Touching Fire

There are only three things in life that are certain. Water is wet, everything that lives will die, and fire will always burn. For Lanelle Grayson, its that third certainty in life that she embraces.

It was the fire that drew her in. Consumed her. Pleased her. However, when one touches fire, the fire touches you back.
