Rain Forest Rose (2007)
“He was headed straight for them.
“This way,” she told Hoku, then gently moved the lead rope.
The mustang spun away and hit the end of the rope with such force, Darby lost her balance. She only kept herself from falling by grabbing a handful of Hoku’s mane.
Disoriented by all the commotion, the black boar swayed, lifting his snout into the air. He trotted toward them and Hoku stared with stricken fascination.
The rocks. Darby tried throwing one past the boar to see what he would do.
Nothing. No,... wait, his reaction was delayed, but he grunted and turned toward the spot where the rock had landed.
As plans went, Darby thought, hers wasn’t much. She’d try to lure him closer with the rocks, and then, when she couldn’t hold Hoku anymore—and that moment was coming soon—they’d dart for the gate. Once it was locked behind them with the boar inside, maybe she could lead Hoku to Tutu’s cottage, and then home to ‘Iolani Ranch, to get Jonah to come confront the pig.
Part of her plan worked.MoreLess
