Mated to the Monster Under my Bed

The Monster under her bed isn’t leaving until she moans his name…

Hi, I’m Danni. I came to Hidden Hollow with nothing—no husband, no magic, no hope. Just a middle-aged widow clinging to a dead life and an eviction notice. Then I found a key. And a door to a town where it’s always autumn, the air smells like cinnamon and leaves, and magic isn’t just real—it’s waiting for me to claim it.

Hi, I’m Danni. I came to Hidden Hollow with nothing—no husband, no magic, no hope. Just a middle-aged widow clinging to a dead life and an eviction notice. Then I found a key. And a door to a town where it’s always autumn, the air smells like cinnamon and leaves, and magic isn’t just real—it’s waiting for me to claim it.

Now I have a cottage of my own, new friends, and the stirrings of power I never knew I had. But there’s something else waiting for me too… A Monster.

Shadow used to live under my bed when I was a scared little girl. Now he’s massive, growly, and very real—at least at night. He says he was born of my magic, shaped by my need, and he’s never stopped watching over me. Loving me. Wanting me.

And if I’m brave enough to love him back—to let him claim me in every way—he might become real for good. But something dark is rising beyond the edges of Hidden Hollow, and the town’s protective magic is starting to fray. If I want to save the place that’s finally started to feel like home, I’ll have to stop hiding from my power. And surrender to the monster who’s always belonged to me. Because in Hidden Hollow…anything is possible.
