Keep telling yourself that.
“Why are you doing this?” Her brother addressed him.
Mayhem looked at him, the little asshole that had gotten himself and Butters into this mess. Mayhem wasn’t the type of guy who gave people second chances. He gathered enough from what he’d dug up and what Butters had told him to know Nathan had done this so many times it was hard to even keep track.
“What difference does it make? I’ll be getting your ass out of deep shit from the Cardonas.”
Nate’s eyes grew wide, and he glanced at his sister. There was a silent conversation happening. Maybe Nate saw the truth of what was going on in his sister’s eyes. Either way, he kept his mouth shut.
“Everything will be okay, Nate,” Butters said.
Despite Mayhem trying not to eavesdrop, because frankly he didn’t fucking care, he couldn’t block out her voice. Knowing she was going to be his and that he’d agreed to her ridiculous “demands” only made him harder.
She wanted to pretend that they hadn’t done this, that she hadn’t agreed to fuck him to save her brother? That was fine with him. He didn’t care if anyone knew. All he cared about was her in his bed and him finally getting his need for Butters fucked out of him.
“When does the drop-off need to be made?” Mayhem asked.
Nate looked at Mayhem again. “They said I have until the end of the month. After that, they go after Renee.”
“Renee?”
“Me,” Butters said. She stood. “That’s my real name, and Nate is the only one who calls me that anymore.”
“I can’t have my sister hurt because I’m a screw-up.”
“I agree,” Mayhem said without any emotion. “No one should have to take the fall for another person’s mistake, but it’s a little late for worrying about that, right?” He glared right at Nate. “You already got her into this, so I have to make sure it’s cleaned up.”
“But why?” Nate asked again.
“Not your business, son. Butters wants to save you, and I want to help her. That’s the end of it.”
“What did you agree to?” Nate whispered, looking at Butters.
“Everything will be fine,” she said in response.
“This family time is nice and all, but we need to go. I need to talk to the club president again about this so we can get it cleared up and finalized.” He needed to let Fury know, so that he at least knew what the fuck was going on.
This was Mayhem’s own cash, so it wasn’t like he needed the club’s vote on how to spend it. He wanted Butters and had enough money saved that this was feasible.
But there was something deep down inside of him that wanted to do this to make her happy.
He couldn’t understand it, didn’t even try to figure it out. Since the moment he saw her, he’d wanted her, and each time he looked at her, that need grew until it was this obsession, until it was this desire eating him away inside.
He’d never paid to have pussy and never even thought about dishing out the kind of cash he was willing to give to Butters just to save someone’s ass, not unless he cared about them.
He didn’t know Butters from the next woman, but there was something about her that had him coming back, watching her, wanting her.
It was that obsession that had him doing this crazy as fuck stunt and dealing with a pretty dangerous mob family.
Chapter
Eight
“I can’t let you do this for me,” Nate said in a low voice as Butters was getting ready to leave. She felt this pang in her stomach at the look on his face. If possible, he looked even worse today than when he’d shown up at her house.
“I love you, and I know if the roles were reversed, you’d do the same for me. You’ll be safe. The Cardonas want their money. If they wanted you dead, well…” She didn’t even want to finish that thought or sentence.
“I promise I’m going to get better and get my shit together. I’ll get help and do whatever it takes to be the brother you need and deserve. I can’t have you in this kind of situation anymore.”
She smiled and grabbed his hand, giving it a squeeze. “I think that sounds like a good plan.” What she didn’t comment on was they’d gone down this route before. Maybe after this she should move?
Maybe they should pack their shit and go to another town. She didn’t have money saved up, but they would make it work. They just needed a fresh start.
She gave him a hug, and before she let her emotions get the better of her, she turned and left. She may not have said how she was getting the money, but Butters could tell from looking at Nate’s face he knew.
