    About this ebook

    Rubble, Rubble, Toil and Trouble

    Fires are burning. Cauldrons are bubbling. 

    Are they conjuring a spell? Cooking dinner? 

    No! The Baba Yaga is throwing an All Hallows Eve party to lure a vampire maker out of hiding and she's using Hildy as human bait. Witches are human after all. Chuck's ripping down trees to make enough wooden stakes to kill a whole coven. 

    All Hildy cares about is that there are a bunch of coffins in her backyard. What is she supposed to do with vampires? Bat shifters, Carol wanted to call them, but that's a bunch of bull crap—or rather, guano.

    She's not the Baba Yaga. Why does Carol keep involving her in her schemes?

    There's more magic and mayhem going on than you ever believed you could happen.

      Party Like A Witch - Donna McDonald

      1

      Par-tay! Par-tay! Par-tay! Carol chanted as she skated around Hildy’s basement that doubled as a shifter hospital.

      Orange glitter filled the air as she spun in circles but Carol made sure it disappeared before it landed on anything. Hildy—aka the resident Shifter Healer—was her best friend in the entire world. Plus, she was a more-often-than-not a cranky witch when it came to someone contaminating her healing area with magic other than her own.

      I am not in the mood to help with your stupid party.

      Lighten up, for Goddess’ sake, Carol ordered. She waved a hand, and the Bee Gees sang along while she practiced her fabulous skating dance moves.

      I’m not helping you. Last time I helped, you froze me, Hildy insisted.

      Listening to the Bee Gees was bad enough, but the sudden appearance of a swirling disco ball over her examining table had Hildy stopping her efforts to scrub away the blood from her last work. When the wolf in the cage behind her whined at Barry hitting the high notes on Staying Alive, Hildy turned back and glared at the Baba Yaga who was acting like an idiot.

      Carol, stop singing along before I zap you, Hildy warned. And turn off the freakin’ music. You’re scaring my patient. Poor Howler Jr. is traumatized enough. This is his first shift into his wolf and the Bee Gees have to be killing his young wolf's ears.

      Carol rolled to a stop and fisted hands on her hips as she let the music die away. You’ve completely forgotten how to have fun. What’s happened to you, Hildegard?

      Hildy huffed. "What do you think, Carol? I grew up. I’m scrubbing blood off my examination table because Mac’s bringing his adopted son over. Kid bounced too high and hit his over-sized kangaroo head on the ceiling of Mac’s house. Apparently, Jeeves got excited when Mac said he’d pay for culinary school for him. Now Mac’s worried the boy has a concussion. And he’s my tenth patient of the day. Do you not see how serious my life is?"

      Three sets of grunting cubs suddenly came rushing down the stairs yelling Auntie Carol’s here as loudly as they could. Even though they dwarfed her now, they still threw themselves at the laughing woman dressed in a lime green spandex jumpsuit. Hildy rolled her eyes at the witch she no longer recognized. Since taking on a whole posse of warlocks, Carol had grown giddier and giddier. The Baba Yaga wasn’t supposed to be giddy. The Baba Yaga was supposed to be somber… kick-ass… terrifying.

      Hildy frowned as she heard Carol asking each boy for an update. The Baba Yaga had made sure the cubs Chuck had raised as his sons had the best training in the whole magical world. She was grateful for that—she was. Goddess knew, her work barely left her time to do any quality mothering.

      But her gratitude was no reason for Carol to assume she could just do whatever the hell she wanted in Assjacket whenever she felt like it. This was Hildy’s town. Shifters came from many surrounding to states to get treated here. Assjacket did not need to be front and center in the Baba Yaga’s nefarious schemes.

      Watch the metal bra, boys. It doubles as body armor. She pointed to her breasts. These metal babies are pointy enough to put out both your eyes at once.

      Hildy rolled her eyes when the cubs all said the metal bra was cool. She rolled her eyes higher when Carol carefully hugged them. Lord, they had really grown. They were eye-to-eye with Carol who was still wearing her skates.

      Wow, boys. What is Hildy feeding you three? You’re as tall as I am, Carol exclaimed.

      Honey muffins, they all said with a sigh and turned to beam at the closest thing to a mother they had. Hildy smiled back at her boys as Chuck jogged down after the basement stairs to retrieve them.

      "Sorry, honey bun. They got away from me again. They said they heard music… Oh, hey, Carol… I mean… Hello, Great Baba Yaga."

      Hello, Charles, Carol said with a smile. Want a hug? I’m wearing my metal bra today.

      Chuck shook his head and laughed nervously. "Uh… better pass this time. You look dangerous in that bra… uh, I mean, pointy chest armour. I’ve got to take the boys to see their father—other father, that is. I don’t want Hildy to have to heal me before I can go. She’s had a long day. He glared at the cubs. Upstairs, boys. Grab your homework so your Other Dad can check it."

      The cubs grumbled and one said, but Dad…

      Chuck growled, and the sound shook the basement walls. The cubs ran over each other trying to get up the stairs and away from their growling parent.

      Chuck turned to the wolf in the cage who whined and covered his ears with his paws. Sorry, Howler. It’s the only way to get them to obey.

      He grinned when the wolf let loose a mournful howl in protest. Chuck smiled down at Hildy before
