One was made to survive-with fists, with fire, with no one but herself. The other lived with his heart wide open, never knowing the kind of storm love could bring. She was born of fire. He was made of light. She doesn't know fear. She doesn't know safety. She only knows how to fight, how to run, how to keep breathing when the world wants her gone. And then- She meets him. Soft where she is steel. Steady where she is chaos. And somehow, without asking, he becomes the only thing that feels real. She was never meant to love. But love doesn't wait for permission. It strikes like lightning. Burns like truth. And the fire inside her-the one no one ever tamed- It remembers him. This is not a gentle story. It's a story of scars and sparks. Of two souls crashing through fate to find each other. Of a girl who carries fire in her bones, and the boy who sees past the flames to the heart she never knew she had. Because sometimes, the greatest strength isn't in how fiercely you fight- but in who you choose to hold on to when everything's burning.
