She grabbed a handful of kernels and tossed them into the dirt. Chickens came running from every corner of their fenced pen. They quickly gobbled up the corn but didn’t bother her.
She took a few steps away from the gate and was about to scatter the rest when she noticed a giant rooster heading right for her.
His neck was bobbing. His spurs were twice as big as the hens’ and looked like they should be classified as deadly weapons. The bright red comb on his head and the loose skin at his neck seemed like he was waving a warning flag.
He stopped between her and the gate and made a tuck, tuck, tuck, tuck sound. Not good. Probably a call for attack. He jumped toward her.
Grace started to run. The rooster stayed right behind her. The eggs she’d so carefully gathered began to tumble from her basket.
Throw the corn. Quick. Toss it as far as you can and make a run for the gate.
She slowed to grab a handful of kernels. Her foot slipped and she went sliding, landing on her butt right in the middle of a mud puddle.
Finally, she threw the corn as far as she could. The rooster and all the hens followed the food. By now half of the eggs were on the ground, cracked. She was covered in mud. And the crazy wig had slid down so that it practically covered her eyes.
This couldn’t possibly get any worse.
She started to get up and slipped again. Muddy water splattered her face and the lens of her glasses.
And then she heard laughter. Hardy, deep, full-throated laughter. She looked up and into the face of one of the hunkiest, most gorgeous men she’d ever seen.
She’d been wrong. Things had just gotten a lot worse.
