A knock on the door.

*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK*

Your eyes widen immediately as you hear someone knocking on your door. Yvette's eyes are also wide open when you look at her. You sit up straight and stretch your arms out wondering how long you slept for.

*Knock Knock Knock*

You hear the knock again. You stand and head towards the door.

"Ahem" you hear Yvette clear her throat to get your attention. You look back to her as she sits up with a stretching her arms out as well.

"What is it" you ask her. She giggles and looks you up and down clearly liking what she was seeing. Confused you look down and realize you are only wearing your shirt and nothing else.

"Heh...that would have been fun" you giggle back to her.

"Just a moment" you yell to the door. You locate your pants quickly and try to stuff yourself into them almost falling over when your leg doesn't go through the leg of your pants fully. Yvette giggles as she watches your escapades. You give her a fake glare and stick your tongue out at her once your pants are on and buttoned up.

You walk to the door in bare feet and listen at the door. Intuitively you can sense there are multiple people there. You signal Yvette by putting a finger to your mouth. Yvette instantly gets off the bed and adopts a relaxed fighting stance. Somewhere between ready to fight and ready to sit back down if whoever behind the door isn't a threat. You open the door ready for anything and you see the innkeeper with a tray of food and another man waiting for you.

"John, this is Peyton he motions to the man standing next to him. He's our local law and wanted to" the innkeeper starts saying.

"I wanted to touch base with you on an event you were part of today" Peyton interrupts the innkeeper.

"Nothing serious, I've already talked with a few witnesses and know basically what happened, but I wanted to get your side of events too" he smiled reassuringly. You would have asked to speak with your lawyer first in the old world, but not being an option here, and not feeling like Peyton was looking for an arrest you motioned him in.

"I also brought up your meal for the night" the innkeeper smiled motioning at the food he was carrying. Both entered the room and the innkeeper hastily placed the tray on your table.

"I'll leave you guys to it then" the innkeeper stated and left the room.

"I don't want to interrupt your meal any longer than I need to" Peyton stated "so I'll just state my piece and be on my way." You nodded your head and waited for him to continue.

"Frankly I don't care what happened or how it happened. I've been wanting to run Sean out of town for a while now."

"Sean" you asked.

"Sean the now one armed man" Peyton smiles. "He's been a thorn in my side for a while now. He's been pretty clever up until now and I haven't been able to pin anything on him, but today he made a mistake by letting his temper get the better of him. At the cost of his arm" he smirks.

"There's been a lot of requests from pretty much every business around here that he causes problems for them and they want him gone, however, even though this is a small town and has little in terms of a law presence I still try to be as fair as possible. I won't run someone out who I don't have reason to. Sean, the little bastard, knew this and took advantage as much as possible. Maybe I need to change a bit" he mused.

"With that said, attacking unarmed travelers gave me the excuse I needed to run him and his two friends out of town, so you don't have to worry about retaliation. At least not until you leave. He's just the sort of bastard that would be spiteful enough and stupid enough to try and catch you unaware once you leave. Just as a heads up. Also having a raptor in town already got people talking, but after today it is unlikely there will be anyone who doesn't know who you are now. Likely to bring all sorts of attention you might not be expecting. Good and bad. Just another heads up" he states. You nod your head and none of it is really that surprising to you.

"Well I'll let you and..." he lets the sentence linger as he looks to Yvette.

"Yvette" she answers. He nods his head.

"Yvette" he repeats. "I'll let you two get back to your meal. Kind of reminds me it is about time I got some food in me as well" he casually remarks. You extend your hand out, realizing that shaking hands might not be a thing here, but fortunately Peyton takes your hand and shakes it.

"Have a good evening you two" he says turning to leave.

"You as well Peyton" you reply. Once Peyton shuts the door you turn to Yvette and shrug your shoulders a little.

"Didn't seem mad at me" you state.

"You made the town a little more peaceful" Yvette says "that probably was a thank you without saying thank you" she suggests.

"You're probably right. A law man that takes his job seriously can't play favorites I guess" you reply.

"Regardless, we got some food, and I don't know about you, but I'm pretty hungry having not eaten anything today" you state as your stomach growls reminding you. Yvette stands and skips over to the table to sit down in one of the chairs. Her face is excited as she looks at the food. You chuckle and take that as a sign she is ready as well.

Looking at the meal you see some small grouse dressed up on each plate, and what look like green beans and butter. There are two large mugs of beer again, and desert looks like roasted apple slices and cinnamon.

"Must have gotten a large batch of apples" you muse. Before you sit you notice a silver coin laying on top of a piece of paper. You slide the coin into your inventory and flip the paper over. It appears to be a message from the innkeeper so you read it out loud:

John,

I have come to understand that a certain someone will no longer be bothering this town. I wanted to express my thanks for removing this nuisance. I suspect he had a hand in many missing cases of ****, and he certainly drove off business any time he came in for a drink. I'm not a confrontational man anymore so I never had the will to stand up to him, but now I don't have to worry about that anymore. I've refunded your night's stay and meal, as well as cooked my favorite meal for you. Please accept my gratitude on behalf of my business and my customer's who will not miss this man. Let me know if I can do anything more for your stay.

Enjoy your meal,

Bill

You look up at Yvette after finishing. She looks thoughtfully up at you as she gnaws on the leg bone of her hen with the other leg in her other hand. You chuckle at her.

"What" she asks playfully "I can eat and listen at the same time" she states matter of factly.

"Looks like Peyton was correct about the business owners" she says idly waving the bare hen leg around before throwing it on her plate.

"He's probably right that we'll have to watch ourselves when we leave here too" you stroke your chin in thought.

"This Sean guy is likely watching and waiting for us to leave, and if he's like what Peyton said he'd probably wait months for us" you reason.

"Yah" Yvette sighs throwing the other leg bone down on her plate.

"Geez, I'd better get eating, otherwise you'll move onto my plate" you joke.

"Oh is he bringing up food for you as well" she says giving you a wink and a cheeky smile. You laugh as you sit down to enjoy your meal.

Soon you've both finished your meal and you both feel pleasantly full.

"That cininimum stuff is really tasty" Yvette states. You chuckle at her attempt to say cinnamon.

"You don't have...cinnamon...where you're from" you ask while exaggeratingly pronouncing cinnamon.

"Can't grow much up there as the seasons don't really allow it. Fast growing starches is about it, and the rest of our diet is meat we hunt" she explains. You nod your head as it makes sense.

"We'll send someone to get us salt when we need it, but otherwise we'll never see any merchants coming to sell us anything" she continues. You idly chat for a bit about her village and other whimsical things for the next couple hours, when you notice Yvette is staring mostly at the note the innkeeper left. You're about to ask her why she is staring.

"Can you teach me to read and write" she asks casually looking back up at you. You hesitate a moment. It makes sense that someone living in such an environment wouldn't have been taught something like that, or at least very few of them would have that knowledge. You would love to teach her, but you've never taught anyone much of anything besides job skills. Basics like reading and writing were just a default. You do remember a little of grade school though so you think you could figure something out.

"Absolutely Yvette, I don't know how good a teacher I will be, but even if it takes longer because I'm not good at teaching we'll get you reading and writing in no time" you smile. Yvette beams a smile back at you that makes your heart flutter a little.

"Yay" she exclaims clapping her hands together excitedly.

"Did you want to start a little tonight" you ask smiling back.

"No, tonight we have other plans, remember" she blushes a little and gives you a coy smile.

"Oh" you say surprised.

"I figured after what happened you wouldn't really be up for that" you leave it open for her to reply.

"If you think I'm going to let some scumbag spoil an opportunity like tonight then you have another thing coming" she huffs folding her arms across her chest and looking away from you. You chuckle at the bitterness and excitement you can feel from her.

"Besides" she stares at the wall with her face turning even more red "I really want to see Annabel cum on your cock" she states looking back to you with a shy smile on her face.

"Oh really" you say a little surprised, your eyebrows raising up and a smile forming on your face, and your cock hardening.

"Mmhmmm" she says nodding at you with a smoldering look on her face. You approach her and kneel in front of her, sliding in between her legs. You slowly walk your fingers up her leg like it's a little person.

"My love wants to see my cock inside someone else" you say reaching her waist with your hand. She just nods as she watches your hand. You reach up and cup her breast rubbing your thumb over her nipple.

"OOOoooo" she moans a little. Suddenly she grabs your wrist and pushes it away.

"Stop right there" she almost yells. You look at her clearly confused.

"If you do any more I won't be able to stop, and I want to have enough energy for tonight" she explains.

You chuckle. "Fair enough my love. It is probably about time to head there anyways" you say "if you are ready that is" you ask her.

"Oh I've been ready for a while now" she answers leaning in to give you a quick kiss on the lips. You both stand up and she suggests taking a quick bath to freshen up after today's events. You agree and you draw out the water for a quick rinse. Yvette uses the shampoo you had bought and you both lather yourselves up with soap. Finishing your with minimal groping you both dry off with a sheet having forgotten to buy towels again. You shuffle into your clothes and you start your way to the apothecary giggling hand in hand.
