"Don't take your anger at Cody out on Jesse or Rico. Go for a ride, or we can go for a walk, but give yourself time to calm down."

Morgan knew she was right. She recognized when she was about to blow, and just now, she'd been as close to being arrested for assault as she'd ever been in her life.

The sheriff pulled his car up to the house. He walked over to the gate, opened it for the I.D. van, then closed it after Carrie drove through.

Ryland smiled graciously. “Michael, do you have time to stop in for a cup of coffee? I put on a fresh pot when I saw you driving down to the barn."

He took off his hat and followed her up to the door, turning to see whether Morgan was coming in as well. Morgan had already started to the barn, so he shrugged and went in to visit and enjoy some of Ryland's wonderful coffee.

Morgan walked into the barn and grabbed Somerset's halter.

She stalked past Jesse, who was finishing up with her sweeping.

Jesse swept the last of the dirt into the dustpan and dumped it into the trash barrel. The broom and pan hung on pegs next to the halters, and after she put them away, she reached up and grabbed Barney's halter. Jesse passed Morgan as her boss brought Somerset out and tied him to a ring. She sensed the tension in the air, and wasn't sure whether it was directed at her or at something else.

When she brought Barney out and tied him next to Somerset, Barney turned his hindquarters to the big bay and pushed him into Morgan, who was brushing him on the other side.

Morgan angrily walked in front of Somerset, untied Barney and moved him three rings away. She retied the rope and went back to brushing Somerset without a word to Jesse.

Jesse leaned on Barney's hindquarters and studied Morgan, wondering what exactly was going on.
