One-Eyed Jack

By Connie Wilkins, illustration by Noel Bebee

6 August 2001

He might have been reduced to one eye, one arm, and scarcely more than one

good leg, but Lightning Jack lacked nothing in between. Nothing at all. Half a

man? Miss Lily's first impression had been wildly off target. Two or three men put

together (and of course you never could put the good bits together) couldn't

equal his endowment.

No one judged better in these matters than Miss Lily, better known as The

Schoolmarm.

Not that she often took gentlemen into her own bed these days. She might, for

a substantial fee, apply her other, very specialized skills where they would do the

most good; but any customer with the fortitude to seek a bedmate after Miss

Lily had latticed his hairy butt with her lash could make do with one of her girls.

Jack, though, was an investment. An unwise one, she had feared, watching him

hobble from the train; but an investment nonetheless. And rumor insisted that

he still possessed that legendary aim and speed, and a gun with new notches

earned only weeks ago.

More certain was the cold fire of revenge consuming him. Miss Lily understood

the power of that fire. And, since his enemy was her enemy, she had welcomed

his written offer and guaranteed his personal safety up until the shoot-out, as

well as a handsome fee upon completion, payable to an address in San Francisco

in the event that he was unable to collect it himself.

Jack's personal safety was best guaranteed in The Schoolmarm's well-guarded

establishment. That it required sharing her own opulent rose-and-ivory

bedchamber was less self-evident, but Miss Lily had acquiesced. Something in his

blend of frailty and rage recalled men she had nursed in the war, long ago, before

she had come west to teach and learned a lesson or two herself, the foremost

being that she might as well make men pay for what they were determined to

get anyway, the second that there was no limit to what some men would pay

for.

Miss Lily would have drawn the line at taking her whip to Jack's already-ravaged

body, but she was expert at reading men and doubted that he wanted anything

more than the softest bed in the Territories and maybe a little womanly comfort.

It came as no surprise that before dawn he was sobbing into her ample breasts.

The surprise was that those breasts were heaving as though the Grand Tetons

had been tossed on the waves of an earthquake. It seemed forever until she

could catch her breath, and even then she was still shaken by the best time

she'd had since . . . since . . . but there was no comparison in all her years of

experience.

Lily stroked his scarred face and made soothing sounds and let him fall asleep

atop her, then gently eased him off. She tried to lift the bedclothes just enough

to get a glimpse of what she'd been enjoying, but he gripped the satin comforter

and muttered, "No . . . no . . . please . . . ," so she let him be.
