you’re a wolf. After my dream last night and what the voice in my head said about Chris, I’m just scared that I will lose my—”
     
    A big SUV pulled into the drive, breaking her train of thought. She turned toward the drive. She counted the women getting out of the car, each carrying several sacks of groceries —Sam, Margaret, Kate, Tess, Hallie, and Nicole. All of them... She’d forgotten they said they were making a food run while Heath dropped Siobhan at the airport. Last of all, Chase slipped out of the driver’s seat and waved. She waved back then peered at the wolf sitting next to her shoulder. Oh my God! “I thought...”
     
    Tess and Hallie, the Demakis twins, walked up the steps whispered a quick “hi” before disappearing into the inn.
     
    Kate was right behind them. “Sarah, I’m sorry, but I need a definite yes or no on the ceremony. Breena Taylor just texted. Camila is missing and Renata broke into the shop. I have to get back to Vegas. If you we aren’t doing this, I need to catch the first flight out of here I can get. ”
     
    “I am,” she answered softly. She had to. She owed it to Brad and to herself.
     
    The wolf next to her leg stepped away. It shifted, and Chris appeared instantly. His tanned, lean body glistened in the light of the late afternoon. The transformation was amazing. There just wasn’t another word for it. One moment he was a majestic gray wolf and the next a sleek, muscled man.
     
    He turned away from her and grabbed a pair of sweatpants from one of the porch chairs. The angle was quite fabulous for admiring his muscled ass, which she definitely did. She understood now why there were little stacks of clothing scattered around the outside doors of the inn.
     
    Naked shifters.
     
    “What happened? Were there any clues at the store?” he asked Kate.
     
    All the others joined them on the porch.
     
    “She said Renata’s scent was all over everything, and stuff is missing from the shop. Ingredients to make a very powerful poison. She also said there was blood everywhere.” Siobhan sobbed. “But, worse than that, Renata managed to break into our computer and hack our subscription list.”
     
    “Why is that worse?” Nicole Demakis piped up. “Why would Mom or the wolf care who subscribed to your newsletter?”
     
    “The newsletter list states whether they signed up as a practicing wiccan or as a civilian.”
     
    “Shit,” Nicole exclaimed. “She’s hunting witches.”
     
    Siobhan nodded.
     
    “It could be a misdirect,” Nicole began again. “Mom was always good at showing what one hand was doing so the other could do something else.”
     
    “So you don’t think the witches are in danger?” Chase asked.
     
    Sarah stood and leaned against the stair railing, taking it all in. It was crazy, listening to them talk about all of these things as if they were perfectly normal. Witches, spells, werewolves... How had they hidden it before? She’d gone to high school with Margaret, Sam, and Nicole.
     
    “They probably are, but they might not be at the top of her list. She wanted ingredients for a spell. What spell?” Nicole turned back to Kate.
     
    “ Mortum somnus was ripped from an open spellbook,” Kate answered.
     
    Everyone on the porch shook their heads.
     
    “It’s latin for sleeping death. Depending on how much she makes and how careful she is, the powder could spread and kill an entire city block before it goes inert.”
     
    “Did she get all the ingredients?” Sam asked, worry lacing her words.
     
    Kate nodded.
     
    “Who can she eliminate that gains her the most in the Council’s eyes?” Sarah asked quietly. “You have to think about her motivation. She’s trying to get back into their good graces, isn’t she?”
     
    “Yes, I think you’re right, Sarah and Grandmother is the link we are forgetting,” Nicole exclaimed.
     
    “What about your grandmother?” Scott asked, jumping into the conversation.
     
    “Remember we
