“Bingo.” Wendy points at me. “That’s the idea.”

“I mean to sleep,” I clarify.

“Maybe you need a sex buddy,” Rori suggests.

“Yes!” Wendy’s eyes gleam enthusiastically. “Now we’re getting somewhere.”

“In a perfect world, that would work, but I don’t know any men I’d want to have sex with.”

“What about a neighbor?” Evie asks.

I think of Les and sputter out a laugh. “Eww, no.”

“You have three brothers and they must have friends,” Wendy points out.

“How well do you think that would go?” I ask.

Evie snorts. “I thought Darius was going to snap when Ryder won your auction donation. You’d think the guy won your virginity or something.”

“Honestly, I’ve had enough of the overprotective brother bullshit. I’m thirty-one. He’s a little late to the game to protect my virtue. He’s just being ridiculous.”

“He is, but it’s kind of adorable,” Evie says, sighing.

“You would think so, but if it were your brother, not so much. I’ve been vagina blocked by them for years.”

“You should screw one of their friends to teach them a lesson,” Wendy suggests.

“No, that’s not a good idea,” Evie jumps in.

“I think you should focus on your business now, and when you’re meant to find someone, you will,” Rori interjects. “Look how Kaiden and I became reacquainted. It was so random that he was there precisely when I needed someone. Especially since we hadn’t seen each other in years.”

“I’m not saying she shouldn’t focus on her business, but she can slide in a little side action here and there. Besides, orgasms are good for you. My skin’s never looked so healthy.” Wendy turns her face from side to side to prove her point.

She might be right, because lately mine has been looking rather dull and haggard, and her skin is clear and glowing.

Wendy taps a red-tipped finger to her lips. “Tonight might be the perfect opportunity for you to meet someone. You’ll have the three of us as your wingwomen to do all the heavy lifting.”

“Let’s see how it goes. We don’t even know what comes next,” I say, putting on the brakes before things escalate too far.

Wendy has a level of confidence I’ll never be able to achieve. She’s unapologetically herself and it’s admirable. But that’s not me. I don’t hit on strangers and I don’t go home with them. Every man I’ve had sex with has been someone I’ve dated or had a relationship with.

“Okay, ladies. It’s almost eight o’clock and time to head to our next destination,” Evie says.

“Wherever that may be,” Rori adds.

“What the fuck?” Wendy mutters under her breath.

We all stare at the white brick warehouse-like building that has the name ZAP THAT ASS painted in giant green letters across the front.

“Is this one of those BDSM clubs?” Rori asks.

Evie pulls out her phone and starts tapping on the screen. “This is an adult laser tag facility.”

“What does that mean?” I ask.

“Do we have to strip down to play?” Wendy asks, looking intrigued at the thought.
