***JASON'S POV***I stared at the queen with burning rage, her words replaying at the back of my head. “You must be joking.” I said through gritted teeth. She might have somehow caught my father in her trap but she won't be able to manipulate me the same way, I made sure of that for over ten years when I decided to move to the academy.“By now you should know that I don't joke with things like this. If you won't do it then I'll simply find someone else to court her—”“Stay the f*ck away from her!” I thundered, my wolf trying to surge forward but I pushed him back in as I didn't want to put my father in harms way. “Seeing how you're being so protective of her, I'm assuming you're already smitten by her.” She stated this with an amused smile.I couldn't let her know Cruella was my mate, I didn't want to give her any leverage over me. “I don't know what sick plan you have, but I'm warning you, leave Cruella out of this!” I growled, my eyes glowing bright gold but she seemed unfazed by
***AUTHOR'S POV*** “Strip” Jason's words replayed in Cruella's head and as much as her hands wanted to yank the towel off her body, her mind kept warning her not to. She knew the chances of her sleeping with Jason would be high if she did that, and he might just mark her in the process. She shook her head and took a step back, forcing back her desires as her expression became a bit serious. “I don't think now is the time for that, Jason.” Cruella said a bit hesitantly. She wanted to give in to her desires but she couldn't possibly do that at the cost of Sebastian and Kyle's life. That would have to wait for now until she figured out a way to fulfill the prophecy without losing her mates. “Is something wrong?” Jason asked with an apologetic gaze but Cruella shook her head. “No nothing is wrong. I just have to get some rest. You know, save my strength for my duel.” Cruella responded while brushing a strand of her hair behind her ear. “Oh I see. You'll definitely crush it, Cruel
***GREENVILLE*** All that could be heard were the sounds of heavy breathing, the rush of the wind and the orders from the chief guard as he yelled non stop. “Don't let her escape! Get her!” He yelled as more guards joined in the chase. Elsa kept running as fast as she could, and yet was as careful. She didn't want to trip and end up dropping the little infant which was safely cradled in her arms. Nothing else mattered to her now except this baby's life. If not for anyone else but for her queen. That's the least she could do since she couldn't protect her queen. “Get her!” She heard the chief guard's voice from behind, and realized they were gaining on her. She couldn't let them catch her, she couldn't let them kill the child. She increased her pace, running deeper into the forest even though she knew it was forbidden. Neither vampires nor witches were allowed into this forest because it's a sacred ground and the home of the white wolves. She knew that and so did the guards but
***HUMAN WORLD*** “And that's all for today.” Miss Cushion said, and everyone began leaving the lab. “Cruella, a word please.” She added the moment Cruella got up from her seat. Even though she knew why miss Cushion had called her back, she still stayed behind as the obedient student she is. She's been trying her best to adapt to the human ways and so far, she's done a great job. “I noticed your grades are slacking off this semester which is very unusual. Should I be worried about this?” Cushion asked and Cruella smiled slightly. “It's nothing to worry about miss Cush, I'm just a little distracted.” She replied politely. Miss Cush as she calls her is like a mother figure here. Aside from her best friend and boyfriend, she's the only human who's nice to her. “Okay, let me know if you need anything.” Cushion said with a smile and Cruella bounced her head before leaving. Swayer, her best friend was already at the door, waiting for her. “Let me guess, your grades?” She a
Cruella tried covering her ears as the music was too loud and uncomfortable. She ended up going to the frat party with Swayer after Ethan convinced her to come. Swayer had already left her to go dancing with the others and soon she spotted Ethan at a corner with his friends, drinking and laughing. “Babe come over here!” Ethan called, signaling her with his hand. Cruella slowly walked towards them and the other guys left them alone. Ethan offered her a drink but she turned it down since she didn't like alcohol. “Come on, it's Valentine's day. Have fun, be free and let tomorrow take care of itself.” Ethan said, giving her a reassuring smile and Cruella accepted the drink from him. “Should we go upstairs?” He asked and she furrowed her brows. “Upstairs? Why?” Cruella asked innocently. The party was being held downstairs so what would they be doing upstairs? she thought. “Come on, don't tell me you don't know why. It's Valentine's night.” Ethan said with a smirk and Cruella's
Cruella felt her heart shatter into a million pieces as Ethan pushed her to the side and walked into the lecture hall with his guys. They were all laughing as they entered and she finally realized it was all planned. How could she have been blinded by love to let her guard down? This meant he never loved her from scratch and was only trying to get into her panties and now that's done, he's finally showing her his true personality. “Cruella! Cruella are you okay?” Cruella heard Swayer's voice but she wasn't ready to face anyone now. She wasn't even sure if she could still trust Swayer at this point since Ethan had stabbed her in the back. “Cruella, come on,we can just skip the morning lectures until you feel better. First we need to take down that video.” Swayer said and grabbed Cruella's hand but she yanked it off. “Don't touch me! You're all the same! You humans are so cruel! How could I have been so blind?! How could I have thought my life would change for the better here?!”
Cruella slowly opened her eyes and at first, her vision was blurry but soon became clear as crystals which was a slight surprise since she didn't have that kind of vision. She almost got lenses but didn't have time to see an ophthalmologist and now she's opening her eyes with perfect vision? She slowly raised herself up and found herself in an unfamiliar bed, in an unfamiliar room wearing unfamiliar clothes. “Where am I?” She asked and immediately squeezed her face as she felt so hungry. She's never been this hungry before and she was confused as to what was happening. Not only did she have clear vision but felt very thirsty and hungry at the same time. Her last memory was that of the heavy blocks falling on her and then she blacked out. She suddenly remembered Swayer and jumped out of the bed. If she was still alive after everything, she hoped Swayer would be too. Almost immediately, the door came open and an elderly man holding a food tray walked in. He had a shocked expressi
Cruella clenched her fist as she watched the students crying while dropping flowers on the altar made in memory of Swayer. She couldn't even imagine how her mother would feel and she felt too guilty to pay them a visit. She also feared for their safety at this point, she didn't want to go to them and ended up killing them like she had killed Gerald. She still felt guilty over his death. Even though it wasn't her fault, she felt she had taken away someone's father or brother or friend. She knew nothing about him though but he must have had a family. “She was such a good influence in this school. I'm really going to miss her.” Maeve said before placing her flower on the table and covering her face to make it seem like she was crying. Cruella felt her blood boil and she wanted to go over there and rip Maeve's spine out of her body but she had to wait for the perfect time. She didn't want them to see her yet and so she had to control her anger, just for a little while. Soon, th

The dinner with the Queen has been peaceful so far. Cruella tried her best to stay composed and focused on her meal. She hoped that it would remain quiet until it was time to go, but luck wasn't on her side as Sheila began questioning her. “So I hear you recently enrolled in Greenville Academy. Where did you school before that?” Sheila asked and Cruella froze. She didn't prepare for any of this as the invitation came so suddenly and she knew if she said the wrong thing, she would give herself away. “I was homeschooled.” She lied and Sheila furrowed her brows. “Really? Your parents must be so protective of you to keep you hidden for so long.” Sheila stated and Cruella almost rolled her eyes. Her so-called adoptive mother didn't give a pigeon's wing about her existence, and was more than delighted to cast her away. Protective? What an irony. “Yeah, you could say that, your majesty.” Cruella responded after a while. She glanced at Carly who gave her a thumbs up before focusing o
“Carly, what are you doing?” Cruella asked Carly who has been throwing things around for almost a minute now.“I'm looking for the perfect outfit for you to wear. You need to look your best if you want to impress the Queen.” Carly gushed but Cruella frowned.“Impress her? What I want to do is separate her head from her body. I should wear something comfortable enough to fight in and not to impress her.” She stated, not hiding her resentment for Sheila.“I'm so sorry, Ella. I totally forgot about the whole revenge scheme.” Carly said with an apologetic gaze as she realized she had let her excitement get the best of her. She has never been to the palace before and knowing that her best friend got invited, she was more than happy to help her prepare, but the circumstances weren't as merry as her intentions.“I understand, Carly. I didn't mean to be hard on you. You could come with me if you like.” Cruella suggested, and Carly's jaw dropped. “I could?” She asked just to be sure.“You hea
“Harder!” Carly yelled and Cruella intensified her punching force as she kept throwing punches at the sandbag. “I still don't get the point of doing this. I already know how to throw a punch.” Cruella stated while keeping her focus on the sandbag. “I don't think you understand the stakes here, Cruella. China might seem weak but that's only because she's been holding back. Her father is a high ranking official amongst the royal counsel and she's had years of training. She would crush you at the duel if you should underestimate her.” Carly warned and Cruella turned to her. “The more reason why I should be practicing my spells or rather training my wolf. The duel is in two days and all I've been doing is punching a sandbag!” Cruella snapped and Carly rolled her eyes. “Actually all you've done is complain about everything and miss the whole point of this training.” Carly stated with a deadpan expression. “And the point is?” Cruella asked with furrowed brows. “Patience. You're so eage
Cruella stirred in her sleep, and her eyes fluttered open, her vision blurry at first but after a few seconds, it cleared up. She sat up straight while holding her head as she looked around and realized she was back at her lodge.“What? How did I get here?” She asked no one in particular. She stared at her empty bed for a second and almost immediately, the memories of the previous night hit her hard. She remembered kissing Kyle, and desperately begging to be touched, and... The door suddenly opened, interrupting Cruella's thoughts. “Finally, you're awake.” Carly said as she walked into the room. She stopped right next to the bed, her arms folded across her chest.“What happened?” Cruella asked, feeling perplexed.“You tell me.” Carly responded, her gaze hard as she awaited Cruella's response.“I... I don't remember.” Cruella stuttered.Carly creased her brows. “You Don't Remember?” She asked word for word.“At least not everything. I can't remember how I got here but...” Cruella trai
“Well don't just stand there, do something!” Carly yelled and they all exchanged glances.“What do you want us to do?” Kyle asked with a shrug.“Anything we do now would be seen as taking advantage of her.” Sebastian added.“And after what happened between her and that human guy, we can't do that to her.” Jason concluded and all three bobbed their heads in agreement.“Is it me or is it hot in here?” Cruella asked breathlessly as she ran a hand down from her neck, down to her boobs, in a seductive way.Carly groaned, obviously annoyed by the outcome of events. “Well, she's your mate, so handle her!” She snapped as she pushed Cruella towards them, Sebastian swiftly caught her and Carly walked away immediately, not giving them a second to say another word.She had a sly grin on her face as she did so. “You owe me one, Cruella.” She said to herself as she went over to the drink counter, and helped herself out to one.Cruella immediately wrapped her hands around Sebastian's neck, her gaze
When Carly and Cruella left the room, they ran into China who had a scowl on her face.“Well someone seems to be having a bad night.” Carly said with a smirk and China rolled her eyes.“I don't have time to waste on the likes of you.” China responded and made to walk past them but halted. Her gaze shifted to Cruella and she smiled, a smile that didn't reach her eyes. “You look better than I thought, for someone who got involved in an accident.” she smirked and Cruella furrowed her brows.“How did you know that?” She asked curiously.China chuckled. “Who did you think was driving the truck?” She asked and Cruella widened her eyes in shock but then her gaze suddenly darkened and she swiftly pinned China to the wall, her hands pressed tightly against China's neck.“You just keep giving me reasons to end this pathetic life of yours.” Cruella said through gritted teeth.“I'm not afraid of you Cruella.” China responded with a smile on her face even though Cruella was literally choking the l
Cruella sat on the grass, her head resting on the marble stone as she cried her heart out. The stone had a bold inscription of the name, Swayer Sapphire. “You're probably the only human who remembers me now, if only you were alive as well.” Cruella said, her tears freely flowing down her face. She raised her head from the marble, and wiped her eyes. She stared at Swayer's name and ran her finger through the inscription.“I'm so sorry, Swayer. For everything. It was all my fault and I know it now. You didn't deserve any of it, and I wish I could take it back, all of it.” she sniffed.“You probably hate me by now. Like Mrs. Cushion said, You're probably disgusted —”“No she's not.” Cruella turned to her side in shock and her eyes widened a bit.“Sebastian?” She called just to be sure he was the one.“I'm certain wherever she is, she's really proud of you.” Cruella turned to her left and her eyes widened even more.“Jason,”“Like we all are.” She heard another voice turned in the direct
