Chapter 30

Beau Harcourt sulked in his tent, drinking whiskey to dull the pain of the wound and the greater pain of his humiliation.

He’d folded after the deacon drew down on him. He hadn’t even tried to make a play.

The raw whiskey burned Harcourt’s throat. He watched a white moth flutter around the oil lamp, playing with fire.

His gun hand hadn’t been injured.

Damn it, he should’ve tried.

Then he remembered.

“I’ll take the other one off at the wrist, Beau.”

Harcourt watched the moth and his eyes glazed. Growling like an animal, he tore the deacon apart, limb by limb . . . but only in his pain-tangled mind.
