Heather pushed away the quick spurt of pity she felt for the bewildered man. Of course he was upset. He evidently didn’t expect his children to be dropped on him this way. Well, she wouldn’t give him any pity. It was his decision or fault that he had two boys with no obvious wife or mother to help in their care.

“Where’s their mother?”

“Darned if I know. One’s mother is dead, died at birth. The other’s . . . who knows?”

Heather’s eyes widened at his apparent lack of knowledge or interest in the woman who had given birth to his sons. She felt her hand curl into a fist as she held herself in.

“I can tell you, Heather, I sure don’t need this. I’d put those two back on the train if I could. I’m trying to get a ranch together and having two boys underfoot sure wasn’t in my plans. Did I tell you one wets all over himself? Well, he does. That’s the stinky one.” He shook his head. “I call him Stinky. Come to think of it, I don’t know their names or even if they have one.”

“You don’t know the boys’ names or even if they have one?” Emerald fire shot from her eyes. “You don’t know their names?” she asked again through gritted teeth.

“Nope. The way the one smells, Stinky’s a good name for him. Maybe after I get some coffee, I’ll ask the older one. He’ll probably know both their names.”

Two things happened: Heather lost control and Whip landed on his butt.

“OW!!” Whip looked up at Heather standing over him, her fists still curled. He rubbed his hand gingerly over his jaw. He blinked his eyes hard and shook his head. “Good Lord, woman. Why’d you do that?”

“Don’t you get up, Mr. Whip Johnson, or so help me I’ll hit you again.”

“Well now, Heather,” he said, reaching for the hat lying in the dust beside him, “I’m not entirely stupid, although I admit I sure didn’t see that coming.” He gingerly put his hat on his head. “Mind telling me just why you suddenly felt the need to break my jaw?”
