Hellspawn Housewives

He wished for an early retirement. He got a curse to break, and a maid who watches him sleep.

With his seer powers fading, Gerald left the guild and bought a cottage in a far-off town. He didn’t expect to find a demon in a maid’s dress, bound to the house and eager to please.

Now his days are spent fending off her dreadful cooking, keeping the wine out of reach, and admiring how her tail lifts her skirt at the washbasin. Meanwhile, he wonders why the local lord sold him a home with sultry baggage, and how to set her free from the walls that bind her.

The townsfolk are another story. Every trip brings back pastries, gossip, and enough beer to topple a troll. One day he’s dodging proposals at the market, the next he’s slaying monsters in the lighthouse to clear his head.

It’s no coincidence an ex-demon hunter’s new home came with a demon thrown in. The lord who sold the cottage is hiding the truth, and freeing her may unearth skeletons they’d all rather keep buried.

As Gerald inches closer to breaking her bonds, the two of them grow closer too. But how will she react when she learns he once made his living killing her kind?
