When I wake up, the first thing I see isn’t my ceiling.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iRHZVvEIu
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7EA7u9rpC
No glow from my phone. No pile of empty chip packets.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkC95UkUon
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJpLKPjjIX
Just a white canopy, silk sheets, and gold that’s way too shiny for my tax bracket.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XHYM7TfZH
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYfoHET2uA
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuBVnAlBeI
And then—132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Fo9SlccBN
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3O569xTz7
it hits me.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWMyU6k2dA
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqZTMBMmaU
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHN6NkozWb0
Not like a gentle memory montage.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFv7p8dZiB
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2mBpCannT
More like a truck.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBuXKwVxr4
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0lHjWt4et
Flashes. Fire. Clara’s face. His eyes.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12Bz5hOtt5
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZy4bfU6r10
The Witch. The King. Me.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq82aWSOyyK
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTwbjmsZem
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHYcir07Xm
I sit up, heart pounding. My hands are shaking.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5COZtnO2M
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJF00RVQ902
I know now. I know who I am.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wLbsgRXGr
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDQWOUWA3z
And I know what’s about to happen.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEb9WOFvRE
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiO5bWRU21
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXQI92gVz8
Somewhere out there, he’s about to die.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZIH3A075l
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcBvZTycEP
For killing Clara.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Vpn35Rdnt
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwJvNWizYT
And I… I remember why.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeLTyc7MGL
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWm3b5EAhVE
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvie3PO5m7
I don’t even think.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnu07AcqZi
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjEmo1Pb4D
I throw on the first robe I find and bolt through the hallways.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDoviswZar
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0q6rZOnLa
Servants gasp, guards yell, someone calls me Your Grace —132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDRurlc3ht
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxkquA2XRT
but I don’t stop.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoBvU08itZ
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYu99CS88iA
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncCZ5WfSCU
Because I can see it in my head —132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AcR887XI0
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1UxeJFXrL
that boy, the one with the ocean-blue eyes and the calm that makes you want to scream,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgs2A1xn14
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJ56apdrM8
being dragged toward a block of stone.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tivMD6f5E
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1MdWQKvSJ
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpdfsfERCD
By the time I reach the courtyard, my lungs are on fire.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTMhPp24m6
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQo5G5NtLyo
He’s there. Kneeling. Rope cutting into his wrists.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoXqqveLBn
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERnjBS5g0o
The sword’s already raised.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDu5KVPCfzZ
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYlUsvb56D
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVV4gB0PnPf
And I just—132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4iylgLs97
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVZziSVF1w
scream.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzyxuEvIHV
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi31iNDDSW2
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ853oAB1hWY

Gasps. Murmurs. Someone drops a goblet.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoUxScU7xZ
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzKWJgHS4K
And the boy — he just looks at me.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOo7BSWuETr
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdJRHFzop9
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpNUb8qpNl
Those same eyes. Blue and endless.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9Co5txzbb
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkjUDVbuOh
No confusion. No panic.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDsYRiZnJW
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrvruIDdYX
Just that same maddening calm.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKqtsiasV4
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuG4b3RlGM
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2AmvVTRb2
Like he knew I’d say it.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG1pUpTa4L
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GeRbZdiJB
Like this was always supposed to happen.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacdxZF52R8
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hkWvDZutb
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L2mqLSHEu
And standing there, heart about to burst,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsjo8Dcoy3
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsW89XwmzQ
I realize something terrifying.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtkiPJnXrY
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfYOFkxtD1
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEzH6eIJVr
Maybe I didn’t just play the game.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ292EtSucJb
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dIbm4ALyn
Maybe the game’s been playing me.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCR3fs3Yl7
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2w1OI8ddp
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdRzQVk6kS
The silence that followed my scream was so sharp, I could hear my own heartbeat trying to crawl out of my chest.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Yfe6OX9Zq
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tdk5CZN2B
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVtCRvOQcp
Then—132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7LIVWrvxV
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ECzBL7KY9
a murmur.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DLS077cba
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSamap70g4k
Then another.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Pk17MeMl4
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaLjIVHzag
And suddenly the whole courtyard buzzed like a hive of very judgmental bees.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFycqHldNZF
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblFMASLRrR
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ITCzFlYBE
> “Ah, a sibling quarrel, then.”132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsboHIZ1TVc

They said it like it was tea gossip.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VuoA0dJQ0
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4FdE3Eam1
Like Clara’s death was just another headline for tomorrow’s banquet chatter.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIj2jxvp9DS
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJpuYqb3hQ
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ENYqvKoEO
The guards hesitated, looked at one another — and then at me.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXTpufzCqe
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp18QwZQUw
No one moved to grab me.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XvGFWiTE0
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxpewYcReO
Instead, one of them quietly cut the ropes binding him.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmrtJa7LmI
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxN6jHZeZL
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKS9yGSkhV
I just stood there.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvu7kDhBSpy
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYrvUDNEvS
Half-shaking. Half-laughing in disbelief.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCOLJFsQKM
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxYqxX2eZU
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN90fbohKZx
He rose slowly, the faint sunlight catching on his golden hair.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttGB2OBImO
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjchX3w8nre
The blood on his hands looked like ink on silk.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfeoRWakPx
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVwbjTqvrI
His calm didn’t waver.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5q63tvpGa
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRoLz6AEYh
Not once.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUd2tiRzraC
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkB3zAai4T
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRj1KPQOta
And the people… just watched.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9RkVRkGx2
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvKNPZe9xa
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJ0PdXmxnf
Not outrage. Not horror.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsiBEYHejQ
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7alWssOmr
Just detached curiosity.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWA6uFFjM0
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8Zi3SsTeB
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZmDrqaT6L
I wanted to scream again, but all that came out was a small, cracked laugh.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7mmdTl1y1
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtbUiLZ8xl
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbufcfyrwEI

The boy’s eyes found mine then.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDJanhtXga
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEizuB1x9Ys
Blue. Cold. Still.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WwC1D33HX

No anger. No confusion.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7zCaUo3aJ

And then he turned.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nbaW3YjpJ
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXEAgyKa21
Walked away.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZOeESixex

Free.132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UAAkSzeOL
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWBLSHfYKv
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFutqDhd6w
Leaving me there—132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTu1bxbcMn
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisyXSY0TBc
alone, surrounded by murmurs,132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC105l2PCv
132Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0Es1LGyxY
wondering what kind of nightmare lets you take the blame for a murder and still somehow feel like you’re the one being executed.1234 copyright protection128ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGsWx8uO72 尼
