Epigraph
The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being harmed.
- Lion Turtle
This story contains themes of: racism, explicit imagery
When a raid on a rising extremist group leaves her as the only surviving witness, she expects freedom. Instead, she is placed under the personal protection of Firelord Zuko. Hidden within the walls of the Fire Nation palace while a dangerous conspiracy unfolds across nations, she becomes the key to stopping an attack that could shatter the fragile peace between the world's leaders. There is only one problem. She has every reason to hate the Fire Nation-especially the man sworn to protect her. As old wounds resurface and danger closes in, the line between resentment and desire begins to blur, forcing them both to confront a truth neither of them is ready for. Some flames destroy. Others demand to be faced.
The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being harmed.

Biva: Quite good for a novella. Impressive writing style and we'll edited. Just one thing- Karla keeps referring herself to a stray cat and while at first it makes sense the analogy gets stale after a while.
