A Rogue In Sheep’s Clothing (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
The horse’s sides heaved, a thick foam of sweat clung to its neck and flanks. Ellie leaped from the exhausted animal. “You’ve nearly killed him. Why didn’t you stop!” she screamed at Toby. “The mares may be gone already.” Toby vaulted from the spent animal as the gelding dropped to his knees. Tears bit her eyes. She unbuckled the girth to give the gelding room to breathe, and removed the bit from his mouth. “He needs to be walked out,” she said. No one answered — Toby was gone. She ran to the trough and scooped a little water into a bucket for the gelding. While the horse drank, she noticed the normally bustling stable yard was empty. Fine hairs on her arms prickled with fear. The gelding struggled back on his feet. “Let’s walk you a little,” she told the horse, realizing her voice was no louder than a whisper. With the reins looped around his neck, she led the gelding to the broodmare barn.
