Pairing: Chuck/Nate, mentions of Nate/Catherine and Chuck/Blair
Rating: PG-13
Summary: "You would rather whore yourself out to the Duchess than just let me lend your mom the money." Set after 2.02, "Never Been Marcused."
A/N: This is a quick little drabble (~200 words) I originally scribbled down elsewhere. There's a ton more that could be done with this concept, but, uh, I so do not have time to write an epic fic of whore!Nate. I kinda wish I did.
