It’s hot and I’m more than annoyed by the time I get the chain drag hooked behind the cultipacker so I can cover the seed.I run the irrigation for one pass, grateful for the cooling mist, then check the electric fencing before I load everything back up and take the tractor home.I wave to Rob on the roof as I come up the drive, admiring the sight of him, tan, sweaty and shirtless a

CHAPTER 2An Unfair Deal II "Who are you?!" Gloria's voice reached the skies as she cried from the heavy and pain inflicting grip from the hand of an unseen individual. The holder who dragged Gloria through the woods had a mask over his face, leaving his eye open to predictor and prey.  He stumped her back over the bark of a birch plant heavily. Instantly, Gloria got overwhelmed with fear as she pushed her body backwards and turned over to the left side, with traces of tears hanging on her face.  The presumed kidnapper slowly took his hand towards the body of the Gloria who cried for her freedom.
