SAGE novel Chapter 1

Sage Miller

Freshly out of the shower, my eyes quickly found her. My one muse. She was quickly becoming my one-way straight to hell. I stalked up to her near the dressing table.

She made eye contact through the mirror and smiled, I smiled back at her. I hugged her from behind and I kissed her neck, savoring the way her breath shallowed.

She is hell itself and I'm gladly giving myself up to burn with her flames. I'm a moth drawn to her flame. I will gladly burn in her flames. That's how addicted I was to her.

"Sage." With her shallow breath, she moaned.

I pulled back, stop for a moment, and savored the moment. She's looked so fucking beautiful under my touch. I loved how she crumbled under my touch.

"Sage." She whimpered throwing her head back. She rested it on my shoulder.

I traced my finger from her jaw, down to her chest then to the hem of the towel ready to let it loose. My other hand was holding her steady against me.

Smurf. What is she fucking doing to me?

I brought my finger back to her chin and hooked it under her chin and coaxed her to look at me. Slowly she opened her eyes. She did so, reluctantly staring at me. Her bright pale blue eyes.

Her eyes are so damn enchanting. The blue orbs, so pale yet they sparkled with desire. It's as if she was looking right through my soul. Even through the mirror.

She looked at me like she was ready to let me devour her.... maybe I was. Maybe she knew I wanted to devour her. To make her mine for all eternity.

She is the distraction I'll ever need.

I grazed my teeth on her skin. She whimpered and pleasure surged through my body from hearing her soft whimper.

Smurf. What are you doing to me?

I quickly turned her around and pushed her to the nearest wall I could get yourself too. I hooked my right arm around her waist and roughly pulled her to me and her head fall back. My mouth was on her neck and sucking.

"Please." She whimpered.

"Please what Smurf? What do you want?" I smugly smirked against her skin. I liked it when she begged.

"Give it to me. I want it now." Her voice came out hoarse, barely audible.

I reached down and grabbed the back of her thigh. I squeezed it and moaned. I dived into the cock on her neck again and suck, hard on that skin. She moaned loudly this time calling my name. I was pul--.

Just then, voices rang throughout the house. All movement stopped and I rested my head on Alora's shoulders. I counted to ten and pulled back letting her thigh go.

I sighed and she looked away peeling herself away from me. I huffed a breath, reading to bite Sebastian's head off. He couldn't have come at a worse time.

I knew it was him and Connor.

A few other voices rang throughout the house meaning they weren't alone. I sighed when Alora moved out of my hold. I forgot they were coming over. And I think they're too early.

Already fully clothed, I turn to Al.

"You staying the night?" I asked her. She arched a brow at me in questioning. "I invited a few friends over although I forgot till a minute ago."

"You want me to stay?" She asked sounding surprised. "With your friends?"

I rolled my eyes at her.

"Or you could stay up here. Your choice."

"I'll join you." She said as she dropped on the bed.

"Now get dressed. I'll be downstairs." I told her and started heading out.

"Ain't you gonna take care of that?" I heard hers ask. I turned around and my eyes followed hers down my pants.

I lifted my eyes and met hers and smirked. She bit her lip and that simple action made me wanna jump her bones again.

"Nah, want them to see what you did," I smirked at her once more and opened the door.

"But you jumped me not the other way around." I heard her protest as I closed the door.

I walked down the stair and Sebastian spotted me first.

"Took you long enough." He complained and grabbed a beer and throw one for me. I caught it with ease.

I ignored his remark and walked towards the kitchen.

Winter was over and soon we were no longer gonna be sophomores. This was just a party for a few friends to hang out at my house since my sister moved out a few months back.

I hated being alone in the house so whenever I can I threw parties though today wasn't suppose to be a party. Not on this magnitude anyway.

I stopped when I saw Connor in the kitchen. We greeted each other.

I had only two friends in the whole world. Connor and Sebastian. They are the closest people I have to family aside from my sister.

I met Sebastian first, back in third grade and we both met Connor in 7th grade. The bond I share with Sebastian will never be the same as the bond I share with Connor and until recently both Sebastian and I treated Connor like a lap dog.

But that's all over. Connor is my friend just as much as Sebastian is.

"You have that look." Connor stated and I raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, what look?" I asked him.

"Hey, Sebastian." He yelled. "Sage has that look."

"Oh yeah! I noticed."

"What fucking look you assholes talking about?"

"That freshly-fucked look." Sebastian smugly said.

"Both you needs to get laid."

I groaned and continued to walk. I had a couple of idiots for friends. And frankly that was none of their business.

I walked back to the living room when I heard the door opened and more people poured in.

"How many people did you invite?" I hissed between Sebastian and Connor.

I knew I was gonna regret letting them handle this.

"Don't worry those should be the last of them," Connor replied and I once again groaned.

I looked around the house and they were like fifty people. I thought that we were going to be like ten or five. I would have been fine with that. Even twenty would've been fine.

"You invited the whole sophomore year, did you?" I pointed out and they both smirked and walked back to the kitchen.

At the corner of my eyes, I saw Kate. I quickly turned to my dump-ass friends ready to have their heads for dinner but they were already out of sight. I quickly followed them to the kitchen.

"Why the fuck would you invite her here?" I hissed at them. They can be so fucking stupid.

That girl is clingy as hell and I don't need her here. She's drama on legs.

"What is the problem? You were licking it yesterday at the dance." Sebastian asked confused.

"I told you. She's so.....clingy and she's gonna start causing drama and being her bitch self." I tried explaining them. I just know this will end badly.

None of them can be called my girlfriend. I don't want a girlfriend nor do I need one. Not with how fucked up my life is. We can have fun and cause trouble, that's all I want.

"And why would she cause drama?" Connor asked this time.

Just as I'm about to answer his question. Alora came down the stairs and I swear to you that time stood still. Her presence demanded attention.

And attention she got. Every eye was on her as she walked down the stairs wearing a black and red mix-matched skirt with a white crop top.

Her eyes flickered to everyone and they landed on me. She smiled at me and I returned her smile.

I could smell her from across the room. Her sweet strawberry scent masked the beer and every scent in the room. The only person I could smell was her.

"And he says he's not whipped." I heard Sebastian mutter under his breath. I ignored his ass and went to get Alora and introduced her to everyone.

"Sorry. It was supposed to be a few friends." I chuckled leading her to the sofa.

"I don't mind." She replied and I pull her down to the sofa and handed her a cup with Vodka and ginger.

She thanked me and took a sip. I hooked my arms around her but I caught Kate's eyes.

And if looks could kill I'd be burning right now. I asked her to some stupid Valentine's dance yesterday and I may have fucked her. Now she thinks I'll be loyal and play college duty with her. It was a once of thing. Fun, no strings attached.

A few games were played and among them were beer pong. I was getting tipsy and so was Al. I could tell because she was dancing and everyone was enjoying the show, I included.

I pulled her off the table. That's enough dancing for the night. And with how much she drinks, I didn't want her to go over board. I'm working on improving her and not let her drink every fucking day.

I handed Alora a bottle of water and told her to drink all of it.

Suddenly feeling the need to smoke, I grabbed Alora and guided her towards Seb.

"Sit here I'll be right back," I told her leaving her with Sebastian. I turned to Seb and basically gave him a look that told him what to do.

I walked to our small backyard and pulled one joint and lit it. I liked to smoke whenever I'm drinking.

The back door opened and I turned my head and saw Kate walking out. She looked around until she spotted me. I knew she'd follow me out.

The whole night she had been looking at me. Shooting me daggers. I knew sooner or later she's catch up with me.

She stopped right in front of me. I didn't say anything and neither did she. I blew the smoke into the quiet night.

After I've finished my joint I started to walk back inside but Kate stopped me. I stared at her waiting for her to talk.

"So that's your girlfriend?" She asked bitterly. I rolled my eyes at her.

"No." I honored her with a decent answer.

"Don't lie to me. I know she is."

We fell back into silence. I didn't feel like bantering with her not tonight.

"Why did you get my hopes up yesterday? Why did you take me to the dance if you already have a girlfriend? Why did you sleep with me? I thought you liked me." Her voice cracked at the end.

"I do like you," I told her and that was the truth. "I don't have a girlfriend and I don't want one."

"But you asked me to be your Valentine." She whispered.

"It was a dare."

"What?"

"Don't be dramatic Kate. You got a date out of it." I gave her a bored expression. "It was fun, you and I had fun and that was all there was too it. Don't ruin a good memory with your attitude."
