151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadlSi8f0TJ
Fire.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe2n6WPTaE
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqqH2NAo4L
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphA8IbmKOG
It’s everywhere. Roaring, crawling, tearing through the palace like it wants to erase it from existence.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMsJblDZY8
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEN57fskvi
The air is so thick with smoke I can barely breathe — and somehow, I’m here.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr1kMYb6TA
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmLUBwjtHs
Not in my room. Not anywhere familiar. Just… here.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZFpP3hNPk
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDXUhxcg32
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPwEVQE2A9
“What— what the hell— why am I—?!” I choke on the words, waving smoke from my face like that’s gonna help.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwfjmtpTLA
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIog8FMSpEp
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1joap3qUq
The floor trembles beneath me. The ceiling cracks. Somewhere, someone screams.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQoiutuOrO
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmuJR70CgF
And then I see her.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHywD2Kla1
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyyWn1f9Vh
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2o2Z9GhZe
A woman, sprawled on the marble floor — skin pale, eyes shut, too still. Her hand is stretched out like she was reaching for someone who never came.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTDT110GXM
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1qDaKlGD4
My stomach twists. “Who… who is she?”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKKANVldbR
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6xmt4KGLw
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRV4K7nTeKd
I drop to my knees beside her. The moment my fingers touch her cheek, I flinch.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsrlJHq4XO
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfFIZvjNdP
Cold. Not human cold — wrong cold. Like the warmth’s been ripped out of her.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0QNq48v1j
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNympNiPyL
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ldr7WnlFh
“Wake up,” I whisper. “Please— just wake up.”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZmjTKQckQ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunbcpXVneM
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyPffDuQAz
No answer. Just the fire, and the world dying around us.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7c83ipbrw9
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbCnh35l3e
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ScJqhGJPf
Then — footsteps.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DIglSPQ1u
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrxa5pmuxc
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRqFvn9COf
Slow, echoing, steady.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFIB65FI9D
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtgiuSBBqW
Every instinct in me freezes.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NVfQ6cwiI
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnwm9LU63T
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLGLLPI40T
I turn.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpAUL9IU2O
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqed9u0M9t
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpftkDOE824
There’s a boy walking through the smoke.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccQ2LJozHk
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxUqJ9ETCC
Golden hair catching the firelight, blue eyes like winter — too calm for all this chaos.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeQxGpGcvp
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡni6bJEDRlw
He looks straight at me.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtcvVK7XWv
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUT22v0H3P
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡan9Opn8929
My chest tightens. I don’t know why, but I feel it — him.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrews94EFb
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrbvmfLfUq
The same boy. The one who killed Clara.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu98drKSgF
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoqEJSeVoE
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYs3MNEXyOh
“You—!” My voice cracks, too high, too fast. “You killed Clara! You— you stabbed her! Don’t you dare act innocent!”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmBkoT9uSV
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVugdKmkJV
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6GXtzp7zj
He blinks, frowning. “Killed… Clara?”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxM7agkv0r
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HKJAhNn5m
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KjEFP9GJq
“Don’t act like you don’t know! You killed her!”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWr5Zg9kyN
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpko8nxgSY
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhL17dRPeKH
He takes a step closer, slow, deliberate. His voice drops low.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhA3eTyjuGo
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Oi7A21yuL
“You mean the princess?”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup2GkMYtS1
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCP4Fhn0Mhr
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdwMlcgFTS
“Who else?!” I snap. “You looked her in the eye and—”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxezBlnuyq8
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rJgmm3rMw
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtA8esTdL7T
He interrupts, calm as ever. “You didn’t let me.”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YNdbfQZnk
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiTIpwPSFM
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexCkdJfjp5
I freeze.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3kQXO7zr0
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1W9k6L214
“What?”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aQwXx8vY4
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lDuNSkQjz
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCYwX3eFrg
“You didn’t let me,” he says again, quiet but sharp enough to cut through the smoke. “Just like before.”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmd1OtUKLH1
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeOlSGcRgy
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1iWASEPKJ
“Before?” I stare at him. “What before?! I don’t even know you!”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1t6PtWyKZ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2DxKVsPzQ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUo6IOGJhK
He tilts his head, studying me — not angry, not scared, just… sad.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsSp9Bgrst
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DkKRtsTsR
“Yes, you do.”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9jAiHUgYZ
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVT3Y8WQUU
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgUISDWldy
Something in my chest twists hard, like my body’s remembering something my brain won’t.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXjE4goy04
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ssHxziGtb
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oovmdEEBs
The fire flares higher. The walls groan. And suddenly, he’s closer — too close — the air thick between us.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHomMEL86z5
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfY4bjYghjg
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwY4y6TGjqW
“Why— why is this happening?” I whisper, my voice shaking. “Why is everything burning?”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAgPI7TCpt
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGNuL76Kjy
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblJrOyYCoX
He doesn’t answer. He just looks at me, those blue eyes cutting right through the smoke — and it’s like the world stops breathing.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVc5oRvuVG
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiBcjPUYjL
The sound fades. The light slows.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwiopzLZmW
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh45f8VxM6l
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyh19dKE5A
I can’t move. Can’t think.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhONWuh8OM
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZZqrq7ZMM
His eyes— they’re so… familiar.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmGS5VM4Lu
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3SU90UUcy
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLH0yMDBTp
My vision starts blurring. Heat, light, noise all swirl together until I can barely see him anymore.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQhfZ0InIh
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCp48tQF4G1
My thoughts scatter — fear, confusion, anger — and somewhere in the mess, I hear myself mutter,151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Qi2Q4yWDP
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR9zetna5W
“Fine. Whatever this is— you owe me one.”151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXM7J1qu5XL
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbN64krGLpH
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPz75CRJycl
He blinks, startled. Maybe even amused. I don’t know. Because the next second—151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh4zI9oJFw
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtxG0b8vps
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOMAelTtsT
Everything collapses.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiPq1eDVMn
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZLrL1Cc6B
The fire fades.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDLbS79P7S
151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlyaEpYtqL
And I’m gone.1234 copyright protection147ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRLvzEhY3B 尼
