Page 98 of Her Daddies' Everything

“Your arch-enemies?” he repeated, sounding surprised. “Do you have a lot of them?”

“Not many. There’s Bella from high school. She was so mean to me. I’ve created the Bella spell for her. Then there’s . . . some others.”

Like Lauren.

Or Amaya. Who Jenner was out on a date with tonight. Sure, they were only dating because she’d bought him for the night.

But Immy still hated it.

She couldn’t help but feel like something more was going to develop. Jenner would see how gorgeous Amaya was. How talented. How good it would be to date her for his career.

Amaya probably never woke up all sleepy and zombie-like and needed people to feed her and dress her.

She probably didn’t forget her medication and end up ill and worrying everybody who cared about her.

Amaya probably didn’t have a whole ton of baggage from her childhood that she couldn’t seem to let go.

“Damn woman is perfect.”

“Did you just swear?” Tobias asked. “And who is the damn woman?”

“I didn’t swear!” she cried.

“Cherry, you said ‘damn.’ Don’t lie.”

“So did you. You said it twice!”

“Was just repeating what you said,” he told her. “That’s a dollar.”

“Drat,” she grumbled.

“Who is the woman you’re talking about? The one that Jenner is out with tonight? Do you not like her?”

Urgh. How did he guess?

“I don’t really know her. But she seemed nice enough. I’m just . . . being silly.”

“Nothing silly if they’re your feelings.”

She didn’t really think that was true.

“You care about him.”

“Of course,” she replied. “He’s like a brother to me. I don’t want to see him taken advantage of.”

“Sampson also has a date coming up with the woman who bought him, right? Guess you’ll be doing a spell on her too.”

“I guess so.”

“Unless you’re upset because you wish you were on the date with Jenner.”

Immy turned to glare at him. “When did you become so chatty?”

“I talk when I have something to say.”

She grumbled under her breath. “I think I liked it better when you were invisible and silent.”

“Can go back to that.” He stepped out of the room and instantly, she started kicking herself.
