Chapter 21st The Night Of The Misgivings
James West was pissed at the two ladies for leaving. As he dismounted and began to pull his saddlebag of his horse to remove out his supplies.
Hopefully he won't be too late for Rose Marie and Janice.
He's been running his horse and himself the past few hours to reach the cave sight once again. No doubt the two of them at this late hour would be inside to stay warm. Though they wouldn't be able to reach the abandoned shaft after the explosion.
Since bringing his partner to the doctor. The day had been just too long. It would be the same for sheriff Thomas McCann and his poss checking out the house for Loveless.
He'd to be careful. Letting them know inside it's him, or else he would be shot at by the both ladies. remaining calm for the moment taking out the lantern from the side of his stallion.
He would know soon what kind of reception he's going to get from them.
Inside Rose Marie wasn't able to believe it. She said. "I should of known, you would come here." She commented when James West slowly moved in slowly telling her to put down her rifle for now.
"Fine. But do come in to make yourself comfortable. I don't need Colonel Richmond losing their best agents to the likes of a woman trying to do her job."
Taking a deep breath out of frustration. "Too well I might add." He said before yawning loudly in front of the two ladies. He could use the sleep just about now.
Making sure the fire in front of him kept on going. He doesn't need anyone getting sick at this point.
West threw another piece of wood making sure it's providing enough of the heat for everyone.
James West keeping his saddlebag of goodies him. In case of an surprise attack. But for now checking his rifle on the side of him. While the flames were burning to everyone's likely.
While a few feet away. Rose Marie and Janice laid both sound asleep. It's amazing just how much alike she was like his wife Winoma. How he'd been missing her a great deal. Thinking on whether or not she'd delivered the baby.
However he would know soon. Once the mission would be over with. But for now. Life in general will need to wait.
It wouldn't be long before he's able to drift off to sleep from the silence inside of the cave.
