Capítulo 33: Seduction gone wrong

When the sun set behind the horizon and welcomed the night, the sky filled with shimmering stars and a huge moon with a red halo around it. It bathed everything in a soft, creamy glow, including Ave's room where she stood by the mirror staring at her work of art.

It had taken her an eternity to finally find a suitable dress—one revealing enough for her mission tonight. She was surprised Selene even owned such a dress, considering this era seemed to frown upon anything remotely daring.

"If I had a dress like this in my time, I'd have worn it to a movie premiere!" Ave thought, twirling in front of the mirror. The shimmering black dress flowed around her in soft waves. It was made entirely of lace, with beads sewn into intricate patterns that caught the light from the candles, making them sparkle like stars.
