    He wasn't sure why, but he only knew he felt curious. There was someone... "new" to Nevermore, but everyone seemed to respect her as if they had known her for a long time. He always felt a little overwhelmed whenever she passed by, as if something in her presence had a power of its own. It was quite sinister.

    Eugene tried to listen to people's whispers when she was around, maybe that way he would catch a name, a hint of who and what She was, but it seemed like a curse people were afraid to talk about. He knows curiosity killed the cat, but the appeal of this whole mystery was undeniable, and, well, it led him to some discoveries.

    She was Enid's older cousin, but she wasn't a werewolf. She was a vampire. Yes, a leech, a nocturnal creature, a killing machine, and all. From what he learned, she was the result of a genetic mutation, and even though she'd always lived with the Sinclair family, the pack seemed to look askance, except for Enid.

    One afternoon he went looking for solutions to calm his insects, wandering through the aisles of high shelves until he saw her in the biology section, specifically the genetics section. Taking a deep breath and hoping not to be killed right then and there, he cleared his throat.

    "Hey, um, what are you looking for? I know the books in this section almost by heart, so... Maybe I can help you find what you need..." he said, trying to act. naturally, as if he weren't breaking out in a cold sweat while also almost jumping up and down with excitement.
