I was an artist until someone stole me from my home. Was it my vain sister or weaselly brother, seeking my money, my slimy uncle, or someone else? But I have more pressing things to worry about than how I found myself in this mess. A new gladiator, a terrifying monster with horns, claws, and a lashing tail, has entered the games. He’s just defeated the former champion, and I’m to be the human he claims. Previously published under the pen name L.V. Lane
