This is not good. It is our bargain, eh?” He plucked a wisp of grass and ran it slowly between his fingers, watching her in a way that suggested he would soon touch her--just as slowly. “It was a promise you made for me, and now you make a lie of it? This is the way of your people, to say empty words. Penende taquoip , honey talk, eh? But it is not the way of the Comanche. If you make a lie, I will carve out your tongue and feed it to the crows.” The breeze caught his hair, draping strands of it across his chiseled features. For an instant, the knife slash that marred his cheek was hidden, and he seemed less formidable. Her attention was drawn to his lips, full and sharply defined, yet somehow hard, perhaps because of the rigid expression he always wore. Deep crevices bracketed his mouth--laugh lines, surely. Ah, yes, she could imagine him cutting out her tongue and smiling while he did it. “You do not like me too good. This is a sad thing, eh?” With a sweep of his hand, he indicated the world around them. “The sky is up, the earth is down. The sun shows its face, only to be chased away by Mother Moon. These things are for always, eh? Just as you are my woman. The song was sung long ago, and the song must come to pass. You must accept, Blue Eyes.” Loretta yearned to break eye contact but found she couldn’t. The silken threads of his deep voice wove a spell around her. She must accept? Already he was planning to give her away to his horrible cousin. She sank lower in the water, keeping her arms crossed to hide her breasts. Could he see through the ripples? Still studying her with the same unnerving intensity, he said, “When the wind blows, the sapling bends, the flowers lie low against the earth, the grass is flattened.” He thumped his chest with his fist. “I am your wind, Blue Eyes.

Bend or break.” Bend or break. In all her life, she had never felt quite so helpless. Her attention moved to the knife on his hip. If only he would drop his guard--just for a moment. As if he sensed what she was thinking, he smiled another humorless smile and lowered his gaze to her chest where the water lapped just above her splayed fingertips. She tightened her arms around herself. He said nothing more, but words weren’t necessary. She couldn’t stay in the river forever, and when she emerged, he would be waiting. She was trapped. Always, forever, with no horizon.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Catherine Anderson" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/catherine-anderson/you-do-not-like-me-too-good-this-is-a-sad-thing-eh-with-a-sweep-of-2/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/d5d/catherine-anderson-308_eye-contact_you-do-not-like-me-too-good-this-is-a-sa_875962.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/d5d/catherine-anderson-308_eye-contact_you-do-not-like-me-too-good-this-is-a-sa_875962.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/d5d/catherine-anderson-308_eye-contact_you-do-not-like-me-too-good-this-is-a-sa_875962.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“You do not like me too good.

You miserable coward, Henry. You send that girl out there, and you’ll never sleep a whole night through the rest of your life.” Loretta touched the door planks and froze. Through the cracks she heard bells tinkling, a merry sound, as out of place as cheerful music at a funeral. She made the sign of the cross and squeezed her eyes closed, trying to remember how to make an act of contrition, but the words jumbled in her head. “Henry, no,” Rachel pleaded. “Loretta, don’t open that door. If they want a woman, I’ll go.” “It’s not you they’re wantin’,” Henry snapped. “One of ’em spotted Loretta down by the river the other day, and he’s come back for her. They’ll shoot ya down where ya stand.” Rachel whirled on her husband. “That girl’s my sister’s daughter. I’ll never forgive you if you let her go out there!” “Ya don’t have to do it, Loretta,” Tom argued. “There’s some things worse than dyin’, and this is one of ’em.” Loretta hesitated. Then the door squeaked on its leather hinges, swinging open a crack. A shaft of light fell across her face. She stepped across the threshold. Better just me than everyone. Another step. Better the Comanches take me than Amy. It wasn’t so hard, now that she was doing it. She took a deep breath and walked out onto the porch. The door slammed shut behind her, and the bar thudded home with an echo of finality. Staring at her with impenetrable blue-black eyes, the warrior on the black nudged the animal a pace forward. With that relentless eye-to-eye contact, he held her pinioned where she stood. For what seemed a lifetime, he studied her, not moving, not speaking, his lance still held aloft. Loretta’s courage disintegrated, and a violent tremor swept the length of her. He noted the shudder, and his observant gaze trailed up her body in its wake. His attention fell to her hips, lingered there with an insulting contempt, then traveled upward to her breasts. Humiliation scorched her cheeks.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Catherine Anderson" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/catherine-anderson/as-loretta-drew-near-the-door-tom-cried-no-you-miserable-coward-henry/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/13c/catherine-anderson-308_black-eyes_as-loretta-drew-near-the-door-tom-cried_3205181.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/13c/catherine-anderson-308_black-eyes_as-loretta-drew-near-the-door-tom-cried_3205181.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/13c/catherine-anderson-308_black-eyes_as-loretta-drew-near-the-door-tom-cried_3205181.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“As Loretta drew near the door, Tom cried, “No!
