Once the doors of the limo swung open, the sight inside hit Lena like a physical blow.She barely had time to register the leather seats, the dim ambient lighting, the expensive stillness of the car before her stomach lurched violently. She doubled over, retching onto the pavement. Fish chips. Acid. Everything she’d eaten. Her body emptied itself in ugly, uncontrollable heaves, her hands braced weakly against the curb.No one rushed to help her.No one apologized.“C’mon,” Richard laughed lightly from inside the car, as if she were being dramatic over spilled wine. “We don’t have all night.”Lena wiped her mouth with the back of her trembling hand and lifted her head.That was when she really looked.Her vision swam, tears blurring the edges, but the shape was unmistakable. A woman sat inside the limo, spine straight, hands folded neatly in her lap. Her hair was darker than Lena remembered, styled simply, but the face—God.It was like looking into a distorted mirror.

Lena followed beside Damon, wrapped briefly in his arms when they crossed the threshold back into the auditorium, her body still trembling as if the cold from the abandoned yard had lodged itself in her bones.The doors opened.And the room erupted.The ruckus hit them like a physical force—voices overlapping, chairs scraping, the brittle sound of disbelief cracking through silk and crystal. It was the same elegant chaos they’d left behind, but transformed now into something raw and uncontained.Gasps rippled outward as they passed.“There’s two of them?”“Nonsense. How could there be two?”“Are they sisters?”“Twins.”The whispers weren’t whispers at all. They chased Amara’s back, clung to Lena’s silhouette, bounced off the chandeliers like echoes refu
