Perfect Pairing
’s Head
Office

 

Sadie smiled at the gold
-
trimmed envelope
sitting on top of today’s mail
.
It contained a weddin
g invitation. She knew that
even
without o
pening it
, and not
because of any
skill she possessed as a witch
. Her
first P
erfect
P
airing couple was getting married
,
and
last week
they’d phone
d
to tell her
an invitation was forthcoming
.
She couldn’
t
wait to see them exchange vows and then
walk down the a
isle as husband and wife. Watching them
take to the dance floor for the first time as
Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell Farraday would also be thrilling. Sadie clapped her hands together
several times
like an excited
little child. Being an invited guest
gave her an
excuse
to go shopping for a ne
w dress. Maybe even a hat. She
hadn’t worn one of those to a wedding

oh, in what
?
O
ne
hundred years
?
S
o
it was past due.

She opened the folder on her
desk. She’d mentioned this next couple
to Nadine and had lied somewhat w
hen she’d told her they were already
c
lients of Perfect Pairing.
Neither of them was
. Well
,
not quite yet
. Howev
er, she hadn’t been lying
when she’d said
that
they hat
ed one another
.
No
, that wasn’t the truth
either
.
They just thought they did. It was her job to convince them otherwise. It was also down to her
get them together so they could find out just how compatible they really were.

Nadine was
currently
at a conference in the other realm
,
so what she didn’t know, couldn’t hurt Sadie.
Okay, Nadine had warned her that she wasn’t allowed to use any witch
craft
while working for the Department of Love,
but a mere
boost of somethi
ng special wouldn’t hurt. S
he knew these two stubborn
,
soon
-
to
-
be lo
vers needed some help to get those
love wheels in motion.

Sadie walked to the cupboard where she kept her secret stash of potions under lock and key
,
just in
case Nadine ever came snooping around
.
She sorted through the jars and pulled out three of them, plus her
silver
mix
ing bowl. She’d need to use one of her
spell
s
to get this couple to sign up for Perfect Pai
ring. Sadie opened the first jar
and sprinkled in a few splashes of the light blue liquid,
and then
pulled out her jar of enlight
en
ment, otherwise known as

oh,
yea
h
, now I get it
,

and added first one dash and then for good measure, two more.
And he’d have
to forgive her for this one
,
but
it was only temporary. O
nce he met with his dream girl,
Sadie
would
remove the
impoten
ce
spell
,
and
as a way apologizing,
she’d make
him more virile than ever
. She threw in some more of
the
potion just for good measure
, closed her eyes
,
and cast
the spell
into the universe
.

 

 

Chapter One

 

Kyle threw down his car keys so hard they bounced back out of the dish on the co
unter
-
top in his kitchen. He
took off his jacket
and slung it over the couch.

He’d
had the most embarrassing night of his entire life.
He’d
had dinner with
a model whose legs he’d
fantasized
about all during the meal
. Those long limbs bei
ng wrapped around him while they got between the sheets
. However, when they’d got to that part of the evening, he’d been unable to perform
.
He
couldn’t
get a
hard
-
on.
Not even one tiny piece
of his cock would respond
,
despite her being naked with her those legs spread wide for him.

Kyle
slumped down on the co
uch and ran his hand through his hair
, hoping tha
t would help him
concentrate and
figure out
what had gone wrong tonight.
He’d laughed it off and said he’d had one to
o many drinks today
and hence his sudden impotenc
e
.
The truth was he never touched alcohol any more. Perr
ier or Evian was about as hard
-
core
as it got for him these days. No, boo
ze was not to blame for Mr. Flop
py.

His date had
even tried manual
,
and yes, oral stimulation
,
but still his dick had hung like a wet mop in a janitor’s closet.

Shit.

She’ll
p
robably tell all her friends
,
so
when I’m on
TV they’ll
all laugh
,
and they’ll
tell two friends
,
and…
