Chapter Ten
A red-faced Mandy stepped away from my desk. âI loved your day planner, and I hoped you wouldnât mind if I checked it out to see how you had it set up.â
âI do mind.â Heat burned in my fingers as my power revved up. I twitched my index finger, and the office door slammed against the wall with a loud bang.
Mandy placed her hand on her chest. âOh my. I do believe there are ghosts in this office.â
âYour mother is waiting for you downstairs.âI pointed at the door. âTime for you to leave before I send the ghosts after you.â
âI donât believe in ghosts.â Mandy grabbed her designer bag. I followed her to the door as heat pooled in my palms. She placed her hand on the knob, and then looked over her shoulder. "You should know Jason is mine, and he will never leave me."
Itâd been a bad morning, and I couldn't remain silent. "Jason deserves someone who can love him for himself, and not someone who will manipulate and use him.â
Mandy huffed, pivoted, and then left, slamming the door behind her.
I glanced down at the Book of Shadows and opened it to todayâs date. The elegant script formed. Words spoken in anger can harm and open a pathway to the darkness. Youâre learning.
âDid Mandy see anything?â I asked.
No. That one has zero magical skills.
Apparently, not learning enough that youâll help me with the sigils. George, or the Blood Collector.â The words faded and then the pages became blank.
I went to my desk, sat down, and leaned my head into my hands. What a morning! First Dadâs shenanigans about us wanting to financially contribute to his house. Now, Mandy declaring Jason belonged to her. A scolding from Nanaâs Book of Shadows. What else could happen? Donât even put that in question form because the Universe would be like, well, letâs see.
Pity time over. I lifted my face and stared at my computer monitor. I needed to write blog, but instead I walked over to the windows and watched as Jason opened the passenger side door of the Lexus. Mandy kissed him, and then slipped inside the car.
Now, that Mandy was on her way home, this would be a great time to head to Thunder Mountain. I snatched up my Book of Shadows, and my keys and shoved them into my messenger bag. I would have to search for a protection spell or something for my personal belongings if Mandy would be hanging around the office.
Downstairs, Jason waved at me. âCome on, I have a break. Letâs head over to the park and talk to Teresa Duncan. Iâd like to meet Kylantha.â
In Jasonâs van, I hugged my messenger bag against my chest. Fury at having someone snoop through my belongings still smoldered within me.
If I were a dragon, Iâd flamed Mandyâs hair. No. Canât do that. The Book of Shadows could be linked to my thoughts. If I were a dragon, Iâd flame the Blood Collector. Yeah. You know Iâd never seen a dragon in a horror movie.
