Chapter 3

David

Over the next several weeks I ended up in my bed or some guy’s bed. Not all of the guys were all that memorable in bed. But the great ones I’d make sure to hook up with more than once. And yes that did include my Dad. I even got the guy from the gym. But when he tried to pay me afterwards I told him goodbye and that I was canceling my gym membership.

I found myself in an Uber and thanked the heavens that the Driver was a woman. When she asked me where I wanted to go I just gave her an address without really thinking of what I was saying. I was surprised to find myself outside of Danielle’s favorite bookstore. I just walked in with no real plan.

I have no idea how long I’d been there when I saw a familiar face, “Lyla, is that you?”

She looked confused, “Do I know you?”

“It’s me, David,” I said automatically.

Lyla grinned like the Cheshire Cat then started to walk around me like she was evaluating me, “So this is what you look like now? Not exactly what I was expecting. What are you? Hawaiian? You’re taller, way cute, you have the sweetest voice, and your breasts are way bigger.” She clicked her tongue, “My sister Danielle is much better looking.”

I couldn’t move the entire time Lyla was talking and finally, I felt the hold loosen up, “Expected? You knew this had happened to me?”

Lyla laughed, “Knew, heck I helped put this curse on you.”

“But why?” I asked.

She thought for a moment then Lyla said, “It’s not like you’ll remember this so I might as well tell you now. We found out that not only were you going to break up with my Sister but you had cheated on her with some bimbo slut.”

“What? I’d never cheat on Danielle?” I cried out.

Lyla angrily ordered, “Don’t lie to me. We could always make this curse worse than it already is for you. Besides I can tell you’ve had a lot of sex while in this form. Maybe someone slipped in a little something extra into the spell.”

I struggled to speak, “I’m not lying. I love Danielle. I was planning on proposing to her on this trip. But she never showed.”

Lyla looked taken aback. Then she looked me directly in the eyes and looked stunned, “But that’s impossible. She got a video of you with another woman. Pounding her like crazy.”

“I’ve only ever been with one woman other than Danielle. And that was way before we got together. I swear it’s true,” I was now crying like a baby.

Lyla looked into my eyes once again and with a wavering voice, “Oh, God, what have we done? I am so sorry.”

“What’s going to happen to me? What did you do?” I asked.

Lyla had to catch her breath, “I’m not sure what’s going to happen to you. We only cast a spell to turn you into a woman and have you sleep with a couple of guys. We wanted you to know what it was like to be a woman before turning back into a guy after two months. But as my sister was casting the spell someone was interfering with a different kind of magic. There’s no telling what the result will be. Or how long you’ll be like this.”

Lyla put her hands to my head and chanted some words that I couldn’t understand. When she pulled away she was sweating and panting heavily.

“What was that?” I asked.

“I tried to undo the spell. Oh, God, it didn’t work,” Lyla informed me. “Maybe this is why Danielle is still in a coma.”

I was finally able to fully move on my own. Lyla looked like she was about to collapse. I grabbed hold of her and asked, “If you could see into my mind why didn’t Danielle do that before you all did this to me?”

Softly she replied, “She doesn’t have that ability. As the oldest, that gift goes to me. The only way she could do that is if she gained a vast amount of power or if I died. With how I feel now that might be soon.”

Lyla stood up and pushed me away.

Then I heard the doorman say, “Are you okay Danni?”

I turned around and saw one of my lovers, “I, yeah, I think so. I just got lost in thought and can’t remember what I was about to do. Oh well, I’ve just been really busy lately. Something was bound to be forgotten. You look happy. What’s going on in your life?”

“Besides knowing you’re okay, I have plenty of things to be happy about. My wife has taken me back. I’m finally at home. I’m not sleeping in the same bed with her yet but still, this is a huge step. I have you to thank for this,” he told me.

“Me? How so?” I asked.

“My time with you helped to boost my confidence. I went to talk to my wife and things just went better than I had dreamed. Thank you,” he hugged me.

“I’m so happy for you. Cherish every moment you have with your loved ones. You don’t want to neglect them until it is too late,” I told him.

“You don’t have to tell me twice, Miss Willis. Now have a good day,” Murphy said looking as happy as happy could be.

As we parted ways I couldn’t help but feel happy for him too. I walked for a long time after that and I got distracted often, there were so many attractive men around. I was wondering what I was going to do next. I couldn’t just continue on having sex with every guy that showed interest in me. What if they were carrying some kind of disease?

I was shocked out of my thoughts when my phone rang, “Hello, Danni speaking.”

On the other end was a worried voice, “Danni? Oh, thank heavens. Have you seen Danielle? She’s missing.”

“What? When did this happen? I thought she was in a coma,” I said.

Martha was hyperventilating so Lyla took over, “She woke up early this morning. Something was wrong with her. She was in pain. Her skin looked like it was crawling all over her body. My Mom and I were working on a magic brew to help her when we heard her car take off. Oh God, I think she was transforming into something or someone else. She could be anyone and anywhere by now. Our location spells aren’t working. We need your help, please.”

“I’ll do anything in my power to help you. What can I do?” I told Lyla.

Lyla gave me some locations on where Dannielle could be. They were places that Danielle loved going to when she was younger and traveled with her Dad.
