    Summary

    Eve Perry knows very little other than taking what is necessary and burning the rest. Survival looks different to all and not all know the meaning of the word to its rawest form. To drop morals faster than clothes, trample over anyone they have to if it means they're guaranteed just one more step.

    London—in its dirty and poor, its wealthy and cruel, its monotony drunk chaos—is not kind nor welcoming, but she doesn't need it to be. All she needs is a home where nobody knows her face and has no desire to try. Home is a tricky word and she never imagined it would end up being defined by a thirteen year old boy with an eye patch and a shadowed butler she couldn't bring herself to dismiss as harmless.

    London is wicked, Ciel Phantomhive and Sebastian Michaelis even more so. Fate, on the other hand, is a debt collector and she is well past due.
