All Chapters of PRETTY DEVILS : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Eden's POVAs I walked into the lab with Kyle, the hum of chatter and the scent of disinfectant filled the air. The room was already half-filled with students, their eyes swiveling to gaze at us as we entered. I smiled inwardly, accustomed to the attention. We made our way to an empty desk near the back of the classroom, our movements fluid and synchronized.As we sat down, I caught Kyle's eye, and he raised an eyebrow, his piercing sapphire eyes sparkling with amusement. We waited in silence for the lab instructor to arrive, our presence drawing occasional glances from our classmates.More students filed into the classroom, the room growing quieter as they took their seats. I leaned forward, my elbows on the desk, my eyes fixed on my phone as I scrolled through it. The soft glow of the screen illuminated my face, casting a faint shadow on the desk.Suddenly, a sweet, pleasant scent wafted through the air, capturing my attention. I looked up, my eyes locking onto Pearl, who was search

Pearl's POVI really don't understand Eden anymore. Does he want me around him or not? He has been acting cold and pushing me away, although out today but then he invites me to a party I don't want to be in but I foolishly accepted. Quite strange. I wanted to say ‘No' but I really couldn't muster up the courage to turn him down, not when he looks so handsome and when I truly enjoy being around him. So I ended up saying ‘Yes' and something inside was telling me I was going to regret that discussion...As I stood in the hallway, surrounded by the hustle and bustle of students rushing to their next class, my best friend Nelly approached me with a silly smile plastered on her face. "So you are going to the party after all?" she asked, her eyes sparkling with excitement.I sighed softly, my shoulders sagging slightly. "I guess I am," I replied, my bright blue eyes gazing down at the floor.Nelly's grin widened. "So do you have any dress you plan on wearing? Or is it time for an emergency s

Pearl's POVNelly's eyes sparkled with amusement as she gazed at me, her voice laced with a hint of teasing. "You're searching for him, right?" she asked, her brow arched in inquiry.I shifted my gaze to hers, my bright blue eyes locking onto hers. "Who?" I asked, feigning innocence.Nelly chuckled, her eyes crinkling at the corners. "Eden," she said, her voice dripping with knowingness.I shook my head, my long, curly brown hair bouncing with the movement. "N...No, I'm not," I denied, trying to sound convincing.Nelly raised an eyebrow, her expression skeptical. "Then who have you been restlessly searching for with your eyes?" she asked, her voice tinged with amusement.I shrugged, trying to appear nonchalant. "No one," I lied, my voice flat.Nelly snorted, her eyes sparkling with mirth. "Really? We're at a party, but since we arrived, you haven't danced, drunk, or moved your body. You haven't done anything at all, other than turning your neck up and down like an ostrich searching fo

Eden's POV Maybe she doesn't want to kill him? But if she doesn't want to kill him she can easily cast a crippling spell on him that would make both of his legs useless or even better still she can just turn him into a frog temporarily or permanently I won't mind. I raised an eyebrow, intrigued by the possibilities. I can't say he doesn't deserve that. Why is she still waiting? Could it be that she isn't really a witch? Is she really in need of help?? I doubted, my piercing blue eyes narrowing. I really doubt that. She most likely just wants to play along, teasing him to believe he is in control and she is helpless until she shows her true nature to him and makes his life into a miserable nightmare.I watched, my eyes fixed on Pearl's struggling form. Her bright blue eyes were wide with fear, her long, curly brown hair disheveled as she tried to break free from Jack's grasp. She sounds genuinely in trouble and my heart kept burning inside for me to help her. She is really one good a

Eden's tall, lean frame paused, his broad shoulders squared as he stood still, his back to Pearl. His dark hair fell around his chiseled features, which were set in a determined expression. The air around him seemed to vibrate with tension, as if he was struggling to contain some inner turmoil.He began walking away but then Pearl's soft voice called out to him, her bright blue eyes fixed on his back. "Eden," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. Eden's piercing blue eyes seemed to flicker, his gaze darting around as if searching for an escape route.His deep, smooth voice was laced with a cold, detached tone. "What is it?" he asked, his words dripping with indifference. Pearl's slender face was pale, her delicate features etched with concern. "Do you hate me?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly.Eden's eyes seemed to flash, his pupils contracting as if in surprise. His sharp jawline clenched, his facial muscles tense with emotion. Hate her? The thought seemed to echo in h
