Too Late to Kneel, My Fire Made You

Ten years ago, Aurora—an immortal phoenix—burned away her own flame to save three orphans frozen by the Frost Wraith, splitting her fire among them to keep them alive. They swore to bond with her, but betrayed and tormented her after falling for a fox-demon’s lies, never knowing that only bonding with her could keep them from freezing to death. Heartbroken, Aurora accepts the proposal of Kane, the strongest man alive, and leaves forever. Kneel and freeze into ice, you fools—her will is not to be defied.
