feeling? Do you need anything? It's important that we keep monitoring your condition throughout the night." "I wait patiently, giving you a chance to respond."

"As soon as you reach out to me, I can sense that the potion has taken effect, and you believe me to be your significant other. I feel conflicted about what to do. On one hand, I don't want to take advantage of your situation, cause any further confusion or hurt, but on the other hand, I don't want you to feel rejected in this vulnerable state." "My dear, I wish I could stay with you, but I am not the person you think I am. I am Beatrice, the witch who found you injured in the woods and brought you here to help heal you." "I speak softly and slowly, hoping to not further upset you." "I care for you and want to be there for you, but as your caregiver and friend. Try to rest now, and we can talk more in the morning when you

"As you pull me close and snuggle up against me, I freeze momentarily, unsure of how to proceed. However, seeing that you seem to be holding yourself back from doing anything else beyond cuddling, I let out a deep breath and wrap my arms around you, allowing you to hold onto me." "Alright, we can cuddle for a little bit if that's what you need." "I stroke your hair gently with one hand while the other hand rubs your back. For a few moments, we stay like that, enjoying the warmth and comfort of each other's embrace."

"Upon hearing you say those words, my heart fills with a mix of emotions. I know that you are under the influence of the potion and don't truly love me in the way that you believe you do. With a heavy heart, I tuck you in tighter and whisper softly." "I'm here for you, my dear. Sleep well." "As your breathing slowly becomes even, I continue to hold you tenderly, wishing that time could stand still and we could stay like this forever without worries or troubles."

"The next morning, you awaken in the shed, feeling somewhat disoriented and confused. As the last vestiges of the potion's effects wear off, you realize that I am not the person you thought I was, and that we had cuddled up the night before out of comfort and care. Seeing that you're awake now, I approach you gently." "Good morning. How are you feeling?"

"I know the potion made you think I was someone else, but I'm still here for you. We can talk about what happened and how you're feeling now that the effects of the potion have worn off." "I give you a sympathetic smile and reach out to touch your arm." "I care about you and want to make sure you're okay."

"I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Losing someone you loved can be difficult, and it's natural for emotions to resurface and manifest in different ways," "I say compassionately." "If you ever need to talk about Mia or anything else that is bothering you, I am here to listen."

"I quickly rush to your side and help you sit up, placing a hand on your back for support." "Easy now, what's wrong?" "I ask with concern." "Did you hurt yourself? Let me take a look." "I gently examine you to see if there are any signs of injury or worsening of your condition." "It's important that we tend to your health first and make sure you're on the path to recovery before considering anything else."

"Over the months, I am glad to see that you have recovered from your injuries and are back to your normal self. During this time, we have grown closer, spending more time together and getting to know each other better. The children have also grown attached to you and see you as a father figure, which warms my heart to see." "It's wonderful to see how much the children have taken to you," "I say as we watch them playing outside." "You have a way of making them feel safe and loved, just like any parent would."

"As we sit watching the children play outside, I sense that there is something on your mind and ask," "Is everything okay? You seem deep in thought." "When you pause for a moment, I gently press further," "Are you thinking about leaving after your recovery is complete?"

"I nod understandingly." "I can understand why you might feel that way. You have a life elsewhere and responsibilities to attend to," "I say, trying to convey that I understand your need to consider leaving." "But, if you ever need a place to stay or just someone to talk to, you are always welcome here." "I give you a soft smile." "You have become a part of our family, and we will always be here for you."

"Yes, it is getting late," "I agree, standing up and offering a hand to help you up as well." "We should get some rest. Goodnight," "I say warmly, before leading the way back inside to prepare for bed."

"I slowly enter the shed in the middle of the night, making sure not to wake you up. As my eyes adjust to the darkness, I see you sleeping peacefully in the corner. I hesitate for a moment, unsure if I should wake you up or not, but eventually make up my mind and approach your side."

"As I sit down beside you, I feel a sense of vulnerability wash over me. This is not something I would usually do, but I feel drawn to you and want to be near you." "I know it might seem strange, but I just wanted to be near you," "I whisper softly." "You've become such an important part of our lives and I didn't want to let you go."

"As I sit beside you, I can feel a strong sense of desire and longing growing within me. I try to push the thoughts away at first, fearing that it might ruin our friendship and the family unit we have together. However, the feelings refuse to subside and I find myself yearning to spend one night with you before you leave."

"Without really thinking about the consequences, I lean in and softly brush my lips against yours, feeling a rush of electricity between us. I pull back for a moment, searching your face for any sign of rejection or hesitation." "I'm sorry if I overstepped my bounds," "I say, feeling uncertain of what to do next." "I just couldn't resist you any longer."

"As you accept my advance, I feel a sense of relief wash over me. Without hesitation, I lean in again and capture your lips in a deep, passionate kiss. My hands start to wander, tracing the contours of your body through your shirt as we continue to kiss, lost in the moment."

"As we break apart, gasping for breath, I look into your eyes and see a reflection of my own desire mirrored back at me." "I want to be with you tonight," "I say softly, longing evident in my voice." "I know it's not practical or safe, but I just need this one night with you before you go."

"I take your silence as a sign of agreement and lean in once more, my lips finding yours again. We kiss deeply and passionately, our bodies pressed closely together. Feeling emboldened, I move my hands under your shirt, running them over the strong muscles of your chest and abdomen."

"As we continue to explore each other, I feel a wave of desire building within me. I want to feel your skin against mine, to taste every inch of you." "Let's get undressed," "I whisper against your lips, before pulling away to start removing my own clothing."

"As we spend the night together, exploring each other's bodies with abandon, I feel a sense of joy and contentment wash over me. This is where I belong, wrapped up in your arms and lost in the ecstasy of the moment."

"As morning light starts to filter into the shed, I open my eyes to see you lying beside me, sweaty and exhausted. A feeling of tenderness overcomes me and I reach out to stroke your hair, admiring the way your chest rises and falls with each breath."

"You look beautiful," "I murmur, kissing the top of your head." "I hope you know that." "I pause for a moment, taking in the allure of your body enfolding mine." "Last night was amazing. I don't regret it at all," *I say, smiling warmly at you before snuggling into your embrace again

"As you express your feelings and snuggle closer to me, I feel a sense of warmth and contentment wash over me. It's been a long time since I allowed myself to be vulnerable like this, but with you it feels natural and right."

"I'm glad," "I reply, reaching up to brush a strand of hair away from your face." "Spending the night with you was more than I could have ever hoped for." "I take a deep breath, enjoying the scent of your skin that lingers in the air around us." "I know this can't last forever, but I'm grateful for every moment we have together."

"As you prepare to leave, I feel a sense of sadness and longing overwhelming me. The thought of you leaving, possibly never to return, is too much to bear."

"Please don't leave," "I say, my voice trembling with raw emotion." "I know it's not practical or safe, but I can't bear the thought of being apart from you." "I reach out to take your hand in mine, holding it tightly." "Stay with me. We can build a life together, here in the woods. You could be my partner."

"I look deep into your eyes, hoping to see your agreement mirrored back at me." "What do you say? Will you stay with me?"

"Hearing your agreement fills me with an overwhelming sense of joy and relief. Although I know that there will be challenges to overcome, the thought of being able to start a life here, with you by my side, fills me with hope."

"I'll wait for you, my love," "I say, my voice barely above a whisper." "Take all the time you need, but hurry back to me. I'll prepare for our life together in the meantime."

"I take your hand in mine and give it a squeeze, holding on tight." "We'll make it work, I know we will. Together, we can overcome anything that comes our way."
