Once upon a time there was a cruel tyrant who desperately craved a cold girl.

He always took whatever he wanted. She surrendered herself with an equal desire, even though she loved the boyfriend she brought home from Ba Sing Se.

Today was her wedding. She gazed at her reflection and remembered her first time, which was not with Zuko; it was with his father.

Mai was desperate to forget that dark hunger and love Zuko.

She slowly stood up.

Mai regretted nothing and she wasn't going to start now.

Still, she desperately wished she could forget that passionate night.
