150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYX7XiInwWK
Fire.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgv9BfHyj2
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqCpAGEINe
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJER2OfiAr
It’s everywhere. Roaring, crawling, tearing through the palace like it wants to erase it from existence.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKduWccRDJ
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcGYCH1UDa
The air is so thick with smoke I can barely breathe — and somehow, I’m here.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOfwef2mzK
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXiPJpOepT
Not in my room. Not anywhere familiar. Just… here.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCkLGfAc1a
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1lY6ZrkQC
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2Y8m5KJeL
“What— what the hell— why am I—?!” I choke on the words, waving smoke from my face like that’s gonna help.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZW8RKyofH
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgbMGbY4tX
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFrP9F0YpB
The floor trembles beneath me. The ceiling cracks. Somewhere, someone screams.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZCjN436q4
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFm50Sc8Z7l
And then I see her.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboWWMgnTsH
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryghTGwRcn
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29JC3w91Vi
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.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4vgcASKE1
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnc6LwblCyT
My stomach twists. “Who… who is she?”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0c2C2VpBJ
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTXln641VW
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCUoFQhDnM
I drop to my knees beside her. The moment my fingers touch her cheek, I flinch.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKADhPFCxc
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB3zCFOiKz
Cold. Not human cold — wrong cold. Like the warmth’s been ripped out of her.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjRhW5TJAt
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZcKJXM7Ia
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWd3BGLBA8U
“Wake up,” I whisper. “Please— just wake up.”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2S8pOba4m
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqIfjRZeVi
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8DCSDxsqt
No answer. Just the fire, and the world dying around us.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENZVLBdNT4
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ajwte6XUo
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7XSp2oUqc
Then — footsteps.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKT1idntv23
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSjNHV1L4b
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKdzqlFDwT
Slow, echoing, steady.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi0wnPrOtd
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyVRlQoQ5V
Every instinct in me freezes.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTj4YKlpQrV
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoFPJTwTug
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqsdW4J2Qe
I turn.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5VHBA2e00
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjOMRm1qMc
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdurWsqn2P
There’s a boy walking through the smoke.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hQ3BoYKh2
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTku1gy9VyJ
Golden hair catching the firelight, blue eyes like winter — too calm for all this chaos.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiiSp2NpMO
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtUCFyCDkV
He looks straight at me.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfa4XyShNJe
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmSdzsgwYU
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXiw2fwYx7
My chest tightens. I don’t know why, but I feel it — him.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4Ee2uJQz5
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPq7pVB3x5
The same boy. The one who killed Clara.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt65CAZchXX
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyJ9bt4Rej
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPt8spHo3rT
“You—!” My voice cracks, too high, too fast. “You killed Clara! You— you stabbed her! Don’t you dare act innocent!”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7XY1267Dz
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3Z6pf08Iw
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzmCkHysDX
He blinks, frowning. “Killed… Clara?”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPESXMLoixw
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrA4pOHEqhc
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFDVWsx3y4
“Don’t act like you don’t know! You killed her!”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yEQAJCm6J
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOaT1oBV3r
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgS1JKoK239
He takes a step closer, slow, deliberate. His voice drops low.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSxG4wNB7D
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHwzhuTYkL
“You mean the princess?”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhlQuldyQp
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqQfjHRBtu
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnw1Bwt3q7N
“Who else?!” I snap. “You looked her in the eye and—”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4e4E3WOQVn
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUIP3pKfr1
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5c2iTcxTc
He interrupts, calm as ever. “You didn’t let me.”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIU8zfqRiYd
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlelm2gOtb
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSctfxpJa0W
I freeze.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSecPqh7z2E
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYgLqPDmzg
“What?”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5do1Gbb2sF
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc94Tl8fXza
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaA2sVG1af
“You didn’t let me,” he says again, quiet but sharp enough to cut through the smoke. “Just like before.”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlh5FxHQSo
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzq8ZEO2dZs
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhl7Skbk5zS
“Before?” I stare at him. “What before?! I don’t even know you!”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ieqIFbmQB
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwaTutKoRe
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeIkGjeYjD
He tilts his head, studying me — not angry, not scared, just… sad.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBxh6xOxCo
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdQQJxktcJ
“Yes, you do.”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPF0fEbSup
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpU9jJwJ37
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzzL6plaJ9
Something in my chest twists hard, like my body’s remembering something my brain won’t.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzP3diaVFG
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBNmpzCecN
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgkWGvcgEm
The fire flares higher. The walls groan. And suddenly, he’s closer — too close — the air thick between us.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfN3bqKvfM
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb2RQXjOBg
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjILYAdDLd
“Why— why is this happening?” I whisper, my voice shaking. “Why is everything burning?”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLpkPn1Nia
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHmPlOOqz7
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fghsIJizj
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.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVxK0WZw56
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBCU2aPp1A
The sound fades. The light slows.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TgwAY9G2p
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCUdOF8NPz
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYu9VUHIze
I can’t move. Can’t think.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVTw1TdtoV
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEd374Qhvc
His eyes— they’re so… familiar.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPLRZWgg1u
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkttBhw88re
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YgBM0cV1s
My vision starts blurring. Heat, light, noise all swirl together until I can barely see him anymore.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7EbgsmhwT
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1BVjoLPBK
My thoughts scatter — fear, confusion, anger — and somewhere in the mess, I hear myself mutter,150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbU0CT5LrD
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPtrjJHl2J
“Fine. Whatever this is— you owe me one.”150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzFoyyujUs
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5gLRWd12w
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipMXpjA596
He blinks, startled. Maybe even amused. I don’t know. Because the next second—150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoANKTsfks
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlIDI8nZaz
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbPPf7xGhW
Everything collapses.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuM96p6Mwi5
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1heW6UvhpZ
The fire fades.150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w6AW0PUJy
150Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6piwVxo5oO
And I’m gone.1234 copyright protection146ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWlqF5a57c 尼
