Piano keys were her childhood, but the grasp of a pistol was her reality. Polish SOE Agent, Natia Filipska, has lurked among the rubble and the shadows of her occupied-Warsaw for years, ever since the war started and ripped her from the life that had guaranteed happiness and opportunity. The SOE took her in, as well as her two siblings, Klimeck and Ryzshard, arming them with a fighting spirit, and a chance at survival, at a life where they could avenge the ones that were taken. Being apart of the Cichociemni came next, Elite Polish Paratroopers, and it was their ticket home. Ever since her feet had then touched the ground, she had been fighting with her home and her people - the Polish Home Army. The Warsaw Uprising got her captured, and then being on the run nearly got her killed - her only ally was the pistol at her side. The Dutch Resistance of Eindhoven, Holland housed her, but it would never be her home.
Upon liberation though, her path crossed with an Airborne Infantry - the 101st Airborne Division - the Screaming Eagles - American men. To ensure her safety back to Warsaw, Poland and her family, Easy Company and their men might be her only hope. But hope was lost long ago.

Book 1~The Taste Of Death
**
She lived a simple life in District 14.
In a cold and barren and desolate land.
Where the only thing that lived well were desperate thoughts of survival.
It wasn't her name that was Reaped,
And yet,
It was her that had volunteered.
Not out of love but because of obligation.
And with her fate all but written in stone,
She dared to enter the Arena, wicked and bold.
She dared to defy all odds and expectations.
It was in the Arena, that she had her first taste of death.
With a smirk upon her lips, she laughed at the blood split by her hands.
Scarlet Wolfe had done the impossible.
She had won.
And yet,
Instead of freedom, she had been given a gilded cage.
Instead of freedom, she had been forced to hide behind a mask.
Instead of freedom, she had become a pawn to the powerful.
They expected her to fall in line.
But she had never played by anyone's rules before,
And she wasn't going to start now.
But,
What would one do to control the uncontrollable?
**
