The heavy iron door creaked as it swung open, and Rose was roughly dragged into a dimly lit room by two guards. The cold air smelled of rust and oil, and the faint glint of sharp, sinister tools gleamed under the flickering light of an old bulb.

“Elder sister… please, don’t do this! I beg you!” Rose’s voice trembled with desperation, her tear–streaked face twisted in fear.

Standing a few feet away, Lily observed her sister with an expressionless face, her arms crossed over her chest. Though she knew this was merely a scene for the cameras, a flicker of satisfaction stirred within her. Seeing Rose in such a vulnerable, terrified state felt… right. Her heart clenched as memories of her own suffering resurfaced–the unbearable pain, the suffocating smoke, the helplessness.

Clenching her fists tightly, Lily took a slow breath, forcing herself to remain composed. This is just a scene, she reminded herself. But if she could draw even a sliver of real fear from Rose in this fabricated scenario, she wouldn’t stop herself.

It was Lily’s expression that truly chilled her to the bone. The cold hatred in her sister’s eyes was something primal, something terrifyingly real. For a brief moment, Rose forgot this was just a staged scene. In her heart, she felt an unsettling certainty: if this were real, Lily

For a brief moment during that scene, her desire for revenge had consumed her entirely. The thought of Rose burning alive had felt… satisfying. And that scared her. Revenge was a poison,
