The perks of antique furniture; odd sounds, odd smells. As Genevieve made her way to the side of the man again, she couldn't help but notice what sat idly, almost begging for attention or even slight and sloppy use on the dresser's surface; two unused colouring books, price stickers still on, binder not creased. A sad, sad sight, indeed. Against all better judgement, Genevieve couldn't help but speak. "Colouring books... do you have a child?" The man froze as he folded the blanket in his arms.

His past assistants would probably just display a bunch of simple paintings with no real meaning beyond physical and call it a day. In every piece Eve had chosen, there was passion depicted in it. The passion Alex needed. Walking out of the exhibit, he and Nicolas headed towards the outer garden. As it was already dark out, their only source of light came from the french doors leading back into the museum. Pulling out a sleek silver case, Nicolas opened it, revealing a line of cigarettes. He gestured to Alex , asking if he wanted one to which he declined. "Since when do you decline a smoke?"

She did not know why he was looking at the painting. She did not know what he was doing in front of the painting, but she was not interested to know about it.

I heard from your friend that you like post-impressionism." The temperature in the corridor seemed to drop suddenly. Noah stepped out of the shadows. His tall, broad frame blocked the only exit. His dark suit jacket was off.

Caterina smiles in a way that makes me pity his mother. Someone left a gift on the foyer table while we were busy pretending to own the day: a little tin of black wax and a single wax ring pressed on plain paper. The crest is wrong. It’s not Vescari, or Sartori. It’s a copy from memory, off by a petal. An insult. A message. We were in your house long enough to be sloppy. I pick it up with a dish towel and drop it into a plastic bag. “Go through his pockets,” I say of the living one.

I watched her all closely through the reflection in the glass. ‎ ‎Meanwhile, Elijah had donated one of his favorite paintings, it was the “Eternal Veins,” a rare piece from his private collection. I knew that painting very well; I’d seen him stare at it for hours all the time, back when Nina was still alive to him and promises still meant something. ‎ ‎And now Vanessa was right there where it was displayed… I noticed she hovered around it, When she turned back to move away from the display, the painting was no longer there.
