I'll be honest, I had to go to the bio to actually gain context as to what she is, who she is and what she's about. This comic gives us very little to establish the reader as to who this is, what's going on and why. We don't even get her name, much less the name of the seemingly important person she bares her soul to.
When put side by side, the fact the profile is more compelling than the comic isn't good.
You give us compelling moments, but they feel more like snapshots without the benefit of context. She's doing a job- cool. Why? Who for? why is it important? or not important? Who's on the dark web? Who is this person at home where she feels comfortable revealing her soul to?
That said, I really dig that your close up of the friends older face using shading as opposed to ink and lines was a good move. I think it gave the weight of this person being a senior individual without carving in features as ink would've. There Are elements that I think hold promise page to page, but your quality is still haphazard, which I don't think is a result of deadline. These comics can be made with a wealth of time. Really use that time to sharpen what is clearly a pretty good concept.
I'm a fan of these relationship dynamics that tackle the clash of mortal and immortal points of view, I think that's my favorite part of this little comic. It's a good juxtaposition of the internal world of Bella Noche with the external world of vampy assassinations. Since your work is fully traditional, I feel inclined to want to see your word balloons be the same, rather than the digital circles here that seem to clash with your style. In the future I would also recommend keeping font sizes similar with each other unless you're trying to make a point that someone is speaking louder or softer. The femme fatale noir appeal is always a lot of fun, keen to see future adventures!
