Thorns of Night

Thorns, will they save you or rip apart your soul?
Lillyanna Rose thought she was a normal orphan, until her world was flipped upside down, she finds that her only friend has lied to her for her whole life, that her friend is more like 10012 years old instead of 12 like her, and that her parents aren't dead like she was told they were. Here she is years after that day, only huge trust issues to say about it, still only one friend but she's way more powerful than before. Magic runs in her blood, she commands others as their general, and she's actually starting to trust again, but maybe she shouldn't.
Ashton Black, respected by almost all, the only one is his best friend, Snow Lilly, and she actually gets away with all the disrespect she shows him, with just one smile. How was this so? His heart an unshatterable ice that is somehow suddenly melted when she's around.
With all that may happen in the present why is there so much to think about in the past?
