Eve stomped around her room angrily. They had been so close! The moment Kean had said those two words, the great big hole had opened up in his heart, perfect for them to invade.

But before he would be persuaded, that stupid girl calmed him!

Ugh, stupid, stupid, stupid! So close!

But this meant that perhaps the two did not have to die after all. They could be used, which was certainly the better option. If that girl could break him down, she could invade, persuade, break him down further. And of course, if she couldn't, then he could be killed.

How interesting this place was. Already, she'd easily made an ally. Escobar had greedily drunk up her blood, and what pact is stronger than one of blood? And that boy made things quite easy for her, seeing as he made everyone his enemy. If he wasn't careful, he would make this game of hers a little too easy.

Chiaki might make a nice ally. He seemed to hate that boy a bit, and the same went for Aros. But she would have to look out for Angel. And Oliver as well. Neither seemed to trust her, despite her efforts. And Oliver was such a cute child too... Pity she couldn't use him.

She would wait. Her first plan was to use Escobar to get the stones. If that failed, she would make more allies. This Mundo person she had heard about seemed quite interesting... And his motives were a mystery to even her. Perhaps she would investigate on this.

After all, she had time.

And it seemed now that the boy was trying to decide whether or not he would leave. He had finally realized what a burden he was to that Kean girl. For the time being, it would be best for her if he stayed. The closer he was to her, the easier it would be for her to mess with that hole in his heart that the girl had left. Because a broken heart never really heals.

This game... could turn out to be pretty interesting.
