First Impressions

He came to my rescue, no questions, no hesitation, the one who revealed himself as Robin Hood. Tall, broad, skillful with a bow.

My attackers were dispatched in no time, and he came to release the rope that bound my hands.

He spoke, his voice deep and kind. My pulse raced.

Who was he?

I whirled around. Our eyes met. He smiled.

A genuine smile; one appreciative of my sex, not disdainful of it. It was a look I had not been the recipient of in quite some time. In that moment, the ice around my heart began to thaw.
