I CLUTCH MY HANDS TO my ears trying to drown out the sound of the horrible bitch’s voice—er witch’s. I look over at my mate to find her doing the same, pain clear on her face.
“Finn!” I yell out, trying to get his attention. “Her ears are too sensitive for this. Get her something!” He nods to me before pushing through the crowd to get to the bar where we keep some ear plugs.
He rushes back over here using his vampire speed the whole time. I look around at the humans that are here tonight and thank the fates that they all seem too drunk to really understand what is going on. Finn hands us all ear plugs and we are finally able to drown out the sound of the witch’s voice.
“Who the fuck is Barista McGravity?” Rose yells, looking over at Amber and Julian. “Does she work for you guys? I’ve never seen her.”
“She’s a barista?” Sapphire’s human mate, Bob, asks.
“Not now Bob!” Barista McGravity yells, causing Sapphire to scowl at her.
“Whoa whoa whoa! No one talks to my Bob like that!” Sapphire screams at the woman.
“Except you.” Bob says with a smile, putting his arm around her.
“Where the fuck is Randal?” I ask, looking around for our shifter DJ. I look up towards the DJ booth where the loud witch stands and notice a figure standing near her. Randall! He stares into the crowd with unseeing eyes, his hands on the DJ booth. His face is stoic as if he isn’t really there. “Randal?” I yell as I wave my arms trying to get his attention.
“Your Randal is your’s no longer!” Bari-The witch- yells loudly using her megaphone voice. “He will be the first in my harem!”
Her what?
Randall looks over the crowd with the same bored face. “Cause my friends don’t dance and if you don't dance. Well you’re no friends of mine.” He intones in a monotone voice.
The witch stands on the booth, her voice booming through the room once again. “My name is Aquamarine and you will give me my harem. Until then, DANCE!”
She looks over at Randal and nods. He moves his hands robotically to the DJ booth and pushes a button. Safety Dance returns to the speakers and the crowd goes wild, starting the party again.
Sapphire immediately begins doing the robot again to the beat of the song. “McCavity may be evil but she sure knows a good song!”
I look over our group and sigh. How the fuck are five vampires, four shifters, a chameleon, a wonky witch, and a human going to stop this woman? And where the hell is Reggie?
