Chapter 236: Half And Half

Eve saw it all through Marceline's eyes, which came in flashes.

She stopped breathing when she saw Eugene sitting on the ground through Marceline's eyes, and the vampiress throw mud into his eyes. Then there was a coldness she had never felt as the dagger stabbed into his stomach once and twice. She saw him struggle, while he was left to bleed with his life slipping away.

"What? Don't sit here staring at me. Leave!" Marceline shouted, her voice still holding the same pride.

Eve was in shock, not knowing how to react. How could someone be so vile? How could someone hold this much hatred and go to the extent of killing people without any reason? She stood up and left the room.

Eve walked through the corridors as if she had seen a ghost, while the flash of images continued repeating in front of her eyes. She made her way towards the servant's quarters, where Eugene was resting.

Eve's mind continued to think about what Marceline had done. She had crossed the line this time and wouldn't forgive the woman for harming her family. It was one thing to hurt her and a whole other thing when it came to hurting the people she cared for.

On her way, Eve met Rosetta, who was being stalked by Blythe.

"Eve!" Rosetta sighed and quickly reached where she was. "I heard Lady Marceline was cursed by a witch. Is that true? Eve?"

Eve snapped out of her thoughts and nodded, "Yes."

"Oh my, I cannot believe that it isn't possible for even the pureblooded vampires to escape the bad curses of the witches," Rosetta murmured. She turned to Blythe, who was still standing and ordered, "Go do your work, Blythe. I am going to be busy now."

Blythe pursed her lips, briefly looking at the direction in which Eve had walked, and she hesitantly walked away from there.

Once the maid was out of their sight, Rosetta turned back and said, "I went to see Eugene, but Blythe has been following me everywhere I go like a ghost. I hope he is doing okay. I worry that he's not able to consume blood. Did he drink blood?"

Rosetta didn't care much about Marceline's leg or the gossip going around among the servants in the Moriarty mansion, as her focus was on Eugene.

"He drank Vincent's blood. He was doing much better before he left for the servant's quarters. Vincent said Eugene is half turned. He is a half vampire and half human. Let us keep this information to ourselves," Eve replied, and Rosetta vigourously nodded. She then said, "I am going to see him, you can come with me and it will be less suspicious."

Rosetta quickly nodded and walked along with Eve to the servant's quarters.

Once they reached in front of Eugene's room, Eve knocked on the door and stepped inside the small room. She closed the door. Eugene was lying on the bed, and his complexion had slightly improved. Timotei sat guarding him.

"Did they amputate her leg yet?" Timotei asked, and for a second, Rosetta's soul slipped out of her body as she had forgotten the cat could speak.

Eve nodded, "Yes. The physician is closing the wound now as we speak."

Timotei harrumphed, "I would have loved to see the sight of it. She screams too much though."

Rosetta walked to Eugene's bedside and leaned forward to ensure the man was still alive. After all, she did lose him today, and it had frightened her little heart.

Eugene's eyes opened, showing the red eyes in there, and Rosetta felt her heart skip a beat, "Good evening. How do you feel?" The recently turned vampire sat up right from the bed and nodded.

"Still the same," Eugene replied, and he said, "Please take a seat."

Rosetta was more than happy to sit in here and look after Eugene. Though the cat doubted who would be watching whom. When Eugene's eyes met Eve's, he noticed the slight frown on her face and asked,

"Is everything alright, Miss Eve?"<novelnext></novelnext>

Eve offered a smile, "Yes, everything is alright. I thought to drop by to make sure you were alright."

Everything was going to be alright, she thought in her mind. She decided not to tell about what she saw as she wanted Eugene to rest and create another hurricane in the mansion. Not to mention, Marceline would outright deny that she had stabbed Eugene as he was healed.

Rosetta cleared her throat and asked Eve, "Eve... I think there are things we need to talk about? About what happened this afternoon?"

Eve realised it was time to explain to Rosetta, but she doubted she could explain how she had killed her aunt. Truth never stayed quiet and came out in the end. She offered a bow and apologised,

"I am sorry for not telling you about this sooner."

Rosetta awkwardly stared at Eve and snapped out of her thoughts before saying, "No, I understand why you felt that you couldn't tell me. I mean... you are an outcast, and..."

Eve was glad that Rosetta was head over heels for Eugene, or else this whole matter would have blown out without any control. She asked slowly, "You know what I am?"

"I do," Rosetta replied in a solemn voice. If Eve was an outcast, did that mean the kind Lady Aubrey was a witch too? She said, "You have always been kind to me since the moment we met, Eve. Never have you tried to hurt me, verbally or physically. How can I look over that fact and be angry? I know it isn't easy being a witch."

The room went quiet. Eve's eyebrows raised as the vampiress had misunderstood her. Eugene's eyes moved from Eve to the vampiress, looking back and forth. Timotei, on the other hand, suddenly burst out laughing.

"I must say, your pet cat scares me," Rosetta whispered to Eve.

Timotei stopped laughing to clarify, "I am not her pet cat. I am no one's cat. I am Timotei--"

"The cat?" Rosetta completed, and the cat softly growled.

Eugene picked up Timotei, holding the cat, who was about to jump and scratch Rosetta. Eve brought back Rosetta's attention to her, and she corrected the vampiress,

"I am not a witch, Rosetta. I am similar to Eugene."

Rosetta blinked and said, "A vampire and a human?"

Eve didn't see a reason to hide, when Rosetta had already seen her use her abilities. With the vampiress's holding affections with Eugene, she doubted the young lady would turn against them. She breathed, "I am half mermaid."

Rosetta's mouth opened and closed, looking confused and shocked by the news. She asked, "Y--you are a mermaid? A m--mermaid-human?"

"Guess again," Timotei snickered, his black tail swishing back and forth.

Eve carefully revealed to Rosetta, "A mermaid and a siren."

The vampiress's pupils dilated from the news. As if her mind couldn't comprehend the shock, she fell unconscious.

"Lady Rosetta?!" Eugene called her name in worry.

Timotei escaped from Eugene's grasp and pawing the vampiress's face, he commented, "I thought the shock would reduce, considering how she didn't mind you being a witch. Do you think we should get ropes and tie her up so that she doesn't go running to tell everyone else?"

Eve exhaled the air through her lips. She said, "She won't. She's on our side."
