Davos Thorne spent thousands of years imprisoned in a lamp until a dying billionaire burned his final wish on a bargain: Davos would marry the man's granddaughter, Alix Vance, for five years in exchange for freedom. The ceremony released him, but the terms required him to operate in the shadows, clearing obstacles so Alix could claim the chief executive seat.
Throughout the arrangement Alix responds with relentless scorn and public humiliation, treating her husband as a tool rather than a partner. With the contract's expiration looming, the genie who orchestrated her rise and the heiress who despises him face the final days of a bond built on coercion and concealed power.
