Vivienne
Nobody moved after Clarissa's words.
The video continued playing.
My heart hammered so hard I could barely hear anything else.
Clarissa smiled at the camera.
The same smile I had trusted for years.
The same smile that haunted my memories after my death.
Except now there was something different about it.
Confidence.
Like she finally didn't have to pretend anymore.
"You look confused."
Her eyes seemed fixed on me through the screen.
"You should be."
Roman moved closer beside me.
His hand settled on my lower back.
Grounding me.
Keeping me steady.
Clarissa folded her arms.
"Everyone keeps asking the wrong questions."
The room remained silent.
"You're all focused on who stole what."
She laughed softly.
"When you should be asking who survived."
A chill ran through
