Se connecterNicolai's men burst through the building's entrance, weapons drawn and eyes sharp.Nicolai didn't flinch. "Kent." He said firmly, eyes still locked on Stephan. "Get Jasmine and the kids. I don't want them seeing this.""On it." Kent replied, already moving.He sprinted to Jasmine, helping her steady the twins as their little arms clung tightly to her. "You're safe now. Come on—this way."With practiced calm, he guided them out of the chaos, shielding them as he led them outside to a safe spot. Once they were clear, he gave a small nod and turned back.Inside, Stephan's face was twisted with fury. "You'll pay for this, Nicolai Devan!" He screamed. "You've ruined everything!" He turned to his men, shouting. "Take them down!"Gunfire erupted, echoing through the building. But Stephan's forces didn't stand a chance—Nicolai's men were better trained, more precise, and more focused. Within seconds, the room fell into a heavy silence, Stephan the only one still standing.His confidence falter
"The last healer." Cruella muttered, shaking her head with a bitter chuckle. "Who would have thought someone like you would carry such power." Her eyes narrowed as she turned to Stephan. "It all makes sense now. Everything you've been doing... I see the reason. So tell me—what now that you've got her?"Stephan smirked, his gaze fixed unwaveringly on Jasmine. "What do you think?" He replied coolly, not even glancing at Cruella. "She's worth a fortune, and she doesn't even realize it. You, Jasmine... you're my ticket to immense wealth. And I intend to cash in." He laughed darkly. "I thought about keeping you for myself. But no... selling you to the highest bidder sounds far more profitable. And Nicolai? Don't worry about him. I considered ending him myself, but..." He finally turned to Cruella. "I'll let you handle that part."Cruella's voice hardened, her jaw tightening. "Good for you, but leave Nicolai out of this. He's mine and mine alone."Stephan raised his hands in mock surrender.
"Cruella!!" Jasmine screamed as she rushed into the building, breathing heavily.Her eyes frantically scanned the place but she saw no one."Cruella!" She screamed again, her voice fearful and urgent.Suddenly, a loud laughter echoed throughout the building, then Cruella emerged from the back of a truck, clapping her hands."Bravo, Jasmine. Bravo!" She laughed. "For one second I thought you wouldn't make it, and I was about letting them drown your precious twins." Jasmine's eyes burned with fury. "Where are they, Cruella. Give them to me!" She demanded furiously, her body slightly trembling with rage."Fine, but I can't guarantee the safety of any of you." She snapped her fingers and two men emerged from behind the same truck, each holding the twins.When the twins saw their mother, they began struggling with the men holding them, crying and asking them to let them go. With a signal from Cruella, the men let them go, and they instantly rushed into the awaiting arms of their mother.J
Jasmine was still in her room when she heard the sound of a car pulling into the compound. Her heart jumped. She quickly stood up from where she was sitting on the floor and rushed to the window. Her hands shook as she pulled the curtain aside, hoping—just maybe—that Nicolai had brought the twins back.A few seconds later, the car door opened. Nicolai stepped out. Then Kent. She looked hard, praying to see two small figures following them. But no one else came out.She knew it, deep down—but it still crushed her.Her knees felt weak, and she stumbled back from the window. Hot tears spilled down from her face again. The twins were really gone. Cruella had taken them. And there was nothing she could do but cry and hope it wasn't the end.Cruella's words echoed in Jasmine's mind as she wiped her tears and forced herself to stand. Her chest felt tight, but she breathed through the pain, steadying her trembling hands. There was no time to fall apart. Not now. Not when her children needed h
Kent had just returned with the search party. Outside the mansion, Nicolai and Jasmine waited anxiously. The moment Jasmine caught sight of the guard cradling Isabella's lifeless body, she gasped and raised a trembling hand to her mouth, her eyes brimming with disbelief.Nicolai's expression hardened. His voice cut through the silence. "What happened, Kent?""She took her own life." Kent replied solemnly. "It looks like she ingested a large quantity of wolfsbane. By the time we found her, it was already too late."Jasmine shook her head, sorrow creasing her features. "But why? Why would she choose death over coming clean—for someone like Cruella?""Fear." Nicolai answered, his tone heavy with certainty. "I can still smell it on her. She was terrified of what awaited her... and that fear became her prison." He paused, the weight of the moment hanging in the air. "Whatever her sins, see to it that she receives a proper burial."With that, he turned and walked back into the house.Jasmin
The sun shone gently through the tall windows of the dining room, casting a soft light over the table. Jasmine sat quietly across from Nicolai, slowly stirring her tea while he focused on his breakfast. The twins had already left for school, leaving the house quiet for now.The peaceful silence was broken by the sound of footsteps approaching. Kent walked in, his expression brightening as he caught sight of them."Good morning." He said warmly. "It's good to see you both."Nicolai looked up and smiled. "Kent. Please, join us." He said, motioning toward the empty seat at the table.Kent nodded gratefully and sat down. His gaze turned to Jasmine. "How are you feeling?" He asked, his tone gentle. "It's really good to have you back. I can only imagine what you've been through."Jasmine offered a soft smile. "Thank you, Kent. It's good to see you too."At that moment, the maid stepped forward, placing a plate in front of Kent and carefully serving him breakfast. As he picked up his fork, h
Jasmine was savoring the snacks they'd bought earlier, enjoying the peacefulness of her room. A knock at the door broke the silence. She hastily swallowed her snack and called out, "Come in!"The door swung open, and Nicolai stepped inside, closing it behind him. His eyes widened in surprise as he to
"Thank you for doing this." Nicolai said to Jasmine. He's just brought her to see one of the best licenced therapist in the city."I know I need help, and I'm happy that I'll be getting that help, so you're the one that I need to thank for helping me with this." Jasmine smiled."It's nothing."A nurse
"Won't you girls go rest in your room? It's late already, and you both need to get a good rest, I promise I'll be fine on my own." Jasmine said to Samantha and Clara. They've been with her all day, not letting her out of their sights, and she kinda feel bad about it."Not a chance, the Alpha specific
"So, how did it go?" Kent asked when Nicolai joined him outside."She said she was sleepwalking, that's how she ended up there.""That's bad, I didn't know she has that disorder.""And that wouldn't have happened if those guards were doing their job. They need to be punished, Kent. I'm leaving that up
