Tanner looks between me and Drew. “It could be worse. At least you know where he lives if you want to kill him.”
“Ha the fuck ha,” Drew mutters.
Dax tips his empty glass at me, and I nod. He and Tanner head to the bar to get another round in.
“You know I’d do anything for her,” I say.
“Doesn’t change the fact you fucked my sister,” Drew grunts. “Multiple times.”
“I did.”
“And lied about it.”
“Yep.”
His eyes slant over in my direction. “You look like shit.”
“Thanks,” I mutter, dragging my hands down over my face. I’ve barely slept the past two days.
“You’re welcome.” His lips curl the tiniest amount beneath his grimace.
I smirk in response.
“Because of the business? The funding?” He quirks a thick, dark brow at me.
My smirk falls. “It’s shit. But no, that’s not it.”
“Do I want to fucking know?” he groans, tipping his head back and looking at the ceiling.
“Depends.”
“On?”
“On whether you want to know just how fucked up I am over your sister.”
He parts his lips.
“Yeah.” I blow out a breath. “Guess not.”
“Lay it on me.” Drew straightens and brings his dark eyes to meet mine. “Just don’t,” his face twists, “just don’t tell me anything likethat. My sister’s a virgin for the purpose of all our conversations. You hold her fucking hand and that’s all, you get me?”
“Yeah, I get you.”
“So, what’s she done?”
“What makes you think it’s her?”
Drew laughs, his face splitting into a wide-toothed grin. “This is Maddy we’re talking about. Besides,” his grin falters, “if it’s not her and it’s you, then Iwillhave to come to your place and kill you like Tan said.”
I snort, knowing there’s both humor and seriousness in his words. “I’d never hurt her. You know that.”
“Yeah.” He crosses his arms. “Lucky for you I do.”
“She told me we were never going to work. She wants me to marry Gabrielle.”
Drew nods. “Because that way, you’ll save the business?”
“Yeah. And she thinks she doesn’t deserve me.” I hang my head, the familiar pounding that’s been in there for days rearing its ugly head again and sending a tightening across my brow that has me cursing.
