The moment my biological brother shot me through the skull, I felt no hatred—only utter absurdity. He killed me not because I betrayed our family, but because his most cherished possession—the adopted sister Bianca, our family's “holy maiden”—had become “allergic” to my words. She was born with a divine gift: any lie caused her excruciating pain, hives, and shock.

So when the gunshot rang out beside my ear, I felt no surprise. But when I opened my eyes, I found myself back on the very first day I was reclaimed by the family. This time, I knew the rules of the game.
