“No, I need to get her out of here and go home.” Beth answered.
“The sheriff will give us a ride home and we can come back tomorrow for your car.” Razer said, moving close to Beth and Lily protectively. The whole time Lily still did not move. The sheriff’s car pulled next to them and the Sheriff got out to open the car door for the three of them.
“You all right?” Viper moved to stand next to her.
“Yes.”
“I will be back in a minute to get you and Ton. I am going to go get my car.”
“Okay.” Winter didn’t know what else to say, giving his hand a tight squeeze and a nod to his father who immediately moved to her side as Viper jogged off.
“I’m sorry Winter, I should have left when Beth tried to get me to.” Ton apologized.
“It would have been wise, but I understand your frustration with Sam. She’s had Viper just as angry, Ton.”
It didn’t take Viper long to return with his car. They dropped a quiet Ton off before returning to the clubhouse. He was packing her back inside when the other members began returning. Viper sat her down on the bed.
“Do you need me to get your pain medicine?” Viper asked in concern.
“No, my back doesn’t hurt.”
“I need to go downstairs, you alright?”
“I’m fine. I think I am going to lie down for a while.”
“I’ll bring our dinner up when its ready.”
“Sounds good.” Winter watched silently as he went into the bathroom and washed his hands and face before going downstairs. Winter could tell he was still furious. She just hoped the sheriff was smart enough not to release the bikers anytime soon.
Viper went downstairs; the members were waiting for him. The women were sitting in the living room while the men were off in the kitchen.
“Cash?” Viper wanted information.
“The Sheriff arrested all the bikers. Sam was let go as you requested. Rider is trailing her, seems she has taken up with the club across the state line.”
“Blue Horsemen?” Viper asked, surprised. Until now, they had been smart enough to keep a respectful distance.
“Yes.”
“Confirm this, then we will make our move.” Cash nodded in agreement.
“Where is Shade?” Viper asked.
“Same place Razer is.” Cash answered.
Viper nodded. “Knox, Train, make sure when this goes down they leave some of them breathing. I want someone left alive to spread the message not to fuck with us.”
“It’s going to take more than me and Train to accomplish that job. We could contain Razer if were lucky, but Shade,” they both shook their head. “You know how he is when he’s pissed and that doesn’t even begin to describe the mood he is in now.”
Viper nodded his head in agreement. “Cash, when we’re ready to make our move, send for back-up from Ohio. Not enough to make us weak there, but enough that we can take care of the Blue Horsemen and keep Razer and Shade from wiping out the whole club.”
Viper turned to Train. “Get Evie,” he ordered.
Train left to go into the other room. Moments later Train returned with Evie by his side.
Viper gave her his instructions.
“I need you to take the shopping bags in my car to Beth, let her pick out her stuff then you can bring the rest back here for Winter. Check on Lily and ask if they need you for anything.”
“I’ll leave now.” Viper tossed her his keys. As soon as she left the room, Cash asked the question that was going through all the member’s mind.
“What about Sam?”
“I am done asking for information from her. She is never going to tell the fucking truth. Evie and the women can deal with her.” The other members nodded in agreement.
“When do you want to hit the Blue Horsemen?”
“We don’t go in blind. Let Shade do the recon, then we’ll make the decision. I want the brothers from Ohio here a few days before we hit their club. When I give the word, I want to be ready to ride.”
The Last Riders sat grim faced, each preparing for the battle ahead. The Blue Horsemen club would pay for what just a few had done. By the time they were done with them, they would no longer exist.
Chapter 9
Monday morning dawned with the members quietly getting ready to work their shifts in the factory. Winter rose early, letting Viper sleep. After she dressed, Winter rolled her wheelchair to the desk and began tending to Viper’s never ending paperwork. The amount was staggering. If she hadn’t been working on the paperwork during her free time, it would have been even worse.
