Blowing Things Up by Kitty Thomas

“I can’t stand the thought that I make her unsafe, that my very existence somehow puts her at risk. I need to make her safe. I need to keep her with me forever.”
Mina, my dark phoenix rising from the ashes, the goddess returning from her descent into the underworld.
I will kill anyone who dares to threaten her.
But what if I’m the one who breaks her this time? What if I become her angel of death?
