A Lethal Lady

Chapter Epilogue



Zisa was barking non-stop, tiring Tom out with her anguished whining. He was worried enough as it was, for his she-wolf come in and make things worse with her constant barking.

The she-wolf paced back and forth in the living room, while he kept tapping his boot on the floor, looking at his she-wolf and getting even more stressed. At one point, the she-wolf stopped barking and circling, raised her ears high in the air ar looked exactly at the door.

The sheriff did the same, looking up... seconds later, the Jesey's wife left the room laden with dirty blankets.

-Vll go get some more water.

Tom rolls his eyes, as the she-wolf continues to pace back and forth. And she screeches on and on.

Zisa, that's enough, that's enough.” The bitch looks at him, but decides to ignore him. “For God's sake, I'm more worried about you than ever,” Tom stands up and opens the door to the exit of the house. Get out, you're not helping anything he The she-wolf, seeing the door open, growls, and lies down on the floor... she looks at him with those greenish eyes that captivated Tom so much, which makes him curse inwardly.

Fine, but you keep quiet. I don't want to hear you squeal anymore,” he points his finger, to which the she-wolf bares her teeth. Damn you, you're a snooty one.

suddenly, a baby's cry echoes through the house. Tom looks up and the bitch drops to all fours.

-She’s born! -exclaims the sheriff, taking a few steps to the door.

Both he and Zisa were waiting...

Since Rouse showed up at his ranch, he never left again. That morning when he gave her the news that she was expecting his child, it almost gave her a heart attack, but from the excitement. It was an enormous joy that they were both going to become fathers.

At first, she was worried because she was still wanted, but Tom suggested she stay at the ranch. No one was visiting, so it was safe. The farthest she could get was to Joy's house, where she often visited the old man when Tom had to work.

As a result, Joy hardly ever visited the town. Because of Olivia's visits. It was a joy for him to have her back, even if he did express it, it was evident that he was happy for her return.

it was long months that Tom had the opportunity to watch his son grow in his mother's womb, it was 6 months that he hz to enjoy his wife in state. Unfortunately, he could not take Olivia as his wife, he wished to do so; but she refused. Understandably, if the records showed that he was married to her, he would be hanged. So the two of them settled for staying together, and in truth, that was more than enough, even though she was not his legal wife, Rouse was his wife. The sheriff looks down and looks at his grey she-wolf, in 6 months she had grown a lot. And it turned out that, instead of following him everywhere, the she-wolf became attached to Rouse. She followed him everywhere, and besides that, she was very jealous.

She was born, Zisa.

The she-wolf raises her ears as if confirming her words...

Jesey opens the door, and sees the father standing before him. Then he smiles at him.

“You have a daughter, Tom.

Daughter?

Come in.

He didn't think twice about entering the bedroom to see his wife lying on the bed, with new sheets and a tired expressior on her face. She was holding a tiny baby in her arms, rocking her lovingly. Rouse looks up, smiling sweetly at her presenc She rarely did this, despite being a mother, she was still very haughty.

We're not going to eat you, sheriff.

50 we've had a girl.

-More women for this house.

-I think they're going to drive me crazy,’ he replies, settling in beside her.

When he sees the little girl, his eyes look at her with admiration. She was perfect, her skin was whitish and her eyes were quite clear, even though she was barely holding them open.

-she looks just like you,” Tom says, taking the girl's hand.

-I think someone else wants to meet the new addition to the family. Come Zisa, come to Mama.

The she-wolf approached them, sniffing first her owner, and then the little girl in her arms. Slowly she gained confidence and began to lick the little girls feet. Both Rouse and Tom smiled, he liked it. They would have no trouble with the she-w and the little girl.

she liked it.

“I can see that.

just at that moment of family reunion, Olivia's room was filled by Joy's presence. When she sees the little baby, she takes off her hat and enters the room.

Finally, she’s born," she says, standing a short distance away. Jesey tells me it's a girl, I knew she was going to be as prett as her mum.

-I thought, she can call you grandfather. You've been there for me throughout my pregnancy, I don't have a problem with that.

Vil breed a good horse for her, Belze got one of my mares pregnant, and as soon as she’s born, I'll breed him for her.

“I think it will be a beast that you will breed,” says the father.

The best horse in the region, he gives the best offspring.

Rouse smiles as she listens to him talk all excited, she knew he was going to like the idea of being the grandfather of her baby. But speaking of which, she hadn't thought of what to call her.

Hey, sheriff, what are we going to call this little lady? -Tom looks at the little girl and thinks.

it was a good question, in all that time, he and Rouse hadn't thought of what to call the baby.

“What do you say we call her, Rosi.

Rosi? -The blonde looks at her, and thinks her daughter looks like Rosi. I like Rosi, Rosi Wesley it is.

The sheriff's daughter, the old man adds.

“Was she born yet?

Lauren's voice filled the room, the blonde runs to her sister and the little girl as a toddler. She was accompanied by Harry the two were in a relationship, and as far as anyone knew they were very serious.

The blonde stayed in town to manage the hotel, and she was better at it than her mother. Harry was still Tom's right hanc man, unlike the sheriff, the blond moved to the hotel to be closer to his fiancée and the needs of the town. Since Tom car home every night.

she’s beautiful, Sis. -What will you call her?

Rosi.

“I like her, Rosi.

The young woman takes the child in her arms and rocks her as if she were a doll. Rouse looks at her sister and still can't believe she has a family, a crazy one, but she has a family.

She was still a fugitive, ready to be hanged. Her husband was a sheriff, she had a sister by another mother, a grandfather who didn't carry her blood, and to top it all off, a pet that turned out to be a wild wolf.

If that wasn't bliss, then what was bliss? Life gave him a second chance, to do things the right way. And that's what he intended to do, starting with his daughter. She would not go through what she and her sister went through. Rosi was goin to be a loved child, and even a little overprotected.

The blonde looks at Tom's proud expression and suspects that the man was going to be very jealous of this child.

But that was okay, if he was doing it for love, it was okay...
