I took a pen and wrote on a sheet of stationery:
“Dear witch, on the verge of marriageable age, urgently looking for a husband—just for fun.”
I thought for a moment and added: “Urgently. No, even more urgently. Write only to those who are serious!”
Recalling the disgusting chapter of the Office, I added another line: “No intimacy offered. In general. No way.”
Seems like everything.
Though no—not everything! In my nerves, I managed to forget the most important detail in the ad, and now this stubborn, beautiful, and utterly shameless “detail” has settled right in my shop. It already managed to charm my familiar, make the broom look at him with love—those little twiggy beams—and now it’s coming for me. Well, no—this trick won’t work on me. For sure, for sure it won’t.
In the book, you’ll find:
A charming little witch — 1 pc.
A bold handsome man. Also a dragon, also a groom, also a prince (but that’s a secret for now!) — 1 pc.
A redheaded clever familiar — 1 pc.
And also: a witch’s shop, a broom, an annoying admirer, town gossipers, and many others…
