Saturday Snippet: Make Sure He's the First One

The following snippet is taken from 

Kizzie's Kisses, 

Book 2 in the Atwell Kin series:

…the sound of an additional horse riding up fast from the direction from which she had come ratcheted her anxiety to the next level.

          Whoever it was, she did not want to deal with anyone else. She scrambled into the saddle as quickly as Sugarcone would allow her. “You don’t need to know. All I know is I am getting away from here as fast as I can to find help to protect my family from the Indians. I hope you keep traveling right into their path.” She spun Sugarcone in place as she pointed to Tucker passed out on the ground. “If they kill and scalp any of you, make sure he’s the first one.”

          Leander Jones moved so quickly she didn’t see him until he stood next to Sugarcone, the reins beneath Sugarcone’s chin gripped tightly in his hands. “That’s rather harsh, miss. Now, I know you’re upset and have every right to be. You don’t need to tell me your name if you aren’t so inclined. However, I’ve been sent along to guard this freight train knowing we will soon be entering a large stretch of desolate prairie where we might run across hostile Indian tribes angry with whites encroaching on their hunting grounds. Please tell me what you know about any Indian attacks in the area.”
