None of this belongs to me; the characters and the main story line belong to Lili St. Crow, who is awesome by the way. I know this is quite different to my other stuff but I'm thinking of starting a series of very short one-shots about all the characters in the Strange Angels series. R&R for more!
I closed my eyes and breathed deeply. What is she doing here? She shouldn't be here! It was hard enough getting rid of Elizabeth. Now her offspring is walking around like she owns this Schola? No chance! I am the queen. The one they look up to and adore. The same way I look up to, and adore, Christophe. If only he knew. But he's too busy jumping every time little Dru tells him to. All she has to do is snap her fingers and every djamphir and wulf in this place will be falling over at her feet. It should be me they're running after. Dru has no place here. At least she's only at this reform Schola. It would be so much worse if she was at the Schola in New York. But why does Christophe have to be here with her?
That... girl shouldn't be here. She doesn't deserve to be here. With everyone fawning over her and calling her their queen. I am their queen! Little Dru needs to go the same way as her precious parents and grandma. I can arrange that though. The little bitch needs to watch out.
I open my eyes. Smooth the candy pink silk of my fitted gown against my perfectly flat stomach and fix up my most sugary sweet smile. No one needs to know my plans. Not until it's too late for them to stop me. The heels of my boots click against the wooden floorboards as I walk away. I'm better than her. And she'd better watch out.
