A privelaged, aimless young man becomes the victim of a centuries-old curse when he is given to the demon prince for purposes unknown.

Down on his luck and penniless, nobleman Octavius Knight struck a bargain with a demon, promising one of his descendants to her in exchange for wealth, power, status, and prosperity. The demon who answered his call was none other than the Queen of Hell herself, and she has her own reasons for granting his request. By providing this fortune for not only Octavius, but generations of his descendants, she breeds a collection of intelligent, strong, and beautiful humans for her son, the heir to the throne, to choose from.

Aaron Knight knew the story his entire life, but never expected that he would be the one chosen, nor did he know what to expect when it happened. Now, he must navigate an unexpected marriage to a flamboyant and excitable demon, and acclimate to his new royal obligations.

Leaving his complacent but comfortable lifestyle behind, he must find a way to rise to the occasion.

After years of living hidden in the castle walls, time and hope began running out for the King and all his servants, who were cursed alongside him.
