“I could have sworn my wallet was in here!” the woman in line in front of
me wailed, frantically digging through her oversized purse.

Oh no. Already, my palms were itching with the urge to help her. My
instincts insisted that she was a human in need, and that was what I was
here for. What every agathos was here for. To ease the suffering of humans
in need and silently guide them towards the path of light. To the goddess
Anesidora’s path.
All I’d wanted to do was grab some cupcakes from the store for Verity
Mae’s baby shower.
“Sorry, just give me a couple of minutes. I swear it’s in here. I need this
stuff, it’s for my son’s birthday party,” the woman said in a rush. She didn’t
look much older than me, late twenties perhaps, but there were huge
shadows under her dark eyes, and her black hair was pulled up in a very
mom-like messy bun.
I’d really hoped to get through today without anything bad happening, but
that wasn’t the reality of my life. I was a dispenser of luck, and I couldn’t
walk away from a human in need of some. Even if good luck for them
meant bad luck for me.
“Let me help you look,” I offered quietly. I’d pushed some of my agathos
gift into my voice to soothe her and make her more amenable to my help, so
she didn’t object as I stepped closer and rested my palm on her exposed
forearm. While I pretended to help her look in her purse—probably raising
the eyebrows of everyone else in the store—I opened the well of my magic,
letting some luck flow through me to her.
My palm tingled where it rested on the woman’s arm, but she wouldn’t
feel anything except a pleasant, unexplainable heat that she’d promptly
forget.
“I don’t see it here,” I said with a frown as I pulled my hand away.
Apparently her good luck wasn’t going to be finding her wallet at the
bottom of her overfilled purse.
“Here, let me,” a baritone voice said from behind me. A fancy looking
middle-aged businessman stepped around me, holding out his credit card to
pay for the woman’s groceries.
“Oh, thank you, sir,” the woman said, eyes welling up alarmingly fast. He
gave her a tight smile before stepping back, looking immensely
uncomfortable as the lady gathered up her bags, thanking him the whole
way out of the store.
I paid for the cupcakes before making my way back to my car slowly,
hoping something terrible happened between the store and my vehicle
because otherwise I was about to have a very unfortunate afternoon at
Verity Mae’s baby shower.
The car door unlocked easily.
I didn’t trip on anything on the way out.
No one had scratched the paint while I was inside.
So far, so good, which was also kind of bad.
