"Morning, Ms. Herrick," greeted everyone as a slender, beautiful woman with light green hair entered the common workspace with a lot of cubicles. The big, round glasses on her face balanced out her mature charm with a little bit of innocence.

"Morning,"

The woman walked past the men who were hungrily staring at her as if she was a piece of walking steak. She tied her black hair up and revealed the back of her neck, which made them men in the office even madder. Even the women in the office were somehow charmed by her.

Whispers began to be heard in the common workspace where a lot of people were.

"Ms. Herrick is definitely the sexiest woman I've ever met!"

"Shush! Don't you dare say that in front of the mayor or you'll be beheaded!"

"Really? Are they dating or something? I know that Mayor Krammer is not married, but is Ms. Herrick single?"

"Ah, you're new here. I heard Eveline is in love with Mayor Krammer, and vice versa, I guess? So, anyway, we can only enjoy her beauty from afar,"

A smile surfaced on Eveline Herrick's face as she faintly heard the whispering. She turned around and gave the gossiping men a wink.

"She winked at me! She winked at me!"

"Not at you, you bastard! It was me she winked at!"

"Shut up! She winked at me!"

A heated argument broke out between the men about a topic that shouldn't have been an issue in the first place. However, somehow Eveline's charm was able to make people stupid.

Eveline ignored them and entered her private office. As the mayor's secretary, she got her own space that was separate from the rest.

Her private office was not large, but it was big enough to be comfortable. There was a desk with objects neatly arranged on it, a shelf on one side with numerous books and documents, various potted plants that gave the room a natural vibe, and a giant full-body mirror in the corner. The room was painted mostly yellow, and the greed plants added a beautiful harmony to the color scheme.

After closing her office door, the first thing Eveline did was stand in front of the mirror, looking intently at her own reflection. Her slender body was emphasized by the tight yellow dress that went only a little below her thighs, revealing most of her legs. She took off the black coat that she was wearing and hung it on the rack before returning to the mirror.

"Eveline, look at you. Aren't you the most beautiful woman in the world?" she said playfully with a breathy voice.

She caressed her own body while looking at her reflection. Suddenly, the 'Eveline' in the mirror spoke.

"Yes. Look at you and your gorgeous face, your body, and those legs. No men can resist you, Eveline. Even women will have a hard time resisting your charm..." the 'Eveline' in the mirror's voice had a higher tone and sounded devious.

Her cheeks grew red because of the compliment and she wriggled in pleasure.

"Teeheehee... Oh, you..."

"Being a Romancer is the best idea ever. Now I can get anyone I want, isn't that right? *Wink*"

The 'Eveline' in the mirror winked back.

The more she looked at her reflection, the heavier her breathing became. She could feel the warm air coming out of her mouth while her hands were touching every part of her soft, fair skin gently.

"Don't forget that now you can even create potions to make even the most resistant man fall for you," the 'Eveline' in the mirror spoke.

"You're right... *Hhhh..." she let out a deep breath.

Knock! Knock!

Her expression sunk in an instant.

"Who the fuck is that..." she mumbled.

The 'Eveline' in the mirror shrugged, and then her reflection returned to normal. It no longer spoke to her and did actions that were different from the real person.

After making sure that her appearance was appropriate, Eveline opened the office door and found a young man standing behind it.

"Eve, are you free tonight?"

"Oh, it's you, Jonathan. Are you finally asking me on a date?" she replied playfully. Her expression was innocent, but her eyes were seizing up the man.

"No, not like that, Eve. Diana and I are celebrating our second anniversary. We are inviting all of our close friends, and we hope that you'll be there," said Jonathan in a friendly manner. He didn't seem to be affected by Eveline's seduction.

Eveline was visibly enraged for a split second, but she quickly controlled her expression and didn't let her smile waver.

"I'll think about it, Jonny,"

"Alright then, Eve. Please let me know if you're up for it. Anyway, this morning I blacked out for a second. It felt like my brain was being probed. Has it ever happened to you?"

"No, never. You must be just tired,"

"I guess... Anyway, it's time for me to get back to work or Mr. Krammer will chew my ass," he smiled and waved at her.

"He'll chew your ass alright..."

Eveline closed the door slowly and then locked it. Once she was alone, her expression became ugly and twisted.

"How dare he resist my charm! And to invite me to dinner with his girlfriend? How dare he!"

"Calm down, honey. He has been your friend since childhood, so he must have higher tolerance against your charm. Just give it some time and he will surely fall for you," the 'Eveline' in the mirror was back and she was hugging herself for comfort.

"Yes, you're right, Gorgeous. I should properly seduce him and then have sex with him in front of his girlfriend. That will be the best scenario, teeheehee..."

Eveline began laughing maniacally and once she was satisfied with herself, she looked at the desk to check if there was work to be done today.

"That's quite a lot. Darling, do you think we should just do what we usually do?" she asked her reflection, who was busy checking her nails.

"That is the best way to get things done indeed. You are very smart, Love,"

Eveline picked up the documents on her desk and after looking at herself in the mirror one more time, she got out of her private office.

In the common workspace, the moment she came out, all the eyes were looking at her. The fact that she wasn't wearing her coat anymore, revealing the curves of her body, made her even more ravishing.

Walking as slowly as she could while swinging her bottom, Eveline approached one of the men whose cubicle was the closest to her office. She then leaned forwards, bringing her bosom closer to the sweating man.

"Bruno, would you mind doing these for me? Please?" she said breathily as she handed the stack of documents to the man.

"Y-yes Ms. Herrick! Leave them to me!" the man took the documents from her hands, intentionally rubbed his sweaty fingers against hers.

"Thank you," she replied with a smile and then quickly left.

"You lucky bastard!" shouted another person from another cubicle.

"Bruno, tell me if you need help!"

Meanwhile, Eveline had gone to the toilet and was standing in front of the mirror, thoroughly washing her hands with soap. The toilet was empty except for Eveline and her 'reflection'.

"How dare that pig touch me!"

"You should punish her, dear. Bruno, isn't it? How did you even remember his name?" asked her reflection with a voice that was a pitch higher than the original.

"Although they are all trash, knowing their names is still important. They will feel that you care about them that way, see?"

Once she finished washing her hands, she checked the makeup on her face.

"Anyway, Love, you sounded like you had fun last night? Hmm? I'm jealous..." the 'Eveline' in the mirror wore a frown and her hands were reaching down to her intimate part.

"I'm sorry, darling, I couldn't bring a bigger mirror, so you couldn't see. At least you heard how much fun I was having, didn't you?" she laughed and exhaled deeply, "Ahh... just remembering about last night got me excited..."

Her breathing got heavier and heavier and she began touching herself vigorously.

Suddenly, she felt a heavy wave of sleepiness weighing down on her!

"Love, I'm sleepy. I'll get some sleep first," said the 'Eveline' in the mirror.

She didn't hear any footsteps nor felt any presence. She tried to look around using the remaining time that she had to find anyone suspicious, but there was none. Eveline used what remained of her strength to get out of the toilet, but the sleepiness became heavier and heavier until she fell unconscious on the toilet floor.

A faint sound of snoring was heard from the toilet as a tall, shrouded figure entered it. The figure's whole body was covered in a mysterious yellowish mist that made people instinctively neglect his presence. The sounds of his footsteps were also muffled by the mist.

The figure looked at the mirror with suspicion and then focused his attention on the sleeping woman on the floor. He seemed to be mumbling something inaudible and once he was done, he left the toilet tiredly. The figure disappeared not long after, as Eveline continued to sleep inside the toilet.

"Ms. Herrick, what happened?!!"

Two women just entered the toilet and were surprised to see Eveline's body on the floor. They panicked for a second, but after hearing her faint snoring, they quickly calmed down and even began gossiping.

"If only we can take a photograph of this..." said one of the women mischievously.

"You know what, I've always hated this bitch. Who does she think she is, seducing all the men in the office," replied the other woman in disdain. She was looking down at the sleeping Eveline with contempt.

"What are you thinking about?"

There was an evil smile on the other woman's face.

"Let's completely undress her and hide her clothes somewhere,"

"What are you? A high schooler?"

"What? Do you not hate her? You even wanted to take a photograph of her sleeping like that!"

"Yes, but that's just to tease her, not to publicly shame her like your idea!"

The two women's bickering woke Eveline up. She slowly got up from the floor with a confused expression on her face.

"Why am I sleeping here? What are you two doing?!" Eveline's voice sounded irritated.

"Ms. Herrick, we just came and you were already sleeping. We don't know what happened," replied the woman who wanted to take a photograph.

"Why didn't you wake me up?!"

Eveline didn't like to not be in control and the fact that there were other people while she was sleeping in an inappropriate place made her even angrier.

"I-I'm sorry Ms. Herrick. We didn't have time to. We literally just came in and you already began waking up,"

Eveline's nails grew longer in an instant and they looked like they were made of metal.

"Don't you lie to me!"

She closed in towards the woman who planned to undress her and pushed her to the wall. Her sharp nails rubbed against the woman's skin and it appeared that if Eveline brought her nails any closer, the woman would start bleeding.

"Ms. Herrick... she's not lying. Please let her go..."

Someone who heard the commotion from outside the toilet then came barging in. It was Jonathan, who had just happened to be walking past the female toilet.

"What's happening here?" he asked worriedly, looking at Eveline who was pinning another woman against the wall. The woman's face had been drained of its color and drops of sweat filled her forehead.

"Jonathan! These women were bullying me!" said Eveline in self-defense.

With just a quick glance, Jonathan could see that the situation wasn't like what Eveline was describing. He raised his eyebrow and looked at Eveline in disappointment.

"Eve, you've changed," his voice was disheartened, "Please let her go,"

Seeing that Jonathan was not on her side upset her even more. She hated the way he was looking at her like she was some kind of lunatic. She hated the way the two women played victim there, although clearly, she was the victim. However, she couldn't do anything right now because it was a public space.

Eveline charged out of the toilet in anger and quickly returned to her office, slamming the door behind her. She looked at herself in the mirror and began venting her frustration.

"Those bastards! How dare they humiliate me like that!" she rested both her hands on the mirror and looked down on the floor in anger. Her breathing was heavy because of her emotion.

"Love, calm down. There will be a chance for revenge, and when the time comes, you can enjoy it for as long as you can," replied her reflection coldly.

"Yes, yes, you're right, Gorgeous. I will make sure they will not forget that I, Eveline, am the one standing at the top and they can only lick my foot. I will make sure to humiliate them in the way they will never forget!"

She looked at herself in the mirror and was reminded of how irresistible she was now. She began caressing her body intimately.

"For now, let's go back to the basement. Hank shouldn't mind if I play with his toy for a while. I need to release some pressure or I will explode, ahh..."

After putting on her coat, Eveline left her office and walked downstairs towards the main entrance. Her mood was much better than when she returned to her office, which made the other people confused.

...

In a cafe near the town hall, Graham Hymes was sitting at the outdoor seat near the corner. On the table in front of him were a bowl of warm stew and a cup of hot chocolate. He took a little sip of his hot chocolate and rested his back on the soft cushion. His breathing was heavy as if he had just run a marathon.

"Val, the preparation is all now ready at last,"

Graham looked at the town hall across the street and watched as a woman wearing a yellow dress and a black coat exited the building.

"Our next target has left the building as expected,"

Using the provided soup spoon, he scooped out some of the stew and brought the thick, hot liquid into his mouth. The chunks of mutton, carrot, and potato touched his palate as he chewed them. The soup warmed up his body and the solid ingredients filled up his stomach.

"Once we finish this meal, we'll start our next project, Val. I'll call it operation Identity Theft,"
