Summary:

(This is just a small preview of my story Ashes of Wings. Read it if you choose to. I'll have to admit that I'm no good at summaries :P.)

It's been two years since Ember considered herself to be alive.
Two years since that night where she was able to hold freedom in the palm of her hands, but at a dire price...

Now, after living on her own while striving to survive, what will happen when strangers cross paths, lies become truths, untold secrets become known, and an almost forgotten past resurfaces?

What decisions will she make when everything, including her own life, is put on the line; when all of her skills are put to the test?

With power comes pressure and pain. With life comes uncertainty and fear.

To have anything that she could ever need and more...or to have everything that she could ever truly want.

What will you choose?
