Cara finally felt like she could breathe again as she watched the Jaguar drive away. While she had been hoping that he would allow her to moved her own things into her room, it seemed he had been feeling chivalrous that day and had carried everything in for her,watching as she put everything away.
Drawing in a deep breath through her nose, she released it slowly from her mouth as she looked around. The man in the office had been correct about her being by herself, but she was happier that way. Torn between heading back inside and finishing an assignment that she needed to post in for marking and exploring, the draw of the horses was too great and after heading inside for a quick change into a pair of pristine beige jodhpurs, cornflower blue polo shirt and pushed her feet into her shiny black paddock boots, she made her way toward the pastures.
"Hello, Élégant." She greeted a stunning stallion gazing not too far from the fence as she walked up. A smile tugged at one side of her mouth as the horse looked up at her before returning to the grass. She rested her hands delicately on the fence post as she looked out into the pasture, taking in everything, the trees, the other horses, the water. The later caused her to shiver slightly, but she quickly turned her attention to the horses, watching them as the grazed, groomed one another, mucked around, doing the normal horse things. It wasn't hard to find the alpha stallion in the pasture, as he controlled the best grazing patches and quickly chased the others off when he wanted to move, and not a one of them defended their spots.
