WRITER’S NOTES – The references to Greek Mythology used here can be found in most Encyclopedias.

It was necessary for me to learn the game of poker to make this complete. Although it doesn’t take up much of the plot, I’m told I got it right.

The Native Language used in this narrative is authentic but I apologize for the small liberties I took with some of the translation. I must also offer an apology for the appearance of the written words. The standard computer keyboard does not allow for Cheyenne punctuation.

My story has no true basis in reality but the references made to Native American cultural beliefs have a basis in fact. The creatures of the Four Winds do exist!

My thanks to Antoinette for her friendship, guidance and patience. Thanks also, to Amy, for her enthusiasm and tenacity. And, thank you to Carrie and Marnie, for their eagerness to help.

Finally, to the ladies in the chat room, who convinced me that I could do this – this ‘Adult’ version is for you!

FOREWORD

It’s five weeks after ‘Serpents' … late in May 1878.

The Magnificent Seven have been residents of Four Corners for a little more than two years now and JD Dunne has made himself more than comfortable in his new home. Nathan Jackson had lived here for some time already but now has added reasons to stay, while Josiah Sanchez has finally found the right place and the right friends, to shields him from his demons.

Yet, the contentment of these three is not shared by their fellow peacekeepers.

Chris Larabee is still troubled by the revelations of 'Obsession' and Ezra Standish is attempting to come to terms with the assumptions made by his associates in 'Serpents'. After 'LadyKillers', Buck Wilmington has been trying to figure out if being attached to these men is really worth the emotional turmoil and Vin Tanner has been dwelling heavily on words he spoke in 'Archilles'. It may have been a way to ask Mary Travis for help but the phrase conceals another secret for the naturally quiet, reserved man. – ‘I'm not the way they see me… not who they think I am’
