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.

The Demon Queen's Contract

The morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room. Seraphina and I woke up slowly, the memory of our intense night still fresh in our minds. We lingered in bed for a few moments, enjoying the quiet intimacy before the reality of our situation set in.

"We need to find out who attacked us," Seraphina said, her voice serious as she got out of bed and started to dress. "We can't let them get away with this."

I nodded, feeling a sense of determination rise within me. "Agreed. We need to be careful, though. Whoever they are, they're powerful and dangerous."

Seraphina and I quickly got ready, dressing in practical clothing that would allow us to move easily. The castle was eerily quiet as we made our way to the main hall. It seemed that the events of the previous day had cast a pall over everyone.
