His fiery red hair matching Kira's makes him stand out far more than his arrogant attitude. But what draws her in the most is the same symbol she wears around her neck tattooed on his arm. It connects them to a world thought long extinct, a world where Kira can finally be herself. However to be herself risks destroying everything. ____ If you are reading this anywhere but Wattpad.com, it was stolen. Please visit wattpad to support the original author.

Even worse, Ash seems determined to become the bad boy everyone thinks he is. All hope is lost until I stumble upon a secret that sheds light on the past.
