do the spell on both of you at the same time.”
    “I suppose I’d better leave the room then,” Josephine said.
    “Now would be a good time.” Alice leveled an irritable scowl at her.
    Josephine and Mark retired to their bedroom with the spell Charlotte had given them. Alice didn’t notice Perry had remained perched on the living room curtain rod observing them with fascination. Josephine closed the door before she perched on the end of her king-size bed. Mark pulled out his blue, mini wand that contained the photographic memory enchantment.
    He sat down beside Josephine. “Are you all right?”
    “No, I’m not.” She heaved a sigh of frustration. “With how much my power has grown, I should be able to remove the mind control enchantment without anyone’s help.”
    “Mind control has never been an easy thing to vanquish.” Mark regarded her with a sympathetic gaze. “It almost always takes a specialist in mental healing magic.”
    “I know. I just feel like I should be able to do it.”
    “One person can’t solve every problem,” Mark said. “But if there was such a wizard, I know it would be you.”
    “You’re such a sweetheart.” Josephine scooted closer to give him a warm hug.
    She closed her eyes and savored the feeling of love and comfort that flowed between them. She wished there weren’t always problems looming over their heads. She wished she hadn’t married before meeting Mark. She knew she had too much baggage to ever marry again. All she could do was make the most of the limited time she had left with him. After all, white magic was a fleeting gift. A white magic practitioner would always burn out and lose their connection to light energy. It was inevitable that Mark would suffer the same fate as all those before him. And when it happened, he would begin to age again and grow old and eventually die while Josephine lived forever. Even as these dire musings swirled through her mind, Mark’s loving presence grew stronger within her until her body thrummed with joy. Mark pulled back and gasped with surprise.
    Josephine opened her eyes and saw the look of puzzlement and wonder on his face. She was about to ask why he was staring at her like that when she realized she was glowing. A sparkling white and gold luminescence radiated from her body. She held her hands up and examined them with astonishment. After several seconds, the light rapidly diminished and vanished.
    “What was that?” Josephine asked.
    Mark’s full lips curved in a pleasant smile. “I don’t know but I liked it.”
    “Me, too.” Josephine sobered as she remembered their current predicament. “I’m ready for that memorization spell.”
    “All right.” Mark aimed his wand at her and activated the enchantment.
    A shimmering gold stream of energy spilled from the tip of the wand and flowed into Josephine’s forehead for several seconds. Josephine knew that the spell worked because she could feel her mind expanding. She carefully read through the enchantments one page at a time. She was amazed by how clear the details of the spell shaped in her mind. It didn’t take her more than ten minutes to memorize the entire enchantment.
    “That spell is amazing. No wonder you’re so smart,” Josephine said.
    “Thank you.”
    “I can see why it takes years for people to practice it. Memorizing it is only the first step. It takes skill to create the energy construct and focus it properly. I can do this.” Josephine’s expression was elated. “If I’m tapped into a vortex, I can cast the spell on my own.”
    “But it says it takes a minimum of two wizards that are at least category five in strength,” Mark said.
    “That’s because one person normally can’t control all of the different components of the spell at the same time. Now that I’m connected to you and Helen, my power has reached the point where I can definitely handle it,” Josephine explained. “But I’m still going to error on the side of caution.
