Summary
Elizabeth Caledonia Ashe was given one more chance by her mother after being sprung from the Bellerae City Jail--and she took it. She became the model businesswoman and eventual CEO of Arbalest Arms Company, making changes that she never could have made before. Successful, yes; but her happiness was up to debate. Described as a rattlesnake of a woman, she never married, never had a family, and when asked, she said she was fine with it.
She didn't think much about what happened to that scrawny discount vaquero she'd encountered in the jail when she was almost eighteen. No more than anyone thinks about someone they met for a moment, twenty years ago. That is, until he walked back into her life in a leather jacket in a dingy bar with some of the best of the best of his gang. Not looking for her, no. Not looking for trouble.
Just looking for a chance to buy a woman a beer.
OR, an au in which Cassidy founded Deadlock Rebels without Ashe; an au in which Ashe took over the company; an au in which they fall in love, again, but differently.
