“Eva, you have to trust me on this that I know exactly what I’m doing. I just need you

to do everything that I say, when I say it. For now, we remain silent. Not a word to

Adam growled suddenly and scowled at Eva, making her jump violently and the color

drain from her face.

her Mrs. Nocturne.”

release of sensationalist articles designed to tarnish her reputation even further.

She laughed loudly at some of the wild theories that the writers came up with,

questioning every little thing that she had done from as early as her childhood, and

making up fanciful and far-reaching explanations for every misstep she made.

The only articles that really bothered her, were the ones that questioned whether or

not she had been responsible for her mother’s death.
