There was only one thing to do: tactfully give him the ring back. Adam opened the door wearing only his slacks. Sage momentarily lost her train of thought, so riveted was she by his naked chest. He was cut. His arms, chest and stomach muscles were clearly defined beneath his brown skin. She smiled. The teen whose chest had been practically hairless now boasted a profusion of hair. He was smiling at her as he stepped aside for her to enter. “Did you change your mind?” he asked pleasantly. He hadn’t seen the ring box in her right hand. Sage stepped inside, he closed the door and they faced one another. Sage handed him the ring box. “It’s a beautiful ring, Adam. Gorgeous, in fact, and I would be proud to wear it someday,” she said, smiling and pleading with her eyes for understanding. He accepted the ring in resignation, but his smile had faded. “Do you know what this does to a man’s ego, Sage?”
