CONSEQUENCES -Chapter 3

For Bill, Nathan and Alien, as well as several other people who were now following the scene near the police station, it seemed that everything had taken hours, it took time to pass, as if it were a long time, dragging on between fear and the inability to help in the moment. , laying everyone down with their hearts in their hands.

Nathan saw Elizabeth, getting very close to Newton, dismounted like a sergeant, stroked Newton who gladly accepted it and what left Nathan with his mouth open because he knew that his horse only accepted affection when close to him, she tied the rope to the horn from newton's cell and shortly after she mounted newton and rode back to town pulling sergeant with robert pale.

Robert apologized and thanked him several times on the way to town, but Elizabeth had a hard look on her face and warned that she wasn't going to talk to him now. Standing at the door of the police station, Nathan helped Elizabeth to get off the newton and tied the horse there, he saw Elizabeth untie the sergeant, say something softly to the horse, which responded with two movements of the paws and a neigh, and looking hard at Robert, he ordered down and the sergeant's reins entered him, ordering him to guard and feed the horse. Robert took a step towards the livery leading sergeant, head down, face pale and neck all red demonstrating which direction he was in, when he looked back, stopping and said:

- Miss Thorton, I'm so sorry!

Robert was never so afraid, her eyes seemed to boil with anger, and with her hands on her hips she said:

- Robert! I told you I'm not going to talk now, do your job and I want you at my house in the afternoon after you get some rest. I'll give you a minute to do this or it will be even worse for you.

And everyone saw Robert, slinking away with his face down to the floor as quickly as he could, he had already realized what he had done wrong, and that it could end badly with him hurt and worst of all he had put Mrs Thorton in danger, for she would never leave him alone. Now your chip drops. He who promised in every way to protect her put her in great danger, she could have fallen and died, now more than ever his shame was so much that it took care of him.

- You have no sense Elizabeth? Taking risks like that because of that kid or was it because of that stupid horse? Should you learn to behave like a lady? Lucas said that he came running after seeing all those dramas.

Bill looked from Lucas to Elizabeth, who was now facing Newton giving the animal a caress, at that moment Bill saw the Thatcher flame still alive inside her, that's when a firm and cold voice from Elizabeth spoke:

- I would do it all over again for him and that horse, maybe I would think about whether or not it would be worth taking some risk if it was to save you Lucas.

- You are my girlfriend Elizabeth, act like it!

- I'm not, never was and never will be your girlfriend, Lucas Bouchard. will be able to get closer to me or my son.

Bill looked at Nathan, he had a look of victory, and for him he would already do the document now...

- Elizabeth! It's because of that one, Lucas shouted without completing the sentence.

She glared at him in her best, most terrifying teacher glare, causing him to choke on his own words and stop his questions and accusations midway through. Seeing a losing battle there, he decided to turn his back and march straight to his bar.
