My voice caught in my throat, disabling my ability to speak as he leaned languidly on the wooden railing of the veranda. A small, secretive smile quir...ed his tawny lips as he watched me, making it difficult for me to look up, and I stood squirming under his gaze, wanting to remark on how rude it was for him to stare. “Come here, girl,” he commanded suddenly. I didn’t move, too frightened by his abrupt order, and stood staring at him mutely. “I said, come here!” His demand was again bellowed. Their elders had told them of such creatures that used to loam over the rivers and snatch children who weren't careful away, but that they were long extinct from this land.

She answered, "I'm flattered that you look." She gave me a nasty little smirk, "I know you do, I know all the boys do and I love it." You do?"

I cut to one side to bypass the group of Indians and swirled around to begin an attack from their right side. That was going to make it difficult for a right-handed archer to shoot at me.The Indian horses were much faster than mine because of the difference in the weight they were carrying. Therefore, when one of the Comanches turned away from the charge at the wagon to come after me, he was moving at nearly twice the speed I was traveling. Actually, it was a case of the slower the better for.
