Now she's nursing a bite wound and counting down the days to the next full moon.She has one chance at a cure. One chance to get her bullies out of her life forever. There's just one catch: the price may be the life of an innocent girl.This short story is 10,000 words long. It is also available in Lonely Streets, an urban fantasy short story collection.
