Everything her sister’s boyfriend said confirmed what Sawyer had told her. “Why didn’t you say anything?”
“Uh, I’m going to give you back to Elisa.”
Elisa huffed. “Coward. Okay, I did know Wyatt was interested, but he and Sawyer, well, they have complicated pasts.”
Like she didn’t know that. “He said he used to be a criminal.”
“From what I understand, he was in a rogue motorcycle club for a few years,” Elisa explained. “Do you know what a one percenter is?”
“I’ve seen Sons of Anarchy. Something like that?” She’d seen the previews at least.
“Pretty much but worse. The Colorado Horde is bad, Brina,” Elisa said, her tone grim. “But from what Nate told me, he went in to try to save his brother. He got out when his brother went to jail because he took things too far and got caught. You should know Wyatt’s older brother is the current president of the MC.”
“But they both got out.” It was all in the past.
“Yes, and Wyatt’s adorable,” Elisa agreed, “but you should know there’s another side to him.”
She wasn’t sure where her sister was going. “Everyone has a dark side.”
“You don’t.”
“Of course I do,” Sabrina said with a sigh. “I just don’t show it, and the violence I would do would likely always be to myself.”
“Sabrina.”
“No. I’m not saying I’m in a bad place, but I have been, and I managed to get out of it. I’ve had dark thoughts. Men who want to truly take advantage of a woman don’t lay out all the bad facts and then try to convince her to sleep with them. They pour on the charm.” Now she could clearly see what Sawyer had been trying to do. Warn her. Wave all his red flags. “He told me he wants to sleep with me while we’re stuck but he won’t date me afterward.”
“Wyatt said that?” Elisa asked.
“No, Sawyer.” What did Wyatt want from her? The situation was bizarre, but she couldn’t help but be tempted. “Elisa, tell me I’m naïve for thinking about telling them yes.”
A pause came over the line before her sister spoke again. “Do you think you’re getting a love relationship out of this?”
She was being realistic this time around. “No. I think I’m going to get an orgasm, and I would really like an orgasm, sis. I’ve never had a real one before.”
“You can’t be… I suppose you can be serious,” Elisa said with a sigh. “I know it couldn’t have been easy trying to date when you were living with our mom. And then I needed you.”
She could hear her sister getting emotional. Elisa had gone through breast cancer with surgery and chemo and radiation. Sabrina had taken care of her. She couldn’t let her think anything but the truth. “I wouldn’t take any of it back. I was so grateful I could be there for you. Not a second, Elisa. I wouldn’t change anything.”
“But you don’t have anyone to take care of now. You deserve some wildness,” her sister said, sniffling. “You deserve some joy, and I won’t think any less of you if you take it. If you can take what he’s willing to offer and nothing more, then it’s not a bad idea as long as you’re careful.”
“Trust me. I have zero interest in Mr. Hathaway outside of his very hot body and what seems like his well-honed skills,” Sabrina admitted. “He’s not someone I would want to spend time with in the real world. I don’t know about Wyatt. The crime-family thing is a bit off-putting, but I also think he seems incredibly nice.”
“You don’t have to make any decision except whether you trust them enough to spend a weekend with them. If the sex is bad or you decide you don’t want them anymore, it could get awkward.”
Or if she was bad in bed. She had to assume Sawyer had a ton of experience. Wyatt, too, since he was stunningly beautiful. And they’d done this together before. Though apparently only a few times. They were still probably good at it. She wasn’t even sure she could have an orgasm.
A huff came over the line. “I know what you’re thinking and stop. You’re not bad at sex. You just haven’t had a lot of it. I think you’ll find most men have low bars when it comes to sex. If you’re willing and enthusiastic, they’ll be happy. I can’t believe we’re talking about this. Are you sure you don’t want me to set you up with someone…”
“More in my league?” Sabrina asked.
“Not what I meant,” Elisa said quickly. “I meant a couple of guys who would maybe fit better into your life. I think if you give Marshall and Knox a chance, you’ll see how great they are. One date doesn’t mean a thing.”
She didn’t want to argue with her sister. She also didn’t need permission. Her sister thought she needed to move right into a permanent relationship, but Sabrina wanted to go a little wild for once in her life. There had been no spark with her sister’s coworkers. They were great guys, and maybe she would be able to have a more open mind once she’d settled in. But for now there was only one experience in the world she wanted to have.
