Lisa was sure, now, that Frank had gotten someone pregnant before. He probably had a whole brood of children somewhere, tucked away in some New England colony. That's why he'd been so eager to come west with her, to get away from his other wife and their children. They probably had a bunch of children.
    “Oh Lisa, don't be silly,” she said to herself. “None of that is real.”
    Jeb let out a snort as he walked down the road.
    “That's right Jeb, none of it is real,” Lisa said, patting the side of the horse’s neck. “None of it’s real at all. It's silly to make up stories about Frank's past in my head. What normal person does that?”
    Jeb snorted and tossed his head, shaking his mane back and forth. Lisa stated to wonder why Jeb was acting like something was wrong. It was a nice day, the sun shone through clouds down on the road in front of them. The town was only a little way ahead of them now, but Jeb wouldn't even walk a straight line anymore, he kept dancing side to side, as if swerving to avoid something only he could see.
    “What has gotten into you?” Lisa asked the horse as it dance from side to side on the road. “Is there something a matter? Is there a pebble or something under the saddle?”
    She had checked the saddle for debris before she put it on the horse though, so she was fairly certain it wasn't that. Or had some kind of hard shelled insect had flown under the saddle as she put it down on the beast?
    She wasn’t sure what made her look behind. Maybe it was Jeb's goading that finally did it, as that was plainly what the horse was doing in hindsight. Or maybe it had to do with the way her flesh goose pimpled for no reason. Lisa didn't know what made her cast a long look over her shoulder, but when she did her blood ran cold.
    Down the road behind her quickly closing ground was the Indian man on a war pony.
    “Go, go, go!” Lisa screamed as she kicked Jeb's ribs.
    Jeb took off like he had been waiting the whole time for Lisa to realize what was going on and act in her own best interest. The town was just ahead and Lisa was glad for that. Jeb, although a work horse, was good at short sprints. She hoped he would be able to hold out. She looked over her shoulder again and saw the Indian and the pony just a few horse lengths behind her.
    “Come on Jeb,” Lisa screamed. “Come on! Go! Go! Go!”
    Jeb's stride reached out as if responding to his mistress’s command. Lisa would have liked to think that Jeb was speeding up in order to save her but she knew it was because Jeb hated to feel another horse behind him.
    It just didn't feel right to Jeb - that much was easy to tell. Jeb like to be out in the stretch by himself when he was running, not cramped up with a bunch of horses behind him and around him. Not that Jeb had ever been to an actual horse race or anything like that, it was just what Lisa imagined Jeb's personality to be like.
    Just as they entered the city limits of the town Lisa looked back and the Indian on the pony was gone. She could see the froth coming off of Jeb's lips in thick clumps and steered him over to a trough. Lisa jumped off the horse and started to rub him down with a rag she kept in one of the saddle bags. She let Jeb drink a little bit, but pulled him away when he started to drink so much that his stomach would hurt and make him sluggish.
    “Good boy,” She cooed. “Good Jeb. Going to have to keep this one between us, all right? Going to have to keep this one from daddy. Frank won't understand, all right? So let's just keep this between us.”
    Jeb nodded his head as if in agreement and Lisa fished an apple out of the saddle bag and fed it to him. Jeb really had saved her life today, and for that she was grateful. It was hard to tell what the Indian would have done with her had he caught up with her. Probably knocked her off her horse, or tried to lift her off and then slow his horse down so he could set her down safely. Maybe the Indian just wanted to rape and
