Chapter Seventeen

In the midst of putting up storm shutters to protect the occupants of the clubhouse from gunfire in case the Russians came knocking at the door, Kellen paused. A bike roared up the lane, coming in too fast, and skidded to a halt out front.

The last screw went in nice and easy, and Kellen slid down the ladder rails and headed around to meet the rider. Dixon, the prospect, stood by the porch talking urgently with Badger. The pair noticed Kellen's approach and Badger signaled Dix to wait a moment.

"What's up, Dix?" Kellen almost dreaded the news. The upcoming fight was of no concern to him personally. He would be fine. He always was. But the responsibility for the Raiders taking part, and for the go-ahead on the crazy plan, weighed hard on his shoulders.

Dix brushed a hand over his close-cropped hair, ruffling it slightly. "More of those mob guys in town this morning. So far they're not doing much, just looking around, going into all the shops, walking the streets. People are getting nervous, wondering where the Raiders are."

Kellen nodded. He'd expected as much. "It'll be handled." Hell Raiders took care of any kind of trouble that came to Stags Leap, and the citizens were acutely aware of the sort of dangers that came with those men. He went on to give Dix a scant overview of the plan. Kid didn't need details beyond his own part in it all.

Dix nodded and asked for a couple of clarifications, then shrugged. "Whatever you need me to do, boss."

Kellen clapped him on the arm. "Thanks, man, knew I could count on you." And he had known it. Dix was solid. "Now, how's little Georgie doing?"

A red flush spread over Dix's cheekbones. "Uh, she's doing good."

"Didn't kick your ass this time?" The chuckle at that thought refused to stay contained.

"We might have come to a sort of understanding."

"Meaning you spent the night in her bed."

Dix's face flushed deeper and he shuffled his feet, looking as if he'd rather run ten miles than answer that remark.

Badger laughed aloud and rose from his favorite chair. "Dix, m'man, I think you got a long day ahead of you. I feel for you boy." The big man stomped away, headed toward the barn.

Kellen grinned at Dix. "So you made up for insulting her, huh?"

"Uh, I guess so."

Time to have a little mercy on the kid, especially considering how he'd spent his own night. "Okay, tell me more about these Russians. What are they doing?"

"So far, really not much, just making people nervous. Asking questions, looking things over closely. Everybody would be not so happy with how they're acting, even if those others hadn't torn up Zipporah's shop. Just odd enough to raise the hair on the back of your neck."

Kellen nodded, fully familiar with the feeling Dix described. "You going to hang out here or head back in right away?"

"I was hoping to just grab a change of clothes and some heat, and head back in.
