Tales of Western Romance
“Women and children surged forward, their eyes bright with interest when they saw the many cavalry ponies, blankets, rifles, and scalps the warriors brought home.
Winter Star ran forward with the other women, her gaze sweeping over the faces of the returning warriors as she searched for the tall figure of her father.
She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him riding near the head of the long column of warriors. Offering a silent prayer to Maheo for bringing Elk Hunter safely home, she made h...er way through the chattering crowd to walk beside her father’s horse.
The warriors came to a halt in the center of the village. Elk Hunter smiled warmly at his daughter as he dismounted and handed her the reins of his favorite war pony. It was then Winter Star noticed the rope in her father’s hand. Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw the other end of the rope looped around the neck of a white man. His hands were bound behind his back.
She had seen only a few white men in her life time and she stared curiously at the prisoner, the same way she would have stared at a wild animal.MoreLess
