"When is a monster not a monster?
Oh, when you love it."
Ophelia was born to be a hunter like her older sister. But as she was caught fantasizing about monsters by her parents, she gets exiled from the group.
As years past, she is in college debt and is paying rent paycheque by paycheque. So when her sister calls her to make a deal with her old council: a treaty and arrange marriage with a Monster King, she doesn’t hesitate and agrees.
Why?
They will pay off her whole debt.
And she is fascinated by monsters aka Shades.
Shades live in a black and grey realm where there is no colour…. Until….
What Allerick never expected was for his bride to come willingly to him. He will do anything to his kingdom even agreeing to a treaty with his enemies.
The first time he saw her, he can smell the strong smell of “fear” (wink wink).

I really like Ophelia’s character. She is not portrayed as weak or even naive, as many other fmcs…. She is a character I would relate to deeply and many of her actions are what I would have done at her place.
But the funny thing is how cock hungry this girl is. This girl was ready to have it all:
I'd been promised monster fucking, and I wasn't getting any damn monster fucking.
"Knew I was a bit of a horny disaster."
-
I mean I get her because Allerick will have her whole as well…. They both experience kinks that they always wanted to try:
-
I love Damen. I really want to read his book…. :
*“thank you for checking on me, that's very sweet of you"
"I'm not sweet," I countered immediately, worried someone
had overheard.
Damen leaned around Ophelia with a knowing grin on his
face. "You're the sweetest, big brother."
Little shit.*

The sole reason I am giving 4.25 is because of the amount of miscommunication and lack of communication between the main couples..
