Daisy didn't know what to expect on his planet, but she quickly packed a bag, throwing in her clothes, toiletries and a book to occupy her while she was traveling.

She glanced at the hand held mirror that her grandmother had told her would reflect her mate. She didn't really believe that a mirror could answer her dilemma, but it had been passed down for generations from one woman to the next and even a few men. Sure, she was a witch, but the thought of a mirror showing her the man to claim her heart was ludicrous. It was crazy.

She picked up the phone and called her sister Zinnia.

"Hello?"

Music blasted in the background. "What are you doing?"

"Dancing," she said breathlessly. "It's my latest routine to calm my anger and not send a spell of bad luck to some deserving person."

"Is it working," Daisy asked.

"No," she said out of breath as she turned off the music. "What's up? Are you calling about the birthday celebration Grandmother Astor is planning for you?"

Daisy stopped. Her grandmother was planning a birthday celebration? Of course, to celebrate her mating ritual. "No. In fact, I haven't found a mate." Her voice choked. "I don't think the mirror is going to work for me. I haven't found anyone."

Orion's image came to mind and she stopped. That was twice she had thought of him today, but he was an alien. A handsome man whose lips had set fires, no man had ever stoked before.

"Surely there is someone," her sister said. "Have you met any men at all?"

"There's one, but he's not from Magic," she said her hands trembling.

Laughter came over the phone as her sister cackled loudly. "Honey, the men in that town are all kinds of weird. I doubt any girl finds the man of her dreams there."

"You're right. But the man I met is from out of town. Way out of town, like another planet."

"Oh," Zinnia said. "Well have you checked the mirror?"

What if Orion was her mate, or even worse, what if he wasn't? She liked the man. He was gentle and kind. He stood up to her and wasn't afraid. But was she in love with him?

"No," she said suddenly afraid. "I've checked it at least twenty other times and it showed me nothing."

"You have to check the mirror."

Daisy swallowed picking up the mirror and staring into it. "I never considered him until now. Well, he's just not what I expected."

"Do you like him?"

"Yes," she said, knowing that she did. "But I'm also afraid."

"Of what?"

"What if he is the right one and he doesn't want me or what if he's not my mate? What do I do then?"

How could she explain to her sister that it had taken her until just before this phone call to start questioning that Orion could be the man she was to choose? She never considered him until an hour ago.

"You get on your broom and fly out to see me. We'll have some drinks and bash men.
