Alina looked at her mother’s livid expression, then shifted her gaze to Viola, who was half–hiding behind her. A faint look of satisfaction flickered behind Viola’s eyes.

Alina said nothing. She turned and walked calmly toward the side wing of the estate. Her steps led her straight to the family chapel.

The thick wooden doors shut behind her, sealing off every bit of noise from the outside world.

Inside, the chapel was dim and still. The candles flickered low, casting long shadows across the polished plaques lining the walls. The air felt cold and sterile, like the Guzmans‘ ancestors were watching in judgment.

Alina stepped forward and knelt at the cushion.

Her posture stayed perfect. Her back didn’t bend. Not even a little.

The chill from the stone floor seeped up through the cushion and clawed its way into her bones.

She stayed there for the entire night.

Mary’s temper cooled slightly as time passed, but her pride kept her from caving. Instead, she sent the housekeeper twice to check on Alina behind closed doors.

Viola, meanwhile, pretended to plead for mercy–twice. Mary, feigning tenderness, brushed her off with a shake of her head. Viola didn’t look disappointed. She looked thrilled.

By dawn, the chapel door eased open.

Viola stepped in on thick carpet, quiet as a cat. Her face had been treated. The swelling had faded some, but the outline of Alina’s hand still lingered.

She knelt down in front of Alina with a glass of water in her hand. Her voice was soft, gentle, but her eyes gave her away.

“Alina, you must be exhausted. You were kneeling all night. Here, have some water. Mom just lost her temper. Don’t hold it against her. She was just trying to defend me.”

Alina didn’t move. She didn’t even look at her. Her voice was low and scratchy, but every word cut clean. “Charlotte, are you done pretending?”

Viola blinked fast and tilted her head, giving her best wounded expression. “What are you saying? I don’t understand.”

“I’m not your sister.”

Alina raised her eyes slowly. They were sharp. Clear. Identical to Angus’s. The chill in her stare didn’t just sting–it stabbed. “You used some disgusting trick to sneak your way into this family. You really thought you had the right to call me your sister?”

A heavy thud slammed through Viola’s skull.

Her skin turned white. Her pupils tightened in horror.

The glass in her hand dropped and shattered on the stone floor. The sharp crack echoed through the chapel.

“You… What are you talking about?!”

Her voice went high and shrill. Her body trembled. She looked around in a panic like she expected someone to burst in. “Thad a DNA test! I’m their daughter! You can’t just say that!”

“DNA test?” Alina gave a cold smirk. Her lips barely moved. “DNA tests can be done more than once. You really believed your little performance would hold up forever?”

She stood up. Her knees felt like they were being stabbed by needles, but her body stayed firm. Each step she took toward Viola made the girl flinch harder.

“You’re a Kain. Born and raised in Riverdale,” Alina said flatly. “You want me to start listing off what you did there? Trying to hire a hitman? Cheating on the SATS? Or maybe you want me to talk about your actual parents–the ones you’ve been hiding?”

Viola’s legs buckled. She dropped halfway to the floor. Her hand shot out, gripping the altar for balance. Her nails dug deep into the polished wood. Her voice was barely more than a whisper. “How do you know this… Did you investigate me?!**

“I didn’t need to.” Alina looked down at her with zero restraint. Her disgust was loud and clear. “From the second you walked into this house, everything about you screamed fraud. The way you talked. The way you carried yourself. That desperate need to be liked. And all that guilt you kept trying to bury? You were never convincing.”

Viola shook uncontrollably. Her lips parted, but no words came out.

“You better remember what I said. Stay in line, and maybe I’ll let you keep your spot. But if you try anything again–especially with Noelle–I’ll make sure you find out what real consequences feel like.”

She didn’t bother looking back. Alina turned and walked straight out of the chapel.

Viola collapsed completely. She sat frozen on the floor, her whole body cold. It took a long time before her thoughts started to return.

Alina had known all along.

She knew Viola was an impostor.

But why hadn’t she exposed her? What was she waiting for? Viola couldn’t make sense of it. The more she thought about it, the more terrified she became.
