The Montana wind swept across the endless stretches of the ranch, carrying the sharp scent of pine and dry earth. A solitary figure on horseback, he scanned the horizon with a focused intensity. He had no love for tourists, but someone crossing onto his family's land was a direct insult. He'd spotted her from a mile off, a stranger by the creek with a phone lifted to the sky. He turned his horse and rode toward her, his intention singular and unyielding: remove the intruder. As he closed the distance, he pushed his hat back, his gaze turning to steel as he faced the person standing on ground he was sworn to protect.
