Frozen Love
The house she had grown up in, the parents who had loved her—everything was consumed by the flames.
Little Starla curled up in a corner of the balcony, her face streaked with tears, too terrified to move.
At that moment, she thought she was going to die.
But in the next second, Xavier appeared.
He was like a hero descending from the heavens.
He kicked open the door and rushed inside, shielding her with his body, blocking the scorching embers with his back.
“Starla, don’t be scared! I’m here!”
In that instant, in Starla’s eyes, he was just like Spider-Man in the movies—her hero.
