a
blurred arch around to meet the airborne cat, using the hammer side
of his weapon.
    With all of the massive strength
contained within his enormous frame, Connor connected first with
the cat’s skull. With a sickening, bone splitting crunch that
streaked through the area, the Cougar went instantly limp in the
air. Unfortunately since Connor and the golden creature both
charged at each other with their full weight behind them, they
crashed into each other with a loud and audible thud .
    Both Connor and the great cat crumpled to the
ground together. The twitching cougar landed on top of Connor.
Neither moved and that frightened Sarah even more. She didn’t want
him to be hurt, but what she just witnessed…
    “CONNOR!!!” Sarah yelled and ran over to him
as quickly as she could because she had fallen down when Connor
released her shoulder to confront the feline. She forcibly tried
pushing the heavy Cougar off of him with all of the strength she
had, to see if Connor was injured and hoped he still lived.
    Feeling the weight of the Cougar getting
lighter Connor said “I’m glad that’s over. At least he wasn’t a
pack animal like wolves or wild dogs. I’m not sure I could have
fended off more than one and protected you simultaneously…”
    A very beautiful face, full of concern began
looking down upon him, filling his whole vision with Sarah. “Oh
thank goodness. Connor, are you alright?” Sarah could barley
suppressing her tears, blinking quickly to keep them at bay. It
made her emerald irises shine that much more.
    Trying to alleviate her sadness and
fear, he chuckled and smiled. “So you forgive me for kissing your
forehead huh? And here I thought you were one to hold grudges for
a long time…”
    Sarah just couldn’t hold her tears any
longer. Streams fell from her eyes and caressed down her cheeks
until they dripped off her chin. “You fool, you lucky fool. You
could have been killed.” Still crying, she went on “I have never
seen anyone survive such an attack like that without a rifle or
bow. Your something else, you know that…” She somehow stopped
crying and turned serious. “I need to check and see if you are
wounded. It landed on you. That was a quick, but powerful
fight…”
    Connor, still laying on his back in the damp
grass, watched as Sarah reached for the bottom of his shirt and he
quickly managed to grab her hand to stop her from lifting the cloth
up any further.
    Connor said very quickly and clearly “No, No,
No, No, No. I’m alright Sarah; I’m not hurt at all.” Now his voice
turned calm and controlled. “Sarah, you have your secrets and so do
I. Please do not lift up my shirt. You need to respect my only
wish.” Sarah knelt at his left side while he still held her
hand.
    “Ok, Connor.” She said quietly and he
released her hand. She then put her hands together and sat them in
her lap. She waited patiently for him to elaborate just a little
bit more because she had already given away a portion of her
secret, at least a piece anyway.
    “It’s just that I really do not want to
drive you away so soon. I have never felt so very connected to someone like you before
and I really don’t want to lose that so soon.” She nodded,
satisfied for the moment.
    She restated his thought. “I understand
completely because I feel the exact same way about you…” Her words
struck Connor speechless and joyful at the same time. “She really feels the same? I’ve never felt more
relieved.” His heart seconded the thought by beating
ferociously and happily.
    Not even the skirmish with the cougar
made his heart sound and beat like this. Connor then had another
thought “Either I am in love or that Sarah
is even more dangerous than the cougar… Ha why can’t it be both?
That will be more fun and a bigger challenge. I’m not sure I can
win… hahahahaha…”
    Sarah’s mask of concern etched itself upon
her delicate features again, so Connor said something even he
didn’t even expect to
