But as his grandmother used to say, "Better safe than sorry." A few basic self-defense lessons and some shooting practice would not do his daughter any harm. Heck, as much as she looked like her Mama, the girl would need them - if he ever let her date.
He was caught up in the complexities of that thought as they exited the barn. But before they separated, his daughter stopped and looked up him with those wide Wilson green eyes, "What was her name?"
He shook his head, uncertain what the girl was talking about. "What was your grandmother's name?"
He saw those eyes flare wide, but he would never out and out lie to her. She had had enough of that for several lifetimes, "Grace. Her name was Grace, just like yours. Pretty funny coincidence, huh?"
And it had been, but if he had been there, if he had been around for his daughter's birth, that was precisely the name he would have chosen. But instead of saying any of that, "I'll see you back at the house in a few minutes."
He stood there, watching as she walked the pregnant mare back to the fields. Yeah, things were moving fast. Too damned fast. He and Cassie - Rose - had some serious thinking and talking to do. And no time like the present, another of his grandmother's sage pieces of advice, as he headed back to the house to wash up.

Anonymousalmost 4 years agoWell I’m all in favour of you writing what and when you want to, because it’s your story. Just consider the comment and virtual slap for those who make ridiculous demands, nobody a right to make demands of you or your time unless they’re your immediate family, dammit family asks they demand. Real life folks, kinda has to come first.
Tess (UK) stating what should be bloody obvious 🙄
PS still love your beautiful mind x
hornier_bastardalmost 4 years agoI think that anyone who likes and follows a multi-chapter (y'know a REAL) story (with character development, a plot, etc.) wants longer chapters... I do too, but I do appreciate that you're putting the chapters out quickly and regularly, and there is a lot to be said for that approach, so I'm very much not complaining!
which means... a) I like the story, and b) looking forward to the next chapter which c) I won't have to wait too long for... it's all good!
mugsymalonealmost 4 years agoYou are both making excellent points. Like bigbob, I anxiously await the next chapters and would love to read this story in book form; however, they are presented in installments. We both have the option of waiting until you, Tara, post the complete novella; yet I've decided delayed gratification does not apply to your work! I eagerly indulge reading immediately. Some of the "stories" on Literotica are complete only because searches unearth older stories. Tara, may your frustration ease in knowing that new readers are continually discovering you and so your previous comments were never seen by the newbies. It is a credit to your writing that your readers are impatient. Thank you.
