I’d never forget the scared expression on her face as they swarmed inside. She instantly put her hands up in the air although she had no reason to. They weren’t there for her.

They immediately hauled ass toward The Outlaws and Billy who were sitting at the corner booth in their usual spot.

The sheriff grabbed ahold of me, slamming my face against the pillar.

“You have the right to remain silent.”

“What?” Haven darted to my side. “Why are you getting arrested?”

“Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law,” the sheriff added. “You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you.”

I didn’t say a word. Unable to speak when she was looking at me with such a horrified expression clear across her beautiful face.

“What’s happening?” Haven hastily questioned. “Why are you arresting him? He didn’t do anything wrong!”

“Do you understand the rights I have just read to you?” he asked, ignoring her. “With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me?”

I shook my head, giving him his answer.

The sheriff gripped onto my arm, leading me toward the door.

“Hayes!” Haven yelled from behind us. “Tell him he has the wrong man! You want his father not him!”

I peered back at her as tears rimmed her eyes, and it broke my fucking heart.

“Excuse me, Miss.” Another cop stepped up to her. “Do you work here?”

“Not one fucking word, Haven. Not one!” I shouted from afar.

The sheriff started dragging me out of the bar. “Come on!”

“Do you hear me?” I repeated to her, “You keep your mouth shut!”

As soon as we approached the sheriff’s car, he threw my ass into the backseat, and I watched as two cops were trying to do the same to Billy. Except he was putting up a fight. He lost and I hated that they threw him in next to me. The second his ass hit the seat—he spit at their faces.

“What the fuck?” he argued as they slammed the door in his face.

“Calm down,” I ordered through a clenched. Over his dramatics and never-ending bullshit.

“What the fuck is this?”

“Your guess is as good as mine. What shady shit are you doing now that they’re raiding our bar?”

“I haven’t… I mean…it’s business as usual.”

“Yeah?” I spewed. “Well, who did you fuck over recently?”

His gaze went wide.

“I’d start there.”

“You don’t say anything until our lawyer is there,” he ordered. “Do you understand me?”

“The law’s not going to protect you when it’s your time to go, old man.”

“You’ll keep your mouth shut if you know what’s good for you.”

“That’s where your wrong, Billy. If it comes down to putting you to ground.”

I didn’t falter in threatening…

“I’ll sing like a motherfucking canary.”

Haven

I did as I was told and didn’t say anything to the cops. Despite them trying to ask me several questions.

The only thing I asked is, “Where are you taking him?”

“He’s going downtown.”

I didn’t waver, I jumped into my car and drove to the station. I was so shaken up that I called the only person I could think of.

“Hello,” she answered.

“Cove…”

“What’s wrong?”

“Can you meet me at the police station?”

“Oh my God! Are you okay?”

“Hayes has been arrested.”

“For what?”

“I don’t know. Can you please meet me there?”

“I’m already out the door.”

Everything felt like it was playing out in slow motion, but at the same time, it felt as if time was flying by. Thank God Cove was standing by her car when I pulled up.

She took one look at me. “Are you okay?”

“No.”

“It’s all right.” She hugged me. “Let’s go find out what’s going on.”

I nodded, too frazzled to speak.

Just when I thought things couldn’t get any worse between us, this happened and blew everything else out of the water like a fucking tsunami. Since we weren’t immediate family, they wouldn’t tell us anything at the station. They treated us as if we were nothing but a nuance.

“Can you at least let me speak to Chase Hayes?” I begged the clerk.

“I’m sorry, Ma’am. Unless your immediate family you can’t see him.”

“Then how much is his bail?”

“Again, I can’t disclose that information.”

“Then what are you good for?”

“Haven…” Cove coaxed, rubbing my back for support. “It’s not her fault. Legally, they can’t tell us anything without fear of getting sued.”

“This is bullshit!”

I was aware I was acting out of character, but I couldn’t help it. Everything seemed to be caving in on me and I was barely standing at that point.

What else could happen?

“Come on,” Cove suggested, tugging me away before I ripped her head off.

“Let’s go get some food and figure out what we can do.”

“Okay.”

She was right. They weren’t going to tell us a damn thing. On our way out, my phone rang with a private number and my heart fluttered, intuitively feeling like it was Hayes.
