Viper's Run (The Last Riders #2)

Murmurs of approval filled the air before they quieted down with Viper’s next words.

“I wanted to handle this a few weeks ago, but Shade cautioned me to hold my hand. The group that Sam has attached herself to are one percenters, and he didn’t want us to strike out before we were ready. We are now prepared and that’s why I sent for you. We planned on hitting their club tonight, but they called for a meet this morning. My guess is they have someone watching the house and are aware that we are about to strike. I was not happy that they wanted a meet, but did so because Shade urged me to at least talk to them. I was glad I listened. The president of The Blue Horsemen informed me that the four men who attacked Beth and Lily were outlaws, no longer associated with their club. They have been trying to get their colors back, but they have been outrunning their enforcers. We offered our help and they accepted. Shade has put in motion a set up for tomorrow that they won’t be able to resist. We won’t need a show of force, but I am not an idiot. I won’t send you back to Ohio until our business with them is complete. Enjoy yourselves tonight and we’ll take care of business tomorrow morning. If everything goes as planned, you can be back home tomorrow night.”

After the meeting broke up, Viper and Razer went in search of their women, finding them seated on the couch with worried frowns.

Winter saw Viper and Razer now appeared more relaxed and her nerves settled.

“Everything okay?” Winter asked, searching Viper’s eyes.

“Everything is fine. We thought we had an issue with another club, turned out we were wrong,” Viper shrugged. “The brothers are going to stay the night and head back tomorrow.”

Relieved, Winter felt the tension her and Beth were feeling dissipate. Viper sank down onto the couch next to her, pulling her onto his lap. Razer repeated the same maneuver with Beth. At first, Winter felt uncomfortable, aware of the eyes of the house on her, but gradually she relaxed as she and Beth discussed bridesmaid dresses. Curious, Winter asked Razer if he had chosen his groomsmen.

“Yeah, anyone that wouldn’t black my eyes. They aren’t too happy being dressed up as a penguin for the day.” He cast Beth a reproachful look before he admitted defeat, the woman was determined to get her dream wedding, and Razer was all about giving her what she wanted. “Viper, Shade, Cash, Train, and Rider.”

“Not Knox?” Winter was surprised. Knox and Razer were constantly talking and cutting up with one another.

“Do you see Knox in a penguin suit?” Winter studied the man in question. Knox definitely was the largest of the members. It would be hard to find a suit to fit him, but it wasn’t his size alone that would have prevented Razer from asking. Knox was the most blunt of the group. If Razer asked Knox, he would in all likelihood tell him to fuck off. He had the shortest fuse, both with his temper and his sex drive. He was constantly with a woman, sometimes two. His muscled frame sometimes packed one on each shoulder as they went upstairs. He was the least handsome one in the group, yet he was the one your eyes were constantly drawn to. He had a clean-shaven head and several piercings. The one on his tongue constantly caught your focus when he talked and his cock was constantly out with the women. She had noticed what she would think would be several painful piercings on his cock. Even now, she watched the woman named K.O. press tightly against him as he leaned against the wall. Jewell walked over to them and within seconds the three were headed upstairs.

Winter caught Viper’s gaze and blushed. He gave her a wicked grin and continued talking to Razer. She relaxed against him as the discussion turned to colors for the wedding. Beth was debating sage green and coral when she deciphered Winter’s look of horror and decided on a peaches and cream theme. They had become so involved in their conversation that they hadn’t noticed the men stop talking and begin listening. It was only when the topic turned to flowers that Viper tugged on her hair.

“Want to go for a ride?”

Winter had never ridden on a motorcycle. She was nervous, but didn’t want to refuse to go.

“I haven’t ridden on a motorcycle before.” She glanced out the window and noticed it was beginning to get dark. “Maybe we should wait until tomorrow. It’s getting dark outside.”

“Nope, you don’t want to miss a moonlight run,” Beth urged, gazing up at Razer with a wistful look.

“Want to join them?” Razer asked Beth.
