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.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B1MN0VbAS

But there’s no fire now.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFf7Y4X80S

Just sunlight.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5ODqdxxqU

Warm, quiet, golden sunlight spilling through silk curtains that don’t belong in my room.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv07wI20Bf

I sit up fast. My head spins.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ467sPgBzf7

Everything’s too… perfect. Too expensive. The air smells like lavender and something faintly metallic.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43HTfd9hnl

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.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVT8gewXAY

I drag my knees up to my chest and bury my face in them. “What the hell did I just do?”194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlR74HaP6B

No answer. Just birds chirping outside, like the universe doesn’t care that someone got murdered last night.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FGZvon3At

I glance around the room again — huge, pale marble floors, carved furniture, and a mirror taller than me.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡny7vbjaFn3
194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkB7UYxwVP7
A stranger’s reflection stares back — long black hair, soft white dress, bare feet.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AExrTDjQt

My stomach twists. “Okay,” I mutter to myself, “so this is still happening. I didn’t dream the dream. Fantastic.”194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDrz7lrQWI

I press a hand to my forehead, trying to breathe. The air’s too heavy, like the whole room’s watching me.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuedyWhHjjm

Somewhere outside, a bell rings. Footsteps echo down the corridor. Servants. Life going on like nothing happened.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGc9tSVbqM1

I whisper, “Clara’s dead. And I’m still here.”194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vhDJMK93O
194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnUMpwHkOA
The words taste wrong. Bitter.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YPHkRrpkB

Then a colder thought creeps in — slow, dangerous.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgbsLrpAB2

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.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Mcy0VAPAq

I grip the blanket tighter. “Who even are you?” I mutter, voice shaking. “And why do I feel like… I know you?”194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXE5VFZNpdO

I fall back on the bed, staring at the ceiling.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPZD8O8YVP

My throat feels dry, my brain a mess of too many questions and zero logic.194Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIobKFd2VL
