A witch seeking vengeance finds herself bound in a marriage of convenience to a powerful gargoyle, only to develop unexpected feelings for the demon sworn to protect her. Elara, a witch driven by a desire for retribution against her father, enters into a strategic marriage that promises her the means to achieve her goals. However, her carefully constructed plan becomes complicated by the presence of a demon tasked with her safety, who she finds herself growing to care for. The narrative explores the complexities of this unconventional arrangement, navigating the emotional landscape between duty, desire, and the blurred lines of affection within a world of supernatural beings.

The premise suggests a narrative rich with supernatural elements and romantic tension, focusing on a unique love triangle where the protagonist develops feelings for her protector. The 'marriage of convenience' trope combined with a 'monster romance' theme indicates a story that explores forbidden desires and the blurring of lines between duty and affection. The explicit mention of 'no choosing' implies a polyamorous or open-ended romantic resolution, catering to readers who enjoy such relationship dynamics. The connection to a previous book, 'Hoarded by the Dragon,' suggests a shared world or thematic continuity within the author's work.
