And dammit her words made my heart pitter-patter and a smile lift on my face.
Chapter Eighteen
Orgasms have been proven to help get good grades. Let’s ace some classes
Aweek flew by, and I still had a chunk of cotton candy-colored andscentedpink hair. Piper laughed for five minutes when I showed her the pictures of my potion’s mishap. Edith changed her little body to the same color in solidarity, which I found adorable.
Every day in class we practiced using our magic intentionally.
Besides the liquid language potions that gave the consumer the ability to speak in any language for ten minutes, my two favorite skills were focusing on future colors in Divination and learning how to light the end of our wands like a flashlight.
My future visions mostly featured the color green. Green sweaters, green present wrappings with little white stars, and more green, green, green.
I wasn’t sure what all the green meant, and I couldn’t zoom out to see the context. However, I kept a watchful eye out for those visions each day.
Ms. Pauline, Rylan’s assistant, made sure to check in each morning on his behalf to make sure I was all right after the accident, which I found sweet.
When I asked him about it, he tilted his head and denied orchestrating that.
“She must like you if she’s making a public appearance to check in. She is busy managing my company while I go to classes and doesn’t usually come out of her office in the castle.” He shrugged and that was that.
All in all, everything had mellowed out since I woke up to Rylan watching over me in the hospital wing. Which is why I swallowed my tea down the wrong hole when my roommate surprised me at dinner.
“I think I’m going to sleep with someone tonight,” she announced between bites.
I nearly died coughing.
She finished her sandwich and popped a mint into her mouth. “You don’t mind hanging out somewhere else for a bit tonight, do you? Shouldn’t be a long sex session.”
“Uh. Yeah. Have fun.” I gasped and soothed the ache in my throat with more tea. This time I didn’t choke. “I was planning to go down the lake to read… so perfect timing.”
Remy glanced around the dining hall then gave me a soft smile. “Thanks. If you need the room to take care of yourself sometime, just let me know. Orgasms help the brain and body function optimally.”
Without thinking, I grabbed a bread stick and nibbled while speaking. “Right. Orgasms lead to As in class.”
Of course, my brain heard the word orgasm, and now all I thought was orgasm, orgasm, orgasm! It had been a while since someone else gave me one. I had kept myself so busy momming with Piper over the years that a few adventures with my purple vibrator were all I made time for.
Remy nodded then looked around the room once more. “They do. It’s been proven in a few studies.”
“Do you have a person in mind?”
Admittedly, I was curious.
“I’m assessing my choices now,” she said.
I joined her in surveying the prospects.
“Do you have preferences?”
“If you’re asking if I’m into males or females, the answer is yes.” She nodded once, her eyes narrowing on someone behind me.
“Okay, I’ve found tonight’s homework. Give me two hours in the room.” She stood, and her dirty plate vanished. They had added that little spell two days ago, and I needed to ask the staff for the name for when I went home.
As Remy left, I wondered who she would pick and what would she do once she stood before them.
Would she just walk up to some person and say, “You, me, sex, now?” And would they just agree, or would there be talking and flirting beforehand?
Turns out Remy had confidence and knew what she wanted. She marched up to a tall man with thick muscles reading silently at his table. He looked like a bouncer with a buzz cut and all black attire.
