“I'm out to change people's attitudes about them. Wolves are a whole lot more than just predators who feast on a rancher's herd. They're smart and clever and loyal and courageours, and sometimes they do really stupid, silly things, just like people.”
R.C. Ryan, Quinn

Viviana Giorgi
“Maggie chiuse gli occhi e contò sino a dieci.
Uno, due, tre…
Se voleva arrivare a casa di sua sorella prima che facesse notte, non aveva altra scelta che chiedere al cowboy di accompagnarla. Certo, avrebbe sempre potuto optare per il motel e attraversare quelle duecento iarde pullulanti di lupi.
Un altro ululato.
No, non avrebbe potuto.
«Lupi» disse Mitch, il braccio sinistro che sporgeva indolente dal finestrino, il mozzicone del sigaro stretto tra le dita.
«Lupi» ripeté lei con un’alzata di spalle, come se si trattasse di barboncini addestrati. Poi mosse un paio di passi esitanti verso il pick-up. Quell’affare era così alto che dovette allungare il collo e sollevare la testa per parlare al cowboy. «Mi chiedevo…» mormorò vincendo ogni residua resistenza.
Lui rimase immobile, se non per il sopracciglio sinistro che scattò verso l’alto.
«… se per caso tu non potessi darmi uno strappo.»
Lui finse di prendere in considerazione la cosa. Poi, con un altro sbuffo di fumo, disse: «Mi sembrava che avessi rifiutato la mia offerta, dieci minuti fa...».
«Perché non intendevo esserti di disturbo» rispose lei come se si stesse rivolgendo alla duchessa di Kent.
E di fatti lui scoppiò a ridere. «Essermi di disturbo? Dopo avermi assalito come un ninja? Ma sarò magnanimo. Dai, sali.»
Maggie tirò un sospiro di sollievo. Era così stanca e infreddolita che anche quel pick-up scassato le parve per un istante una limousine.
«Dove metto la valigia?»
«Buttala dietro, nel cassone.»
Buttare nel cassone la sua Samsonite rosa, costata una cifra improponibile?
«Preferirei sistemarla in cabina, se non ti spiace.»
«In cabina non c’è posto, qua dietro è pieno di roba. A meno che tu preferisca viaggiare nel cassone e la valigia sul sedile…»
Lei rimase zitta, gli occhi sgranati, per nulla certa che quella fosse solo una battuta.
«Ok, ci penso io» tagliò corto lui, aprendo la portiera e scivolando a terra con un balzo. Afferrò il trolley per la maniglia e, senza un’altra parola, lo fece volare nel cassone.
Oh!
Il botto risuonò nelle orecchie di Maggie come una granata.
Risistemandosi lo Stetson sulla testa, il cowboy girò intorno al pick-up e con un sorriso esagerato aprì la portiera del passeggero.
«Sali, sorella di Suzie, o vuoi che dia una mano anche a te?»”
Viviana Giorgi, Tutta colpa del vento
