Lilly’s face turned into one of horror.
    “Jesus, Sage, with what you wear on a daily basis and out, we need all the time in the world to get you ready for tonight. It’s a new club, meaning new guys arriving. Do you need me to say anymore?” Lilly’s voice raised as she spoke.
    Nope. Well shit, what the hell had she gotten herself into? This was going to be the longest night of her life, and they hadn’t even begun to get ready for the club yet.
    Standing up, she walked out of her room as Bri and Lilly followed her. She needed another drink and badly. By the time they would arrive at the club tonight, she was hoping she would be drunk enough that she wouldn’t have to go, but knowing her friends, they would drag her whether she was completely legless, drunk or not. There was no way she was getting out of going to the club, so Sage chose to bite her tongue and deal with it.
    Turning around and facing them as they made their way towards the front door, she spoke in defeat, “I’ll do what you asked before you guys get back.”
    “Good, you wouldn’t want one of us putting you in the shower when we got back,” Lilly laughed.
    “We’ll see you in a hour, and don’t even think about leaving or locking the doors. You know we’ll get in if we have to, Sage,” Bri growled.
    “Yeah, yeah. I know.” And she did. It wouldn’t be the first time that Bri had broken into her house. “Go, before I really change my mind about tonight.”
    Both girls left her alone in her house. Maybe she could get out of the evening if she told them why she really wasn’t up for it? But she knew if she told them the real reason, they would certainly push her more to go and lose her V-card. Slapping her hand over her face, Sage was convinced the night was going to be a disaster. Pushing herself from the kitchen bench, Sage made her way towards her room.
    As she made her way into her room, her phone rang from the lounge room. Quickening her walk, she reached for it before it went to voicemail. “Hello,” she panted.
    “Hey Sage.”
    Oh, my God, his voice. Smooth, sexy, a little grumble as he said her name, sent a shiver down her spine, making her whole body shake with want.
    “Zeb,” she practically panted. Well shit, he wasn’t the only one she did that around; it was all the Harper boys.
    “Why are you panting, Sage? Are you having sex?” he all but growled.
    What the...? Oh, sweet Jesus. With him mentioning sex, it had her thinking of all the things she wanted done to her, by him. She shouldn’t be having these kinds of feelings towards any of the Harper boys; they were like brothers to her.
    “Sage.”
    Shit!
    “Um, no, I’m not, Zeb. I was about to have a shower, and had to run for the phone.”
    “So, what? You’re standing there naked?” Did he just groan? Is he picturing me naked right now? Get yourself together, woman , she chided herself.
    “Zeb, I’m not telling you that. Jesus,” she hissed.
    His laughter came over the line, “Settle down, spitfire. It was a good thought though. Anyways, I was calling to see what your plans were for tonight?”
    “Um, I have plans with the girls tonight, why?”
    “What you all got planned tonight?”
    She wasn’t going to tell him where they were going. She knew them all too well, and if she told Zeb which resulted in him, telling the rest of his brother’s where she was going, they would either say ‘like hell she was’ or they’d rock up tonight and take her straight home. She wasn’t dumb, and although she really wasn’t up for the club, she didn’t want any one of them ruining it for her.
    “Um, nothing special, just staying in, having some drinks and watching a movie or two,” she lied, hoping he wouldn’t pick up on it.
    “Really? Why does it sound like that isn’t exactly your plan for tonight?”
    “I wouldn’t lie to you, Zeb,” she whispered.
    Laughing, he said, “I don’t even believe that, spitfire.”
    God, she hated that name. He wasn’t
