the next morning he awoke with a start, a falling dream.  he rolled over and saw that the girl he had spent the night with was gone. he looked around the room and saw that none of her things were there either. he shot out of bed and looked through all of his things hoping that she had not been some sly theif who had robbed him blind after their night of pleasure. he looked in his bags and in the drawers with his clothes inside and soon came to the conclusion that she had not taken anything. he looked around once more and thought is this what he had done to all those poor women. now he understood why some of them werent to happy with him the next morning. he got dressed and left his room taking care to lock the door behind him this time. he walked back downstairs and sat at one of the open tables. his friend from last night walked up to him kissed him on the cheek and asked him what he wanted for breakfast. he looked up at her and ordered some fruit and juice. she smiled and walked away swaying her hips seductively. he noticed himsellf staring at her and looked away. he remembered the fight from the night before and realized that if he didnt get some information pretty quickly than he might be close to the end of his days. never before had he happened on three newly turned werewolves in one night. this far away from their clan heads. had they just had the misfortune of being lost in their beastly madness or was there something going on here. as his new little pet walked back with his food he snapped out of his deep thoughts. as she put the food down on the table he looked at her and said that had noticed the wolf head on the wall and was wondering the story behind it. she told him that he should talk to the inn owner because it was there before she got there. he thanked her and paid for his meal. as he ate he searched the dining area of the inn for someone who looked like the owner, he had not realized that he didnt know who it was and should probably have figured it out before he let his waitress get away. he stood up after finishing his meal and before he could begin his search a man walked up to him and asked him how he had been enjoying his stay there at the inn. conner looked at the man and told him that it had been a good stay thus far but that he would like to speak to the owner. the man smiled and told him that he was in luck and that he was in fact looking at the owner. conner smiled and asked the man where the wolfs head had come from. the mans eyes glazed over as if he had to dive deep into his past to remember the story of how the head had come to this inn. he looked at conner and told him that he had been out  hunting for deer one year long ago and that while he was tracking a deer he had wounded he, himself, was being tracked. he said that he believes the only reason he was able to best the wolf was because when the wolf attacked it seemed to be starved and that when it missed the man it just sank its teeth into the deer and stayed there. it seemed to have forggotten that the man was even there. the man crept closer and severed the head for the body. he said that he was angry because the wolf had destroyed the carcass of the deer and that now there was no good meat on the animal. the man looked at the wolf and decided that a kill was a kill and began to clean the wolf. he said that no one would have believed his story if he had not brought back the head so when he was awalking away he picked the head up too and brought it back to the inn. conner asked him how old the head was and the man told him that it had happened about five years ago. in conners mind that was good news, that meant that it might have just been coincedence that three more wolves were seen last night. he looked at the man and asked if he could ask him a question that might sound silly. the inn keeper looked at conner and nodded. conner asked if he had heard any rumors or legends of werewolves or vampires being in the area. the old man laughed a hearty laugh and told conner that he hoped he wasnt chasing fairytales. but the man stopped laughing soon after and said that there was a rumor about vampires being around the village but that it was just a made up thing circulated to keep the childeren from misbehaving and sneaking out of the house. conner smiled, he knew it wasnt a tale told for childeren. he thanked the man and went back up to his room. he had meant to leave this place that day but he felt that he needed to stay for a couple more days. he needed to know more about the area and if there were going to be more wolves lurking about. he laid back down with a full belly and proceeded to take a quick nap. he had napped for a good bit longer than he had wanted to but his body was tired and apparently he needed his rest. when he woke the sun was beginning to go down. he had missed luch and was starving. he walked back down the stairs again and ordered some meat and beer for supper. when it arrived at his tables he devoured  it quickly and drank is beer. to settle his stomach after his meal he decided to go on a walk through the town. on his walk he watched the people around this little town. they didnt act like they knew anything about vamires or werewolves being around. they didnt close up there windows or anything. they were completely oblivious to the dangers that faced them. he circled the town a couple times and saw nothing out of the ordinary. he casually made his way back to his room and was glad to have bed to himself tonight. he was still sore from the events from the night before and was looking forward to going to sleep early. luckily there wasnt any big crowds in the inn and he soon found hilself in the comfort of his bed. he blew out the candle and closed his eyes.
