They got back to town and Jessica took over the horses in front of the sheriff's office. The excitement of the day finally caught up with her and exhaustion washed over her as she led the horses to the stables. Monty stood waiting, leaning against the doorjamb. You look exhausted, he said gently, taking the reins for Chase's horse.

Its been a long day. Townsfolk who want to lynch the criminal themselves. Bellisario nuzzled his mistress' cheek as if trying to make it better. Jessica reached up to rub under his forelock. They beg for a sheriff and then want to dole out justice themselves. She shook her head tiredly and led the stallion into the stables. She clipped him to cross ties and untacked him, before leading him back outside and tying him up to a post. She started washing the dried sweat from his coat.
