“Allie, would you clean the counter while I fill this gentleman’s order?”

Smiling at Hilly, Allie snatched the towel from her shoulder and mopped the crumbs off the counter and into the garbage, then stuck her tongue out at her sister’s back.

Nag, nag, nag. Allie, take your potion. Allie, clean the floors. Allie, don’t you dare step out of this bakery. If she heard Hilly bark one more order at her, she’d bop her sister over the head with a cake pan.

For the past two days, the only thing she’d done was work in the bakery. Neither Meg nor Hilly would let her out of their sight after the incident at the club. And, although a part of her agreed with them, the other side, the part of her that longed to see Tom again, couldn’t stop thinking of ways to slip away. Not that it would do her any good. They’d already caught her twice and had threatened to lock her in her room if she tried to sneak out again.

Allie leaned against the counter and stared out the front window. What would she do if she could get away? Find Tom and risk hurting him? Risk maybe even draining him? She wiped a tear from her eye. Her sisters were right, of course, to keep her from him. But she couldn’t help it. She had to see him again. Next time, however, would be different. Next time, they’d keep their hands—not to mention every other body part—off each other. At least until she could find out how to have sex without draining a man’s energy. She knew there was a way. After all, how else could her mother have been with her father?

Meg slipped beside her and wrapped an arm around her waist. “You’re thinking about Tom again, aren’t you?”

“Is it that obvious?”

“Yeah, pretty much. That dreamy face and the way you keep looking outside as though you expect him to show up at any moment kind of gives a big old clue.” Meg leaned her head on Allie’s shoulder. “I know it’s hard, sis.”

Allie wrenched away. “Do you? How can you possibly know? You get to have sex anytime you want. With any man you want. And if you ever found someone you wanted to stay with, to be with forever, you wouldn’t have anything keeping you from making that happen.”

“Except maybe the little fact that I’m a witch. Somehow I think more than a few guys would find that a hard pill to swallow. Why do you think I never get emotionally involved?”

She reached out for Meg’s hand. “Damn. I’m sorry. I know it’s rough for you, too. It’s just that—”

“It’s just that you think Tom is special, right? That he’s the one?” Meg added air quotes to the words the one.

The image of Tom standing outside his club, a bewildered expression on his face, hit Allie hard, turning the emptiness in her stomach into a knot of anguish. “I don’t think so. I know so.”

“And you’d know this from your vast experience?” Meg chuckled, then quieted at Allie’s hurt look.
