Free Devil's Ride by Clementine Roux

you start something with Devil and his crew, you better be prepared for the consequences." Sighing, he offered some advice, "Maybe, she just went for a walk. Maybe she just needed to clear her head. We'll help you look too. Not everyone here is like them. Bikers are good people."
                   
                  Joe looked at Robert. "What do I do here?"
                   
                  Robert raked his hand through his hair. "We'll find her. I'm sure she didn't leave with him."
                   
                  "I'm sorry," Sammi offered, but Joe didn't respond.

                     Alessandra looked back at him. "What are you doing?"
                   
                  "Watching you," Devon answered.
                   
                  "Well, don't. Leave. I don't need him to see you. This is crazy enough as it is." Alessandra started on the dirt path leading back to the gas station. She could hear bike and car engines roaring.
                   
                  "Hey, it's not like I kidnapped you. You were a willing participant, if I remember correctly." He rubbed his hand over the stubble on his chin, smirking.
                   
                  Alessandra fought to control her nerves. She knew she'd been gone too long and that everyone would be worried. Now, she had to come up with an excuse as to why she wandered off without telling anyone. Devon wasn't doing her any good by taking pleasure in her predicament.
                   
                  He called after her, "Don't forget. You can call me on that phone anytime, day or night. Don't lose it."
                   
                  She put her hand over her handbag to make sure the cell phone Devon had given her was still there, but she didn't turn around to respond back to him. She feared that if she did that, his handsome face and the magnetic pull that existed between them would force her right back in his arms and she'd never be able to pull herself away from him again.
                   
                  The roar of the engines ahead got louder. As she kept walking, she could hear the sound of voices. She took a deep breath, partially relieved that she had found her way back through the trees and partially disappointed that she had to say goodbye to Devon again. He was a hard man to resist and he knew it.
                   
                  "Okay, get it together. You're fine. You just went for a walk. No big deal," Alessandra tried to convince herself that all was fine and that she’d be able to get Devon out of her head. She loved Joe. He was solid and kind and generous.
                   
                  "What were you thinking?" Alessandra asked herself as she made it back to the gas station and saw Joe standing with his back to her, looking through the trees on the other side of the parking lot.
                   
                  Some people nearby caught sight of her and started shouting, "Hey, is this her? She's right here."
                   
                  One of the women in the crowd, a redheaded woman approached her, speaking in a gruff voice, "You the one the bride is looking for?"
                   
                  Alessandra swallowed the lump that formed in her throat, answering feebly, "The bride?"
                   
                  Sammi rushed at her from behind a truck. "Where the hell did you go?" She ran over to Alessandra and hugged her tightly, whispering, "I thought you were gone forever. What the hell happened? You weren't supposed to take off with
