Married To A Monster

With no mother, father, or brother to protect her, Adelaide was forced by her fellow villagers to become a sacrificial bride to appease the undying monster that lives in the manor hidden deep in the woods

Every few years, unwanted, unloved, and abused girls who were of age were sent to the monster, never to be seen or heard of again. Marrying the monster was a death sentence.

But in her desperation to live, Adelaide piques his interest, by doing something the others have never done before.

" Six months," he said to her lazily as he reclined on the chaise. "You have six months to convince me. Otherwise, I will kill you. Now, little Dove, begin."
