I picked up a pen and on a sheet of postal paper wrote: “Dear witch on the verge of the marriage deadline is looking for a fake husband. Urgent.” Then I thought it over and added: “Super-urgent. Right now—very-very-very.” I demanded a serious reply only.
Remembering the disgusting head of the Office, I added one more line: “No intimacy. Ever. Under any circumstances!”
Well, that’s it. Now—definitely… though no, not everything! In a rush and on edge, I forgot to write in the ad what’s most important—and now this stubborn, incredibly attractive, and completely shameless “detail” has set up shop in my apothecary. She’s already charmed my familiar, made the broom look at him with loving bars, and now she’s clearly moving in my direction. Not happening—no way. This trick won’t work on me. Not at all…
In the book we’ll find:
— 1 adorable little witch,
— a bold handsome man—also a dragon, also a groom, also a prince (but that’s a secret for now) — 1 piece,
— a red-haired smart familiar — 1 piece.
And also: a witch’s shop, a broom, an annoying admirer, city gossipers, and many other things…
