Phoenix's Fire

I rose from the ashes of their lies.

For most of my life, it was always the three of us. Callah, Meri, and me – Ayla. Three girls growing up among those who called themselves the Righteous – but are actually the furthest thing from it. In desperation, I took a risk. One that let me see the truth.

I rose from the ashes of their lies.

For most of my life, it was always the three of us. Callah, Meri, and me – Ayla. Three girls growing up among those who called themselves the Righteous – but are actually the furthest thing from it. In desperation, I took a risk. One that let me see the truth.
Now my need for revenge is burning inside me.
Meri always tried to be perfect. Obediently, she bent herself to fit the rules, but it was never good enough. She still suffered. Giving up – with nothing left to lose – she tells a single lie.
Little does she know that will light the fuse.
Thankfully, Callah knows how to play the game. I always thought she was the most pious among us, but I was wrong. She learned to manipulate them the same way they tried to do with her.
They tried to tear us apart. They taught us that friendships were wrong, but together we will become stronger than they can imagine. I can’t do this on my own – but I don’t need to. I have them.
Together, we will make sparks fly, but what price will we pay when everything explodes?
