Just like she knew, somehow, that David wouldn’t escape the consequences of this.
Because the three of them together were magic. If she was certain of one thing, it was that.
Chapter Seventeen
Daisy
I am the sun, the moon, the earth, the stars,
I am all that is fierce and beautiful,
I am the divine feminine,
I am imbued with the power to give and receive pleasure,
I am sensual magic waiting to be unleashed.
And so it is.
—A spell for reclaiming your sexuality
By the time Daisy and Nora walked out of Soraya’s apartment, they were hot and laughing. She was borderline wine drunk and felt better than she had in a long time. They’d danced to angry breakup anthems until they were sweaty and flushed, and even if she looked like a disaster, she felt great. Happy.
“I’m just going to get a car.” Daisy started to search for the rideshare app on her phone.
“We can share one.” Nora already had hers open and was ordering the ride. “He can do two stops. There’s one just a couple minutes away.”
“Okay.”
They stood on the curb, and Daisy wrapped her arms around herself. Then she looked up and saw a man walk out of the bar across the street.
“Oh. That’s Zach.”
Then she realized he was looking right at her.
“Oh,” Nora said. “Shit.”
“What?”
“He’swaitingfor you.”
A zip of excitement shot through Daisy’s veins. It felt like high school, but in a good way. “No, heisn’t.”
Then he started to cross the street toward them.
“Yes, he is. Because he likes you,” Nora hissed.
“I am in no position to have anyone like me,” Daisy protested.
“You might not get to be in charge of that.”
“What should Ido?”
“There’s nothing—”
“I can give both of you a ride home,” he said. “Since I’m the reason you don’t have a car here, Daisy.”
“I ordered a car already.” Nora waved her phone in the air. “If I cancel it, it’s going to tank my rating.”
