Jane couldn’t mistake the tone in Stanley’s voice.

It wasn’t openly hostile, nor was it sharp enough for anyone else to call rude, but she heard it all the same. A quiet sort of disdain lingered beneath every word he spoke to her, buried beneath formal manners and calm restraint. The kind that made it clear he had already formed an opinion of her long before this conversation had even begun.

To Stanley, she was trouble.

Jane lowered her eyes for a brief moment, pressing her lips together as she

    Giggling upon seeing her, Annie pushed herself to stand from the wooden table. Slowly, almost as if she owned the entire place and every person breathing within it, she stalked away from where she stood and towards Jane, who still lingered by the entrance of the dining room with her hand resting near the edge of the doorframe.The world around them seems to suddenly come into a stop. In such an odd situation, everyone really did drop whatever they had been doing and turned their eyes towards Annie, clearly signaling the amount of power that Annie has and the amount of trouble she had just fell into. Jane noticed immediately how Annie smelled like cinnamon and expensive oils, the scent clinging to her skin in a way that no ordinary servant could ever afford. It was not overpowering but refined, deliberate, the kind of fragrance meant to stay in people's memories long after one had already walked away. Even the fabric brushing against Annie's legs looked softer than the rough uniforms

The office smelled faintly of old paper and candle wax, the heavy curtains drawn just enough to allow a narrow stream of pale afternoon light into the room. Dust drifted lazily through the beam, slow and undisturbed, unlike the thoughts turning in her head.Was it because Victor had taken interest in her?That alone would be enough to sour people against her in this place. She had already noticed the way the servants watched her whenever Victor happened to acknowledg

    The hands fastening the buttons of her dress were so cold that Eva's back snapped straight in a jolt, a shiver racing down her spine. The chill wasn't like an ordinary draft—it was the kind of cold that bit into her skin, sharp and merciless, as though those fingers had been plunged into frozen water and left there far too long.It wasn't winter. There was no reason for such ice in a touch.Her breath hitched. Slowly, hesitantly, she lifted her head, peering through the veil of her blonde hair at the mirror before her. What she saw unsettled her more than the chill.The figure behind her was cloaked in shadow. Darkness seemed to cling to him, swallowing nearly all trace of his form, save for the faint shimmer of a vest embroidered with threads of gold. The details refused to come into focus, as though the glass itself recoiled from showing her more.But there was one undeniable truth: the hands

    Hades watched as Evangeline's gaze followed Roman until he disappeared. He noted that the gaze never left and his smile stalled. "Is Roman someone you prefer?" Prefer? What an odd question. Prefer Roman to what? To him? No way.She shook her head, "He... told me how freedom has a price.""For someone who sells other's freedom, how wise," noted Hades before he raised his deep inky eyebrows, "Is that why you offered to work under me? Because he taught you how freedom has price and that I have bought your freedom?" Well... she didn't think it that way but maybe that's right?"He's a scary man," she then continued, looking at the contract. "Did he do something to you?"She didn't look up to see his face so she didn't know what kind of expression Hades was making. "No..thing." She looked at her own dress and uncomfortably shifted, pulling her dress. "If you say so," Hades answered bleakly. He took the contract anyway, turning it between his fingers. "I wouldn't recommend signing it.

    Victor's eyes looked at Jane the moment she rushed out from the gate. His blue gaze swept over her appearance slowly, but couldn't feel any palpable difference. He couldn't see the state of her clothes which was clean or the untouched bun keeping her hair neatly in place, and the absence of any dirt on her face. Aside from the mud staining the bottom of her shoes from the wet ground, she looked completely unharmed.Being blind, that means he couldn't see anything but he could tell that she must have came out in a good state. It's because everyone who walked out of that gate would usually have a loud fearful heartbeat yet Jane had none of that at all. It was not even a subtle smile. The grin that formed on Victor’s face was crooked and deeply amused, as though he had just witnessed something entertaining. Meanwhile, Jane only frowned harder as she looked back at him.Why was he smiling?The thought irritated her almost immediately. This was supposed to be an urgent matter. His younger

    Once the children had finished every last bit of food on their plates, Jane slowly rose from the bed she had briefly sat on while waiting for them to eat. The small cottage had grown warmer from the firewood still crackling softly in the kitchen, carrying with it the lingering scent of butter, herbs, and roasted meat.For a moment, she simply stood there quietly.Gabby and Gabriel were still seated at the table exactly as before, their small legs dangling beneath the chairs as they stared rather mournfully at the empty dishes in front of them. It almost looked as though they were hoping another serving might magically appear if they waited patiently enough.The sight tugged unexpectedly at Jane’s heart.They were vampires, yes, but at times like this they felt no different from ordinary children.Softly sighing, she walked toward them before offering the twins a bright smile.“What would you two like to eat next time?” she asked kindly.Gabby reacted immediately.“The meat!” she answe
