Chapter Twenty-Five

Gaines sat at his desk and thought a while after Erskine left. They used to be friends, but then Erskine joined Stoll. Gaines, although he hadn’t joined, hadn’t opposed the man, either. But now that Clint Adams was in town, and intends to oppose him, maybe it was time for the lawman to start taking his badge seriously. That was why he’d gone to boot hill that morning, to do his job, for a change.

He decided that the best thing for him to do was to present himself to Adams as an ally, and see where things went from there.

He grabbed his hat, left his office and headed for the hotel.

“Okay,” she said, later, as they rested side-by-side, “now I’ve had a religious experience. Where did you learn to eat pussy like that? Most men wouldn’t even think of it.”

“Is that what you call it?” he asked. “Eating it? I like that.”

“Well, yeah,” she said, with feeling, “so did I, except it almost killed me!”

“I think it just made you come alive,” Clint said. “You’ve got to get away from that compound.”

“I know it,” she said, “but he won’t let me.”

“Stoll?”

She nodded.

“He doesn’t allow people to leave him once they’re inside,” she said.

“Is he afraid they’ll talk?” Clint asked. “Tell secrets?”

“Probably.”

“What would he say if he knew you were here with me?”

“He’d probably kill me.”

“Literally?”

“Well, no,” she said, “I didn’t mean really kill me ... but then, he did have poor Aggie strung up.”

“And what did she do to deserve that?” Clint asked. “Nobody’s told me that, yet.”

“She defied him,” Brenda said. “That’s all it took.”

“What about the tea lady?” he asked.

“Who?”

“Carol Holby, from the tea shop?” Clint asked. “She joined, and then left, didn’t she?”

“She was hardly there a day,” Brenda said. “I don’t know what it was about her, but Stoll approached her the first day about coming to his bed, and she bolted. “

“Without any taking any secrets.”

“Without anything,” Brenda said.

“And he let her go?”

“He thinks he’ll get her back,” Brenda said, sitting up and reaching for her dress. “Like he thinks eventually he’ll have the whole town.”

She stood up and pulled her dress on.

“Where are you going?” he asked.

“I have to get back before he notices I’m gone.”

He propped himself up on an elbow and watched her get the dress on straight.

“I’m going to get this town out from under him, Brenda,” Clint said. “Can I count on your support?”

She looked at him over her shoulder.

“I guess that depends on what you want me to do.”

“I’m not sure,” he said. “I guess I’ll just have to let you know when the time comes.”

“Then I suppose I’ll have to make up my mind then, won’t I?” she asked.

She leaned on the bed, kissed him, then headed for the door. She opened it, turned and looked at him.

“You have to be careful,” she said. “He’ll send his disciples after you, led by a man named Erskine.”

“Erskine,” he repeated. “I’ll remember. What do you know about him?”

“Only that he used to be a friend of the sheriff’s,” she said.
