The first week had passed, and they had fallen into a normal routine. Gwendolyn and Bradley would get up and make breakfast together before he took off for work. She would take care of the household chores while he was gone, and then start dinner before he returned. They spent their evenings talking about their day and discussing anything he might have heard about the rustlers. Another ranch had been targeted, and over a dozen head of cattle had been taken. The Lambert workers were worried they would be next, since they had the most cattle around now. Even though the Lamberts had hired on extra cowboys in an effort to keep from being vulnerable, everyone was on pins and needles waiting for the attack they feared was coming.

He also told her about his old cases and what he did to solve them. He would give her scenarios and ask her how she would handle each one, giving her either constructive criticism, or commendations when she answered right. As time passed, she learned more and more of what it took to be an excellent Pinkerton agent. He even took her out shooting a few times, showing her how to handle a gun if the need should ever arise.

Even though Gwendolyn didn’t mind playing the role of the wife taking care of the home, she was restless being confined to the house. With it being Sunday, Bradley finally had a day off, which meant he could take her into town.

She entered the living room where he was still sleeping. She moved over and bent down beside him. She gently shook him on the shoulder, saying, “I was thinking since it’s Sunday, we should go into town for church service.”

Bradley rolled over and looked at her through groggy eyes. “This is my one day to sleep in.”

“I know that, and you’ve gotten to sleep longer than normal. I just think it would be good for us to go, not to mention we could ask around after service and see if anyone has new information about the last cattle heist.”

Bradley let out a long sigh as he sat up and swung his legs over the edge of the couch. “I suppose you’re right. It would be smart to do that. There’ll be people at church who we don’t have regular access to.”

Gwendolyn knew he was right, but she wondered if that was the only reason he was willing to go with her. For her, church had always been a refuge—a time where she could refocus her attention on her relationship with God each week. She’d always left feeling refreshed, and she hoped that she would feel the same at the church in Rockwood Springs.

“I’m going to let Reginald out for a few minutes before we leave for town,” Gwendolyn explained as she stood up.

“I’ll go put on some clean clothes,” Bradley said, standing up and stretching. He brushed past her, his bare chest grazing her arm as his earthy scent tickled her nose. The combination caused a stirring in the pit of her stomach.
