The Last Match Burns the Brightest

Summary

Before Grandpa passed, he left behind two things: a billion-dollar fortune and three matches.

He said, "Each of you gets to pick one. Renee, you're the oldest, so you go first."

I did not hesitate for even a second and chose the fortune. That left my adopted sister, Vera Gallagher, with nothing but three matches.

What none of us could have known was that those three matches were no ordinary matches. Each one, when lit, could make any wish come true.

Vera resented our parents for favoring me, so she immediately cursed them a terrible death.
