Chapter Thirteen

She told the girls about her love for Dakota. She had to, she was so happy it seemed to bubble forth from her.

All the girls had met him at the Theater and he had seen that they always had the best seats there. They thought he was polite, and very sweet to see to them to their seats. They supported her and promised to help her in any way they could. Trish wasn't here, but she wrote her a long letter telling her about her and Dakota.

The next two weeks went by in a frenzy. Every rehearsal day, she stayed after and went upstairs with Dakota and they made love. Her love and respect grew from his constant protectiveness of her. No one saw them, and for a while it was heaven. When she was away from him she missed him, and he her.

But then the other entertainers arrived and since Mr. Montgomery gave them a suite upstairs as they were man and wife, Maggie didn't know how she would sneak into Dakota's room any longer. They'd be caught. It was impossible to meet in his room any longer.

"Maggie dear, I'd like to introduce Mr. and Mrs. Campbell, they will be doing magic tricks between your songs."

Maggie extended her hand and smiled brightly. Mr. Campbell nodded, but his wife didn't seem impressed with her. Her nose went to the air. Maggie overlooked it as fatigue from their travel.

The woman stared at her for a long moment. "Do you have a suite upstairs too?" The way she asked that had Maggie wondering what her problem was.

"No, I live at the boarding house," She answered wondering why the woman was so interested in where she lived.

"Oh, I see. Well, we'll have to get together."

"Perhaps tea or coffee at Ma's?"

"Ma's?" the woman questioned.

"Ma owns the boarding house." Maggie explained.

"How delightful. Yes, that would be wonderful." The woman still stared. "Sometime." She added.

Maggie looked her over too, she was small, and had beautiful dark hair and blue eyes. The way she presented herself Maggie wondered if she was from another country. She had kind of an accent but Maggie had no idea where it came from.

Her husband was tall and lanky, with dark hair and eyes. He wasn't as unfriendly. But his look was amicable.

Maggie excused herself.

When Dakota came in the woman seemed mesmerized by him immediately. Her eyes rounded on him with what looked like wide-eyed anticipation. She didn't bother to hide her attraction for him and her husband seemed to indulge it to some degree.

"Is he an Indian?" She whispered to Maggie before she walked off.

"Yes, he is." Maggie left her with her mouth open.

When Dakota walked her home that night, he pulled her into the shadows.

"Do not worry, I will find us a place that we can be together."

"Oh Dakota, as soon as you do, let me know."

"Never fear, I miss you in my arms, in my bed." He said and kissed her hotly as they went behind the boarding house to kiss.
