He lowered himself to a rock. "Careful, kiddo, they gave me some Peyote tea and I'm not firm on my feet yet. As for getting shot, I assure you that it was not on my agenda. Does all this worrying mean you still love me?"
"Of course I still love you, you big nitwit! Would I have put up with your attitude if I didn't?!"
"Please, show respect among these people," Sloan whispered. "They will not hesitate to offer me a bench to put your bottom over."
Blair blushed. "Is that all you ever think of? Putting me over something?"
"A bench, my knee, a barrel," Sloan grinned, kissing her. "As long as I have access to that beautiful behind, it doesn't matter."
Quan chuckled as one of the women whispered something in his ear. "My wife states that Nocona's woman is surly because she wishes to mate, but the union has not been blessed. We will make that so."
"What do you mean, Quan?" Blair frowned as the whispers and laughter began to spread rapidly.
"We are getting married, Blair. I am being made into an honest man. They have sent out the word to prepare a feast."
Blair's head spun as the activity around her rose with music, dance, and food. The Shaman and the Chief sang chats over her head, and she was given tea, which made her light-headed.
She elbowed Sloan. "This is the most amazing party I have ever attended," she giggled, sipping some more of her drink. "We're getting married, now, aren't we?"
"Yes we are, my sweet. How are you feeling?"
She caught herself as she began to slide off the log. "Very happy. What is going on? What is this beverage?"
"Easy, girl. You are being given a name. You will drink the Peyote and a vision will come to you," Sloan said, sipping his own tea. "This stuff is potent, so take it slow. You don't have to drink it all."
"It's good, and it's making me happy. Why am I being given a name?" Blair asked as her vision began to blur. She steadied herself against Sloan's good arm.
"Lean against me, baby. You need a name so that they can marry us. Quan says that his wives believe you are so surly because you want to mate and must be married."
"I do not want to mate," Blair said, her speech slurring.
"After a few more sips, you sure will. Close your eyes, Blair," Sloan chuckled, pulling her against his chest with his uninjured arm. "They are calling you Ayasha, which means spirit. You impressed them with Skinwalker."
"Impressed? How could that be. The damn horse pushed me into the dirt and spit on me!"
Sloan simply laughed and held her as she slumped against him in a restful repose.
Three weeks later, Sloan and Blair sat before the banker as he sifted through the papers designating property ownership and rights. The man shook his head, removed his glasses, and set them upon the table.
"Well?" Blair asked, nervously.
"All the paperwork with your grandfather's signatures will be considered null and void because of the illegal activity."
"What does that mean to Blair?" Sloan asked.
"Everything reverts back to the original documents. Simply stating, everything belongs to your wife, with the exception of the properties purchased following the murders. Those will revert back to the bank."
"She even owns the house in Philadelphia?"
"Everything, sir. Here is the summation of her holdings."
"Sloan, this is a fortune. I can't …"
"It's yours, baby. What are you going to do?"
Blair inhaled deeply. "First, I am going to resolve the pain in my family. We are taking a trip to Philadelphia and are going to tell Aunt Imelda the whole truth of what happened between her, Lillian and Deuce. I do forgive her of the transgression against me, but I cannot in good faith allow her to continue living this lie that has caused so much distress. She will be permitted to stay at the house, under the condition that Madeline remains as house matron."
"House matron? Miss?" Madeline looked confused.
"We are going to turn the Farbor Mansion into an orphanage. There are twelve rooms with two wings, large enough to house numerous children and their teachers. Would you want to take that position, Madeline?"
"Oh, yes, Miss! Yes!"
"We will provide you with a stipend, as well as a generous allowance, to provide for all the needs of the children. Raise them with the love you raised me with, Madeline. I am entrusting them to you."
"Ms. Farbor will be displeased," Madeline commented, attempting to hide a smile.
"That she will. If it is too great for her to handle, I will arrange for her to live in an apartment in the city," Blair said, calmly. "It will be a far step down from her present living conditions, but it will allow her to be isolated from the noise of children and deal with that of the street instead."
"You are a conniving little vixen, wife. What else are you planning?"
"We will build a school here in Manitou Springs and have it open to whomever wishes to learn, including our friends, the Ute. I will teach until others come here and take my place."
"I approve," Sloan said, proudly.
"And the final thing I shall do," she turned to her husband with a mischievous smirk, "is practice that mating ritual the Ute told me about."
She ignored the reddening cheeks of both the banker and Madeline as Sloan stood up and held out his hand. "If you will excuse us, the Missus and I have some practicing to do."
Blair giggled as he chased her up the stairs and cornered her against the wall.
"Do you have any preferences, my love?" Sloan asked, stripping his clothes from his body.
Blair followed suit and grinned, tilting her head toward the broad wooden cask resting on its side. "How about over the barrel? But this time, without a strap."
