152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfqTUe5LE5
Fire.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMoTwXaiOb
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUSDkoMehE
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkHkmr4Ab6
It’s everywhere. Roaring, crawling, tearing through the palace like it wants to erase it from existence.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWodL8s2jU
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHweE0wRxI
The air is so thick with smoke I can barely breathe — and somehow, I’m here.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbutGs7T9Pz
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6zGBIYWoi
Not in my room. Not anywhere familiar. Just… here.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9j7apBMAo
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFuwZRfF96
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIdhp4i1ps
“What— what the hell— why am I—?!” I choke on the words, waving smoke from my face like that’s gonna help.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFWMAhqYSd
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmKziUWBW6
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVBzf84ctS
The floor trembles beneath me. The ceiling cracks. Somewhere, someone screams.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIFocYD15N
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQKqsRZmJO
And then I see her.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVnaNwmkOy
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvbUBKtjiG
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3PdG4sVjK
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.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPDm20mdRJ
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWAhgqnoD0
My stomach twists. “Who… who is she?”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2T1QBU0uOn
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3EinwSGrt
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19WZGCU4lW
I drop to my knees beside her. The moment my fingers touch her cheek, I flinch.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHH3IRbePZ
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrQlApxtqJ
Cold. Not human cold — wrong cold. Like the warmth’s been ripped out of her.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0NUvn3Yi7
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUeBu67Itf
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOLhnyQDeO
“Wake up,” I whisper. “Please— just wake up.”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgL5TV4HfAX
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLtd88AwEk
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemIjahLE9V
No answer. Just the fire, and the world dying around us.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmV19YgH5bL
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYz4FEE7Uuv
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1GMVsXzws
Then — footsteps.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQascRse4DV
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmU9ZO8dsPd
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAUlRlR0E3
Slow, echoing, steady.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnczPh1gzP
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNdP3I7c0T
Every instinct in me freezes.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUR5nofnDgY
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwS5oNvbUD7
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTXRozvOxP
I turn.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvRecgSx8t
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiv2mhzPfE
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodxyps5i1b
There’s a boy walking through the smoke.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSQlsUztt6
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3Os2Kpe7c
Golden hair catching the firelight, blue eyes like winter — too calm for all this chaos.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVdx35VSXl
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNrznr4WJ8
He looks straight at me.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt33sI0Byd3
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXv2I9OQtJ
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEU1BMN8Jap
My chest tightens. I don’t know why, but I feel it — him.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRljixS8o5
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9MUZIpU4B
The same boy. The one who killed Clara.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQ0leNAq7X
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBPy6IcxT6
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznGPc9V2Kd
“You—!” My voice cracks, too high, too fast. “You killed Clara! You— you stabbed her! Don’t you dare act innocent!”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnteJOFODG3
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWzKKYj1XR
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOIy9QtkTW
He blinks, frowning. “Killed… Clara?”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6aOZxDVN5
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZImfd8JviM
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVBWfyUnqF
“Don’t act like you don’t know! You killed her!”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgb0nNVvkl
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEW8uTgAhU
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9DOtwNJ9T
He takes a step closer, slow, deliberate. His voice drops low.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Whm2rZ7dk
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCNqD9fHVN
“You mean the princess?”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUgvVBE6cn
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cfX1nzkFP
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1sKBWVGIB
“Who else?!” I snap. “You looked her in the eye and—”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1oD3iwcbT
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mTpF3PQjZ
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ULyVgmuTS
He interrupts, calm as ever. “You didn’t let me.”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITXrcygqeK
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzd57ClUD9
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3qzo8ni09
I freeze.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvWZv9VDn1
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YPZuDdLq0
“What?”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj22qTlKz7E
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRO2gSzb0f
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNae4weAOBn
“You didn’t let me,” he says again, quiet but sharp enough to cut through the smoke. “Just like before.”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96m1xnEowV
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cf7TNbxAn
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfluWKGF4tC
“Before?” I stare at him. “What before?! I don’t even know you!”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiHwPZA1o6
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLrFd558oc
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmHhTDwk5J
He tilts his head, studying me — not angry, not scared, just… sad.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiGFL6TRu5
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Vc7FdtVXL
“Yes, you do.”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZ2EquQS6h
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnvmSXjynN
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKKKkNAF1T
Something in my chest twists hard, like my body’s remembering something my brain won’t.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfpXSNDVqu
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtlo8sgzX8
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4o17bTbmP
The fire flares higher. The walls groan. And suddenly, he’s closer — too close — the air thick between us.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsc0xD5tRGj
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXFIFXIMbq
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh628Xx7vV9
“Why— why is this happening?” I whisper, my voice shaking. “Why is everything burning?”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOfxoST9fm
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjgguWKBN2
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jrRblyNX8
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.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWazN5mF3M
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZT6A1zxuh
The sound fades. The light slows.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCipMBcZvD8
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP0RIzhtZK
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXLdtnIgYp
I can’t move. Can’t think.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfvA1f1rV9
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdoby3oEXd
His eyes— they’re so… familiar.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXgEvPPdHu
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIofham8Bv
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqizICIEVPw
My vision starts blurring. Heat, light, noise all swirl together until I can barely see him anymore.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOr0MMKM12
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBtqfU5By0
My thoughts scatter — fear, confusion, anger — and somewhere in the mess, I hear myself mutter,152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfntLcPMPF
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEXlXiUGqa
“Fine. Whatever this is— you owe me one.”152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TLgUXVG9r
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpXmUFL8fz
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ800v3r1YoH
He blinks, startled. Maybe even amused. I don’t know. Because the next second—152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWASiPLTdGY
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8x1Wl44nX
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnY0FN3Hhz
Everything collapses.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oO8sPiRbr
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ysPHapkT4
The fire fades.152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlPtegIeeX
152Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PXi0Wbn2F
And I’m gone.1234 copyright protection148ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSwiPrl72C 尼
