Four years ago, Dimitri left Rose after telling her that his love had faded, leaving her completely broken. Now, Rose and Lissa have graduated from Lehigh and are living at Court. Tatiana is preparing for Lissa to be queen, and with wedding bells ringing, familiar faces returning and looming threats outside the wards, things won't stay normal for long.

Rose doesn't like combat instructor, Guardian Belikov. She certainly doesn't appreciate his teaching methods or cruel punishments! What happens when her current punishment requires Rose to spend one-on-one time with hard-ass Belikov? This is a reimagining of VA with slightly different plot lines and twists, including your favourite (and not so favourite) characters from the series!
