All I wanted was to turn into a monster in peace. I should have known better. The party guests are running wild, Odile’s looking for any excuse to torment me, and Rothbart claims I owe him a dance. Dodging them all is getting exhausting, and the night hasn’t even begun. Armed solely with my dagger, only one thing is certain… Tonight will be a waltz to remember. A Waltz to Remember is a 3.6k word prequel to Dragon Lake: A Swan Lake Retelling, though the story can also be read on its own. Containing adult language and mild violence, this is a tale intended for readers who prefer their heroines spirited and unapologetic.
