“Fine, I don’t do anything reckless for now, but I make no promises about what will happen if I find out that the frat has anything to do with this.”
I think I might take a page out of Pyro’s book and just burn the house down with all of them in it. Some of them might not have anything to do with it but there is no good way to know that, and I am not willing to risk anyone else if we can’t find out for sure.

“Ladies! Please remember! We have to be careful with our drinks, don’t accept one that was brought to you, and do everyone a favor, if you aren’t drinking, keep an eye on your sisters. We have warned everyone that we think this is happening but there is no way to know how many of them take the threat seriously. There is little proof, and the college isn’t talking about it.” Zoe is giving the whole house a pep talk before we leave for the party. Surprisingly at least half the sisters have opted to stay home tonight, it means that I don’t worry quite as much but there are still going to be a lot of girls at this party and they might think that this is all just a big rumor.
We break up and a hand full of sisters leave, Raven, Zoe and I go back up to our rooms to finish getting ready.
“I want to wear that leather vest you wore to the ‘fuck love’ party,” Zoe calls from behind me. I’m digging through my shirts trying to find something to wear. I want to throw on a band tee and my favorite leather boots but that’s kind of against the image that most people have of me.
“That top is sexy as hell, are you trying to catch a man?” Raven asks as she pulls her dress over her head. I got the list of club members that are going to be at the party from Scar several days ago, I know exactly why she wants the leather top.
“Not catch, just impress.” I take the top she wants off the hanger and throw it over my shoulder at her, I decide I’ll just wear a blue V-neck and blue jeans.
“Did you invite Top?” Raven asks her with a little giggle.
“Top and Hollow are both going to be there,” she does a seductive little dance and shoots a wink at the shocked look on Raven's face.
“Both?” Raven squeaks.
“Hey,” Zoe shrugs, “Why limit yourself to the satisfaction of just one man?”
“My thoughts exactly!” I exclaimed from the closet. Raven might think that we are nuts but that’s okay, live it while you got it, life is too short, and every other cliche line that means do whatever you want while you can.

The music is too loud, and the house is overcrowded. The TKE house is one of the smallest at this school so even though this party is smaller than the one we had the house is fuller.
“Did you talk to Top?” I shout to Zoe while we dance.
“Kind of, but not exactly. We talked about the club member's willingness to share. Sorry, but I used your relationship as an example.”
“I don’t mind,” we are bouncing along with the music, but most of the girls are grinding and shaking their asses. I like to dance but showing off when my men aren’t here to watch does nothing for me.
“I plan on making it obvious tonight if Hollow shows any interest, that is.” I see both of them enter the room and because her back is to the door, she is oblivious. As if they are looking for me Hollow meets my eyes and I nod him over.
“Don’t get nervous, but they are here.”
Hollow has skin the color of light-roast coffee, and you can see the stark contrast of his green eyes even in the dim light. He gets enough attention walking through the dance floor to us that I’m surprised he isn’t enticed to stop and dance.
“Boss.” They both greet me with a smile.
“Banks and Scar would be floored if they heard you call me that,” I’m sure the smile on my face looks a little dangerous.
Top slides in behind Zoe and starts to move with her, “Banks said that while we are on campus, you are the boss.”
“I wonder how that would work if Scar was also here.” Hollow questions. I watch his eyes travel up Zoe slowly, she has one arm stretched up and wrapped around Top's neck. Hell, the way they are moving together is even turning me on a little, I don’t blame the guy for the way he is looking at them.
I move away a little and motion for Hollow to take my spot in front of her, he questions it, but I grab his arm and move him. When I stretch up to my toes, he leans down so he can hear me.
“She wore that top to get the attention of both of you. I’m expecting the two of you to keep her safe.” Shock crosses his face but only for a second before he puts his hands on her hips and pushes against her. I wink at Top over her head and squeeze her arm before I leave to find Raven.
It’s just as crowded in the backyard, but the music isn’t as loud. I make a lap around the edge of the yard; I am almost back to the door when I see her with Allison. I turn to head her way, and someone grabs my arm.
I tense up but stop myself from jerking my arm away from the person and swinging. I have got better at stopping my fight response but with everything going on, I’m on edge.
