Shane shrugged out of his flannel into just a white tee. He handed her his shirt. “You stay here. After I deal with them, we can do the rest of our date.”

She put her forehead on her hands as he and Wyatt and his crew strode out of the restaurant's front door, the bartender shaking his head at them.

She’d been intending to simply leave, but now that seemed impossible.

“Dwayne, you watch her,” the man named Wyatt shouted, pointing in her direction. “Make sure she stays there so whoever wins can come back and claim her.”

Her eyes widened as a scruffy blond man sidled over to her and sat on the other side of the booth, eyeing her with a mean smile. She squirmed uncomfortably.

He was quiet, but she looked over at the exit, wondering if there was still anyway she could make a break for it. As if he sensed her intent, he got out of his side of the booth and came over to hers, sliding in next to her.

The booth was long, so despite his huge size, he didn’t touch her, but she felt intimidated all the same.

“Um, I think there’s been a mistake,” she said, looking into Dwayne’s face and hoping there was a way to convince him to just let her go. “I’m not… I mean… maybe I should go.”

“Naw,” Dwayne said. “Boss is gonna win you and then you’re coming back with us.”

“I beg your pardon,” she said, pushing against his chest. He had a rough face with features that seemed like a blunted version of the more handsome Wyatt, who was presumably out front, engaged in fisticuffs, if the shouts were any indication.

“Nah,” Dwayne drawled, leaning in closer. “You don’t gotta worry about fancy words with me, darling.” His eyes strayed to her blouse. “Damn, you look good enough to eat.”

“I, um… The men outside, I don’t think they’d appreciate you… taking liberties.” She looked over to the bar but saw even the bartender had gone outside.

The man next to her did something very odd next. He sniffed her, taking in a long, slow breath. “Damn, you smell good. What is that?”

“Perfume?” she squeaked, reaching in her purse for her Taser with as much subtlety as she could.

Dwayne didn’t notice, looking over in the direction of the men outside and then back at her with a hungry gaze. “I don’t know if I can resist taking a taste for myself…”

She pulled back in the booth, hand grabbing for the Taser. She hated to hurt anyone, but she’d be damned if she let anyone paw her.

Not after the night she’d just had.

She couldn’t believe she was thinking it, but she almost wished the mountain man would come back. But since he was currently otherwise engaged, she’d have to take care of things herself. She sighed and pulled the weapon out of its pouch, hoping it had enough voltage to take care of enormous, horny rednecks.
