16. Guard Dog Dodge
Dodge leaned back in his seat, the wood creaking out from underneath his weight, and watched as a brown haired man eyed his goddess, darkness glinting in his ice blue eyes; Dodge then turned his attention to Cassidy who hardly moved an inch, as if this man's voice had casted a curse over her beautiful self to stay frozen.
“Silas,” Thomas spoke first weakly, breaking the table’s silence and encouraging Dodge’s confusion to come to a sudden halt and become replaced by enmity; tucking his shaking left hand away in case this ‘Silas’ liked to pinpoint weaknesses.
Cassidy didn’t dare glance up, trying to pull that familiar fake confidence out of thin air when everything inside her screamed to run, hide, and vanish off the face of this ruined planet, nor did she glance up when Dodge stood.

Ruby was correct in every aspect, except one.A deep washout laid a mile out from the farmstead on the west side, disguised by long golden prairie grass and blended in so well with the otherwise flat ground that when Dodge was busy casting hand signals to Mateo, he had fallen face first into the sudden sandy dirt with a thump, almost choking on his tobacco chew in the process.Mateo laughed so loudly from where he crept through the tall grass lowly for only a second before clasping both his hands over his lips to force the laughter back down, both for the fear of getting caught by whoever may be in the farmstead and also for the fear that Dodge might rip his head off to avoid self embarrassment.Coughing lowly to rid the sandy dust which now housed itself in Dodge&rsqu
Searching the Wild Lovely West 18. Everyone Was Gone
“What the hell do you mean?!” Dodge roared, his oak green eyes flaring into a emerald whiskey in the light of the golden sun that had started to hide behind the horizon, people of all kinds still busied themselves in the streets of Dodge City, and Mateo watched the scene in front of him unfold with wide eyes; his cheeks pinched pink from the sourness of his last few pieces of lemon candy.Thomas didn’t reply, fixing his spectacles, and returning his gaze elsewhere; together they stood outside the saloon, not knowing that Ruby watched from afar in curiosity while she went about her business, and only a few people stared at the Reaper when they passed.“Where is she?!” Mateo’s heart plummeted to his boot clad feet as Dodge yelled again and rushed forward so quickly it was a blur, grabbing
Searching the Wild Lovely West 19. Monty's Town
Cassidy was only sure about a few things in life…Like, for example, one needs food and drink to survive, Kansas has the very best sunsets, people are often sweet to the face and rude to the back, guns can be both good and bad, and she knew for sure that whiskey was best enjoyed with steak.But one thing she didn’t understand was how ignorant someone could be when they were drunk on arrogance.Words really could make an impact apparently.“Hand me ‘nother, Cody,” Silas drunkenly slurred, moving his hand quickly enough that the piss colored liquid swirled up and over the edge only to land onto the wooden floor boards of some run down saloon, but no one said anything to the n

Thomas knew God would do what he thought best as the Earth is God's own to control, so he put all his trust and hope into prayers, confession, and the handheld cross he always kept in his pocket for comfort.Cassidy was trouble, Thomas knew it, but she was his best friend and basically only friend. He knew she would come back to Dodge City in a few days, not fearing too much for the Viper as sometimes she would up and disappear for days at a time before returning as if nothing happened because more often than not, nothing ever did happen.If that strange Dodge Moore didn't approve of Thomas' methods - so be it. Who was he to judge the way Thomas went about life and why did Dodge think he knew Cassidy
Searching the Wild Lovely West 21. Wantin' That Drink
Cold water droplets cascaded down her ivory breasts, pausing at the rosy buds before falling ever so delicately upon her thighs like how honey might drip down a slate of marble only to fall short of itself, becoming something that represented sweetness but tasted like stone; ripples echoed into the water that was losing its temperature every waking second.Time had become nonexistent for Cassidy ever since she had sacrificed herself to rid the Earthly scum known as Silas, seconds become minutes, minutes were hours, and hours felt like days… But she had made a deal, one she had to stick with. She pondered about Mateo, hoping the young boy would forgive her since she vanished without a word, about Thomas and imagined how worried he probably was, about Ade and if he was safe on his new job, about drunken Wayne and if he was head deep in a barrel of beer, and

“Did I say beer?” Silas spat, clicking the hammer of his pistol back and letting it carelessly aim at the poor bartender; the short, fat, and bald man sweating profusely as he stuttered an apology and Cassidy held back her grimace.The saloon had open doors, probably to let the storm from last night be aired out from the vicinity, and people made them scarce when Silas showed his scarred face; no one wanted to end up dead like the three innocents from just three days ago and Cassidy had made sure to pay her price in self inflicted pain for their souls though nothing could compare to the hurt those innocents families - her wrists and thighs spelled out ‘sorry’ like spilled etches of needle shaped traces.“One whiskey,” The bartender slide a shot glass in front of Silas who just sighed, p
Searching the Wild Lovely West 23. Too Damn Late
And arm candy, she was.After Cassody was shown around to the town's people, who only listened and admired her thanks to Silas' looming threat and waving pistol, she was finally relieved from her heeled boot covered feet as Silas pushed her down into one of the front row wooden chairs.It squeaked from age or the heavy pale pink fabric that clung to Cassidy much to her dismay, or perhaps it was both; she didn't care, in fact her thoughts were only trained on three things: her friends, the deal, and if the two would clash against each other.She already knew the answer.Dodge spent all day watching his goddess from afar, only pausing to get cleaned up and take a very unrestful nap when Mateo practically f
Searching the Wild Lovely West 24. Hold On
Dodge couldn’t help but stare…How had this happened so quickly?Everything had just happened so damn quickly.Cassidy’s once beautiful blush pink dress with lace ruffles now ripped, her corset showing boldly and stained with crimson, curls undone and scattered, and only her skirt seemed roughly intact; was he too late? He could’ve- No, wanted to prevent this, but he was too late.“Dodge-” Cassidy’s voice could hardly be heard against the silence of the night; it held a softness Dodge wasn’t used to on anyone and he could compare
