Deacon moved toward the woman and grabbed Eve's hand with force. Eve winced in pain but didn't stop struggling from his hold and stopping him from dragging her. She had been scared that her legs would transform and reveal her mermaid tail to the people present here. She resisted the guard by throwing a handful of dust from the ground and into his eyes.
