He Hung Up While I Was Burning Alive

When they shoved me into the flames, I fought through the blinding pain to call my brother, Ethan Bennett. Fire licked at my skin, twisting my vision, but the call finally went through.
"What is it now?" He sounded distracted, like he was checking off a guest list.
"Ethan, please, help—" My voice was shattered, choked by the searing heat.
"Can't you just give it a rest for one single day?" he snapped, cutting me off. "Selina and I are getting married this weekend. If you pull another stunt, I swear I'll—"
The call died right as the flames swallowed me whole.
Agony consumed every nerve before my eyes closed for good, his unfinished threat still echoing in my ears.
But the good news is, Ethan... you don't have to swear anymore. Because I was dead.
