Autumn Frost
The wind tossed through Autumn’s brilliant coppery mane, drying the seawater from her pelt and leaving it shimmering in the sunlight. She pranced eagerly alongside this new stallion. She could hardly believe her luck – finally, after so much time spent searching for a home, she had found a stallion to join, to start a herd with. Never in her life had she been so lucky. Never before.
Why now? She could not have said.
Inhaling the scent of grass and growing things as they drew nearer to the edge of the valley, Autumn could not help the feeling of energy and ecstasy that raced through her, starting in her hooves and rising up into her head. Suddenly, she wanted to run, to dance and play like a filly in the swaying grasses, but she knew better than that. She was a stallion’s mare now, and until she was certain of his rules, she would stick close to his side. She did not want to risk irritating him and losing this home that she had just found for herself.
”This place is beautiful,” she whickered, turning her glistening brown eyes to the stallion who towered at her side. ”Thank you for bringing me here.”
