It's cute to read about how fondly Dimitri has thought of Rose from the very beginning, but when you really think about it, it kind of takes away from the story as we know it from the primary series. I mean, I always thought Dimitri fell for Rose after at least getting to know her more, instead of it being more like insta-love. And I just feel like it would have been better if it had remained the former.
Also, it feels so unlike Dimitri to be wholly focused on this random girl's (which Rose was for him at that point in time) beauty and fierceness when in battle with her to save the princess.. Like, dude, come on.
In the end, this quick story doesn't add much to the series as it's so incredibly short, but I did enjoy the read.
