Just a warlock. Standing in front of a demon girl. Wondering how to avoid her.

Untenured philosophy lecturer with a side gig owning a bar—it doesn’t shout chaos, does it?

I liked hiding. With powers as weak as mine, staying under the radar just made sense.

One wrong fight in my bar, and magic I didn’t even know I had kicked in, bonding me to Kara—a not-a-succubus demon with a fast whip, faster tongue, and zero interest in me. The feeling’s mutual.

Turns out our little accident set off a supernatural chain reaction and brought half the city’s power players down on us.
Now we’re stuck with each other. Hunted by factions eager to exploit us—or erase us.

I didn’t ask for this, and neither did she. But the truth of what binds us will shake the world—it’s already put a target on our backs.

It’s not love. It’s survival. With attitude.
