The afternoon light was waning by the time Beth and Pierce delivered the fresh kill to the nuns. Reverend Mother was delighted with the gift. She unlatched the door to the smokehouse and helped store the bounty as the captain built a fire to preserve it.

The sunset was a sight to behold as Beth and Pierce returned to camp. His horse’s saddlebags contained the deer hide.

Nestling close to the captain’s back, Beth drank in the last of the perfect day. Golds, pinks, and oranges painted the sky. The hot sun cooled to a warm breeze. Joanie ran to meet them, her eyes filled with concern. “Where have you been?”

Pierce helped Beth down from the horse, and she embraced her sister. “I’m sorry to cause you alarm.” She told Joanie about the events of the strange day. Then, easing her aside, Beth examined her sister’s pale features. “What about you?”

Joanie bent and rested her head on her sister’s shoulder, her words disheartening. “The cough has worsened.”

Gray Eagle stood to the side, his dark eyes focused on Joanie. Beth met his gaze for a moment, not sure what to make of the man’s attention.

Surely the Indian didn’t have designs on her ill sister. But if Joanie was interested…and he was interested…she shook the image of the unlikely pairing aside.

Joanie couldn’t be that fanciful.
