    About this ebook

    Manuela, young, feminine and sensual, moved to New Genoa. She is the new teacher. She takes her students to visit the Freedom, a genetic improvement farm. There, they learn about breeds, beef cuts, selection and evolution. They also know Cowboi, strong, almost a bull, Mariana’s favorite cow.
    Mariana is also beautiful, more a slim type, specialist in genetics and reproduction, passionate by horses and races. She is engaged to Julian, the administrator of Freedom and godson of Juvencio, Mariana's father and owner of everything.
    One day, Juliano has an accident. Seriously hurt, he is absent, escorted by Juvencio. Mariana takes Freedom’s management and occupies her rightful place. She and Manuela, they share their frustrations, their anxieties. Mariana entertains her friend with her theories about the differences in the evolution of men and women, sexuality and behavior. She always has an explanation for everything. They find themselves naturally close. No guilt, no sin. A miracle? Cowboi’s spirit?

      – Eagle 4, please reply, this is Sao Paulo.

      – Go ahead, Sao Paulo, this is Eagle 4.

      – Routine check, can you tell me the mission code?

      – 358.

      – Ok, understood, thank you. How are you guys?

      – All quiet, soon we’ll have visual contact with the prison in Riolandia, our passengers are doing well, collaborative, I think we'll finish the mission on time.

      – Oh boy, here is so boring, I wish I was there.

      – Well, we can’t complain, weather is great, I’ve just flown over the city where I was born, I wish you had our view, it rained and the fields are green. We’re flying over the Freedom Ranch, looks like a garden. The woods, the river dams, the cattle, all white, what a beautiful thing to see!

      – Wow!

      – You know, I spent some time in Colorado USA, training. Of course it’s also nice, but not the same, the cattle stays in barns. The cows aren’t white, they are brown, they came from England. Not from India, like here. But the meat! Oh boy, there, beef is so tender and juicy.

      – Stop, I am drooling!

      – Look! A pickup leaves the farmhouse going to the village making dust rollers on the dirty road. What a crazy driving! So early in the morning... Something serious must have happened.

      Field day

      Juliano was half asleep on the horse’s back. Oh boy, this is boring. In the next months, at the beginning and the end of each day, raining, shining, holiday, holy day, he will be there, circulating among the cows. Doing what? Checking who is ready for insemination.

      It was not complicated, after years there, cowboys know each cow, they put nicknames on them. The hard part is finding someone responsible and disciplined to get the job donne.

      Juliano was born on the farm. His father was the earlier administrator, some college, agricultural technician, replaced his father since his death. Our days, he is the right-hand man for Juvencio, the owner.

      Slow morning today, few cows show estrus. One or two have already been inseminated, but are in heat again, this is bad, a sign that they don’t get pregnant in the first attempt. But okay, the beginnings are all the same, kind of slow.

      – Jurandir – shouts to his partner – Do you see? One teaser [term used to describe animals prepared to find the cows who are at fertile period without inseminate them] is over the cow, that one with the broken horn, go
