The Forest of Whispered Desires
Read the story“Amor, veni ad me. Cor meum tibi do.” The candles around me wavered as I sat in the center, well hidden in a dark forest. I knew better than to do magic in my own home. I stuck out my tongue, licking the the corner of my mouth as I focused heavily on the latin words. “Amor…” Love, come to me. I give my heart unto thee. Those are the words I had a hard time pronouncing. I’m pretty sure I was saying the right words… I think. Being born from Spain and understanding a little Spanish, how hard could it be to understand Latin? “Amor, veni ad me. Cor… Cor—” I exhaled in frustration. “—meum tibi do!” I think that’ll do, I thought to myself.
