Garth was running around the house, checking everything one last time. His wife had left that morning on another one of her business trips, leaving him alone for the next week. He had spent the entire day going through the house and removing all trace of her by taking down their pictures from the wall, removing her clothes from the closet and their shared dresser, and generally making the place look like he lived alone. It seemed an impossible task, but he had plenty of practice. He always managed to get everything back in place before Caroline returned, and she never suspected a thing. Now as long as Kate didn't open the closets, he would appear to be just the busy single man he claimed to be. He certainly planned to keep her too busy to go poking about after their date tonight. Smiling in anticipation, he went to change into his dress clothes.
As he dressed, he reflected that he wouldn't be able to keep Kate in the dark forever. They always started to catch on eventually, and then he had to dump them before they discovered the truth behind the charade. That was OK, though - he figured that he'd grow tired of her well before she really figured things out. For now, he was planning to enjoy himself.
Picking up the theater tickets he had for that evening, Garth went out to the car to go pick Kate up for their date. He greeted her at her door, looking appreciatively at her dress. It was red, and low-cut, showing off her ample breasts, and setting off her long red hair wonderfully. She pulled him to her for a kiss hello, holding the kiss for a couple of minutes before releasing him.
"I'm so glad to see you again, love! You know how much I miss you when you go away on these long business trips." She said, still holding him.
"I'm sorry dear, but they can't be avoided. You know that I come see you whenever I can. Anyway, we've got the next six days to spend together, so let's go have some fun." With that, he escorted her out to the waiting car.
Dinner was pretty good, and Garth did honestly enjoy Kate's company. The musical they attended afterwards was also very good, but Garth only paid minimal attention to the show, spending most of the evening thinking about what he and Kate were going to do afterwards. He didn't expect to have any trouble convincing her to spend the night with him - she seemed quite eager to show him just how much she'd missed him while he was "away". He figured that they would end up at his place as usual, since she really liked the large bed, which was why he'd spent so much time preparing the house earlier.
He wasn't disappointed; as soon as the show was over, she suggested that they go to his place and get reacquainted after their long separation. Of course he agreed, and they soon found themselves making good use of the large bed. He was pleasantly surprised at her energy that evening, and they made love quite vigorously for a long time. Finally they were both satiated, and the two of them drifted off to sleep in each other's arms, their mingled fluids pooling between them.
Garth awoke, feeling Kate shift beside him, and as he struggled to clear the fog of sleep from his brain, he heard her yelp in pain. He sat bolt upright at that, and cried out himself as he felt a lance of pain shoot through his belly button. Looking down, he saw a thick cord running from his navel to a small blob of tissue lying next to him. Another cord ran from the other side of the blob to the navel of the figure beside him. He looked at her in surprise, saying, "Kate, is that you? You look so young! What's going on here?"
"Garth? I don't know - what is that thing, and why do we both look sixteen?"
"I don't know any more than you do, but I think we should call a doctor. If we pick that... thing up and move carefully, we should be able to get to the kitchen phone." Garth reached for the blob, and lifted. To his astonishment, it refused to move from its position on the bed. "Umm... Could you give me a hand here, honey?" he asked.
Kate reached over as well, but despite their straining, they could not budge the object, and the cords connecting them to it didn't quite reach to the ends of the bed. They stubbornly spend an hour or so trying unsuccessfully to move it before they stopped to rest for a while. As they lay resting from their fruitless exertions, Garth looked over at Kate, and was surprised at what he saw. "Honey, is it just my imagination, or are we still getting younger?" He asked. She now looked to be about fourteen or so.
She stared at him in shock, then burst into tears. "What's happening to us?" she wailed, looking desperately at him for reassurance. He had none to give, and simply held her in an attempt to clam her down. They spent the rest of the day huddled together in the center of the bed, frightened as their bodies continued to change. By the time they drifted off to sleep that evening, they had both passed through puberty and now appeared as small children.
When Garth awoke, the world seemed much bigger - the bed was a vast plain in the world that was the bedroom. Next to him he could see a tiny infant that he realized must be Kate. Looking down at his own body, he saw that he too looked like a newborn babe and he realized the strange lump of tissue had to be a placenta, connecting to the two of them by their umbilical cords. He tried to speak, but his lungs refused to function, and he could see the fear on Kate's face as she discovered the same thing. The two of them crawled over to each other and clung desperately together as they awaited their next transformation .
After some time, they heard the door to the bedroom open, and Garth looked up as Caroline walked in. She smiled maliciously at the two of them, saying, "Don't worry, I'll be with the two of you in a moment - just let me take a shower first." With that, she disappeared into the bathroom and he heard the shower running.
Kate was looking at Garth with a puzzled expression on her face, but he was too busy worrying about Caroline's comments to notice. She seemed to have been expecting to find them like this, which implied that she was somehow behind what was happening. Garth had no idea how that could be - he would have sworn that she couldn't have found out, and the things happening to them seemed outright impossible!
Before Garth could finish his train of thought, Caroline emerged from the bathroom, wearing his bathrobe and with an irritated look on her face. "I see that you've been doing some redecorating here," she said as she tossed the robe aside. "Didn't you even tell your little friend that you were married?"
Garth felt Kate stiffen in shock, then she began to crawl away from him as Caroline climbed naked into the bed. He felt a light touch brush against his mind and heard her say, "No, I see that you didn't." She scowled, "I knew that you were a cad, but I still expected better of you than that!" He saw her turn to face Kate, saying, "I suppose that I'd better introduce myself. I'm Caroline, and I'm Garth's wife. I'm also a witch, and I'm the one who cast the spell on the two of you. I should apologize; if I had known that you were just another one of his victims, I wouldn't included you in the spell. I'm afraid that I can't stop it at this point, but I promise that I'll make this as easy as possible for you."
Garth saw Caroline reach down and pick up the placenta from where it lay on the bed. Holding it, she spread her legs, then reached the hand holding the placenta down between them. Parting her vaginal lips with the other hand, she slipped the placenta inside. She withdrew her empty hand, and Garth could see the lump of the placenta move deeper into her body, then felt a slight tremor run through his body as it attached to Caroline's womb. Frightened, he backed away from her until the umbilical cord pulled taut, preventing him from going any farther.
Caroline looked at him with a malicious smile, then said "Don't worry, I'll be with you in just a little bit." She then turned and scooped Kate up in her arms. Kate squirmed around, trying to free herself as her tiny mouth to was guided to Caroline's right nipple. "Drink up, it will make this a lot easier for both of us." Caroline said as she held Kate against her breast until she finally began to drink. Garth watched as Kate suckled from his wife's breast, reluctantly at first but becoming increasingly enthusiastic as she continued until Caroline's milk was all gone.
"There, doesn't that feel much better?" Caroline asked, gently rocking Kate in her arms. To Garth's surprise, Kate seemed very calm in his wife's arms, no longer afraid or trying to escape. She didn't even struggle when she was placed between Caroline's legs. He watched, mesmerized as Caroline pulled her feet in against her butt, then lowered Kate's head to her waiting opening. Wiggling Kate's head back and forth, Caroline slowly worked it inside her birth canal, then laid back as her internal muscles took hold. Garth watched, still surprised at Kate's lack of struggles as she lay resting against his wife's feet. She seemed relaxed, almost asleep as her head slipped completely into Caroline's body. Slowly, Caroline's contractions pulled Kate's unresisting body inward as Caroline sweated, breathing heavily with the effort. Her face held a broad smile as Kate slowly slipped into her birth canal. Finally, Garth watched as his wife's vaginal lips closed over his lover's feet, and the bulge of her body slowly crept up his wife's belly, finally coming to rest in the space beneath her navel. The ecstatic look on Caroline's face as she finished pulling Kate into her new home made Garth shiver.
Caroline lay unmoving for at least a half an hour after Kate had come to rest inside her, her eyes closed and a very pleased expression on her face. Garth's anxiety increased, and he didn't dare move for fear that it would break her reverie and hasten his turn to be taken within her. Eventually she opened her eyes, looking at him as she spoke. "Well, at least you have good taste in lovers, husband." Caroline managed to put a great deal of contempt in the last word as she continued. "Kate really is a very interesting woman - I'd have been very pleased to meet her under other circumstances. We had a long talk together - she is very upset with the way you deceived her, although she's a little more merciful than I am. I had planned to simply take both of you inside of me and return you to the egg and sperm that you came from. Since Kate was your victim, I'm not going to do that to her - in fact, she's going to become my heir. At her request, you're getting another chance as well, though I don't think you'll like it much. She wants a twin sister, and you're going to be it." Smiling at Garth's look of horror, Caroline continued, "You'll get a chance to try again as my daughter - maybe you won't be such a jerk this time around."
As she reached for him, Garth tried to crawl away, but the umbilical cord wasn't long enough, and Caroline simple leaned forward ad grabbed him. He was expecting her to raise him to her breasts, like she had done to Kate. Instead, she rested him against her feet, spreading her legs once more. At his look of surprise, she chuckled evilly, saying, "No milk for you, husband - I want you to be fully awake for this."
As she slid him towards her hungry opening, he wriggled frantically, trying to break her strong grip. All his struggles proved quite futile, and soon he felt his feet slip into her body as she slid him down the platform formed by her feet. She smiled at him as she pushed him into her, and he struggled even harder when he felt her inner muscles grab his hips and she stopped pushing, removing her hands. Using only her vaginal muscles, she continued to pull him into her, though he could feel his struggles slow his progress into her.
"Mmmmmm, yes, try to escape - it feels good. You can't get away, you know. You're already hooked and all that's left is to reel you in." She said, grinning down at him where he had braced his arms against her crotch, trying to push himself free of her grip. "I want you to know just how powerless you are to stop me, it'll help pay back for all the anguish I've suffered over you." She relaxed slightly, and he actually managed to work himself free a little ways. Then, she pulled, and his body moved deeper inside, his tiny arms bending as she overpowered him. "I did love you once, before I learned how completely you betrayed me. Kate was what, your fifth? Sixth? My scrying spells couldn't tell me exactly how many times before you've broken our vows, but I got the general picture." She relaxed again, and knowing that she was toying with him, Garth tried again to escape. He'd nearly managed to slide his navel out when she pulled again, and his arms collapsed their resistance as he sank into her up to his armpits. "You never really cared about any of us, did you? You just took what you wanted from any woman you came across and left it at that." Another pull, and his arms folded up beside his head as his chin rested against her moist opening. "Now I know why you always said that we weren't ready for children - it would cramp your style. Well, now you're finally going to give me the daughter I've wanted. The next time I see you again, our relationship should be much improved. Bye now!"
Garth felt her pull him again, and her body slid up to cover his nose, then one more contraction and darkness covered him. He felt himself pulled deeper, his hands brushing against her vaginal lips before they followed the rest of him into her moist passage. He experienced a crushing pain as he was mercilessly squeezed past her hips, then finally emerged into her womb and was welcomed by a warm fluid that surrounded his tiny body. He felt his body continue to soften and change inside her, and as he floated there, he felt Kate's hand grab hold of him. Her touch seemed strange, sending a tingling through his arm where her hand made contact, and as she pushed him against the wall of Caroline's womb, he felt himself change even more. Something seemed to flow into his body from both Kate and Caroline where they touched his skin, and he felt it spread through him, rewriting his DNA. He felt Caroline and Kate's presences in his mind, covering him, and he struggled against them briefly before they squeezed tightly, dissolving his consciousness into their embrace.
Caroline lay back, thanking Kate for her help in completing Garth's transformation - the mix of their genes would make a very good template for the new child, much better than the one it replaced. She then soothed Kate to sleep as she began the far more difficult task of transforming her without erasing her personality. Adopting an heir was a very rare occurrence, only done when two women's souls resonated particularly well. Even then, there were only a handful of cases where the adoptee had been more than a few years old, since it was so difficult to preserve the subject's original mind. When successful, the sorceress that resulted was unusually powerful, however - one of Caroline's ancestresses had been the result of such an adoption. So, Caroline was understandably pleased with herself when she tied that last thread of the spell and felt her new daughter's mind fully intact.
She patted the bulge of her pregnancy, smiling. It wasn't the revenge she had envisioned when she cast the spell, but fate had given her an incredible gift - she had gained an heir, and even been able to recycle Garth's soul, though nothing else of him had been worth saving. She smiled, feeling her new daughters developing inside of her. They would certainly be an interesting set of twins - physically identical, but worlds apart mentally. One would have an adult mind and likely be the most powerful magic-user in a generation, while the other would be a perfectly normal baby girl. Caroline smiled, looking forward to the challenge of raising her new family. She was certainly pleased with the way things had turned out.
