Chapter 8

Piper surveyed the disaster area that was their kitchen. It looked like a tornado had rolled through it. Skylar was escorting a distraught Millie out and Cassie was whining about not being able to use her magic to clean up the mess. It served her right. This was her idea after all.

“Quit whining, Cass. We are not taking any unnecessary chances so close to the competition. If Baba Yaga suspects we are abusing our powers, she will throw our asses into the pokey. Any hopes or dreams of winning The Great Wiccan Cake Off will go up in smoke.”

Cassie continued to pout as she scraped fondant off the walls. “Why do you always have to be the sensible one? One day you’re going to let your hair down and live a little.”

Skylar joined them in the kitchen. Her arm was wrapped in an ace bandage and safely secured in a hot pink sling that matched her sneakers. She returned to her spot at the kitchen nook and continued sipping her iced coffee.

“Why doesn’t she have to help?” Cassie complained. “It was her idea too.”

Skylar waved with her good arm and smirked at her cousin. “Hello, I have a broken arm over here. Woman impaired.”

Piper glared at her cousins. Thank the Goddess, there was only one interviewee left today. She needed a nap when this little experiment was over. They would never find someone to replace Skylar. Her hopes were dwindling with every piece of cake she scraped off the floor. When the third trash bag was filled to capacity, she tied it up and handed them to Cassie. If looks could kill, she would have been dead. Her fun-loving cousin had reached her limit today. Welcome to the club.

“Don’t look at me like that Cassandra. Skylar is incapacitated, so that leaves you and me to clean this up. Next time, think before you decide to blow up your opponent’s cake.”

Cassie stopped cleaning, placed her hands on her hips and defiantly stared her cousin down. “It’s not my fault things got out of hand. Millie was rude, crude and unprofessional. Someone needed to take her down a peg and I was just the witch to do it. She’ll think twice about flaunting her baking skills in front of people. We all know I had to beat that buffy down to save face.”

Skylar burst out laughing. “She has a point Piper.”

Piper let out a heavy sigh in defeat. In her heart of hearts, she knew her cousins were right about Millicent. “Maybe, but we have bigger problems than Millie and cleaning up this mess.”

The silence in the kitchen was deafening. Piper knew she had ruined the mood, but between the competition and Liam’s kiss, her mind was in overdrive. She needed to tell her cousins the truth and seek their advice. She sure as hell didn’t know what to do. Her instincts were screaming at her to run, but that would make her no better than her mother. She was a fighter.
