Eleanor Leywin Novels & Stories

POV: Lewis | Edinburgh Eleanor spread the Sienna email across her desk at nine-oh-five. She had printed it. She read it the way she read everything — once quickly, once slowly, making one mark with her pen at the bottom. "She wants civil immunity," Lewis said.

“Gwen, we need a lawyer.” “I know we do. But not Lawrence.” I met his gaze, my own resolve hardening. “Lawrence is a foundation lawyer, a corporate strategist. This… this is a murder investigation, Arthur. A forty-five-year-old murder. We need a shark. We need Eleanor.” A flicker of surprise, then understanding, crossed his face. Eleanor Vance. My merciless mentor, the legal pitbull who had helped us dismantle Alistair Finch. She was retired, too, undoubtedly enjoying her own hard-won peace, but she was the only person I trusted to navigate the bloody waters of a criminal reinvestigation.

Lina inquired, probing for insights into Eleanor's past and passions. "Correction, Miss Lina. I am still an actress and model. I don’t have any plans of quitting my career," Eleanor asserted, her words carrying a tone of determination. In a world often dominated by the illustrious Knights, Eleanor emphasised her commitment to maintaining an independent identity. Mrs. Lina, though amused by Eleanor's steadfastness, admired her confidence. "You should pursue what you like doing. Having an independent identity should always be a priority. I myself teach the same to the people of my town. You must visit Las Vegas with Kayden. We would love to host you both there."

“Did you send it for that reason?” “I sent it because Diana would have wanted one woman in this house to receive something without being commanded by it.” Leah’s breath caught. Eleanor turned back to the paintings. “Do not worry,” she said. “I am not asking whose idea of you is true.” Leah went still. The sound from the dining room seemed to move farther away. Eleanor walked again, slowly, giving Leah the choice to follow. She did. “I met Olivia Grant,” Eleanor said. “Twice properly, several times in passing. Enough to know she was well trained. Not enough to know whether training made her happy.”

“What do you mean?” Eleanor gave a small, knowing smile. “Oh, my dear. You’re still so naïve. Lila is many things — vengeful, manipulative, ambitious — but she doesn’t move without backing.” Adrian’s tone sharpened. “Whose backing?” But Eleanor only smiled faintly, turning away. “You should rest. The storm will pass soon enough.” Her calmness was infuriating. It wasn’t the calm of reassurance — it was the calm of control.

Hmmm, that’s weird. “Why didn’t he say that? What does he need for his research? There were no vampires dead for him to use?” Kylian ask. “Exactly.” Jayden exclaims. “Maybe he got an important evidence.” There is really hard to process. Though, I never trusted Alpha Elias, but I never thought he would be this cruel. “So Alpha Elias is a suspect now?” Kylian ask. “We will have to find out. But who sent the message?” I ask. Oliver takes my phone from me.

, I keep my face straight, “I was thinking of maybe getting a new dog walker.” “What?” he sits up, “Why?” “Well, Sally made a terrible suggestion regarding Benny’s mealtimes and telling me what to do with his treatments and vet appointment. I don’t need a nosy dog walker. You know?” I shrug indifferently, hoping he won’t see through me. “Fucking hell Lillian, you can’t fire the girl for giving you sound advice. She knows how much Benny means to you. It sounds like she was helpful.” he says like I’ve lost my mind.

0 said and continue talking about things. Wow, this is Hilary's point of view when I am talking to her? Am I always this loud and I am telling a story? "Settle, please be sitted in your assigned seats." our professor said. She is Miss Ricafronte, she's our teacher in Calculus.

Melissa what are you doing in there, I heard the princess Luciana calling out to me and I immediately swam out of the room.

Since Mildred had already instructed her staff to prepare the writing supplies, Eleanor decided against it.
