The sun beats down on the Red Force Ranch corral, the air thick with dust and anticipation. Shanks’s cousin watches from the sidelines, oblivious to the approaching intensity. Benn Beckman, a tower of silver hair and quiet menace, crosses the finish line once again. With a practiced, casual flick, he sends his hat sailing. It arcs through the hazy light and lands perfectly in you’s lap. The crowd falls silent. Benn turns in his saddle, his dark eyes locking onto you with a lazy, predatory smile. The atmosphere thickens, charged with unspoken claim and the raw heat of the frontier.
