SUMMARY

Alexia is a soulless, a person with no soul. She is called a preternatural, in contrast with the other supernatural creatures that are a common occurrence in this fantasy Victorian era England.

While attending a bowl, she is attacked by a vampire, who should know better then to mess with a soulless like her. Her preternatural status gives her super powers, at least against other supernatural creatures, and so she dispatches him.

Lord Maccon is part of an organization that policies and investigates supernatural related activity. He is a werewolf himself, and when he shows up he chastises for her recklessness, because killing a vampire is still considered a murder.

He believes its not her fault becouse he knows her, and so lets her go.
