If Yesterday Should Speak

[Josée's Note: Okay, a little quicker than I had intended. This is a 4,800 word fanfic involving two characters and an NPC from my "London By Night" Vampire: the Requiem game. Helena is a Ventrue NPC who was treated badly by her sire and former domitor, Deveraux. She was rescued by two PCs (Merris and Czaka), and has become Merris' partner, and an adoptive mother to his also-embraced daughter, Lucy (who is a knife obsessed 14-year-old). Merris is an ex-smuggler who left his wife and newborn daughter to keep them out of harm's way. He found his way to London and has since been embraced into the Gangrel clan and has become Seneschal of London. Czaka was a Polish art forger, embraced by the Mekhet. She met an unfortunate end in a botched 'rescue' attempt after Merris was found to have erased parts of his memory to aid an enemy of the Fief. Prince Emily, I should note, IS the same Emily as listed in other froth on this blog, but this is an alternate universe version who shares a similar, but not the same, background.]
