Noah snorted. “As I said, it’s not the first time I’ve received a

threat like that. Ray and I don’t even bother to keep count now.”

Tommy raised his head. “Has anyone tried to hurt you?”

“Once or twice. I called the sheriff. He encouraged the

perpetrators to back off. It all calmed down.”

“I haven’t had it aimed at me before.” He laid his head back on

Noah’s shoulder because that was where he wanted to be.

“I know, baby. But just let it roll off your back. Half the time with

folks, it’s just pissin’ in the wind.”

Tommy appreciated the way Noah was trying to calm him down.

“I couldn’t bear it if he tried to attack you.”

“Wade Childes is a small-time bully just like his daddy. All

mouth, but when it comes to it, he’s yella.”

Someone coughed behind Noah. Reluctantly, Tommy raised his

head and looked over Noah’s shoulder.

Luke gave them both an apologetic look. “Childes was one of the

men trying to force Lil to stop working with us last year.”

“That’s right, he was,” Simon agreed, coming out of the barn.

“Him and Stevenson. Didn’t hear no more about it after that.”

Warily, Tommy looked between the two men. They were flicking

glances at each other even as they aimed their discussion at Noah.

Oblivious, Noah frowned. “I didn’t know about that. Can’t say as

I’m surprised, though.”

“Chuck said Benson was gonna report it to the sheriff,” Simon

said. “You ought to make your own complaint, Tom.”

“What’s the point if it’s just empty threats? I’d rather just forget

about it.”

Luke shook his head. “You call Canes. If trouble is starting all

over again, then I’m not having Canes say we shoulda reported it

sooner.”

“It’s just one man mouthing off,” Tommy protested.

“Call him,” Luke said sternly.

Tommy looked at Noah for help, but the pastor was nodding too.

“It makes sense, Tom. If it was a drunk mouthing off, it would be

one thing, but Childes made a specific threat against you.”
