Red Pony By valerafon A female Apache Indian leaves her people and finds a different path and a new man. Red Pony walked out of the Apache encampment and she didn't look back. She was leaving her people for good. There would be no turning back. The brave she had married was dead. War Cloud had been killed in the last raid by their mortal enemies the Crow and now she was alone. None of the other braves would have her even though she was stunning to look at. She was just too big and too strong and too much of a bother for the other braves. No man wanted his woman to be stronger than he was especially an Apache warrior. During the last raid on her village she had single handedly killed four Crow warriors two with her bare hands, and afterward there were whispers behind her back from the other squaws. Even the braves whispered. She was known by the braves as Octago Panta Fuentana in the Apache language or she who fights like a man. Red Pony had always been a wild and untamed Indian maiden. To her husbands credit War Cloud stuck by her but even he too had difficulty with her and he was the tallest and strongest brave in the tribe. She was headstrong and wild and War Cloud often slept out of the lodge down by the stream. Since no other brave would take her in and she had no other family but War Cloud her options were few. Squaws such as her often died during the winter because no one would bring her meat and she was excluded from the hunting parties. Her only option was too leave and she took it. She remembered a cabin off Apache land high up in the mountains used as a line shack by the white men. War Cloud and her had seen it on one of their journeys and she knew it would be empty during the harsh winter to come. The land there was blessed by the creator of all things and much game roamed its slopes. Big horn sheep and antelope and many deer braved the winter there on the mountain. She could hunt game and she could cut a hole in the ice and fish a nearby lake. There would be food enough for her to make it through the winter. It was a daring plan she conceived. Her only real shot at survival and she took it. Red Pony didn't know what she would do after the winter came and went but that time was a long way off, and she had to survive the winter first. The night she chose to leave it was already cool and soon the autumn breezes would turn to winter gales. Strapping her only possession a large hunting knife to her thigh she crept to a nearby lodge and stole a bow and a quiver of arrows. Then she made her way to the ponies, but there were several braves their, and they thwarted her plans to steal one and ride like the wind away from the only people she had ever known. Carrying only a small pouch of food on her belt she quietly and stealthily walked out of camp pausing only for a moment to slip the bow over one of her broad shoulders and the quiver over another. Then she quickly struck out towards the full moon and the mountains in the distance her desperate journey begun. The first day of her journey she often looked back but no one was pursuing her. Red Pony was now alone in the world and she felt a great sadness but it did not stop her or slow her down. She had a goal and nothing else mattered. On the fourth day with the large mountain looming in the distance her food ran out, and she was still almost a whole day away from her objective. That's when she saw the glow of the campfire. Her hunger drew her to it like a mouth to a flame. When she drew near she heard a strange sound emanating from the light of the campfire. Slowly she crept forward unseen and unheard till she was just beyond the light of the fire behind a big rock. It was a white man or Pyutu as the Apache called them which stood for cowboy. They tended the cattle and generally stayed to themselves and the Apaches left them alone for the most part because they had greater enemies to contend with, the Crow and the Blackfoot and Piute among others. This Pyutu held this strange thing to his mouth and the most unusual sound came from it. As she listened the sounds actually began to intrigue Red Pony. It was the most unusual music she had ever heard in her life but oddly pleasing. He played that strange instrument for several minutes and when he finally put it down she got her first good look at the man. He was pleasing to look at but he had a growth of beard on him. The Apache men had no such feature and his small growth of beard intrigued her. It gave a rough but pleasing look to his countenance and Red Pony wondered what his face would feel like if she touched it. Then he reached for a pot on the fire and began to eat from it. She knew it was white man's food and it wouldn't taste good but she was hungry. In the throws of great starvation she wiped her mouth with the side of her arm and fought back her hunger. Pulling the knife from its sheath on her shapely thigh she held it a moment and contemplated the man's death. It was not her way or the Apache way to steal and kill. That was her hated enemy's way the Crow and she would not resort to something that low. She would wait till he slept and she would take what she needed but she would leave her pouch as payment. That was the Apache way. Besides, the man pleased her and as she stared at him by the fire she realized she hadn't been with a man for a very long time and this Pyutu stirred deep sexual feelings with in her. He was handsomer than any brave she had ever seen but he was white. He was beneath her. Yet he was very handsome. In another time and in another place Red Pony thought I would let him into my teepee and there we would spend a very passionate night together locked in each others arms. For a moment her urges consumed her as she stared at the white man dressed in that strange white man's clothing. He was so handsome though, and she liked his thin wiry body too. She even had a fantasy about him. They were sleeping together side by side, and she reached over grabbed him and pulled him to her and held close to her bigger stronger body before they made love. It would be like she was consuming him and that thought pleased her. Instinctively, she knew she was much stronger than he was and she laughed to herself when she thought of it. She was much stronger than most men and that was the root of much of her problems. He was small too, smaller than her by almost a full head. In any relationship she knew she would rule and he would follow her just like a squaw followed the men of her tribe and that too pleased her. She knew she was wild and headstrong unlike any other Indian maiden and that thought pleased her too. Finally, she put those thoughts aside as the man settled under his covers to sleep and twenty minutes later she had some food, some strangely bitter black water the man drank, and his spare blanket too. The bitter black water tasted awful but she drank it all down. It would sustain her till she reached the cabin on the mountain, and she left the man there with his life intact, but she left the pouch by the fire so he would be sure to find it as payment for the possessions taken in the night. Two hours further into her journey she stopped and rested and the man came back into her thoughts. She should have taken his horse. It would be needed. She should go back and get it. It would be easy but what of the man? He would die of course even if she spared his life. White men were no good in the wild without their horse. He was not her concern she thought. She needed the horse. It would be up to him if he lived or died so she started to retrace her steps back to the man's encampment. It would be light soon and her opportunity would be gone if she did not hurry. She did not make it back in time. As soon as it was light Red Pony knew he would be gone, but if he was heading south towards the white's man's town she could head him off just over the next bluff. It was a good plan she thought and she began to run thinking about the white man and his strangely exciting face. Just over the bluff she stood on a big stone overlooking the trail and to her delight she could see the man on his horse slowly moving towards her position. This will be easy she thought. When he was directly under her she jumped down and caught the man on his shoulder dragging him off his horse. He quickly bounced to his feet with unusual dexterity for a white man and was reaching for his gun when she hit with her shoulder square in the chest sending his gun flying. He was far slower in reacting this time and as he tried to stand Red Pony was on him before he could recover. She pulled him down and she got behind him, wrapped her strong arm around his neck, and began squeezing his throat. The cowboy still didn't realize it was a female getting the best of him. All he saw was this blur hitting him and now it felt like a large lumberjack had him by the throat and was squeezing the life out of him from behind. He fought back as best he could but who ever it was choking him they had really cinched in their arm around his throat and their was no way to get leverage to break the hold. Slowly he felt the life being drained out of him and he didn't even know why. Red Pony felt the fight go out of the man and she rocked her arms slowly back and forth to add even more power to her squeeze. The man's eyes began to flutter and then his arms fell away and then she felt him go limp. She rocked her arms a few more times for good measure and then she let the man go and he crumbled face down to the ground completely unconscious. She could have killed him easily but that was not her intent. All she wanted was his horse but she did let out with a loud war cry to celebrate her easy victory over the Pyutu. She looked at the man for a moment but she could not see his face. Then she went and retrieved his horse. She took off the saddle and discarded it thinking silly white men why do they ride on such a useless thing and then she went through his saddle bags. She found some food and a canteen of water, a large knife for skinning, and other useful objects and decided to keep the bags. When she was ready to leave she walked the horse past the man and stopped for a moment contemplating him before she took off for the cabin. Her curiosity got the best of her and she decided to turn the man over. When she did she was truly astonished. The man was even more handsome close up. Red Pony bent down and touched the unconscious man's short growth of beard. The hairs felt so soft to the touch that his face was unlike any other man she had ever known. He was unique and she really liked that but it made her lonely and for the first time since she left the Apache encampment she felt alone. Then she felt even worse when she realized out here he'd probably die without his horse. That too was an unbearable thought. As she stared down at the unconscious man a simple solution came to her. She could take the man with her. He would be company for her through the long winter to come and she would be much less lonely. He was a pretty man and that made her loins stir uneasily. She could think of snowy nights with their body's entwined making hot passionate love and the man satisfying her many needs as they lay both safe and comfortable within the cabin. She had been without a man far too long. He wouldn't be of much use hunting and fishing but he would be useful for the long nights ahead and that thought made her smile. There in the cabin I would be the chief and he will be my squaw and that thought pleased her. I will rule him like the men of my tribe rule their women and she smiled at the thought too. He would be no trouble at the cabin. She had already tested his strength and she knew she was far stronger than he was. She would even enjoy taming him through the long winter months ahead, and maybe just maybe she would take him with her in the spring. That thought put a smile on her face and she pulled his rope from the horse and cut off some smaller pieces and tied his hands behind his back and bound his feet as well. When he was prepared she bent down and with unbelievable strength for a female hoisted the man easily across his horse and then she jumped on behind him. Smiling Red Pony took off toward the cabin on the mountain but now she was excited about the days ahead. The pretty white man would keep her company and dance to her tune. When Hank regained consciousness it took him a few seconds to become awake and alert. He felt the motion of the horse as it galloped along and it was disorienting at first. When his eyes focused he was looking down at the ground and it was moving. It took him a few seconds more to realize that he was slung over a horse and looking at the ground. When he tried to move he realized his hands and feet were bound and he couldn't really move them. What in the hell is going on he thought? Then he remembered the fight and realized he had been knocked from his horse and subsequently lost a fight to an unknown assailant. His captor had slung him over a horse and was taking him somewhere. It all fit together and at the moment he was just happy to be alive. Turning his head more he was able to see a leg butted up next to his body. When he focused on the bottom part of the leg it was the most stunning revelation yet. The leg was bare at the ankle but that what was more amazing was the fact that it was extremely shapely. As his eyes moved upward he could also see a smooth bare lower leg as well. The calf was extremely muscular but that did not take away from its strange allure. As he focused on it more he realized the leg was long and smooth as can be, extremely tantalizing to look at, and undeniably female. That fascinated him till the realization hit him that he had been overpowered by a woman, tied up like a calf before branding, and slung over his own horse. Still higher up on her leg he could see that she had a sheath strapped to her thigh and in it was a knife. It was a sexy sight to behold but he had to fight back those thoughts and he said to himself man if I could only get to that knife, but his hands were tied behind his back. Then he realized he had been overpowered by some type of warrior woman. Just then he remembered he had noticed something moments before and his mind had overlooked it as he stared at her leg. Lowering his gaze below her ankle he focused on her feet and realized that the woman was wearing moccasins. She was an Indian. Panic overtook him and he yelled up at his captor, "Where are you taking me?" He got a sharp reply in Apache. "Nenundo Sequanno!" she yelled at him from above in a very menacing but yet very female tone of voice. He wasn't sure what she said but he guessed it was something like shut up and be quiet. So he decided to keep quiet for the moment and think this thing out. He stared at the ground as it whizzed by focusing his thoughts on his present situation and what he thought was going to happen didn't make him very happy. Hank was beside himself. He reasoned that he was being taken to this Indian maiden's camp where he'd be tortured in some grizzly manner for an extended period of time and eventually killed, but first he'd have to endure the laughter from the squaws and braves when they saw that a young Apache maiden had captured him and brought him back in this embarrassing fashion. That would almost be worse than dying he thought. The remainder of the short journey Hank kept quiet steeling himself for the nightmare that was in his future. Although the ground they were traversing was mountainous and not the type of place where he would expect an Indian encampment to be located. When the horse finally stopped and the female warrior got off Hank picked his head up as far as he could and looked around. He was surprised to see that he was not at an Indian encampment. Instead, he could see a cabin and a small barn adjacent to it. That's when the female momentarily came into view and interrupted his train of thought. He just got a quick glimpse of her as she moved by but what he saw amazed him. She was tall and she was wearing what one would expect from an Indian maiden. Her clothing was very skimpy and the leather outfit ended high up on her thighs exposing a lot of sexy bare leg and the leather was cut on one leg exposing even more delectable thigh. She also had on a headband with one eagle feather protruding from it on the back of her head. Even though he got just a glimpse of her as she walked by he saw enough to know that she was extremely beautiful with light red skin, large breasts, and that she was also quite young. Hank reckoned that she was in her late teens or early twenties and that made him even more embarrassed when he realized that he had been bested by such a young girl. His thoughts were cut short when Red Pony walked up to the horse and pulled him off of it and easily placed the slim white man over her shoulder and carried him into the cabin. Hank was totally amazed at the sheer strength of this young woman. She was carrying him over her shoulder with no apparent difficulty and she was walking fast as if the extra burden made no difference to her as she moved. To Hank it was a sobering experience as she carried him into the cabin and laid him on the floor next to the fireplace. This young Indian maiden had phenomenal strength. She was easily the strongest woman he had ever seen. He had hoped to catch her by surprise and to overpower her and get away. Now he was not so sure he could best her in a fight and to a man that was an embarrassing thought. After she laid him down Red Pony squatted next to him and stared at the pretty white man looking intently at his strangely expressive face. Hank had a view of her amazing legs and he openly stared at them for a moment before his gaze turned upward and he looked at his captor. She was even more beautiful close up. Hank thought she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen and that was saying a lot because he had been to San Francisco in his youth. Her face was that of an Indian but what an Indian. She had a long face, high cheek bones, piercing eyes and large lips. She was a sight to behold he thought as they stared at each other for a moment. Then Red Pony placed her hand on the side of his face and stroked it gently as she talked in her native tongue. "Uva Red Pony!" she told him as she took her other hand and pointed a finger at her bosom. It only took a second for Hank to realize that she was trying to tell him her name and he said Red Pony back to her which made her smile. Then he said very slowly, "Me Hank ... Hank Ketchum!" Red Pony turned her head in a sexy manner as she listened and then she said back, "HNK ... Hnk Catchim!" "Hank ... Ketchum!" he said back to her very phonetically as he slowly pronounced his name once more. "This time she said his name better. "HANNNK ... ..KETCHUMMM!" she said slowly in that sexy voice of hers, and then she said his first name again and got it right. "HANK!" Pointing to her she said, "Red Pony!" and then she pointed to him saying, "Hank Ketchum!" and then she gave him a big glorious smile. As she spoke to him Hank thought this didn't seem like someone who was about to torture and kill him. She was stroking his face as if she liked him and that didn't seem right either. He thought she was beautiful but of course he was a man and men were weak in such matters. Still, he couldn't figure out what she wanted from him or what she was going to do with him for that matter. After their brief conversation Red Pony stood up and looked down at the man for a moment still staring at him intently. Hank did the same and stared up at this breathtaking Indian maiden. She looked so beautiful and so amazing standing there above him that he couldn't help admiring what he saw. That's when he realized for the first time just how tall she was. As he stared openly at her magnificent body he realized she had to be a good head taller than he was. She was not only beautiful and extremely strong she was also very tall. Much taller than him and he was not a short man by anyone's standard. He wasn't a six footer but he usually didn't get dwarfed by someone else, especially a woman. Before she left she spoke some more incomprehensible words to him in her native tongue and then she left the cabin. Even though he didn't understand the words he felt he was sure about the meaning. She wanted him to stay where he was and not to try and escape. Heck his hands were tied behind his back by an expert and his feet were tied as well. He realized he wasn't going anywhere anytime soon. Over the next few hours he saw Red Pony enter and exit the cabin many times and she was very busy. She brought in his saddle bags and emptied them on the table. Next he saw her reach for the axe next to the door and carry it outside. About an hour later she brought in a lot of wood making several trips to bring it all in, and she stacked it carefully next to the fireplace. That was a lot of wood Hank thought. Too much for just a one night stay. He had thought they would spend the night here and then she would take him to her camp, but now he wasn't so sure. Red Pony seemed friendly and that just confused him even more. On her last trip into the cabin with the wood she had brought in a birch rod as well. She placed the wood down and then she looked at the rod carefully for a few moments, swung it several times, and then laid it on the table glimpsing at Hank as she did so. Hank was watching her very intently and he thought the rod was about a foot in length and it had been carefully stripped of its leaves and anything thing else that prevented it from being a very straight stick. Hank remembered his mom used to hit him with one when he was bad in his youth, and that thought scared the hell out of him. Was she going to use that on him? Next on her agenda she stared at the cot in the corner for a few moments. As she did so Red Pony thought why do white men sleep on something that looks so uncomfortable? Taking the cot in her hands she pulled off the cover and sheets which would prove useful and then she carried the cot outside, walked far from the cabin, and discarded the useless thing in the woods. When she walked back she entered the barn instead of the cabin. She had already bedded down the horse for the night and when she did she was happy to see that there was more than enough bales of hay to feed him through the long winter months ahead. Grabbing one of the bales she hoisted it on to her shoulder and walked back to the cabin. It was heavy but she liked the weight of it and the tension it brought to her muscles. Red Pony loved to exercise her muscles every chance she got. It was one of the reasons she was so strong and she was still feeling exhilarated from chopping all that wood with the white man's axe. As she used the axe she remembered thinking it was one of the few useful tools they had brought with them from the east. Hank was stunned when she walked in the door carrying a large bale of hay on her shoulder. He wasn't certain that he could carry that bale of hay like she was doing. She threw the bale down where the cot used to be an then arranged the hay all over the floor. When she was done she stared at the hay for a moment and then she left and got another bale. Hank had to admit the hay did look comfortable when she was through arranging it. Then she said something to him which he did not get the meaning off till she strapped the knife back to her leg and placed the bow and quiver of arrows across her shoulders. She stared at him for a moment and then left the cabin. He was fairly certain she was going hunting. He just hoped she was as good a hunter as she was a fighter because he was really hungry. Several hours passed and he was growing very uncomfortable lying there on the floor. When the next thing he knew the door swung open and Red Pony was standing there before him in all her magnificent glory and she stared at him as he stared back at her. She had a dead buck slung across her shoulders and she looked truly magnificent standing there in the doorway. Hank could only guess how much the deer weighed but he knew it weighed a lot probably several hundred pounds and she had carried it some distance as well. He was truly in awe of her and her many abilities. She was quite easily the most amazing female he had ever encountered in his entire life. Red Pony stared at him for a few moments more and she was relieved to see that he was still trussed up just the way she left him. Then she made her way to the barn to slaughter the dear and hang it up and preserve it for the days to come. About an hour later she brought a large piece in to cook for dinner. After she had started the fire and placed the meat on the spit she heard the man say, "Red Pony I have to pee!" Turning to him she tilted her head several times as if she was trying to understand what he had just said. Then to Hank's great relief she started to untie his feet but she did not untie his hands. When she had untied him and his feet were free he heard her say in a sharp voice, "Quattle ... Matto Redato!" Somehow he understood her words to mean try and stand and he did so slowly. As Hank stood he was amazed that they did not speak the same language but each seemed to intuitively know what the other was saying. When he was on his feet Red Pony walked quickly over to the table and retrieved the birch rod. As she did Hank contemplated running but his legs were unsteady from being trussed up and his hands were still tied. He didn't think if he ran now he'd get very far and then there'd be hell to pay. When Red Pony returned she grabbed the back of his neck with her free hand and with the other she waived the birch rod in front of his eyes in a threatening manner. Then she barked out an order and pointed toward the door with the stick. "Illum Cotum Predono!" she told him sternly as she pointed to the door. Her fingers were very powerful and he felt a sharp pain as they bit into the back of his neck and Hank realized that the stick waving and the neck clamp was a powerful reminder as to what would happen if he tried to disobey her on the way to the woods. She slowly led him out of the cabin, with her hand still clamped around the back of his neck, towards the woods several yards away. When they reached the base of a large tree she put the stick in her mouth and reached down and unzipped his pants. Then to Hanks great surprise she reached in with her hand and pulled out his manhood. Barking out another order she told him, "Balto!" He took that to mean pee but he was having trouble. His penis was being held by her hand and it was disconcerting to say the least. No mater how hard he tried even though he had to go badly just a few moments before he could not pee. A few moments more passed with no success and then he heard her say in an even more forceful voice, "BALTO!" "I'm trying," he told her and then he felt even more pressure from her strong hand on the back of his neck. The pressure became so intense on the back of his neck that he wasn't sure if that wasn't the cause of his problems. Finally, Hank just closed his eyes and tried to block out the pain and the feel of her hand on his penis and he just let go and it worked. Soon a long stream of pee was hitting the tree and it felt so good. As the man peed Red Pony watched the show pleased at the fact that the man was well endowed. She had been led to believe that Apache men had shafts twice as long as a white mans. That must have been a silly tale because here was clear evidence to the contrary. As she held his shaft as he peed she wondered what other things about white men that she had been led to believe were also untrue. The man peed for a very long time and she eased up on her neck pinch as he quickly finished his business. When he was done she led him back into the house. It was time she untied his hands. She knew he would do something very foolish as soon as his hands were free, but it was time to show him who was chief of this teepee. When they were inside she pointed to a chair with her birch rod and he sat down in it. Then she reached behind him and untied his hands. Hank was really surprised when she untied his hands but this was a very good development he thought. As soon as they were free he began to rub his wrists trying to bring the circulation back to his hands as he looked up at her. In a calm voice as he rubbed his wrists he said to Red Pony, "What are you going to do with me?" She tilted her head in that sexy manner of hers that she often used whenever he spoke but this time she did not understand him he was sure. Instead, she moved away from him barring his path to the door and just stood there smiling at him. To Hank it seemed like she was saying just try something. She's taunting me he thought and he got up and walked toward the door. When he reached the door she put her hand on the door frame barring his way, and with a big smile on her face she shook her head back and forth indicating to Hank that he would not be allowed to pass. He was standing next to her and she towered over his smaller frame but he was the man and he would not be intimidated by her, but at that moment she was holding that birch rod and that made him think twice before reacting. Red Pony saw his reaction to the stick and then to make him understand how truly helpless he was against her she took the stick and threw it in the corner. That maneuver caught Hank completely by surprise and he stared at it for a few moments and then he reacted. He tried to plow past her but she was quicker and she grabbed his shoulders and the next thing he knew he was flying through the air. Red Pony had tossed him toward the hay so that he would have a soft landing. Just an instant after he landed in a heap in the hay Red Pony was all over him but she wasn't angry. Instead, she was laughing uproariously as they struggled for supremacy in the hay. Why is she laughing Hank wondered as he struggled with her arms as she pinned him underneath her massive body? She must think I'm not much of a threat he thought angrily. Well, I'll show her he said to himself with great resolve as he tried to grab on to her arms and push her off of him. To Red Pony this was fun. She truly loved to wrestle and she had not wrestled with males since she was younger. She remembered how all the young bucks soon shied away from her when she proved that she was clearly superior to all of them. Now she had another male in her grasp and he could not run or make fun of her like the others did. As she pinned him underneath her and gained control of his arms she thought she would have much fun wrestling with his inferior body in the future but for now she had to show him who was chief here in this place. Grabbing his wrists she moved both of his arms over his head as she lay out lengthwise above him and when she was in place she wound her long legs around his and stretched them out. Her actions stretched out Hank's ligaments and tendons painfully in his legs as she held him in a classic grapevine. It was one of Red Pony's favorite maneuvers when she wrestled, and the Indian's called this hold the, "Tika Wakka!" or leg lock. As she cinched in the hold with her powerful legs she could see the pain on the man's face. Don't worry I won't hurt you she thought to herself as an urge overcame her and she leaned in and kissed his lips even as she held him helpless beneath her. Hank didn't know what to be more amazed about as he fought with his antagonist, her sheer strength, her amazing fighting ability, or the sensual kiss she had just laid on his lips. She's toying with me he thought shamefully as he lay completely helpless underneath her. Then he realized something for the first time and it stunned and amazed him. What if she wasn't taking me to her camp to be killed but instead she was going to keep me here as her love slave? That just couldn't be he thought but as he looked up at her she was again laughing and smiling at him playfully. She clearly was enjoying herself and someone just doesn't kiss their enemy and then callously kill them. When she had him completely helpless with his arms pinned by hers above his head and his legs controlled by hers as well she stopped fighting and just held him that way like a trophy for a long time. Her look was very strange. It was like she was looking at her lover and not at her captive. Then she bent lower and kissed him again very slowly and very sensually. The kiss lasted an eternity and when it was over Hank was dragged to his feet, his wrists were pinned together, and she was holding them captive with just one of her hands as she led him like a puppy dog to the table. Hank tried to free his hands but just one of her hands was enough to keep his wrists tightly pinned together. As she casually walked to the table with Hank trailing behind she reached for the two lengths of rope and she turned and easily tied his hands together in front of him despite his best efforts at stopping her. When they had been secured she pushed him backwards and he fell back into the hay. As soon as he was down she tied his feet together and Hank found himself trussed up once more. This time she tapped his cheek playfully and smiled at him before she got up and left the cabin. Even though his hands were in front of him he could not get out of his bonds. She was just too good at tying secure knots. A few moments later Red Pony rolled in a large tub from the barn and as Hank watched she brought in dozens of buckets of water to fill it. Her efforts had to take an hour but eventually the tub was full. It dawned on Hank fairly early in her labors that she was filling the tub to take a bath and that excited him even though she had made him her captive. Her next concern was the food and she checked it and turned it as he watched her work with the meat from his position on the hay. It took a half hour more but the meat was finally done. Instead of untying his hands as she had just done with his legs Red Pony fed him water by the table from a cup. Then she fed him pieces of meat which he had to take from her hand with his mouth. As he ate it she continued to smile at him and watch him carefully. The deer meat was excellent and he ate a lot of it. When he was done eating Red Pony ate the rest of the meat tearing it apart with her white teeth. She ate it so voraciously and so devoid of manners that she looked just like a savage to him as she ate her food. Yet even these actions of hers turned him on as he watched her eat. She was truly one incredible female. As Red Pony ate Hank noticed that it had gotten dark outside and he was growing tired but this long day was nowhere near over. After the meal they both sat by the fire and bathed in its ambiance, but still Red Pony did not untie his hands. For a little while even though they didn't speak Hank felt more like a man than he had for some time. Then unexpectedly Red Pony got up and started to take off her clothes. Hank watched with bated breath as she first slipped off her moccasins, then her leather dress, and finally her head band and feather. When she was standing naked before him Hank couldn't help but stare unabashedly at her incredible body. Some women looked better dressed but not Red Pony. She was breathtakingly beautiful in her birthday suit and Hank's breath caught in his throat as he stared at her. She had firm full breasts perfectly formed and shaped, a lush body that tapered down elegantly to her waist and took his breath away. A firm flat tummy that flared out into the shapeliest hips Hank had ever seen. Extremely long lovely legs that were incredibly firm and meaty yet totally amazing to look at. A face to die for and soft brown hair that was as pretty as any he had seen on any society lady. She was a vision standing before him in all her naked glory. Then as if he wasn't there she stepped into the tub and began to bathe herself. If his hands weren't tied and the door had been wide open and the tub not baring his way Hank wasn't sure if he could have left at that moment he was so engrossed in what he was seeing play out before him. Red Pony was that captivating. As she bathed she thought of the man but still ignored him. Let him look she thought. She was not the least bit ashamed of her body and she knew she had his complete attention and that pleased her. As she washed the days grime off her body she thought about how much fun it would be if he was in the tub with her. Why not she thought. He must do as I say. I am the chief here and she stepped out of the tub exhilarating in the warmth she felt from the fire. She stood there next to him for a moment as he stared hungrily up at her body and then she bent down and untied his hands and led him over to the tub. Hank thought she wanted him to wash her but he was wrong. Speaking to him in Apache that she wanted him in the tub he looked at her for a moment and then as recognition of what she wanted spread across his face he shook his head no and said, "I don't take baths ... never cared for them one bit!" he told her. As always they somehow understood each other and as soon as he was done with his defiant statement she proceeded to change his mind. Grabbing his arm in a lightening quick move she bent it behind his back and then she grabbed his hair and shoved his face down into the tub of bath water. She held it there for a second and then she pulled him up and again spoke to him in Apache once more. When she was done he said just as defiantly, "NO BATH!" Again his head was shoved downwards till it was submerged under grimy bath water. This time she held him down longer. She was not mad at him. She actually enjoyed his defiance. It told her he was a real man, but a man who could not hope to cope with her. Red Pony knew how extraordinary she was and her easy handling of him did not diminish him any in her eyes. She had to submerge his head a third, a forth, and even a fifth time before he finally relented. "Ok ... Ok I'll get in the tube ... just ease up will you?" he told her in a defeated voice. Maybe it was the tenor of his voice, but she knew he had relented. Still, she still held him cautiously by the back of the neck as he slipped out of his clothes. He stunk and his clothes stunk but he was a man after all and all men hated baths. She would bathe him and tomorrow she would wash the grime out of their clothes by pounding them with a rock by the stream. Then he would smell better with his clothes on, but tonight she would keep him naked and he would be clean and he would smell better too and that pleased her. When he balked at taking off his underclothes she simply squeezed the back of his neck till he complied and then she let him go. When he was as naked as her he suddenly got embarrassed and he placed his hands in front of his genitals trying to hide them from view. Red Pony reacted by knocking them away with her hand several times till he got the message and kept his hands away. Then she just stared at his penis without shame for a very long time. It was long and hard. He obviously was aroused by her and that made her very happy. When she had admired him long enough she motioned for him to get in the tub. He stuck one foot in and immediately pulled it out yelling, "YEOW! THAT'S COLD!" Her response was not sympathetic and she grabbed him and dumped him head first into the water. When his head came up she was already next to him in the tub. "TOO COLD!" he yelped and she placed her hand on the top of his head and submerged him again. "Ok ... Ok," he told her in that same defeated voice. "You win ... I'm in the tub but at least let me wash you off," he said as he picked up a rag that was hanging from the lip of the tub and tried to wipe off her breasts. That got the angriest response from her yet and she slapped his hand away and then she raised a hand menacingly like she was going to hit him with it, and then she pointed to the birch rod in the corner and said something in Apache to him. He got her message. If he touched her again without her permission there'd be hell to pay. "Ok ... Ok I'll do what you want," he told her in a frustrated voice. What Red Pony wanted to do was bathe him. She took the rag and started to wash his body with it. As soon as she touched him she felt him shiver and she knew it wasn't from the cold and that too pleased her. Slowly she washed his entire body even his short beard with Hank protesting several more times but an angry look or a firm command or a menacing hand soon brought him back into line. Red Pony had saved the best for last and she grabbed on to his pole and started to bathe that as well. "Oh Lord!" Hank gasped, "Better hurry I don't know how long I can hold out!" he told her. Her response was too continue holding on to his pole but she brought her arm up menacingly with the palm of her hand just inches from his face and held it there for a moment. Hank got the message. He was to hold back the flood or he would pay and pay dearly. "Oh Lord help me," he begged as he closed his eyes and grimaced trying to desperately keep from losing it. Red Pony smiled at his discomfort and then she proceeded to slowly wipe his pole with the wet rag very slowly making sure not to miss a single spot. It took super human effort on Hank's part but he managed to control himself till she was done to his great relief. His bath lasted nearly a half hour and then she handed him the rag and pointed at her breasts with her finger. Hank was one happy man as he slowly wiped her breasts off and that wasn't the end of it either. In turn, Red pony pointed to her amazing legs, her stomach, and even her butt which Hank dutifully cleaned. When he was done they both got out of the tub and Hank began to shiver uncontrollably. Red Pony grabbed his blanket, sat down by the fire, and motioned for him to sit next to her. When he did she threw the blanket over him, wrapped him in it, and pulled him so that he was sitting on her lap. The experience was quite delightful and Hank could have cared less how it might have looked. Besides, no one was around but her and him anyway. Hank was wrapped up snugly in the blanket by the warm fire and she held him firmly in her embrace as he sat on her lap. To Hank he had died and gone to heaven and he stopped shivering almost immediately. As she held him she spoke soft and soothing words to him in that delightful voice of hers. He didn't know what she was saying but she seemed quite happy as was he and that's all that mattered. She held him like that for almost an hour and then she abruptly stood up taking Hank along with her so that when she was standing he found himself carried in her strong arms. She carried him over to the hay and then gently laid him down in it and then she walked over to the lamp and blew out the light. The next thing he knew he was in her arms in the dark. Then the love making really ignited and they kissed and hugged for what seemed like an eternity. Her sweet breath and soft body and even softer lips igniting a deep passion within him almost a hunger that he had never felt before. Then she was on top of him and he was in her and she was thrusting her body rhythmically above him and yelling something in Apache at the top of her lungs. As they made love they both were carried to even greater heights until they both had a fantastic orgasm almost simultaneously nearly five minutes later. Hank was totally spent and he could hardly move as he rested on his side away from her. The next thing he knew Red Pony leaned in and kissed his cheek from behind. That made him smile but his smile was only momentary as he felt her one leg snake under him as the other wound around his midsection from above. When her legs had his waist encircled she clamped her legs loosely around him then locked her legs together at the ankles so that she held him in sort of a loose bodyscissors. The next thing he knew her hands were tugging on him moving his body closer to hers, and then she tightened her legs even more. She kissed his cheek from behind and issued him a warning. He thought it was a warning from her tone of voice but he couldn't be sure. Then felt her legs tighten to the point that they bit into his waist and caused him some pain but the pain was only momentary as she eased up almost immediately. Yep, that was a warning alright he thought. He may not of understood her words but the pressure and pain he felt from her legs was very plain to read. Red Pony was going to sleep with her legs wrapped tightly around him. It was her way of putting in place an early warning system if he tried to move away during the night. Rather ingenious he thought as he rested cautiously between her legs. He wasn't going anywhere and sleeping with her legs wrapped around him was really quite pleasant as long as he didn't make any sudden moves. The next morning was more of the same. First, she tied his arms and legs back up and then took his boots and walked outside with them. When she came back they were no longer with her. He wasn't sure if she just threw them away or if she hid them. In any case he wasn't going anywhere without his boots. As he watched her he remembered a friend of his saying that women should be kept barefoot and pregnant to which he always laughed. Now he was the one barefoot and a captive to boot and he shook his head and smiled at the joke. Next, she emptied the tub and rolled it outside presumably to the barn. Then she fed him and then carried him in her arms still tied over half a mile away to the stream where she sat him down with his back leaning up against a tree. They were both still naked but out here that didn't matter and it was still warm enough so that being naked was not all that unpleasant. She then retraced her steps and brought back their clothes and she took her time and washed them thoroughly beating them with a large stone till they were very clean. Next as he looked on from the tree she fashioned a spear with her knife and in the next half hour impaled several large trout with it. She took them back to the cabin and then the clothes and then she came back for Hank and carried him back as well. Once inside he watched her clean and gut the fish and then they were roasting on the fire. They smelled great and after making sure they were roasting properly she slipped her dress back on, her moccasins as well, and then her head band with the feather too. She was dressed but it didn't take long for Hank to realize she wasn't going to throw him his clothes. Instead, she hung them up over a chair near the fire to thoroughly dry. During this time as they ate she was much more talkative. He only understood about half of what she was trying to say but she used her hands too and the primitive sign language helped his understanding immensely. As he watched her Hank was enchanted. She was so animated when she talked and so beautiful too that he felt himself falling for this big Indian maiden who had taken him captive. Over the next few days their routine never varied. Red Pony would disappear for several hours each day and come back with fish or other game and they would eat like kings. She never tired of showing Hank who was boss either. She liked to wrestle with him their bodies naked as they rolled around in the hay by the warm fire. He would have to endure holds for hours on end as she kept him prisoner in her firm embrace, but she never once hurt him, and Hank loved to be wrapped up in her big beautiful body. He tried to make her think that he didn't like wrestling with her, but he suspected Red Pony new the truth, and his stiff pecker was a tell tale sign anyway . Since his confinement in the cabin Hank never once came close to getting the best of her, but he instinctively knew that it didn't seem to diminish him in Red Pony's eyes, and that pleased Hank immensely. Several times he broke her strict rules and she would take him over her knee and spank him either with her hand or the birch rod if the transgression was deemed major by Red Pony. She always smiled afterwards when she saw that he had a giant boner after his discipline. Sometimes she would vary his training by using her legs or she would just hug him tightly to her by the fire till he moaned softly in her firm embrace. To Red Pony this training was necessary to reinforce in his mind just who was chief and soon his annoying little pranks were a thing of the past. Red Pony soon realized that it did not take much of her strength to hold him at bay and she made sure to use just enough of her immense power to contain him and to show him who was completely in charge. The last thing he would do every night before they went to bed was to play the harmonica for her as they sat comfortably by the fire. She truly loved its melodious sound and he enjoyed playing it for her. She would try to play it every so often but they both would laugh when the sounds that came out of it were generally awful on the ears. The best time of the day was at night for Hank. That's when their marathon lovemaking took place. It was energetic and athletic and very noisy and it would leave Hank totally spent and completely satisfied. He would always sleep late after their marathon bouts and that was just fine with Red Pony because she did all the work anyhow. She would often be gone when he finally awoke and he always found that his hands and feet were again tied, but that no longer bothered him. Somewhere into the second week of his captivity Red Pony untied his arms and legs for the last time. Then she went into a lengthily conversation afterward spiced with threatening gestures and hand signs and inflected language and Hank immediately understood that he was no longer going to be tied when she went outside. However, she made it real clear what would happen if he tried to escape. After her speech he nodded his ascent to her wishes and hung his head. Red Pony took her hand and placed it under his chin and lifted his head so that he could see her smiling face. Then she drew him closer, wrapped both of her arms around his head and neck, and planted a very passionate and very possessive kiss on his lips. Afterward she looked at him with heavy lidded eyes and said in a soft melodic voice, "Hnk Otawa Red Pony!" He knew what the statement meant. She had told him that he belonged to her and he parroted back without hesitating, "Hank Otawa Red Pony!" That made her smile and she wrapped him up in her arms once more and laid an even more passionate kiss on his lips. The tub was kept filled in the barn and they would take long drawn out baths every third or fourth day. It was getting nippy outside and the water was extremely cold but Hank seemed to be getting used to the cold water till one day the water froze and their baths ended. The baths thrilled and excited Hank and he had grown to love them. It was clearly his second favorite activity with Red Pony. Although he always complained when they wrestled he truly loved that as well, and he liked all the cuddling and hugging too even if it was disciplinary in nature. Red Pony seemed oblivious to the cold. And she continued to hunt and bring the water in. She even improvised a sponge bath for her and Hank every night and that was almost as good as the real thing Hank thought. Several times he asked her if he could go hunting with her but she would always point to his bare feet and he reluctantly would always shake his head like he understood. Then one day she brought his boots back in and placed them by the fire. He was happy that she had not thrown them away and he immediately asked her if he could go hunting with her. Surprisingly she shook her head no and then raised her hand menacingly in a threatening gesture. Hank was forced to agree with her. Red Pony had the annoying habit of raising her hand up like that whenever she required an answer from Hank. He thought it was just her way of letting him know who wore the pants and the shoes in their relationship. As the days turned into weeks the first big snow finally came and isolated them in the cabin. The horse was well fed in the barn and he had plenty of water so their days were spent wrestling, cuddling by the fire, and making love and not much else. To Hank it was like he had died and gone to heaven and he suspected that Red Pony enjoyed their routine almost as much as he did. Hank was almost upset when a thaw hit and much of the snow would melt. That would take Red Pony away for hours on end and that deeply saddened him for he knew somewhere along the line he had fallen deeply in love with this beautiful and strong Indian maiden. As the weeks turned into months their bond grew stronger and stronger till they both knew they were now mated for life and that pleased them both. Then one day she brought him his boots and they both went on the hunt. She still did all the heavy lifting but Hank was just happy to be outside and to tag along. She would always carry the deer back and that was fine with Hank and he knew he wouldn't care one iota if anyone found out about their true relationship. It just didn't matter and people be damned. The spring finally came and Red Pony grew restless. She wanted to leave but Hank was happy with their idyllic life in the cabin. Their arguments were usually very short. Red Pony would tell Hank what they were going to do and then she would lift up her right hand in a menacing fashion till Hank agreed with her, and then they would do what she wanted to do all along. The next day Red Pony made it clear to Hank they would be back in the cabin for winter but for the next few months they would ride wild and free on the open range living off the land in Indian fashion, and maybe they would even visit her tribe. The horse was packed and Red Pony mounted it first and took the reins. Then she looked down at Hank and offered him her hand which he took and she hoisted him up him up quite easily so that he could ride behind her. He put his arms around her waist and held her very tightly to which Red Pony smiled and said something to him in Apache that he didn't quite catch. Then they took off and rode out into their new life leaving the cabin far behind. The End
