Princess Elora Adhelina Galterius has been told her whole life that she is the monster in the story. Cursed to be a dragon and exiled after she maimed her brother, the future King of Albaria. Her gift to shift into a dragon, though, never felt like a curse, even after it led to her killing eleven knights to hide her secret. It was her or them, after all.
All this changed, though, with the arrival of the twelfth knight-Sir Percival Alderius. It had been ten years since she was exiled by her parents to the far-off mountain hamlet of Greydenn. Ten years since Elora had seen Percy. Percy is determined to save her from the dragon, not knowing he has actually been sent to kill her. Hiding her true identity from all those she loves the most becomes almost impossible with Percy's arrival and she must make a choice-give up the dragon or embrace her role in the story. The line between Princess and Monster becomes more convoluted with each decision she is forced to make as she embarks on a journey she never once envisioned.
