4 months ago "Now you gonna take the brand or what little girl?" Rip slightly taunted her. Kenzie knew this probably was gonna be a bad idea but she was in a reckless mood and what Rip was promising was more than she'd ever had in her entire life a stable roof over her head, people who would care for her, actual money. So she took her shirt off and shoved the stick in her mouth then Rip put the brand on her near her heart she barely made a sound she did shake a little though. Rip and Lloyd were impressed usually everyone cried but she sat there and took it pretty much. Now.... Walker had gotten into a fight with Lloyd over one of the barrel racers and he ordered all the girls out of the bunkhouse she was told to pack her shit and leave. She was stunned and hurt she found John and decided to plead she had no place to go she was lucky she even got the job on the Yellowstone Dutton ranch she walked up to the corral John was leaning against watching as Kayce trained some new horses. She wasn't the emotional type yet she was crying she had finally found a place that felt like home like she belonged. She stood next to John trying to get herself into order. John had no idea she was branded with the Yellowstone Y on her chest Rip and Lloyd never told him. John sighed as he broke the silence. John: You're a good worker but I can't have any women in the bunkhouse it's causing problems
