Vanessa strolled down the street, carefully taking in her new surroundings. Dreamville seemed to be a nice, quiet little town. She passed quite a few good looking men, all of whom smiled and tipped their hats at her, while the women scowled and made nasty remarks behind her back. Vanessa just shrugged and brushed them off. By now she was used to the comments and stares and didn�t really mind them anymore.

She stopped in front of the newspaper office and leaned back against the railing. She took in a deep breath of the fresh spring air and smiled to herself, enjoying the beautiful day.

"Hi."

Vanessa looked down and found a little girl staring up at her with wide eyes.

"Why, hello sweetheart." Vanessa said to the child.

"You stay away from my daughter, y�hear!"

Vanessa turned suddenly and came face to face with an angry woman, her cheeks red with anger. "Ma�am, I was just sayin� hello."

The woman shook her head. "I read �bout you and your kind comin� in here to Dreamville in that paper there . . . you all ain�t nothin� but trash that�s gonna ruin this town!" The woman yelled then spit at Vanessa�s feet.

Vanessa felt her face burning with embarrassment and was about to turn and run when she heard a deep voice behind her.

"Is there a problem here Ness?"

Vanessa saw the woman�s eyes widen with fear and her face paled to a ghostly white. She turned around and found Dean, tall, muscular and intimidating looking Dean standing behind her, a menacing look on his face.

She smiled and squeezed his arm gently. "No problem at all Dean."

Dean raised a questioning eyebrow at her. "You sure?"

Vanessa nodded and turned back to the woman. "Is that all?"

The woman scowled, grabbed her daughter by the arm and stormed off, throwing dirty looks back at them as she walked away.

Vanessa laughed and looked up at Dean. "We�re not the most popular people in town."

Dean nodded. "You can say that again. Look, I�m heading back now, you wanna come with me?"

Vanessa shook her head as she absentmindedly picked up a copy of the Pony Express Gazette from the display rack. "No thanks, I think I�m gonna hang around here for a while."

"Alright. I�ll see you back at the house." Dean smiled warmly at her. "Don�t let these people get you down."

"Thanks Dean, I won�t." Vanessa replied. After Dean walked away she started flipping through the paper. There were a few articles about the various happenings around town, a wedding announcement for that guy that Elena was interested in, the help wanted ad for the bartender at the brothel, and finally, what she had been looking for, the grand opening announcement for Le Chateau du Joli Dames.
