"No, no! This isn't happening." Vivienne broke down. The weakness she had been feeling all day returned in double fold and her knee gave away and she was soon ok on the ground, sobbing and crying.

Eva's body was lying there, lifeless and Vivienne crawled to where her dead secretary lay, taking her arm and touching her pulse points to see if she was in any way just unconscious and not dead.

There was no pulse.

Vivienne turned to look at the man she had come down the basement with. Her eyes were filled with so much hate. So much disdain. She stood to her feet and lunged at him, grabbing him by the tie and sinking her tooth into his neck. The man groaned and jerked away. Vivienne was lifted off the floor and tossed to the ground.
