The darkness that consumed Rachel fed off the fear that Lila was feeling. She tried her best to hide it, but even Rachel knew that Lila’s fear was evident. The color had completely drained from her perfect features and as much as she tried to blink them away, Rachel could see the moisture in her eyes.

She wanted to cry.

“It’s been you this whole time…” Lila breathed, still trying to wrap her head around the facts.

Rachel didn’t have to confirm, Lila already knew the truth. Her intuition was telling her the truth. As much as Rachel wanted to go to her friend and comfort her, the darkness wouldn’t allow her. She was consumed by it. She felt all sorts of anger and hopelessness. She gave into the darkness long ago; even before it’s been conjured. She was an easy target for it to take as a vessel. She wasn’t surprised.

“Please say something…” Lila whispered. Rachel could hear the desperation in her voice.

“What is there for me to say?” Rachel asked, her voice emotionless and dry. It made Lila wince; she had never heard Rachel sound this way before and she didn’t like it.

“I want you to tell me it’s not true… that you didn’t kill those people. That you didn’t kill Scott.”

“I didn’t kill Scott,” Rachel quipped. “But I would have if I could. I only framed him. I made him believe he was the one who killed those people.”

A stray tear escaped from Lila’s eye as she stared at Rachel.

“You were the one who sent him to jail…” Lila said h oar sely. “Which means you were the one who killed him.”

Her voice had gone dry and bitter by the end of that sentence. Rachel couldn’t argue or deny those facts, so she remained quiet.

Lila was so wrapped up in her own thoughts, trying to process all that’s been exposed to her, replaying this past week in her mind, trying to figure out how she didn’t see what was right in front of her. She didn’t even notice the door of the bedroom had opened and Raymond, Rachel’s father, was standing behind her.

He was staring directly at the back of her head; his eyes trailing down her narrow back and across the nape of her neck. He held the syringe tightly in his grip as a glimmer of humor spread across his thin lips.

Rachel hadn’t meant to give him this idea, but she did. It was right after he tried to give her the syringe, hours before the banquet.

“Lila is smart, she will be able to see through me a mile away. I won’t be able to stick her with that thing,” Rachel said, refusing to take the syringe.

This angered Raymond, but he had to agree with his daughter. He furiously paced back and forth, knowing that both of their lives were at stake.

But then he paused, and a smile snaked his lips. He looked at Rachel who was pale as a ghost and feeling sick to her stomach.
