The woman is standing close behind her and the warm breath on her neck makes her body tingle. Eve closes her eyes briefly when she feels Isobel's lips brushing at the back of her ears going down towards her neck and shoulder. She can't help but be swayed by the woman. Isobel knows how to play with her lust.
And Villanelle knows how to play with her mind.
Eve startles like waking up from a daydream. She takes a few steps forward to escape from Isobel's enchantment. The woman has a powerful influence that is hard to ignore but that charm can be deceitful. Isobel is a seductress. Eve tells herself that the woman may tell the truth but she spins it to her advantage.
"Why do I need a Hanbok for dinner?" Eve laughs hiding her nervousness.
"It's a formal party for foreign dignitaries," Isobel explains. The woman's face changes into an expressionless doll narrating an invitation with no sense of enthusiasm.
