As a gimmick, Eve would model in the boutique window once a day. Being pretty, she was used to being looked at, but one particular man caught her attention. Although the boutique owner warned her to be wary of wolves, she found herself falling for the smooth talker. Only later would she learn that he was an undercover policeman investigating the boutique's involvement in the smuggling of stolen diamonds.
