"Anyone ever tell you, you shouldn't play with fire?" Griffin
I've spent the last eight years in prison.
So much has changed.
Including her.
She was just a teenager when I left, but now, I can't take my eyes off her.
She's not the kid I knew.
She's a woman.
A woman I want kneeling before me. Astera
I know pain better than anyone.
My entire life, I've suffered.
My parents never wanted me, my grandmother hates me, and the only man I've ever loved is gone forever.
His death has haunted me for years.
I've closed my heart off, scared to have it broken again.
But when his mentor, Griffin, comes back into my life, I'm reminded how good it feels to let someone in.
