Story
The story
On the night of her engagement party, Laurel is fitted with a neural-resonance tap that links her nervous system to her sister Cora's failing heart. When Cora's body rejects the donor organ, their parents and Ian insist Laurel must absorb the physical toll, claiming she owes Cora for the distress her return brought on.
Each small cough or spasm from Cora hits Laurel with amplified agony, and the technician's warning of a five-peak safety threshold goes unheeded. As the fifth overload tears through her, Laurel's right leg goes numb and the motor nerve block spreads, yet Ian blocks the nurse from cutting the link and her father orders a sedative instead of an ambulance. No one will answer who is truly marrying Ian tonight.
A gown stitched for Laurel now belongs to Cora, and the invitations bear Laurel's name while the portraits show another bride.
