Aviva- http://loveislife-hannah.tumblr.com/pos ... r-in-a-few
Aviva frowned as she watched the carriage barreling through her property. She edged around the edge of the woods watching it as Toby and Haven, her dogs, stayed right at her side. She followed it until it stopped in the middle of the field. She was shocked to see them throw a person out and then take off again. The carriage didn’t belong way out here in the west, but it was there. She frowned as she waited til it was all the way gone before whistling to her horse that was a few feet away and walking towards the person that was laying on the ground.
When she got closer she saw that it was a man, and he was beaten near to death. She frowned as Toby and Haven sniffed at him,
“Black, down.” She ordered her horse who slowly lowered himself down to the ground on his belly. She used all her strength to pull the man over to her horse and up on his back. “Up.” The horse slowly eased himself up to a standing position as Aviva held the man onto his back.
*~*~*~*
When Aviva finally had gotten the man in her house and on the cot in her living room she quickly set to work fixing all his injuries. He was running a slight fever, so she put a cool cloth on his head. Once she had done all she could do she moved to the kitchen and started making some food. Toby and Haven laid on the floor between her and the stranger as she cooked.
Why did you bring a strange man here you fool! The last thing she needed was a stranger trying to tell her she was a woman that needed to be with society not running her own ranch. If nothing they knew how successful she was with the ranch maybe they would leave her alone about it all. Plus, it wasn’t like she was alone out here. Black Hawk came to visit with his family and tribe sometime. Though most white people wouldn’t count that as proper company unless they were friends with the Indians.
