Ice Candles

If you created a new species, would you even know?
That's what happened when she brought a candle and placed it on a branch of The Kind Tree, where black ice lurked. They were created. They - icy people with fiery passions - lived in secrecy, hoping that they'd never be found by outrageous humans or that their candles would never suffer the scratch of outrageous wolves.
But she had questions to be answered. Where did this child come from? Why did he appear in her back yard? What was the reason for constant wolf attacks on her adopted son?
Much after she dealt with her own issues, Fieria and Isay dealt with the dangers of their own daughter being born half-fire, half-wolf.
In this story, it is true that ice can burn others, and fire can freeze our souls.
