The Demon Queen's Contract

In a world where magic intertwines with reality, a dying human girl named Elara awakens to find herself in a foreign land. The air smells of ancient forests, and the sky is painted with hues she’s never seen before. Before her stands the enigmatic Demon Queen, Seraphina, her eyes as cold as the ice that encases her throne. Seraphina proposes a desperate bargain: a contractual marriage between them. In exchange for Elara’s hand, Seraphina promises to save the crumbling human kingdom from impending doom. Elara, with nothing left to lose, accepts, thrust into a web of intrigue, danger, and forbidden emotions. As they embark on their perilous adventure, Elara discovers that Seraphina’s icy demeanor hides a tragic past. The Demon Queen’s power is unmatched, her wrath swift and merciless. Yet, beneath the frost, Elara glimpses vulnerability—a longing for connection that defies her ruthless reputation.

You're not getting away

The next morning, I awoke to the soft light of dawn filtering through the curtains. Seraphina was still nestled against me, her breathing slow and even. I watched her for a moment, marveling at how peaceful she looked, before gently brushing a strand of hair from her face. She stirred, her eyes fluttering open.

"Good morning," I whispered, leaning in to kiss her forehead.

"Good morning," she replied with a sleepy smile. "Did you sleep well?"

"Very well," I said, my heart swelling with affection for her. "But we should probably get up. We have a lot to do today."

Reluctantly, we untangled ourselves and climbed out of bed. After a quick stretch, we headed to the bathroom for a shower. The warm water cascaded over us, washing away the remnants of sleep. We took our time, enjoying the feeling of being close to each other, sharing quiet moments of intimacy.
