“All right. What would you like to know, Autumn?”
She’d never liked her name, but he almost made it sound like an endearment. “Elkhorn…is that…?” She paused. How did one ask a Native American what tribe he was from?
“My parents were Cherokee.”
“Your parents were Cherokee? That’s a unique way of stating your heritage.”
“I suppose it is.”
“What about you? Aren’t you Cherokee too?”
“Not so you’d notice.”
“You look…”
“My brothers and I are mainstream American.”
“Because of where you were born or for another reason?”
“At the time, our parents felt we’d do better if we strove to be Americans instead of highlighting the fact that we’re Native Americans.”
“Where are you from?”
“My parents were born in Oklahoma.”
“Were you born there?”
“No. I was born in California.”
“So you’re Cherokee?”
His lips twitched. “Yes, Autumn, Cherokee. Were you hoping I was from more movie famous stock like Comanche or Apache?”
“No!”
“No?”
She bit her lip and then laughed, but quickly sobered. “I’m sorry, Seneka. I meant no offense.”
His smile held no trace of offense. “None taken. My brothers and I have grown used to non-Native women who read…what do you call them? Capture romances and then went on to weave fantasies of becoming a sex slave of a Comanche or an Apache warrior.”
Was he reading her mind?
He arched a brow. “Apparently such women suffer under the delusion that they make better captors and or lovers.”
She sipped her drink before she responded. “Do they?”
“Hell no.” He grinned. “Anytime you’d like proof, I’d be delighted to take you captive and make you my sex slave.”
“My sex slave.” He shrugged. “Or maybe you’d like to turn the tables on me and I’d wind up being your sex slave.”
“My sex slave?”
He shrugged. “I’m a modern man—open to trying almost anything. Either way, count me in any time you’re in the mood to experiment.”
