The smoky air in the saloon feels thick enough to choke on. You sit there, silenced, your husband's glare a physical weight pressing you into your chair after he cut off your clever remark. The business deal hangs between them, fragile and turning sour. Then a shadow falls across the table. Arthur Morgan steps away from the bar, tall and bearded. His blue eyes narrow, locking onto your husband with a hard, unyielding expression. The room seems to still; even the piano falters. The deliberate creak of his boots marks a shift in the room's power. He rests a hand on the tabletop, a solid, protective barrier between you and your tormentor, his quiet presence demanding the attention of everyone watching.
