He can’t look much worse than he does now,” an amused voice said in her ear.
    Lily stiffened, beginning to get frightened.
    “Lily!” Beth’s yell as she drew closer was cut off when Razer grabbed her arm, preventing her from coming any closer.
    Lily turned her head as The Last Riders appeared in mass.
    Viper, Cash, Razer, Shade, Train and Rider were covering the parking lot with the rest of their members following behind while the women members kept Beth from running to her sister.
    “Want to take a bet on which one she belongs to?” the one with his arm around her waist spoke.
    “Don’t have to. I know,” the dark-haired one said in amusement, moving in front of Lily and blocking her from view.
    “Let me go.” Lily tried to wiggle from the grasp around her waist.
    “Calm down. I’m going to let you go.”
    Viper’s harsh voice could be heard over the thrumming of her heart. “Let her go.”
    The one with Gaige in a stranglehold turned back, moving closer to his friends.
    “I have every intention of letting this sweet thing go. We’re not out for trouble; just passing through.” He nodded his head at Gaige. “Found him giving her some trouble.” Nodding his head at Lily’s car, he then said, “Decided to step in. Seeing she’s yours, we’ll step back.” His arm slid away from Lily, releasing her.
    Lily took a step forward toward Razer while none of the men took their eyes off each other. The one with the scar stepped to the side. When Lily passed him, she brushed against him and his jacket moved to the side. Lily saw the gun clipped to his waist. Terror almost took hold of her, yet Lily knew she didn’t want anyone hurt.
    “He’s telling the truth, Viper. Gaige was angry that he got fired and they made him leave me alone.”
    “Lily, go to your sister,” Shade spoke.
    Lily had done what she could, so she went to Beth. Neither group of bikers was interested in her opinion at this point. It was now a standoff between the two groups.
    “Are you all right?” Beth asked.
    “I’m fine,” Lily answered, turning around to see what was going on.
    Seeing the one called Max hand over Gaige to Shade, Lily started to go back.
    “Stay here, Lily. Knox is pulling into the parking lot,” Beth said, placing her hand on Lily’s arm. Knox, a former member of The Last Riders, pulled his deputy car into the parking lot close to the men.
    Lily, Beth and the other women watched as the men talked. Knox took Gaige from Shade, putting him in handcuffs before placing him into the backseat of the cruiser. They continued to watch as the men talked to the members of the other motorcycle club. Lily bit her lip, not wanting anyone to get in a fight. The other men had only stepped in when they had seen Gaige bothering her.
    “What happened?” Evie asked. Lily told her and the women about Gaige breaking her windshield and grabbing her arm, explaining how the men stopped him.
    They stood watching as The Last Riders started back toward them with the men from the other club going to their bikes.
    Razer was the first to reach her; however, she felt Shade’s eyes running over her, checking to see if she was hurt.
    Assuring her bother-in-law that she was fine, they went back into the fair. Lily didn’t want to ruin the fun for everyone, so she changed the subject as she walked arm in arm with her sister through the fair.
    “Do you want to go back to the booth and get another figurine?” Beth asked.
    “No,” Lily said, aware of the others’ eyes on her. “Let’s play some games.”
    Attempting to prove that she was fine, she walked up to one of the booths where you had to throw a ring around a milk jug, handed the worker some money and he gave her several rings. Aiming, she missed pathetically. She tried again with the other two rings, throwing each one carefully, and missed them all.
    Afterwards, the others split up, going to different games and playing. The men went to the shooting game while Lily moved on to
