Chapter 3
“Why are you here?” Jax asked.
James needed to come up with a believable story – he wasn’t going to tell Jax the truth – and faking being out of breath because of the blow to the abdomen bought him the much need time. “There is nothing left for me – I mean us – in the outside world. My wife left me a year ago, I lost my job, I killed a man and found myself on the whiteboard-… I mean the bounty board. Thanks to that, my son is now also paying for my sins. Our lives out there are ruined. I figured we-…” Before James could finish his sentence Jax delivered yet another punch straight into his stomach, forcing James to his knees and hands.
“We can play like this all day long. I got time.” Jax walked round to James’ side and kicked his face with as much force as he could muster, knocking James over. “Or you can tell me the truth. Your call.”
James turned over and got on all four again. “I told you, there is nothing out there for us.” He stuck to his story.
“See, there’s a simple reason I don’t believe you. Your horses… Not the horses of common folk. So let’s start with something easier. How did you two get these horses?”
