THE END

Mated by the Stallion

"Jane, you take care of yourself, you hear me?" Her mother hugged her tight. Faith McGill loved her daughter, but didn't have the resources to care for a grown daughter who could have a husband and be off on her own. In the mid-eighteen hundreds, women didn't have a lot of choices to survive without a husband. Not if you didn't want to live in abject poverty with no hope of climbing out of it. Faith's husband had died a couple of years ago in a carriage accident and the bills had piled up. Faith had no idea how to manage money, and had continued to live as if an income were coming in until they were penniless and destitute.

"Okay, Momma, I'm sure this is going to work out. The man's in oil and gold and has so much money I don't even know why he picked me, but he did," Jane said, smiling gently. The man had sent enough money for her family to survive for the next year or two if they were careful. He described himself as being ruggedly handsome, a cowboy type who wanted a curvy lady who was comfortable in her own skin. Samuel Kane. Such a simple name, yet the man didn't seem simple at all. Jane felt he had secrets, but didn't know what they were and it intrigued her. She wanted to dig until she'd uncovered everything about the man. She knew being nosy wasn't considered a good trait, but she'd never liked being left in the dark.

"You write to me when you get there, promise?" Faith told her as the train whistle blew, letting them know it was almost time to go.

"Yes, Momma. Take care of Betsy and Lulu. I'm going to miss them." Jane thought of her two younger sisters who wouldn't be marriageable age for another few years. At nineteen, she was the oldest. Betsy was next at fourteen and then Lulu at twelve.

"Bye," Faith said and kept waving to her daughter as Jane got on and found her seat.

After handing over the ticket, she looked at her mother through the window and waved. She had a first class ticket to Colorado from the east coast, thanks to her new husband-to-be . It would be a long journey, but he made sure she was traveling in style and comfort. The train took off on its journey across the country. She watched her mother disappear in the distance and hoped she would have the life she envisioned in her head. Swallowing her fear, she tried to sit back and smile as the train left the city. Soon, all the buildings were gone and it was nothing but trees and wide open fields.

She'd never been on a train before and she was impressed at how fast it traveled. The clickety-clack of the train whooshing down the tracks had her making up songs in her head to the rhythm of the wheels.

A few hours later, the novelty wore off and she was bored.
