Chasing the Texas Wind Page 25
“Yes, it is a dancing leg,” Maeve whispered in Ham’s ear as they grabbed hands and swung close for a moment. “A beautiful one. I’ve wished for this since our reception in Rio Grande City. I did so want to dance with you, and I never thought it would be possible.”
“Well, I’m not the dancer I used to be,” Ham sniffed. “You should have seen me at the military ball. I was on all the girls’ dance cards. Sometimes I had to change partners two or three times in one dance just to keep tears of disappointment from flowing.”
“Really,” Maeve said.
No,” Ham admitted. “I’m a better dancer with Obed’s Opus than I ever was with two legs. Girls used to move their toes out of range when I just entered a room.”
“We didn’t win the war, but we won a big victory all the same,” Maeve said. “Especially the battle of Palacio Del Oro, fought by Lieutenant Colonel Hamilton Jessup. It was a long, hard fight, but he’s enjoying the spoils now, I think.”
“Oh, so much,” Ham whispered.
