I pull Levi into a tight hug and whisper in his ear, “is it wrong that I found your red eyes seriously hot.”

“Not at all Darling.” He growls in return squeezing me tightly before letting go. “Come on let’s go see Erin, I want to know more about that training academy.”

I barely make it through the door when I’m tackled in a giant hug by an excitable Erin.

“Sage!” she grins happily as she finally lets me go, before she grabs my hand and pulls me into the front room, “come on I want you to officially meet, Kyle and Nate.”

I giggle as I follow her in, then stop dead. “Dude you got yourself two sets of twins?” I smirk.

“Oh yeah!” she winks at me. “Hey, you got yourself triplets.”

“We’re lucky bitches!” I grin as I turn to introduce myself. “I’m Sage.” I say smiling, Nate and Kyle are identical twins with dark red hair, and light green eyes. They’re hot.

“We’ve heard all about you.” Nate grins cheekily.

The guys all do that bro hug thing and start catching up, it seems they’ve known each through other jobs for a while now.

“All good things I hope?” I reply to Nate.

“Mostly,” Kyle grins and I raise my eyebrow. “We heard that you’re scary as fuck when you want to be and like to goad dangerous men.”

The room pauses.

“Well thanks for that dude.”

“I remember one of them saying something similar yesterday, but I was too distracted to question you about it.” Levi says raising his eyebrow.

“Guess it’s time for that debrief.” Erin grins.

“Coffee is on the table, help yourselves and then take a seat.” Willow offers.

We all traipse back into the dining room and make our coffees then sit down at the table that is only just big enough to fit all of us.

“So, what did he mean, Little Star?” Jax asks raising his eyebrow as Levi shoots me a stern look, why do I find that hot?

“I am so going to get you guys back for this!” I growl at her guys and they all chuckle. I share a look with Erin, and she nods, “I don’t know what you’re laughing at, your girl just agreed to help me.” I smirk as they all shoot her panicked looks, she just crosses her legs, leans back in her chair, sips her coffee and smirks.

“Stop stalling, Darling." Levi warns and whilst Erin's team shoots him shocked looks, mine look at him concerned.

“Are you going to be ok hearing this, brother?” Hunter asks, and Erin raises her eyebrow in question.

“I’ll be fine, if not just do what you did before, that helped.” He says to me.

I nod. “Do you want to start and I’ll take over when we get to the bit where I’m brought in unconscious?"

For some reason what happened in the warehouse isn’t affecting me as much as I think it should be, or maybe it’s just that the trauma of what I’ve remembered overshadows it. Maybe I’m just fucked up because as far as I’m concerned, the story of the warehouse has a happy ending, the guys came for me.

“Yeah, I can do that.” Erin says before taking a deep breath.

Micha interrupts.

“Whilst you are giving your formal account of what happened in the warehouse, you will be filmed. I’m sure you’ve been told that this is how we take statements but as you haven’t been through the process yet and we are in an informal setting, I just wanted to make sure you were aware.” He informs us all.

Erin’s team all nod in agreement, none of them seeming shocked at the news. I personally think it’s a genius idea, you can re-watch tapes and study facial ques, micro expressions and all sorts, if you’re interrogating asuspect to see if there’s anything you’ve missed.

I’m impressed.

“Good, carry on then.”
