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.

No one is ever safe

When Mr. Sullivan's carriage entered Meadow town, Eve turned to tell him, "I had a wonderful afternoon today. Thank you for inviting me for lunch." 

"You have yourself to thank, Genevieve. I know you worked really hard to be a governess and that you have been looking for families to hire you," Noah offered his never-ending encouraging words to her. "Not to forget, I did tell you that I felt bad for not being able to invite you to the celebration of me being a Duke."

A smile spread on Eve's lips, and she nodded. She was still grateful that Noah, who wasn't just the Duke's son was now a Duke, had taken time from his busy schedule to eat with her. She said, 

"Next time I shall treat you, Noah," stated Eve, and Noah didn't reject the idea. 

"I look forward to it," he replied smiling and watched her. The golden blonde strands of her hair were no less than a ray of sun. Her face held a pure expression when she looked outside the window.
