In this world monsters reign supreme. Humans were lesser creatures, made to work in the house and to the will of their masters, husbands, or any monster in general. A class system that separated and controlled humans. They couldn’t even walk on the streets alone. They weren’t allowed to.

A monster had just purchased… me your ‘husband’.

I reluctantly walked down the aisle, dressed in a beautiful white dress. I was going to get married to an abomination. A creature that could kill me km an instant. Even now I get the other beasts stares.. their gaze on me as if I were nothing but a piece of meat.

If my ‘husband’ allowed it I’d be devoured right here. Damn it all.

The monstrous priest spoke the sacred words.. making sure to add in our clear master slave relationship between vows.

“And do you take them as your loving spouse till death due you part?”

I pursed my lips together, biting the inside of my lip till it bled. Shit.

“… I do.”

It took all my effort not to stutter or even tremble.
