Cruella P.O.V

As soon as Y/N looked inside my eyes, I knew she recognized me. Her semblance was indescribable as she tried to find words to say. The night darkened her face, but it didn't stop me from noticing a single tear rolling down her left cheek. My heart broke.

"I know it's too much information but please help us," I said with a desperate tone. "I can explain everything once we're far away from here."

"Y/N, please." begged Jasper.

She took a deep breath and, reluctantly, unlocked the doors. I sighed in relief when I sat on the passenger seat while Horace and Jasper sat in the back.

"Step on the gas!" Horace shouted. "I can hear the police sirens!"

She accelerated and started driving as fast as she could, dodging the pedestrians along the way. The Baroness' guards attempted to catch up, but it didn't take long until they gave up. We made it.

"Where to?" She asked coldly.

"My warehouse." I answered.

The entire car ride towards our destination was filled with the most torturous silence I've ever witnessed. None of us dared to say anything. The only thing I could do was watch the tears falling from her eyes as she drove angrily, holding the steering wheel with all her strength.

It was all my fault.

"We're here." She said while stopping the car.

The boys gave me one last reassuring look before getting out of the car, leaving me alone with her.

"Come inside with me." I replied. "We need to talk."

"Oh, great." She laughed ironically. "I'm excited to hear what other lies you're going to tell me now."

"I'm so sorry." I said. "I didn't know what to do."

"Really?" Another ironic laugh. "Telling the truth never crossed your mind? Being honest? You fooled me, Estella! For months!"

"I was scared!" I shouted, making her jump. I took a deep breath, recomposing myself. "You like Estella, but she's not me. I was afraid you were not going to want me anymore."

"If you told me, I would've tried to understand." I felt tears falling from my face as she spoke. "Do you know how much it hurts to realize I opened up to someone who I don't even know now?"

"Please, give me the chance to show you the real me this time." I said. "Leave the Baroness and that humiliating job, stay with me."

"How can I trust you?" She questioned. "How can I be sure you won't hide things from me anymore?"

"Because I love you, darling." I smiled through my tears. "And I know you love me too. I might be evil and a little mad, but I'm not a monster. Let me prove that."

She looked at me intensely, probably trying to find some sort of honesty behind my now messy makeup and teary eyes. I caressed her face with the back of my hand, the feeling of her soft skin calming my mind for a bit. My hopes were not high, but I was not going to give up.

"If you break me one more time, you're dead, Estella." She defeatedly said, closing her eyes. "That's your last chance."

My heart filled with the purest happiness I've ever felt in my life as soon as I heard her response. My smile went big, and all I could do was give her the most passionate kiss I have ever given to someone. The taste of our salty tears invaded my mouth as I pulled her closer to me as much as possible. My hands pressed against her hips while her nails sunk deeper and deeper in the back of my head.

"Estella was good, sure," I said teasingly with a smirk on my face. "but Cruella can be way more fun in bed. Shall we try, darling?"

"I hate Cruella already." She laughed quietly.

"I love you too."
