A/N: This was written for the tth100. The only linking thing for these is Faith in them.
Summary: Eve talks to Fred about Faith’s death.

“How could you not be jealous? She had the house, the kids, even the man, according to reports from your mutual friends,” Eve countered in Interrogation Room 1 at Central.
“Look, Detective-“
“Lieutenant. Lieutenant Dallas,” Eve said tersely.
“Lieutenant,” she admitted. “Why would I kill Faith? We’d both agreed that the better woman won. Besides, Wesley never really got over when I nearly died. Besides, you told me yourself- trying to see if I wouldn’t react- how her heart had been re-removed,” she stammered.
“Miss Burkle, we’re sorry to put you through this,” Peabody said.
Fred sniffled as she took the offered tissue. “Look at me, Lieutenant. Do you really think I could possibly do that?”
Morris had told her that it seemed likely someone high on Zeus had ripped out her heart, and Peabody had reported that Ms. Burkle had no med scripts on file.
“Well, we can’t be too careful. When do you head back?”
“I leave for New LA in the morning, but I understand. Our longstanding…grudge is why I live there and she lived here.”
Once outside and out of sight of the police, Illyria reemerged. No one makes a fool and gets away with it!
