Cowboy Kind of Love

Old face

RIP POV

I slowed down coming across some buffalo on the other side of the fence. Two guys were there so I rode a bit up and yelled at them. When they came closer one was an ol timer and one, one was someone I never wanted to fucking see again.

"Sporting club running buffalo now?"

"Sporting club ain't runnin shit no more."

"Yeah well, whose are those."

"Don't matter as long as they're not yours."

"You got permission to run them things here?"

"No, just decided today I'd run some buffalo across a field for no reason."

"Yeah, well I don't want my cattle getting brucellosis from them fucking things."

"Keep your cattle on your side of the fence." I looked over at James, stupid little fucker. I didn't like his 8 years ago and I didn't now. Shoulda took his ass to the train station then. Only reason John had me not was because of Alexis.

"You oughta tell your boy to watch the bass in his voice when he speaks to me."

"Boy?" He got off the horse and I dismounted Cinnamon. If the bastard wanted to fight now, I'd fight his ass and Alexis wasn't here to stop me. James hopped the fence and I immediately punched him knocking him back into the barbwire fence and tossed his ass back over it to the other side.

"Hey!" I looked up as a gun cocked.

"I'll blow your shit for brains all over this field."

"Then fucking do it."

"Reserve agent, Livestock Association. I will shoot you where you stand. Put that fucking pistol down." Ryan said coming next to me.

"Reserve agents? Duttons are still running that scam?"

"We don't know you."

"You wouldn't but your boss does. Tell him Wade Morro said hello. We'll see each other again, I'm sure."

"You better hope I never see you again."

"Next time fight me fair."

"Shit, I'll fight you fair. Get off your horse."

"I'll save that for a rainy day."

"I need proof those are brucellosis-free." Ryan said

"If your man enough come get it. Come on." He said turning away. James stopped looking at me.

"Tell Alexis I said hi."

"Say her name again and I'll shoot your ass."

"James!" He smirked at me walking off.

"Motherfucker." I kicked the fence post as Colby walked up with my horse's lead.

"Why would they leave them there, they are gonna tear that down."

"I know."

"How's he know Alexis?"

"Asshole used to work here 8 years ago."

"He got the brand."

"Fuck no if he did I would have killed him."

"What he do to her."

"Nothing I don't do but when I saw them me and John fired him and kicked his ass out. Let's go." After we got back we handled what we needed to at the ranch. We were starting to clean up when Kayce walked in.

"Need some help tomorrow."

"What's going on?"

"Got bout 300 horses we need to move out, get em' to the auction."
