Avengers [Fluff/Smut/Angst]

Bewitched*[Strange]

Adra had her eyes closed meditating as Stephen joined beside her, they spent more time together in secret she has been studying other things in her free time. She found an odd book when Thor made a mess a few weeks back. It was a book of; enchantments, spells, and charms. Keeping this find for herself she couldn't wait to read more and try some of the magic. "Stop daydreaming." Strange warned her knowing her focus has been elsewhere lately. "Can I just take a break? Please?" Adra begged, she opened her eyes looking to him, a large frown spread across his face for a moment. "I suppose you've earned it, you get twenty minutes. I expect you to be back here." Strange humored her, though his words were strict.

Bouncing up she smiled, rushing to the library she seemed more eager than usual. Strange found this as a sign of abnormal behavior in his pupil. What could she possibly have on her mind, what brought her great thrill? Trying to focus on his meditation he let it go for now. The silence soothed him as the presence of another no longer lingered. "Finally silence and peace." Stephen groaned in his gruff voice.

Adra looked to the book reading on some of the spells, one spell made her curious. "True heart?" It seemed like a spell she could use on Loki, if he had a heart that was. She wondered if any of his sayings were true. If he loved her or lied to plot his false death the entire time. Following her fingers to the page, she saw hand movements and placements. She didn't read the end of the spell, the warnings were always at the end which seemed very dangerous. Her focus was on movements and properly doing the spell. Sliding her fingers along her right palm she lost track of time as her hand gestures picked up. Strange told her Twenty minutes and he meant it.

The room shifted around him he found himself walking along the library floor, he started watching her reading something, she made movements as sparks of magic came from her fingertips weakly. Strange was furious he warned her about the dangers of practicing unknown magic alone, her gaze was deep in the pages unable to see him marching to her with fury ready to scorn her for carelessness. "Adra. What are you doing?" He huffed out before a sudden shock hit him, he scared her which made her direct the spell at his chest to his heart. "NOTHING! SHIT!" Adra rushed to him watching as he wobbled at first. Hugging his side she frowned using her power to slide a chair behind him. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to cast it. I was only learning it!" Strange sat down holding up his finger to her for silence as he clenched his chest short of breath.

Biting her lower lip she lowered her head nervous. "What spell was that?" He asked. Before she could turn and grab the book he used magic to snatch it from the table. Reading the first few parts he skipped to the next page skimming the warnings and possible side effects to casting such a spell. Closing the book with a slam he started feeling out of it. "You were reckless!" Stephen shouted, his obvious anger built as he groaned clenching at his chest tighter. Leaning forward he fell onto the floor unsure how this would affect him. "I didn't expect to cast it! It was an accident! I just wanted to try and show you I could cast spells and have control! I found a book and I just got a little curious!" Adra kneeled to the floor rushing to grab him again.

After a moment of panic and pain Stephen felt fine. He felt better as it passed, maybe she didn't cast the spell properly. "It's alright, I think it failed." Huffing out he glanced up looking to the ceiling then her. He took in her deep blue eyes, they shimmered with new beauty to him. Sitting up further he got lost in her eyes as he trailed his eyes to her neck. He felt impulses filling his heart and mind, he wanted to brush her hair with his fingers. He wanted to kiss and bruise her lips with deep passion. "Strange? Why are you dazed? You're never dazed. What's happening?" Adra snapped her fingers, he snapped out of it. "Nothing, I think it's aftershock from the spell you failed so miserably at. Leave and start your chores." Strange forced out his usual behavior, currently his thoughts were a mess.
