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.

Music Recommendation: Road to Chicago- Thomas Newman

In the morning, when Eve was wearing her shoes she heard Aunt Aubrey ask, "Did the Hookes leave town?" 

Eve nodded, "They left yesterday."

"I see," Aunt Aubrey murmured to herself before exhaling the worry she had been holding in, since the Marchioness visit. 

Lady Aubrey was glad to hear about it, as having Marchioness' Aurora Hooke had left a troubling anxiousness in her mind. She didn't forget the day when her toes had been mercilessly trampled and crushed, leaving it bleeding, while the other folks attending the soiree hadn't offered to help her. Not even the family for whom she had been serving. 

"Does that day still haunt you?" Eve asked her aunt with a slight frown.
