My lungs burn like I’ve been breathing smoke all night. Sweat sticks to my skin, the sheets tangled around me like ropes. For one second, I almost expect to see fire again — those flames crawling up the palace walls, that boy’s cold blue eyes staring through them.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVp4kgwjJ6k

But there’s no fire now.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUf6x4Sc9JF

Just sunlight.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0RSPUud1j
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5disPxOWiX
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxJygpOzkB
Warm, quiet, golden sunlight spilling through silk curtains that don’t belong in my room.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo936tmG0eW

I sit up fast. My head spins.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpGVWnaF5a
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOMBOqU2mA
Everything’s too… perfect. Too expensive. The air smells like lavender and something faintly metallic.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakHYu8jej2

Right. The palace. The festival. Clara.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzwP1JTj6H

The image hits me so hard I almost gag — her body on the floor, the nobles screaming, his hand, the knife. And then… me, blurting out something insane just to save him.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtq1Vp9rE5

I drag my knees up to my chest and bury my face in them. “What the hell did I just do?”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7yTjb8Osj
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZGcwPeK1V
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqO0hV0rJe3
No answer. Just birds chirping outside, like the universe doesn’t care that someone got murdered last night.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQnoiEyGod

I glance around the room again — huge, pale marble floors, carved furniture, and a mirror taller than me.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgDaOMaTr4
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLhzt8mVbv
A stranger’s reflection stares back — long black hair, soft white dress, bare feet.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPzsB2w61I
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjbMVC3xkd
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZm7KW7mw7C
That’s not Lily. That’s Ariana.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1d4UBUAwQv

My stomach twists. “Okay,” I mutter to myself, “so this is still happening. I didn’t dream the dream. Fantastic.”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlFgUIXJHl
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltFjjNFR8R

I press a hand to my forehead, trying to breathe. The air’s too heavy, like the whole room’s watching me.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69fj1lfquX

132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYl2T4Pq6t5
Somewhere outside, a bell rings. Footsteps echo down the corridor. Servants. Life going on like nothing happened.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9FVljOGX1

I whisper, “Clara’s dead. And I’m still here.”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAtAYgWbpe
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcy6Gy2k9n
The words taste wrong. Bitter.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQm3Agw9D0
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEd4j4RUZW
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXI4Gl96xIr
Then a colder thought creeps in — slow, dangerous.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TNtGJgUDI
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYjN5vcC1K
That boy.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAD4XD8HaU

I can still see his face — that blank calm, the blue in his eyes when he looked at me like he’d seen me before.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtx73enBK0

I grip the blanket tighter. “Who even are you?” I mutter, voice shaking. “And why do I feel like… I know you?”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzjFKGSAoS

Silence. Only my heartbeat answers back.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcy5RNYVNV5

I fall back on the bed, staring at the ceiling.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84w6rj5NAS
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSvUvTjBQd
My throat feels dry, my brain a mess of too many questions and zero logic.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbW2ScmZzNS
