Stefan's Run-in With a Black Cat and a Feisty Witch

by Anna Patterson

Stefan was in rebellion. He knew it. He felt stifled by his life, trapped by his family’s stifling hold on him all of these years. Frankly, he wanted to escape, but now, he wasn't sure what to do. So he did nothing. In times of crisis, he had learned patience, so he waited to make up his own mind what he wanted to do next.
Meanwhile, he was distracted and went on the detour of his life. It really did bring home to him why he hates cats and witches. For you see, there was this one witch who was just demanding his attention and this was getting on his last nerve! Screaming cats and screaming witches were at the top of his hate list and this witch and her cat were just screaming their lungs out. So he had to do something. He really didn't mean to kiss her. That was the really freaky part of it.
