Hours later, Levi stood in the cold showing his wife how to harness a horse. The back end of the sleigh was loaded down with fresh hay to take to his herd out in the snow. He would also need to bust the frozen water on the pond for them to drink fresh water.

It was going to be a busy day. But this morning, she asked him to teach her, and that left him excited. While the storm had kept them snowed in together, then her not feeling well, this was her first chance to really see the acreage he was so proud of.

Today was the first time she'd showed an interest in learning about her new life and he hoped that meant she planned on staying, because he liked Anna a lot and if he had his way, they would have already consummated their marriage to seal the deal.

Levi brought Anna around to the side of the horse.

"Never show fear around an animal," he said, taking her hand, rubbing the horse’s ears with her fingers.

After her reaction with the dog, he thought she would do very well with animals, but she still needed some instruction. His citified wife had a lot to learn about living on a ranch.

"So soft," she said. "Will she bite me?"

"If you show you're afraid. Just keep your fingers away from her mouth. Now, take the bridal and gently push the horse’s head down, then slip the horse’s nose and mouth through the harness and then up around her ears. It's simple once you get the hang of it. Now you try."

He watched her bite her lip and he wanted to groan. It was a habit that he adored, and each time left him hungry to taste her again. The horse gave a deep throated sound as the mare lifted her head and Anna tried to force the harness on. "No, not that way."

Taking the harness, he pulled it away from the horse. "The mare's head should be down. Once she starts lifting, you should already have it on or you need to start again. So head down, slip over the nose, the bit goes between her teeth, pull up and slip over her ears. Let's try again."

With his hand, he pushed down on the mare's head and this time Anna was successful in getting the bridal on the horse. She turned to him and smiled in that way that had his heart melting. If she ever learned how her smile affected him, he would be in so much trouble.

"I did it," she exclaimed as she reached up and rubbed the animal’s ears. The joy in her voice thrilled him.

"Now, we need to put her collar on and then I'll show you how to hook her up to the sled. Until you've done this several times, I don't want you driving the sleigh by yourself," he said, thinking he didn't want to lose his wife in a snowstorm. Becoming a young widower was not exactly his idea of a good marriage.
