Allure Of The Night

[Mature Content] The body of a mermaid is a vault of treasures. Their tears formed the most splendid of pearls, their exquisite blood a euphoric drug for vampires, their luscious hair woven into the finest of silk, and their tender meat sought after by werewolves more than Heaven’s ambrosia. The creatures of night mingled within human society, fleeced in the wool of aristocracy, veiled in their portrayed innocence and nobility, their savagery continued to predate on the weak and powerless. Genevieve Barlow, Eve for short, was an exceptionally strange young lady. She had an alluring and beguiling nature, where for her twenty-four year old self had barely changed in appearance since her eighteenth birthday. She had fooled the administration and had gotten a degree so that she could have a better life. Most odd of all was that Eve had a secret she shared with no one. She enters the house of Moriarty, not just to earn but also to find answers on what happened to her mother nearly two decades ago. Unfortunately, things do not always proceed as one planned. Despite her cautious nature and desire to stay out of sight, a cold pair of eyes falls on her, that soon refuses to leave her out of sight.

After the revelation

Eve knew it was risky to reveal the entire truth about herself to Rosetta. The leverage they had was that the vampiress was deeply in love with Eugene, and it was Eve, who in the end, had helped revive Eugene back through the vampiress's blood. She also hoped the friendship she shared with the vampiress would help the young woman from telling it to anyone. 

As Eve watched an unconscious Rosetta, she heard Eugene ask her, "Miss Eve, Is everything really alright? You seem tense." 

Having been around and taking care of Eve for so many years now, since the time Lady Aubrey and he had taken Eve to the Dawson's house that night they had found Eve for the first time, Eugene could easily tell when something worried her. 

After a lot of thought, and with Rosetta still unconscious, Eve whispered, "I know who stabbed you," gaining Eugene as well as Timotei's entire attention, who had been pawing at Rosetta's face to check if she was really unconscious.
