You’re Mine by Penny Brooks novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103

Easton Oh shit.

Between Harper tossing Blake and Aisha out— something I'd already done and they hadn't listened—and Sadie asking Ryan if he fucked Aisha, I don't know which is more wild.

Maybe it's the possibility that my best friend hadn't fucked anyone before Sadie.

That little player made his way around school, the same way I did.

But he hadn't slept with any of the girls he hooked up with? Now that's mind—blowing.

"Sadie ... '

Ryan starts.

"Don't fucking Sadie me, '

she responds.

I look at my girl who's taken a seat on the couch, staying far away from this argument.

Hell, I don't blame her, it's her brother and his sex life.

That's ano touch zone.

"L need an answer, Ryan.

I need to know the truth if you want this relationship to last a second longer. '

He moves across the room and tries to put his hands on her waist, but she pulls away.

“Answer me, '

she snarls.

His face drops, no longer making eye contact with her.

Oh damn.

I can feel Sadie's anger building from all the way over here.

“You know what kills me the most? '

Ryan says.

"That you're questioning whether I told you the truth or not.

That you listened to her and doubted me. '

"You're turning this around on me? How dare you- '

"You're furious that Aisha made you look like a lunatic outside, chasing after her with a knife when it wasn't true.

Meanwhile, she stuck a knife in my back and you're kicking me while I'm down. '

My eyes are bouncing between Sadie and Ryan, taking in both of their expressions, feeling both sides.

“I need to hear you Say it, '

she whispers.

"I need it, Ryan. '

"I didn't fuck her. '

Sadie puts her hands over her face, bending forward, like she's just finished running and she's trying to catch her breath.

But I know she's just trying to hide her emotion.

She feels emotionally beaten.

We all do at this point.

I walk over to the couch and sit next to Harper, pulling her against me.

She doesn't move as easily as I want her to.

In fact, her body is stiff, almost frozen.

“What's going on, baby? '

"That was ... '

She shakes her head.

“I can't, Easton.

I just can't. '

"Can't what? '

I turn her face, so she looks at me.

“Breathe. '

She gets up and rushes down the hallway to our room and I glance back at Ryan and Sadie, Sadie now hurrying after , leaving Ryan and I staring at each other.

“What in the literal fuck, '

I say to him.

He puts his hands in the air like I'm pointing a gun at him.

"I have no fucking idea what just happened.

It's like the goddamn Twilight Zone just exploded in here. '

I smile, remembering the highlights, and the one I want to bring up.

"So, V—card, huh? At the lake house out of all places— '

"Shut it, '

he warns.

"Seriously, not a fucking word about it. '

I didn't know my boy was a virgin, I certainly didn't think he'd be losing it this weekend.

As much as I want to give him shit, I don't, I sit on the couch and run my hands through my hair, moving on to a more pressing matter.
