They arrived at the abandoned factory to find Lady Catherine and Miss Evelyn huddled together, the candle from the previous night still flickering weakly. The sight of them, safe and unharmed, brought a moment of relief to Alex’s tightly wound nerves. He helped his mother down from the horse, her legs unsteady, and she was immediately enveloped in Lady Catherine’s embrace.
Miss Evelyn looked up at Alex with a mix of admiration and gratitude. “You found her,” she murmured, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears.
Alex nodded, his eyes never leaving Lady Catherine. “We need to get some distance before they realize we’ve gone,” he said, his voice gruff with emotion.
John took charge, his years of experience in the town’s underbelly shining through. “We’ll rest here for the day, keep hidden. At midnight, when the town’s had its fill of whiskey and the night has swallowed their sins, we’ll make our move.”
The women nodded, their fear palpable but their determination unyielding. They knew that the daylight hours would be their best chance to heal and prepare for the night’s daring escape. The factory, a silent witness to their plight, offered a brief respite from the horrors of Dusty Crown.
As Lady Catherine tended to Lady Margaret’s bruises and offered her water, Alex couldn’t help but notice something unexpected—his mother’s stomach was slightly swollen. The revelation hit him like a sledgehammer, the implications of her condition weighing heavily on his shoulders. He took a step closer, his hand reaching out tentatively to touch her rounded belly. “Mom,” he whispered, his voice cracking. “What happened?”
Her eyes met his, filled with a mix of sorrow and resignation. “I was with child, Alex,” she murmured, her voice barely audible. “I didn’t know how to tell you.”
Alex felt the world tilt on its axis. The implications of her words hit him like a sledgehammer. “Mrs. Winnie bought me because she knew of my lineage,” she continued, her voice shaking. “She thought to breed me, to produce offspring of noble blood to sell to the highest bidder.” The thought of his mother, a woman of grace and dignity, being used in such a vile manner made his stomach turn.
He clenched his fists, trying to hold back the tide of anger that threatened to overwhelm him. “Every day for two months,” she whispered, her eyes haunted by the memories of her ordeal. “Men, one after the other, until I conceived. It was ... it was a living hell.”
Alex’s mind reeled as he tried to process her words. The thought of his mother being subjected to such degradation was almost too much to bear. He swallowed hard, his eyes never leaving hers. “We’ll get her for this,” he promised, his voice low and deadly. “All of them.”
John laid a firm hand on Alex’s shoulder, his gaze equally as intense. “First things first, son,” he said, his voice a steady anchor in the storm of Alex’s emotions. “We’ve got to get these women to safety. We can’t risk going back for a fight without a plan. We’ve got to be smart about this.”
Alex nodded, his jaw set in a firm line. The anger in his eyes hadn’t abated, but the logic in John’s words resonated within him. The need for justice was a ravenous beast, but it had to be sated strategically.
John turned to him, his grip firm. “You ain’t alone in this, Alex,” he said, his voice gruff with emotion. “I’ve seen enough of this town’s ugliness to last a lifetime. I’m with you, to the end of this road.”
Alex nodded, the weight of his decision settling heavily upon him. “I want to get them all,” he said, his voice low and deadly. “Nobody can do to my mom and my girl like this!.”
The sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the town as the group made their final preparations. The factory grew quieter as the women rested, their strength slowly returning, and John and Alex plotted their next move.
As midnight approached, the tension grew palpable, the silence of the factory a stark contrast to the distant sounds of Dusty Crown’s nightlife. John checked their supplies and weapons, his eyes gleaming with the promise of vengeance in the candlelight.
They waited for the town to fall into its drunken slumber, the noises of the night growing more muted with every passing hour. Finally, John gave a curt nod. “It’s time,” he murmured.
They moved through the deserted streets like phantoms, the moon casting a pale light on their path. The buildings leaned in as if whispering secrets of their own, the shadows hiding the truths of Dusty Crown’s dark heart. Alex felt his anger coil tighter with every step, his thoughts consumed by the images of his mother’s suffering.
As they reached the outskirts of town, the silence grew thicker, the only sound the occasional whinny of a horse or the rustle of a tumbleweed rolling across the ground. The air was cooler here, the stench of the saloon and stables replaced by the scent of sagebrush and dust. They had chosen their route carefully, avoiding the main roads that were often patrolled by the Nightshade Syndicate’s men.
John turned to Alex and the three women, his eyes reflecting the flickering light of the stars above. “Keep moving,” he said, his voice low and urgent. “I’ve got some unfinished business back in town.”
Alex looked at him, his brow furrowed. “John, we’re in this together,” he argued. “We can’t leave you behind. You will have a better life if you come with us”
John’s grip tightened on his gun belt, his expression a blend of resolve and sadness. “You go on ahead,” he said, his voice firm. “I’ve got debts to settle, lives to make right. This town took everything from me, and now it’s time I took something back.”
