Chapter 7

Island of Forever, Palace Gardens

Agatha was getting desperate. It was obvious that Jayne was being much too stubborn about her hatred of Nick and it was foolish. Jayne just needed a push in the right direction.

Agatha shook her head in half amusement and half frustration as she turned back to enter her home. This couple was going to find happiness together, no matter what it took. But, it was going to take some work.

Damn Cupid for interfering.

It was too bad about Jayne’s father’s illness, but there must be some way it could be used to help the cause because Jayne was visiting him so often. The hospital where he was confined was only about half an hour from where Nick’s parents lived.

Tapping her finger on her bottom lip, Agatha considered the situation in her viewing pool. Jayne had to drive right past the exit to her old hometown on her way to visit her father in the hospital. She’d kept in touch with her best friend Nicole, who just happened to be Nick’s younger sister. It was just after Thanksgiving and Nicole and her family were visiting her parents, and Nick stayed there on the weekends he came home from the city. This could work out after all.

Agatha peeked at Nick’s location and saw him planning his journey home, right on schedule. He was planning to be home to share the rest of the holiday with his family since he’d been unable to come down on Thanksgiving Day because of work. Agatha knew nothing would deter him since family was important to him.

Changing her view to the Graham homestead, she smiled at the family atmosphere. A few thoughts planted in Elaine Graham’s head and Agatha was pleased as she saw how easily they took hold. Going back to her view of Jayne driving down the highway, she wiggled her fingers over the scene before her. Snow began to fall, starting slowly, but quickly increasing.

“That ought to do it,” Agatha said, satisfied with the events she’d set into motion. “Sorry Cupid, your plan isn’t going to work after all.”
