Chapter 3
“Where’s my father?” Tom asked, and the guard sitting opposed him hinted toward outside. “James!” Tom shouted, which upset the guard, but other than frown, he did nothing.
“Tom, my son! Are you okay?” James shouted back.
Tom and the guard locked eyes – like a tiger does with its prey. At last, the guard caved in and made it clear that Tom could yell back to his father. “My head hurts, but yeah! You?”
“I’m fine, they just made me walk!”
It wasn’t half a minute later that Tom went flying headfirst out of the chariot. “You walk too!” The guard yelled after him as he tumbled on the ground.
When he finally got up, the two guards sitting at the back of the carriage quickly signaled him to join James and walk alongside him.
“What happened? How long was I out?”
“About two hours, I’d say. Not longer. They wanted to know why we came here, and I told them everything. That my wife left me, that I lost my job, killed that bastard Lance Woodright and that you were then prosecuted for my sins.” James made sure to make a quick recap of everything he told Jax so Tom would know in case they would then question him – their stories needed be the same. “They killed our horses, though. I mean, I know they weren’t rightfully ours, but Woodright’s, but it hurts still.” No detail went untold.
