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.

Mr. Quintin's courtship

Music Recommendation: Heavens, what an afternoon- John Lunn

At night, after supper, Eve sat in her bed holding a glass of water while staring at it. She wanted to explore her mermaid abilities, so she decided to practice it just like Vincent had told her. 

She concentrated for one whole minute, but nothing happened. It was only when she dipped her finger in the glass that she could waver the surface of the water. She had to learn to do it without using a medium, Eve thought to herself. 

It took her nearly an hour when she was finally able to pull a drop out of the glass, without using water as a medium. The drop of water looked like a silver pearl rose above the glass and met her eye to eye. Seeing it made her happy to think that she could do things beyond what she knew.
