"He didn't," I said, resisting the urge to glare back at him. I adjusted my grip on Tiberius to make sure he didn't slip off when he turned to look back at me. Part of me wanted to let him do exactly that, but now was the time. "He just came to me out of nowhere and said he was going to kill me if I didn't pay back my debt. Since I didn't have the money - which I'm pretty sure he had already guessed - he just told me to come with him if I wanted to repay the debt."
I let out a tired sigh.
"You saw how Butch is," I said. "I wanted to ask more about you, but he would have killed me if I had."
I felt a little smug by the time I finished talking - that had to be convincing. I didn't know what else I could say if it wasn't.
"So why do you have a bounty?" I insisted.
