The Lansing House
One coyote jumped on One Star, and went for his neck.
Asher started shooting the coyotes on the ground, afraid that he’d kill One Star, if he shot the one yapping at his neck. He ran toward them, hitting the coyote in the head with the butt of the rifle. The coyote yelped, releasing One Star, and Asher shot it in the head.
One Star’s eyes were wide, the whites showing his traumatized state. Blood seeped from his neck as Asher walked slowly toward him. “Easy, boy. Easy, now.” When One Star whinnied again, Asher’s worst fears were confirmed.
