EARLY MARCH, 1885
K ade McKettrick rode slowly into Indian Rock, that raw and ragged afternoon at the tail end of winter, hat pulled low over his eyes, the collar of his muddy black duster raised in a futile effort to warm his ears. Hed grown a beard in the weeks since hed left the Triple M, at the old mans worried urging, in search of the recalcitrant brother riding beside him now. Far as he was concerned, the old man had nobody but himself to blame for all the problems. Hed been the one to pit his three sons against one another in the first place by issuing a decree that the first to marry and produce a child could get the ranch.
Now, Kades hair was shaggy, his scalp itched, and he couldnt remember the last time hed had a hot bath, a sound nights sleep, or a decent meal. After following a number of false trails, hed finally tracked Jeb to Tombstone, where the little bastard had been having a high old time, and the whole experience had left Kade with a sour taste in his mouth. Right about then, hed just as soon knock out a couple of Jebs perfect teeth as look at him.
Jeb had come along willingly enough, probably because hed been up to no good in Tombstone and gotten on the wrong side of some bad people, though if hed wanted to stay, Kade would have had a fight on his hands. Jeb hadnt offered any insights into what hed been doing, and Kade, being equally stubborn, hadnt asked for any, though hed surmised on his own that women were involved. With Jeb, women were always involved.
The fact was, he was curious about his brothers exploits, but he was in no mood for Jebs patented smirk and smart-ass rhetoric, so it was better all around to leave well enough alone, for the time being at least.
Main Street was uncommonly quiet, and the air had a certain weight, as though something were waiting out there, just beyond the edge of town, building up steam. Without exchanging so much as a glance, the brothers reined in at the livery stable, where Old Billy kept his blacksmith shop, saying as few words as possible to each other or the talkative proprietor while they made the arrangements and left their horses to be fed, groomed, and put up for the night. Kade wanted nothing so much as to get back to the Triple M, back to his books and his own bed and Concepcions fine and consistent cooking, but night was coming on, and the animals were spent from several days of hard riding. The ranch was just two hours away, but it might as well have been twenty, in terms of the effort required to get there.
