221 Murky side of the forest

The horses continued to gallop, keeping a small distance from each other as they moved past the trees in the forest, with Eve and Vincent riding on each of them. 

Lady Aubrey had never stopped her from learning things men knew, while most elders didn't allow their girls to ride on the horses and preferred they learned to be good at housework and be a good wife and daughter-in-law. Though Eve did learn to sit on the horse when she was eleven, as years went by, she took the horse along with Eugene to the fields before they rode on it. 

A smile spread on Eve's lips as she moved against the wind, and pieces of her hair pulled out of her ponytail to fly on the sides of her temple.
