A US Marshal had been summoned to take charge and he had already organized other lawmen to join with him to ride to the Callender enclave and deal with it. Cassie Marchant had given explicit directions where the place could be found and the official law force had already left.
Marchant was directed to the doctor’s office where he was reunited with his recovering daughter. His visit was lengthy as Cassie gave her story in great detail and as Tyrell stayed away initially her telling made Marchant realize what she had been through and how Will Tyrell had found her, dealt with her injuries and brought her across country to Madison Springs.
Roderick Marchant quickly realized the feelings his strong willed daughter had for the quiet man who had rescued and cared for her. She did not hold back on her feelings for him and Marchant understood there was little he could do about the situation. When he eventually met with Tyrell and saw and spoke with the man he knew his daughter had chosen well. Tyrell, he saw, was a man with character and also powerful feelings for his daughter. An unusually taciturn man, Tyrell knew what he wanted and had no doubt in his mind that Cassie had to stay in his life. If he returned to the high country without her there would be a part of him lacking.
As for Cassie she made it clear to both Tyrell and her father that making a home in the high country, with Tyrell and the wild horses he coveted, was simply what she wanted.
They would be married once they were both recovered from their wounds. In the meantime Roderick Marchant offered aid in the building of a new home for them both. A way of making sure they got what they wanted and in his own mind some offering to pay for the foolishness he had garnered by the foolish wager he had made with Callender.
It took time but Tyrell and Cassie were young enough to have that time and the patience before they returned to the High Country and the promise of their future...
