I blink in confusion before I remember that I’m wearing the broomstick tank.
“Makes me wonder how well you could drivemystick. . .”
I literally feel my mouth gape open at this hot asshole’s audacity. The dick gives me a slow once over with one brow quirked.
“Eh, I have my doubts,” he concludes.
At first, his words don’t even register, and then I see red.
Where does this fucker get the nerve?!
That’s it—it’s on!
“Dude, I don’t know who you think you are, but stay in your own lane. Because if you piss me off enough, I’ll get out of mine and run you the fuck over!” I snarl.
But instead of showing fear or retaliating with more anger, the asshat laughs.
“You kiss all your dates with that mouth?” He smirks.
“What dates?” I ask like an imbecile.
“Exactly,” he drawls smugly.
Son of a witch.
I might stab this fucker with one of the store’s jeweled athames. Assholes like him should be thankful that I can’t do magic.
I know I’m a total bitch, but I don’t needthis guyreminding me. Besides, I’m not a ‘high road’ driver; I’m going to treat you like you treat me. Gram-Gram always says you catch more flies with honey but, trust me, you catch just as many with vinegar. So, this guy can kiss my robed ass. I doubt once he opens his mouth, he has ladies tripping over themselves to service him.
I push past him.
“Actually, I’m on a date now,” I fib.
The bastard smiles like he knows I’m lying.
“Really? Where is this mystery man?”
I curl my lip up at his superior tone. Just in time, Preston comes back into the store.
“Right there!” I point triumphantly. “There’s my date!”
Preston joins us, eyeing my get-up.
“I like the shirt,” he compliments and, because he’s a gentleman, he doesn’t offer for me to ride his stick like the dick standing next to him.
Will today’s disappointments never end?
“Oh, I see you’ve met Bellamy—he’s another contestant on the show.”
“Is Bellamy his real name?” I snark and Preston chuckles.
“Yes.”
“Oh. He gets to keep his name, but I don’t?”
Preston gives my shoulder a squeeze.
“TV is harder on women than men—sorry. Let me introduce you two. Evanora Porter, this is Bellamy Putnam. Bellamy, this sweet little witch is Evanora.”
